WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

The explanation made more sense than a jealousy story would've, so I'm alright with it. Still don't think it's great, but it's not terrible.



Jey just leaving is something new for the story though, so I'm interested in seeing how it keeps rolling from here.

The bar is so high for Bloodline that I think people expect every single moment to be a classic. That's a good and bad problem to have.

And the rumored match at Payback...once people see that happen it'll really add another level to this story.

Is there even any reason to doubt this Bloodline story is even leading to the Usos splitting? Sure, right now they're split, but this isn't a "they split up and will never team ever again and one of them will be released in a few months while the other winds up on Main Event by December". You know they'll reunite one day and that moment will be one fans will pop for.

Usos weren't exactly on the same page "since day 1 (of the Bloodline story)", this is partially how it started. All about Reigns wanting Jey to acknowledge him and fall in line, and eventually he did, but then Jimmy didn't want to.

Who knows, maybe this story does still lead to Reigns losing the title. Jimmy vs Jey eventually leads to both of them realizing what must be done to dethrone Reigns....The tribal chief SOLO?

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

I’m not saying I don’t like what they’re doing with the bloodline, but the rest of smackdown is so awful that I need to be blown away by the bloodline stuff to not feel like I wasted two hours watching. Swapping Gunther with Theory has really killed the show for me, hopefully they’re about to do something interesting with Lashley and the Street Profits

I'm not a Hockey fan but damn I would buy this shirt off WWE Shop if they sold it. Hell just make it without the Maple Leafs logo.

That looks nice. They had a similar version last year but it's blue and white instead of white and blue (as in blue was then primary colour last year). I got that blue one.

WWEs collabs with sports teams have been real cool. I don't know if they did it with anyone else before or after, but that Summerslam NBA Champs tee they had for the Raptors in 2019 is one of my fave pieces of merch ever. Its rare for WWE to even host a major PLE just months after a team playing in that venue won a championship, you really have to luck out, so being able to do that was even cooler.

Dom with the breaking news of the year.

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

I know everyone is saying Finn or Priest will be kicked out but I'd like to see Dom & Rhea be the ones to turn on Finn & Priest, making Finn & Priest faces while Dom takes the LWO from his father. Dom & Rhea, and LDF forming a new Judgment Day with Dom and Rhea brainwashing Santos Escobar that Rey purposely stole the championship opportunity from him.

I kind of get the sense that might happen.. every week Rhea is getting more frustrated with the bickering between Finn & Priest. So why not up and leave them and make a new Judgement Day while also continuing the Rey/Dom feud.

Team "Glasbro" has a nice ring to it

Or as Cole calls then, the Scotish HIGHlanders

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

Does this match feel "flat" to anyone else? Could just be me. Like it's got good spots and stuff but...I don't know how I can describe it.

Well never mind I think this explains why [emoji23] HERE WE GO!

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

That ending for Trish/Becky feels like a set up for a Steel Cage match at Payback

Edit-And Pearce makes it official

Re: WWE RAW & Smackdown Thread

Got to love how the Tag Team Titles are not split from Zayn and Owens. Zayn's partner is clearly injured yet he's allowed to roam around and feud with others. Then you see Chelsea Green having the need to find a tag team partner and she had a nice auditioning idea for it. Only for Piper Niven to come in and say that she is now her partner. Let's not forget all the other bs situations we have seen earlier this year with the Becky and Lita Tag Team Title loss. I'm seriously rolling my eyes at the booking of all this right now. Fricken split back the Men's Tag Team Titles please!

Judgment Day continues to get the most screentime every week. From promos and backstage segments. Poor Dominik couldn't get even get a word to come out of his mic during the beginning stages of his promo. Didnt hate the Alpha Academy/Imperium stuff at all. Its building towards the Gunter/Gable Title rematch. Are Riddle and McIntrye going to be tag team partners too or was this only for a week? Lynch/Stratus was a lengthy match. Stratus can still go. But that match result. I guess this feud really isn't ending yet. Nakamura continues to be a man of a few words in promos. Not surprised. Cody vs Balor was a nice main event match but sucks to see Balor eat a pin even with all that outside interference. Cody is clearly protected as he hardly loses.

Worthless episode tonight.

Hate wasting McIntyre on that insufferable loser.

Was it just me or was the the worst crowd they’ve had since…like last summer? Felt like 2015 crowd.

KO should be back by Monday (my guess).

He's competing in a dark match on Friday (to partially make up for the fact that the Bloodline won't be there, which is also why they're doing the Edge stuff).

Next Monday Raw is in Quebec City. They're absolutely having Owens return on TV for that.

Crowd did suck for that. Surprised a Winnipeg crowd wasn't so good. They had AEW there recently and the crowd was great for that.

It would've been funnier if we actually had a week or two of actual auditions.

You see random WWE,NXT,PC and former talent all in line waiting to meet with Chelsea.
