I expect Ambrose to beat up Ellsworth for mega heel heat and AJ to save him for double turn

but
A) That needs to happen VERY soon if it does because the shelf life on a gimmick like Ellsworth isn't very long
B) That means the AJ/Ambrose feud will continue to drag on

A double turn means we lose heel AJ though. Which I think is a net loss

Remember when Santino almost beat Daniel Bryan for the WHC? I think the tease of a jobber underdog beating the champ is better than him actually becoming champ. Like, the pops when Santino hit the Cobra on Bryan and when Ellsworth hit No Chin Music on Styles were pretty nuts

Yeah the teases are great, like Santino at the Royal Rumble 2011.

Did Ellsworth wrassle on Sunday? I was looking forward to seeing him because you guys are always talking about him, but I don't remember him.

Credit to Santino though, he was a fun IC title belt heel

And Randy Wyatt is the most 'why is this working so well' angle I can think of in recent memory.

I... I enjoy Randy Orton for the first time since his match with Cactus Jack. Randy and Bray are going to be the Luger and Sting of Smackdown. BFFs

I don't see it with AJ/Cena looking to be the big smackdown mania program.

They'd either have to turn AJ again or have a face vs face match, which vince doesn't really like doing

I'm actually in full agreement with you here. I don't understand why this is working but I'm liking it. Maybe it's because Orton is doing something new/different for the first time since his WM25 feud with HHH

It feels so weird and anachronistic, especially since Randy has changed nothing about his gear or look. Not even boiler suit like DBry!

Craziest TV bump of the year from AJ?

https://streamable.com/d3kd

God Vince really must find Ellsworth to be absolutely the height of comedy.




I am, as they say, fired up for this card. Set the alarm bright and early. Can't wait for all the indie sleaze and Kento retaining, setting up his eventual loss to Suzuki in the next few months.

Right?

That AJPW Sumo Hall card is so full of indie sleaze. All it's missing is Hi69.

Almost forgot, the other day Metlz & Alvarez were discussing how the wwf does these horrible promos where people complain that someone doesn't "look" like a champion (bliss to becky, jbl about zayn)

Alvarez made an analogy that it would be like people complaining that Meltz was a journalist because he looks like superman instead of clark kent. couldn't stop laughing

Hmm.

The fact that Randy hasn't changed any of his gear is the best part.

Because he still throws himself in the line of fire, he still works well with the Wyatts Instead of brainwashed guy like Luke or Rowan, Randy's just like bored main event guy that wants to hang out with his bro Bray

I'm pretty sure Shane/Taker and the Womens match were the only matches I cared about going in to Mania last year. Actually....what else even happened last year? I remember Ryder winning the IC title and Reigns getting booed out of the building. Everything else escapes me.

Ellsworth needs to drop down after TLC. Stop having him be there in the main picture and just stick him in the midcard bothering Miz a lot or something. It's funny still, but pretty much every week I see the joke getting just a bit more stale.

i dunno if Hero needs a title, unless this WWN title could become like the NWA World where he'd tour it around the place. Because that's what Hero basically is at the moment, touring world champion of the indies.

If I was them, I would absolutely do Undertaker/Aj at 33, and in the time between 33 and 34 have AJ beat Cena a couple more times including for the title. That way Cena finally conquering AJ is even more special and you can have the WM34 main event be him going for a record breaking 17th run.
