Bryan has a great wrestling mind. Shame they won't use him.
I'll still watch him wherever he goes.

lol why would Foley and Bryan have any creative
And the whole thing is a work, everybody knows where they're going

I like the current theme, but if they want to give the impression that Smackdown matters now, a revamp of the set and everything would help.

The Yes Movement will make sure Bryan gets his creative control, even if he doesn't have it at the start.

If they get a new set, it'll be similar to now where they use it for both shows.
I like how you formulated that thought. Means you already know it'll be the same as always. A+

That defeats the purpose. They are separate brands now and should have a different look beyond colour and logo.

Live event costs + production logistics would likely prevent them from doing that. You want a stage that is extremely easy to set up and takes very little time to do so. Having two distinct sets fucks that up.
Because Bryan knows a lot about wrestling and his input would probably be valuable.

Change takes time. After Battleground we might see some new sets.
It might take awhile for the booking and such to change, but give it a few months... say up to Mania. Then we'll get a better picture. If it's not any good by then, well... There's the RAW after WrestleMania. That's where they really shake things up tbh. And soon after that we'll have another draft. And if progress isn't made by then, we'll just have to wait till Mania... Because then there's the RAW After Mania. And not long after that there will be another draft.

No they must be separate and unique or all hope will be lost
BRING BACK THE BIG FIST!

He knows nothing about creative and if they want that for him, they need to ease him in
Nope Rhyno killed it that along with Jericho
Bryan can't possibly know more about wrestling than a McMahon and Hollywood writers.

I want someone to legit have a freak-out like this. Erick Rowan will finally shoot!

I'm seeing far too many tweets saying there are rumours that Bayley isn't being called up. And she's tweeted an entrance photo with the draft hashtag, which makes me even more worried for her.
But, Bronson, how I am supposed to enjoy the next SmackDown! game if there's no way for me to last ride my opponent from the top of a big fist?
Bryan wanted to be a champ, that proves that he knows nothing about wrestling
Everyone knows that he was a B+ player
Why draft Bayley when you can get Nia "related to Rock" Jax?
One way or another, she'll be Sasha's partner on Sunday.

Vegan God Bryan will save us. The man is a star of Total Divas and soon to be the star of Total Bellas! He has everything!

Makes sense. How else do you explain the continued trend of awfulness in the Pro Wrestling community on GAF?
I really can't see why they would do that
There's nothing for her on NXT right now

Did you say unique?!
The draft had created one of my favorite moments from Smackdown

FYI they have "absolutely zero" creative control
We got some breaking news coming from Worcester's airport

If MVP comes back, I'll mark out. He was great back then with Matt Hardy.

No idea. Somebody who tweeted Meltzer saying they heard that (and in another tweet based on deciphering some cryptic tweet? I dunno) and Meltzer said, It's possible.
Jimmy King
Member
"Zero" that's what management thought of Bryan's potential when they brought him in. As always #ThingsChange #NewEra #YesMovement #Fist

Makes perfect sense. But then it also makes sense for Sasha to bring in Nia Jax, her own "protege" or some such nonsense.

Meltzer says he has a feeling Joey Samoey isn't getting drafted tonight. Interesting.
I'm afraid I have some bad news...
The reason I am so hyped for this draft is because its the embodiment of what I like the most about wrestling, which is the backstage politics.
The most interesting thing for me is how they make decisions on who gets to be the top guy, who gets to win, etc. Tonight we get to see how they rank this roster based off who they pick.
Quite honestly, I hope there isnt a single match tonight. Only a draft.

here's my proof

exhibit b:
100% chance that Kurt Angle returns tonight. 100% chance that HHH and Kurt have been working us since the Arnold classic.

Did someone say fist?

Oh man if Nia was called up as a face...now there's an idea!
She and Eva can reunite as the ultimate female face team
Maybe they'll leave Joey Samoey as the big star so they can bring Nakamerica without causing a major impact to NXT.
They tried to debut her as a face on NXT and it failed lol

Sounds like an improvement over what they already have

NXT will be fine without either of them, but maybe Joe wants a nice light schedule?
That'd be nice, but no way jose.
I feel like Angle and the Hardyz will retire in the WWE. But today is not the day.
