Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
Tell me what babyface has ever been sour about losing a match due to his own stupidity then commits attempted murder?

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
If only things were that simple. Pretty sure Reigns will show up on Raw, shrug it off, Braun will look pissed, and they will go at it again. Doubt the announcers frame it any different than just a crazy fight.
If you have to guess whether something was a heel/face turn, it probably wasn't.Last edited by dubcity; 07-09-2017, 10:32 PM.Comment

I thought it was a B, B+. Sure there we're was a dud in Seth vs Bray. Cass and Enzo was average, could hear an argument for it being a dud. The IC title match was average. And I thought everything else on the main card was above average. And I'm not including that time filler between Slater and Hawkins in my review.
Edit:
If that was anyone but Roman, Cena (now) would we really be guessing if that was a heel turn? Roman is a special case because we have been told that he is Vince's next face of the company. If we didn't know that would we really be guessing if that was a heel turn or not? Of course we wouldn't.

Is Sam Roberts pretending NXT doesn't exist?

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
When you take in to consideration the state of the business today and how often there is a PPV, I thought it was a solid show. I'd give it a B. I don't know that any of the storylines have been resolved, which sucks for Summerslam's sake, but that's the reality of WWE in 2017.
As for the Reigns thing, I consider that more of Reigns trying to be a Stone Cold-esque badass than a heel turnComment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
It gets worse if I take into account the state of the business today. I'll give the show a B if I'm comparing exclusively against other Raw events. It drops to a C if I start accounting for Smackdown events. NXT slams it firmly to an F, and it goes off the radar once I include nearly any overseas promotion of any note right now.
You're right about the second thing. They're not turning Reigns with this.There are two types of people on OS: Those who disagree with me, and those who agree.

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
Was this another PPV where almost every match was won by a heel again?Comment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
It seemed like a classic double - turn to me. Or is the WWE going to tell us that faces attempt vehicular manslaughter?
It really is the only logical way to go with all this but I wouldn't be shocked if it isn't a full heel turn.

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
Rollins vs Bray Wyatt was solid and I'm happy that Bray won. I'm guessing this won't be the end of the feud.
Big Cass vs Enzo: Good promo by Enzo and the match was what it should have been with Cass dominating and Enzo getting a couple of spots in.
Tag team title match: A fun 30 minute iron man match with the right team winning. I hope this means that the Revival are next in line for a title shot.
Sasha Banks vs Alexia Bless: Goid fun match that will continue on. I'm ready for more of these two.
Miz vs Dean Ambrose: Ok match glad Miz won just hope this is the end of the feud.
Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman: Really fun brawl and it was nice to see Braun win. Seeing Roman attempting to kill Braun was odd and I'm assuming that they will have one final match at Summerslam.
Heath Slate beat Curt Hawkins.
Samoa Joe vs Brock Lesnar: Should have been 20 minutes but the 10 we got was fun and it should not have taken only one F5. I want more of this at Summerslam with Joe winning the title.
Overall fun show and I would give it a B.MLB: Chicago Cubs
NFL: San Diego Chargers
NHL: Chicago Blackhawks
NBA: Chicago Bulls
NCAA: Iowa HawkeyesComment

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread
I'm willing to give this PPV a bit of a pass in that it's basically just there to help set up Summerslam.
Bray v Seth was decent I guess but I'm just kind of bored by that matchup.
Enzo v Cass went like it should have. I think it could be a really good feud with Enzo trying to find ways to get the best of Cass leading up to Summerslam.
Tag Match was really good and fun. Glad Cesaro and Sheamus won. Hopefully they move on to another team like someone said. Only match that felt like the end of a feud.
Sasha v Alexa deserve a spot at Summerslam so I'm glad it ended the way it did and I hope we get a long match from them.
Miz vs Dean. Yawn. Two entertaining characters who aren't entertaining in the ring. At least Miz can tell a story. Ambrose is bathroom break material when he wrestles. I want Miz to move on but I'm afraid he's stuck with Dean.
Reigns vs Strowman was great. Told a good story. It seems like a double turn but I feel like that was an accident. I'm 99% sure there will be zero character change tonight on Raw.
Brock v Joe screams Summerslam main event to me where hopefully we get the 15-20 war everyone has been hoping for.
