WWE Off-Topic

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Imo Reigns has been the most impressive of all. Obviously recency bias and the fact I never saw a single match during Pedro, Bruno or Backlunds era.

Those guys did those reigns during a completely different era.

It's like comparing accomplishments of today in NBA or NHL to when they first started and there was a fraction of teams we have today and a way different game too.

Reigns doing this when you have weekly tv shows and monthly PLEs and the internet for fans to talk/complain about things, if the pandemic never happened this obviously wouldn't be a thing, and you almost forget a whole year of his run was with no fans.

I would argue the pressure and stakes of being a champion today is way way lower than it was back in the day. As well as the schedule and workload. Back then you had to deliver live houses otherwise you were toast. Now there's zero pressure because they are getting money from TV networks and the Saudis regardless. They were able to push Reigns as a failed babyface for years and years and they still made money because the TV business is where it is. And if you throw in the NWA Ric Flair schedule/role as a comparison, there is no comparison.

That's not to take anything away from the Bloodline story. It has been top tier.

There's rumors of

Spoiler

Orton

Returning.

If that happens, I want them to

Spoiler

Show up and go full Mark Henry.

Maybe he does return right before that for the surprise pop, but the next Raw they say Orton has a career altering announcement. They play "best of Orton" videos all night long, Flair, HHH and others are present, all leading to Orton announcing his retirement due to injury.

Riddle goes in the ring to say thank you and then rko outta nowhere on Riddle!

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Lol I asked Chatgpt to write a promo about Roman reigns kicking USO’s out of the family while introducing new members to the bloodline.

The lights dim. The slow beat of tribal drums fills the arena. As the spotlight falls on the ring, Roman Reigns, flanked by Paul Heyman and Solo Sika, is seen standing tall, his Universal Championship glinting under the intense glare.

Reigns raises the mic to his mouth. His voice, steady and calm, echoes through the packed arena. "The Bloodline," he begins, "is more than a faction. More than a team. It's family. And when family betrays you, there are consequences."

His gaze sweeps across the crowd, piercing as an eagle's. "The Usos," he continues, "my own blood, decided to bite the hand that fed them. They chose their path, sparked a civil war in our family... and for that, they will pay."

Paul Heyman steps forward, the words on his lips as poisonous as a viper's bite. "They thought they could attack Roman, the Tribal Chief, the head of this table, and just walk away? No, that's not how we do things here."

Reigns interjects, his tone turning icy cold. "The Usos turned their backs on us. On our family. And that... that cannot be forgiven."

The crowd roars, but Reigns raises his hand for silence. "So tonight," he announces, "we introduce a new blood to our family. Reinforcements that understand the meaning of loyalty."

With that, a booming entrance theme hits. The crowd gasps as the Gorillas of Destiny - Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa - stride into the arena, the defiant look in their eyes mirroring that of Roman. Their presence, intimidating and relentless, sends shockwaves through the audience.

"They're here because their father proved his loyalty to our family," Reigns announces, his tone unyielding. "They're here to uphold that honor."

As the Gorillas of Destiny join Reigns in the ring, the message is clear. A new chapter for the Bloodline has begun, a reign that promises no mercy for the disloyal. The civil war has ignited a newfound fury, and Roman Reigns, backed by an unbreakable alliance, is ready to reclaim his dominance.

"The Bloodline is stronger than ever," Reigns concludes, a dangerous smile creeping onto his face. "And for the Usos, their exile... it's just the beginning."

As the arena plunges into darkness, the last thing visible is the gleam of Reigns' Championship - a stark reminder of the power he wields and the retribution that awaits those who dare to cross the Bloodline.

I'd love to see them in WWE and be introduced into the Bloodline storyline, even Jacob Fatu would be a great addition if he didn't sign long term with MLW.

WWE announces Jackie Redmond will be a backstage interviewer on Raw alongside Byron.

Smackdown gets Kathy and Kayla.

Now find the next McAfee like commentator and we'll be fine. My vote is for Big E.

Yea, I’m not much for fantasy booking (i leave that to the games) but a survivor series war games match up featuring Uso’s, Sami & KO (insert wrestler) vs Roman, Solo, GoD and Jacob Fatu would be fire. However, I do feel like Solo and Jacob are kind of redundant.

Got this from Reddit, someone who has a friend who works for the airline WWE is flying on to the UK was able to get this picture.

All I'm going to say.... all three members of Imperium are 100% photogenic. The Plane Ride Made In Heaven?

All I'm going to say.... didn't these guys learn anything about how to properly conduct themselves on an airplane? Get Ric Flair back to the PC immediately and teach them how it's done... *Sarcasm*

Ehhhh, Riddle is right there. Sure to be some fun chaos with the stories I've heard on him, lol.

Instead of overdosing and being exposed and fighting, people are probably playing cards or Switch or watching movies. Such a simpler time.

It's gonna be a sad day when Samantha leaves WWE which probably won't be too much longer. She's far too talented an individual for superstardom to not come claim her sooner or later.

Seth Rollins comparing UK Food vs US Food. Got to love the kayfabe commitment to hating Logan Paul and having to admit as much he doesn't want to that Prime is good drink.

This Undertaker/Mick Foley sit down where they are re-watching their infamous Hell In A Cell Match is a great video.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Droz passed away.

When you see injuries like Tyson Kidd and Big E, they're so lucky they didn't end up like Droz or worse. Only fortunate thing for Droz was that he was still able to live a life after, even if it wasn't a normal one.

To this day the only footage of his career ending injury was in WWEs "don't try this at home" ad when paramedics and refs were in the ring with him on a stretcher. People often mistook that clip thinking it was Owen (which I'd imagine was eerily similar to Droz in terms of the amount of panic from everyone, and Drozs injury happened just months after Owen died).
