    Nobody will top that.
    That sounds terrible. But also very WWE to troll its own audience.

      I don't think it would be Batista? Although Batista and Rey going in together would be fitting. Two headliners would be an interesting induction this time around.


      Either that or its some celeb that Flair has ties to.
      The Great Muta? If this actually happens I'd like to see WWE get Sting to be the one to induct Muta into the HOF.

        Eh, this week's RAW was just okay. Edge had a nice opening promo where he mentioned how he is still feuding with the Judgment Day and is running out of time with his wrestling career. So he needs to hurry up and feud with others. Decides he wants a match with Balor but at WM where Balor accepts since it will be a Hell in the Cell match. Fine with me. Just end this feud after this. Judgment Day vs Gargano/Lumis was a solid tag team match but I am not feeling anything about this Gargano and Lumis pairing.

        Cody Rhodes vs LA Knight. Isn't LA Knight on Smackdown? This match was decent and have nothing bad to say about it. Cody's post match promo was pretty good though as he was able to get the fans to root for what he is aiming for. To finally win a World Title for the Rhodes family. I thought Omos/Lesnar segment was short and simple too. I'm shocked Brock actually got to do some physical stuff with Omos. Remember when he used to just stand around, do nothing while Heyman did the talking for him? Elias jobbed to Bronson Reed but god damns, seeing a big dude like Bronson Reed do his dive finisher on you has to hurt. Enjoyed the Street Profits/Theory backstage segment. Then okay match between Theory/Dawkins. Is this building to Montez Ford challenging Theory someday? Would love to see that. This Rey Misterio/Dominik thing is a long storyline. Rollins/Corbin was whatever to me. Bianca Belair/Chelsea Green was decent but what got me wondering is if Carmella and Chelsea should go after the Tag Team Titles. Asuka's lack of promo skills is really dragging down this feud with Bianca. I honestly dont care that she altered her gimmick. Owens/Sikoa was a great Street Fight fight. Good main event match. But it ended like that? I wanted more.

          Dominik is getting really good.

          He started greener than goose ****, but what do you expect from someone so young who's performance center and NXT days were skipped?

          He's connecting on all aspects right now, and give the kid another year or two after this feud with Rey and he could easily become a top babyface/tweener.

          He worked through the "What?" Chants very well, and overall seemed to be very comfortable in there without anyone else to "back him up".

            This feels like the first brick of The Street Profits split being laid based one what we saw last night. Only thing is looking at who is the one to go heel here. I can see the obvious angle being Montez being pissed about what Theory said and feeling like Dawkins is the one holding him back and why they don't have a WM match and he's come up short in his singles chances because of him having to carry Dawkins. I can also see WWE swerving everyone because the other angle is so obvious (like when everyone just assumed whenever The Shield was going to break up the first time that Ambrose would be the one to go heel and it ended up being Rollins) and having Dawkins be the one to go heel because he's sick of everyone treating him like an after thought in The Street Profits and how all he ever hears about how great Tez is and how big of a star Tez is going to be when he's the one that's carried the team. Maybe they swerve even harder and they just amicably split to pursue singles goals, idk, but the split is definitely coming.

            As for Dom, I love where they've gone with him and he's been gold for me since the Prison Dom stuff took over. I just don't get why they're still dragging out Rey finally snapping and setting up the match at Mania with Dom. Unless Rey is going to do it on Smackdown Friday, Wrestlemania is 2 weeks away and they're just gonna be making that match next week on Raw or Smackdown? Even Undertaker finally decided he was ready to whoop Kane's *** like a month before WM 14 almost lol

              If Otis turns on Gable and joins MMM, does Gable go out and recruit 2 guys to join him?

              Possibly 2 guys from NXT with an all American wrestling background?

              I'd love Gable as the mouthpiece for the Creeds.

                Either pairing Chad with another duo/person (Gable Steveson's brother, maybe?) or finally giving him a solid singles push (better option).

                He should've won the US or IC belt a long *** time ago. Still, would like to see him get one good babyface run with either championship.

                  At this point I'd rather he have a notable run without a title than just giving him the title just because and probably having him wind up a forgettable champ.

                  Creeds would be the easy pairing for him, and they'd team in 6 man tags too vs Inperium or Brawling Brutes or LDF.

                    If current reports are accurate probably won't be a Brawling Brutes soon.

                      Which is such a counter-productive move, IMO, since him being in the Brutes and being "unpredictable" made him interesting.

                      Maybe they'll finally send up Tyler Bate and have him join the Brutes?

                      I guess he'll go back to just being the smallish, bland guy that attacks limbs.

                          Looks like no WM battle royals this year.

                          Instead they'll throw people in a men's and women's fatal 4 way tag match.
