So far I can record Smackdown and just fast forward to AJ Styles bits.

 

[Kuroyume]

I'm just happy KO and Jericho weren't split. And they kept Cesaro too. Shame about Sami and the Miz, but KO vs Sami was getting old anyway.

 

[Hidden One]

AJ Styles lost big time tonight. My boy lost the Club and is doomed to get pinned by Cena, Orton and Ambrose for the next year.

Vince always does get the final fuck you.

 

[Sephzilla]

Dillinger deserves a shot. He's managed to get a gimmick and get it over despite having zero openings to do so via booking.

I'd be okay with this!

 

[styl3s]

I don't think SD is nearly as doom and gloom as most think apparently, but it's clear Raw has the stronger roster, which should surprise no one.

SD went from a show i would DVR and watch when i had time to i will just youtube whatever AJ did that week and save room on my DVR

 

[kirblar]

Not just the better roster, but also has the Women's and Tag titles. Like what are Alpha or Becky meant to wrestle for on SD?

Smackdown PPV = Smackdown Challenger for inter-show titles, most likely.

 

[Aiii]

Is this a Marcus Cor Von reference?

I have no idea who this is.

It was a reference to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCe6e23yIT8

 

[Simply Sami]

Not just the better roster, but also has the Women's and Tag titles. Like what are Alpha or Becky meant to wrestle for on SD?

It's better if champions can appear on both brands. Feud on one brand for a month and the other brand month after.

 

[SquashMatch]

Cannot express how pissed off I am about the Smackdown roster. Obvious that Vince doesn't give two shits about the show.

 

[KissVibes]

Is Luke Harper leaving WWE?

Maybe he has to retire?

 

[shanafan]

Did Smackdown also draft the Rock?

 

[Jimmy King]

So, about that logic Liu Kang was talking about earlier...he was working us, right?

he sounds like the sanest one after watching this show

 

[sf2fanatic]

Does this draft deserve a poll on the wrassle thread?

 

[GraveRobberX]

Should have had

Raw:

US
Cruiserweight
WWE Champion

Smackdown:

Intercontinental
Hardcore or TV title with some funny stipulation
Heavyweight Champion

Women's and Tag Team are the 2 titles that have the "privilege" of being on either show
The person(s) holding the title belongs to either Raw or SD, but they will get challenged from both franchises, so they show up double PPV, would build a nice storyline

/dreaming

[Tom Nook]

Is Luke Harper leaving WWE?

If true, damn

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Maybe he has to retire?

How serious was Luke's Injury?

 

[Tagyhag]

Is Luke Harper leaving WWE?

Hope not. Fucking Ryback.

 

[Simply Sami]

I'm just happy KO and Jericho weren't split. And they kept Cesaro too. Shame about Sami and the Miz, but KO vs Sami was getting old anyway.

Sami is on the same brand as Owens.

 

[Toki767]

Hope not. Fucking Ryback.

He got injured in a match with Roman Reigns though.

 

[serenewarfare]

Cannot express how pissed off I am about the Smackdown roster. Obvious that Vince doesn't give two shits about the show.

If Vince didn't care, Cena would be on Raw.

 

[Exodust]

SD PPV's are going to be a waaaaaaaaaaaaste.

Implying that most PPVs aren't a waste already.

 

[UberTag]

Is Luke Harper leaving WWE?

Maybe he's retiring.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Harper isn't leaving. You guys are ridiculous.

He's injured.

 

[Tagyhag]

He got injured in a match with Roman Reigns though.

Oh I thought it was from that shoulder botch.

Still, fucking Ryback.

 

[Cheat Code]

He got injured in a match with Roman Reigns though.

Tnat's all we need.

More reasons to hate Roman.

 

[darkside31337]

If Vince didn't care, Cena would be on Raw.

Seriously. One show has Cena, Ambrose and AJ. SD has way more star power than Raw.

 

[Simply Sami]

Luke Harper isn't leaving. He said that he is close to coming back in the ring a few days ago and he wants to be champion.

 

[Ultratech]

Atleast TNA has Brocken Matt what does SD have?

¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Broken Matt > SD

Hey, Broken Matt is awesome.

Listening to Josh Matthews attempt to commentate is not awesome, among other LOLTNA things.

 

[Hidden One]

Harper will come back clean shaved and short hair under a new name

 

[LiQuid!]

AJ is FUCKED. He finally had a chance to have a good WWE run to cap off his career and it's been stolen from him. He's going to fester on the SD roster and do fucking nothing with the rest of his career and I'm fucking DEPRESSED about it.

 

[Jimmy King]

Ziggler is not totally bad on the Network right now.

 

[Pupperbabysassy]

Atleast TNA has Brocken Matt what does SD have?

WWE needs to sign the Hardy's.

 

[Sephzilla]

Seriously. One show has Cena, Ambrose and AJ. SD has way more star power than Raw.

SD roster has absolutely no depth

 

[Guzim]

I have no idea who this is.

[NastyBook]

I wish they would treat these brand splits more seriously and introduce brand new belts for them.

Harper interview from last week.

 

[MetatronM]

Guys the draft isn't over yet.
There's still 3 more NXT picks plus the rest of the roster on the network at 10

All of the NXT picks should have been on TV. If you're bringing up new talent, the idea is to build them up as new stars, right? Why would you do that hidden away behind an online paywall?

Seems like that should have been a key focus.

 

[serenewarfare]

AJ is FUCKED. He finally had a chance to have a good WWE run to cap off his career and it's been stolen from him. He's going to fester on the SD roster and do fucking nothing with the rest of his career and I'm fucking DEPRESSED about it.

Yeah, he'll only get to continue a feud with the biggest wrestling star of the past decade.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

I can't get over Owens and Zayn both being on the same roster.

 

[Samus4145]

Nakamura chant? and now We want Bayley

 

[SallyIsNow]

Feel so sorry for AJ and Ambrose. Vince fucked them.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

AJ is FUCKED. He finally had a chance to have a good WWE run to cap off his career and it's been stolen from him. He's going to fester on the SD roster and do fucking nothing with the rest of his career and I'm fucking DEPRESSED about it.

he was in TNA

everything is a step up pal

 

[darkside31337]

SD roster has absolutely no depth

I agree with that but theres still 30 picks left so shrug

 

[Pikma]

The CWC roster, including fucking ShitShit Lun, is better than Smackdown's

 

[UberTag]

AJ is FUCKED. He finally had a chance to have a good WWE run to cap off his career and it's been stolen from him. He's going to fester on the SD roster and do fucking nothing with the rest of his career and I'm fucking DEPRESSED about it.

If he can stay motivated through the rest of 2016, he'll have an altercation with Balor in the Rumble match and they'll square off at Mania.
But it's going to be a long 5 months after he gets buried by Cena at Summerslam.

 

[Toki767]

AJ is FUCKED. He finally had a chance to have a good WWE run to cap off his career and it's been stolen from him. He's going to fester on the SD roster and do fucking nothing with the rest of his career and I'm fucking DEPRESSED about it.

AJ will probably be the Smackdown champion though.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

I wish they would treat these brand splits more seriously and introduce brand new belts for them.

Me too. I'd actually like to see a true split. Rebrand Smackdown to WCW and keep Raw WWE. Run them completely separately. Sadly that will never happen in a billion years.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

"... whenever Roman's not on screen, all the other characters should be asking 'Where's Roman?'"

 

[slightconfuse]

King implying Roman back on the juice
