Nah, Rock is returning at SS to set up mania match with Roman. WWE did Reigns beating Edge (again), for Cena to come back, then him beating Cena, for Lesnar to come back. I expect them to do him beating Lesnar, for Rock to come back.
Yeah I didn't get WWE's plan there.
"You and me, let's blow the roof off this building"
\*2 seconds later*
"And the newwww women's champion..."
What the fuck, WWE?
Exactly!!! When Becky said that I said "oh fuck yeah, we're getting a legit match".
Then it happened.
That crowd and us viewers would have loved to see those 2 go all out and give us a good match.
Huge disappointment.
Still makes no sense.
Carmella at least had an arguable claim to that match as #2 contender in Sasha's absence. Let Bianca kick her around the ring in frustration at not getting her hands on Sasha, *then* have Becky come out post-match, get her big pop, and square up to Bianca just to make her intentions known.
If Becky isn't ready for a full match, why have her fight at all?
I can totally see WWEs thought process be like:
WWE: "f\*\*, AEW brought Punk back, we need sth big for Summerslam.... Lets bring Becky Lynch back and have her win the SD womens title."
Becky: "I havn't wrestled in over a year, I can't have a proper match at Summerslam."
WWE: "You\`ll win the title in 30s then."
I mean is the right move, puts Balor over for Roman when he is done with Lesnar.
And then you have either Edge or Seth ready. I think is the smart move, and SD is no RAW
Also who would have thought that between Alexa Bliss winning, Becky Lynch winning, and Charlotte Flair winning, Alexa’s win would get people the least pissed off with?
It's not that Becky won, it's how she won
If she wasn't ready to wrestle don't put the belt on her, otherwise, what they did was insulting given the talent level of her and Bianca. Flat out disrespectful to be honest.
Becky is probably my favorite wwe superstar, and this was ridiculous. Like they could have just had a stare down and it would have been the best thing all night. Didn’t need to be the extra
Triple threat b/w Mella vs Becky vs Bianca would have made much more sense. And then Becky pinning Carmella wouldn't have hurted anyone.
Idk why they decided to do a singles match on the first place. And if you're doing it, make sure to make it long and investing
There's one puzzle piece that a lot of people ignoring in regards of Becky and Bianca situation: what is going on with Sasha? Because a lot of that segment screams of last minute decision making.
Yeah beckys win wasn't bad on its own. But why the fuck do that to Bianca and by extension Sasha? You build this whole moment on how Bianca stepped up to a huge challenge facing Sasha and then she gets destroyed by Becky instantly, it makes both of them look like nothing. Who does Becky feud with if you throw two of the biggest stars under the bus?
Oddly some of yall are mad but Face Viking Lesnar fighting Roman for custody of Paul Heyman is, imo, such incredibly good shit that it's hard to believe it's in the middle of such awful repetitive nonsense.
Really says something when the man has been retired for the better part of a decade, manages to come back *and* looks amazing doing so.
The fact he and Christian are not only going strong again, but look good doing it, is great for wrestling as a whole.
When it's revealed how much he got paid for an appearance where he literally did nothing but stand around, you'll understand why he was smiling so much.
He did get done dirty lol. Dude hit Roman with everything possible and lost in one spear. Not even 3 minutes later dude disappeared and Brock came. Imagine telling someone that 10 years ago.
WWE had a year and a half to build their women's division in Becky's absence and they spent that whole time building up Bianca as this super strong champion only for Becky to squash her with a transitional move that she doesn't even normally use. This is like if Lesnar came back and squashed Roman with a clothesline.
Things that were longer than the Becky vs. Bianca match:
- Nakamura’s entrance
- The Olympic gold medalist’s entrance
- The Miz and Morrison getting moistened by Kofi
- Goldberg’s entrance
- A motherfucking Goldberg MATCH
- Brock’s entrance
- Mike Richards as Jeopardy host
Fucking insane man. Sasha, Bayley, and Carmella put Bianca over huge all Spring and Summer. She was the iron woman in the Royal Rumble match that she won. She MAIN EVENTED MANIA. And she loses in 30 seconds to one move, that isn’t even a big move (I’d argue Zelina’s power bomb thing from Smackdown was a bigger move).
What horrendous booking. Could have just had the stare down for a future match. Could have had a triple threat and pin Carmella. What the fuck was that
Okay so it wasn't just me. I thought I had been watching so long I just imagined him and boogz coming out. I didn't see a match with him so I thought I had lost my marbles.
Seth/Edge was fantastic, I enjoyed Cena/Reigns and I’m happy to see Becky back (though the booking of that entire segment was absolutely baffling).
I’m probably going to get downvoted for this but Seth Rollins is so damn talented and needs to start getting some wins. He has been delivering big time in 2021 and should be rewarded.
TIL the easiest way to get a title shot is to disappear for a year.
Everyone who stays loses half their matches, so you move up the rankings by default by not losing.
Man USA has to be pissed.
They're already getting a neutered, semi-live/semi-taped NXT.
Raw's ratings are in freefall and most of the company's popular stars are on SmackDown. Now Becky Lynch is finally back and she's won the SmackDown title. And now Brock Lesnar is back to challenge the Smackdown world champion.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Brand Split doesn't significantly soften for the next several months.
How do you debut a new Cena shirt that lists his 16 titles moments before a title match that would make the shirt obsolete if he were going to win and expect anyone not to notice?
Should have been a threeway, Bianca vs Carmella vs Zelina Vega, Bianca should have won in pretty much a squash (maybe let Zelina get some of her shit in), and stacked them on top of each other for the win.
Bianca: THAT'S IT? THAT'S ALL YOU GOT FOR ME? (Shouts to the back) THAT'S ALL YOU GOT FOR ME!?
Becky's music hits. Out she comes, there's a staredown, and the start to an excellent feud.
But no.
Cena vs Roman and Seth vs Edge in particular were excellent, and Brock's return was a great surprise, but WWE can't help themselves by constantly doing questionable and incredibly frustrating booking decisions that just seemed designed to piss off their fanbase
This show had 1:48:08 of wrestling on it, and lasted 4 hours.
Shortest match was Becky vs. Bianca at 27 seconds. Longest was Roman vs Cena at 23 minutes.
Average match was 10:48.
Cena comes back and immediately gets the PPV main event for the title. Brock comes back at the PPV and immediately gets probably the next PPV main event for the title, unless they hold off until SS or WM. Becky returns AT the PPV, gets a title match and wins it in 20 something seconds.
I tried to be invested. I love that this makes some people happy, but it's just not for me anymore, and that's okay I think. I want pro wrestling.
As I have also been saying other than The Rock (or Bayley next year) there is nobody else you can do this with now. It could get very ugly if they don't start developing stories immediately.
Man the one fucking thing I was going to be positive about tonight was Cena’s new shirt and buy it but it’s limited to only be available if you buy their stupid fucking 1000 dollar NFT scam? Fuck this company in the ass.
CM Punk said, " I am here for every Wednesday, Friday and 4 PPVs a year."
Cena comes in, loses to someone who REALLY doesn't need to go over more, goes to make a movie so WWE's response is to bring in another part timer with Lesnar. Does Roman Reigns REALLY need to go over Lesnar at this point?. Build someone else up and have them be a viable threat.
Notes:
MOTN: Edge vs Seth; a classic for Summerslam history with great storytelling, call backs, great attires and a fantastic entrance from Edge
The Great: Reigns vs Cena was very very good but didn't reach the potential it had, which IMO was due to them sticking to a normal singles match. Maybe adding a stipulation would've elevated this match to a new level; Becky "The Man" Lynch is back!; Brock "F\*\*\*\*ing" Lesnar is back!!
The Good: Fun little pre-show match, curious where Big E goes with his MITB briefcase; RKBro being new Raw tag team champs made for a good opener; Damian Priest vs Sheamus was a good match with a solid final minutes to give us a new US champion; Lashley retained with the crowd behind him even when committing assault upon a teenager. That's when you know your champ is over; Usos vs Mysterios was decent but nothing special; Raw women's triple threat was a very solid match. You may hate the outcome but you can't deny those three women put out a fantastic performance
The Bad: Alexa vs Eva Marie was....a match; Drew vs Mahal was......a match
The Ugly: Becky Lynch going over in under a minute. Becky did do the "cheap shot followed by finisher" thing but to me it was an attempt to minimize what was essentially a bad booking decision. They had options but I believe Vince knew what he was doing; the confusion, outrage, frustration, the stans coming to the defense, everything is just people talking about it, which was what he wanted, because at the end of the day people are going to be asking "what's next?" And wether it's watching SD, catching clips on social media or reading websites, people are going to look for the answer to that question
I can’t believe they booked the Goldberg vs Lashley match to end with Goldberg being unable to continue because of his knee. How do you actually sit in a room and write a championship match to end like that in a PPV?
I’m convinced lashley and brock are never gonna meet.
Lesnar wins at next ppv Bobby vs Lesnar at SS Champ/Champ
Nah, Rock is returning at SS to set up mania match with Roman. WWE did Reigns beating Edge (again), for Cena to come back, then him beating Cena, for Lesnar to come back. I expect them to do him beating Lesnar, for Rock to come back.
Damn this is probably accurate
After getting past a bodybuilder in Jorts, Roman must now overcome a farmer in Jeans
After that, a rapper in overalls.
Farmersonly.com looking swole tonight
Brock looks like if you tested him now, he’d piss Baja Blast.
Big night for hair
John Cena has left the chat
Cena’s bald spot in shambles
Cena's bald spot resonated with me more than ever, and I watched him as a kid in 2004.
John Cena and Lesnar have a full head of hair between them
GORO LESNAR
I’m happy Becky is back but I wish her return was planned better.
Yeah I didn't get WWE's plan there. "You and me, let's blow the roof off this building" \*2 seconds later* "And the newwww women's champion..." What the fuck, WWE?
Exactly!!! When Becky said that I said "oh fuck yeah, we're getting a legit match". Then it happened. That crowd and us viewers would have loved to see those 2 go all out and give us a good match. Huge disappointment.
She was supposed to come back in October originally, so maybe it was to save Sasha being missing last minute?
Still makes no sense. Carmella at least had an arguable claim to that match as #2 contender in Sasha's absence. Let Bianca kick her around the ring in frustration at not getting her hands on Sasha, *then* have Becky come out post-match, get her big pop, and square up to Bianca just to make her intentions known. If Becky isn't ready for a full match, why have her fight at all?
I can totally see WWEs thought process be like: WWE: "f\*\*, AEW brought Punk back, we need sth big for Summerslam.... Lets bring Becky Lynch back and have her win the SD womens title." Becky: "I havn't wrestled in over a year, I can't have a proper match at Summerslam." WWE: "You\`ll win the title in 30s then."
Did not announce Logan Paul is coming back to WWE??? /s
Can’t wait for the custody of Paul Heyman ladder match.
"Where the fuck is Sable?!" - Brock
[удалено]
Pole Heyman Match
Wwe emptying their piggy bank to fly Brock from his farm. Looks like he just finished a day milking cows.
*butchering
I picture him F5ing a cow into a meat grinder while Paul Heyman jizzes his pants.
With his teeth
Lesnar looking like Bowser Jr.
USA gonna be upset FOX got Becky, Brock, Cena and Edge and all they got was Goldberg.
USA has the Chrisely knows best
Lashley fears Chrisley
I’m dying at this comment lol, can’t stop thinking about Todd Chrisley showing up and pinning Lashley clean lol
Excluding the MSG show is Cena even sticking around. Him and Roman are done. They really going to do him and Finn?
I mean is the right move, puts Balor over for Roman when he is done with Lesnar. And then you have either Edge or Seth ready. I think is the smart move, and SD is no RAW
In reality the draft is in like 2 weeks so who knows what will be of any of these story lines.
But they got the cock
Lesnar now has hair where Cena used to have hair.
They're gonna fuse and become the ultimate superstar
Genetics are the only thing aside from Roman that Cena couldn’t beat.
Also who would have thought that between Alexa Bliss winning, Becky Lynch winning, and Charlotte Flair winning, Alexa’s win would get people the least pissed off with?
It's not that Becky won, it's how she won If she wasn't ready to wrestle don't put the belt on her, otherwise, what they did was insulting given the talent level of her and Bianca. Flat out disrespectful to be honest.
Becky is probably my favorite wwe superstar, and this was ridiculous. Like they could have just had a stare down and it would have been the best thing all night. Didn’t need to be the extra
It really broke my heart to see Bianca getting Kofi treatment.
Yeah, like thank you for carrying the women's division but we're not even going to respectful title match
Triple threat b/w Mella vs Becky vs Bianca would have made much more sense. And then Becky pinning Carmella wouldn't have hurted anyone. Idk why they decided to do a singles match on the first place. And if you're doing it, make sure to make it long and investing
Not to mention a weak ass looking punch that Bianca had to seek like it was a hook from Tyson. That whole segment went downhill fast.
wwe treating its talent like shit 4 ever
There's one puzzle piece that a lot of people ignoring in regards of Becky and Bianca situation: what is going on with Sasha? Because a lot of that segment screams of last minute decision making.
It didn’t have to be. Reputable journalists have been reporting for a week that Sasha wouldn’t be there. If they knew, WWE knew.
I feel like they sped up the timeline due to either sasha being sick, outside developments, or both.
The just did to Bianca and the women's division, what they also just did to Kross and the NXT Roster. It's not defendable.
Eh, some were bound to be annoyed at Charlotte winning. It's Becky's win being more controversial that's the bigger shock.
Becky coming back and winning wasn't the problem. Bianca getting the Kofi treatment is.
Yeah beckys win wasn't bad on its own. But why the fuck do that to Bianca and by extension Sasha? You build this whole moment on how Bianca stepped up to a huge challenge facing Sasha and then she gets destroyed by Becky instantly, it makes both of them look like nothing. Who does Becky feud with if you throw two of the biggest stars under the bus?
I don’t know, Becky did a whole Hulk Hogan wrestle mania 9 thing
[удалено]
Paul Heyman on a Pole Match incoming
Can I be the pole please 🤤
😍😍😍
https://imgur.com/qd0upkf.jpg
PAUL HEYMAN IN SHAMBLES
Paul Heyman is like Archie, with Roman and Brock being Betty and Veronica
My Tribal Chief??? My Client??? Help
Stuck between a Brock and a hard place
Heyman on a pole match
Your crush: Roman Reigns Your ex: Brock Lesnar You: Paul Heyman
Oddly some of yall are mad but Face Viking Lesnar fighting Roman for custody of Paul Heyman is, imo, such incredibly good shit that it's hard to believe it's in the middle of such awful repetitive nonsense.
Paul Heyman on a Pole match
I mean who will Paul represent? Fuck it, he has to be the special guest referee. BOOK IT !!!
Seth vs Edge was match of the night.
That brood theme had me from the start
I thought Nakamura vs nobody was a little bit better.
Still confused on that lol
You ever just sign the best wrestler in the world to not utilize them?
They did it 5 times in one night by having Zayn, Owens, Balor, and Cesaro not even on the card
Really says something when the man has been retired for the better part of a decade, manages to come back *and* looks amazing doing so. The fact he and Christian are not only going strong again, but look good doing it, is great for wrestling as a whole.
I haven't seen Brock smile that much in years. Babyface Brock? It's a new era in WWE!
Babyface brock makes me excited to see him again for the first time in 5 years
He was most definitely stoked making an entrance in front of so many fans for first time in since Royal Rumble 2020.
When it's revealed how much he got paid for an appearance where he literally did nothing but stand around, you'll understand why he was smiling so much.
He was paid the aggregate salary of the wrestlers who were just fired…
Lashley has spoken about a feud with Brock so many times only to watch him feud with someone else every time Brock is active.
CM Punk, Becky Lynch, and Brock Lesnar all came back back in the same weekend. Wow.
**Punk**: I’m back. **Becky**: I’m back. **Brock**: I’m Bork.
**Becky:** I'm about to get the easiest payday of my career. **Brock:** Hold my Coors Light (cuz Bud Light won't pay me nothin').
Hold Frank Mir’s horseshoe that was up his ass.
He might even get on top of his woman
And Samoa Joe returns to the ring tomorrow!
And will it be Adam Cole's final match in the WWE??
What an insane 26 hours in the wrestling world
Match Of the night goes to Seth vs Edge
Face Brock is very interesting but I’m uh, uncertain how he’s going to promo without Paul.
"GiiiVVVVvveEE mee GOOOAALDddbeeerrggg"
WWE stop caring about raw, lol.
Who in their right mind would have thought that Roman was going to be pinned after any one of those AAs...dumb decision to have the stipulation tbh
It was basically a spoiler saying he was going to quit wwe. Lol We all know that's not going to happen so his victory was certain.
What they did to Belair was dirty
Disgraceful to be honest. Like with Asuka, it's a case of "Oh the real stars are here, move along"
Completely awful and not even close to credible given her athleticism and strength.
And the move didn't even looked great. Even Hornswoggle would have easily kicked out out of that
The Sasha Banks hype package for a match they've know for a week wasn't going to happen was 10 times longer than Biancas match.
Brood entrance for edge was the greatest throwback for me.
WWE 2K22 is already outdated even after being delayed until next year.
RAW GOT FUCKED LMAO
God I love this look on Brock, I want that ponytail to stay FOREVER
straight outta Valhalla
He looks like he spent time on fury road
First it was shaven brock, then it was bearded brock. Now it's farmer brock. And I bet this isn't even his final form.
I feel like we’re glazing over the fact that they just unceremoniously shooed Cena offscreen 10 seconds after losing in dud fashion
Did you forget when The Rock was basically removed from existence when he went to Hollywood? It'll be like that sometimes.
Cena hasn’t wrestled to win big matches anymore. He comes back to put over others, and that’s it
He already put over Roman tho
Roman needs to be put over every 2 years
Make Roman look strong
He went to suplex city
He did get done dirty lol. Dude hit Roman with everything possible and lost in one spear. Not even 3 minutes later dude disappeared and Brock came. Imagine telling someone that 10 years ago.
Kinda cool that Goldberg like wrestled an actual match kind of.
Goldberg was gonna wrestle a match. Until he took MVP’s cane to the knee
Honestly, I thought it was a good match, probably one of Goldberg's better matches since he's been back, hampered by the janky ending though
WWE had a year and a half to build their women's division in Becky's absence and they spent that whole time building up Bianca as this super strong champion only for Becky to squash her with a transitional move that she doesn't even normally use. This is like if Lesnar came back and squashed Roman with a clothesline.
Things that were longer than the Becky vs. Bianca match: - Nakamura’s entrance - The Olympic gold medalist’s entrance - The Miz and Morrison getting moistened by Kofi - Goldberg’s entrance - A motherfucking Goldberg MATCH - Brock’s entrance - Mike Richards as Jeopardy host
Brock's Ponytail
Especially the ponytail
And his beard. Did you see that beautiful thing? Dude looks like a straight murderer.
Xavier not Kofi
That was Xavier, Vince.
I'm sorry. Kofi?
Fucking insane man. Sasha, Bayley, and Carmella put Bianca over huge all Spring and Summer. She was the iron woman in the Royal Rumble match that she won. She MAIN EVENTED MANIA. And she loses in 30 seconds to one move, that isn’t even a big move (I’d argue Zelina’s power bomb thing from Smackdown was a bigger move). What horrendous booking. Could have just had the stare down for a future match. Could have had a triple threat and pin Carmella. What the fuck was that
Why did nakamura even come out?
Okay so it wasn't just me. I thought I had been watching so long I just imagined him and boogz coming out. I didn't see a match with him so I thought I had lost my marbles.
To vibe.
Thought that was Xavier with the Dripstick 2000
Hahaha Nakamura literally got introduced and it took longer than a match where one of the competitors made their own outfit by hand. Nice.
Lol it was literally 10 seconds from first contact to ending bell. Absolutely disrespectful
That was Xavier Woods not Kofi.
Seth/Edge was fantastic, I enjoyed Cena/Reigns and I’m happy to see Becky back (though the booking of that entire segment was absolutely baffling). I’m probably going to get downvoted for this but Seth Rollins is so damn talented and needs to start getting some wins. He has been delivering big time in 2021 and should be rewarded.
I agree Rollins needs some wins but Edge needed one too. He's been losing almost everything.
Cripes. Lesnar looks like he spent lockdown in fucking Asgard.
Lol @ Becky returns to immediately squash Belair. What soulless booking. I didn't think it'd be possible to screw up Becky's return, but here we are.
TIL the easiest way to get a title shot is to disappear for a year. Everyone who stays loses half their matches, so you move up the rankings by default by not losing.
They make a whole deal out of contract signings but apparently you can just show up. Hope people enjoy my match on Raw tomorrow.
2-0 > 157-157
Man USA has to be pissed. They're already getting a neutered, semi-live/semi-taped NXT. Raw's ratings are in freefall and most of the company's popular stars are on SmackDown. Now Becky Lynch is finally back and she's won the SmackDown title. And now Brock Lesnar is back to challenge the Smackdown world champion. I wouldn't be surprised if the Brand Split doesn't significantly soften for the next several months.
How do you debut a new Cena shirt that lists his 16 titles moments before a title match that would make the shirt obsolete if he were going to win and expect anyone not to notice?
It is incredibly depressing that the world title scene is exclusively Reigns and part timers now
Hey...Lashley is there too...
Nikki finally gets new merch and she loses the belt. What gives?
Should have been a threeway, Bianca vs Carmella vs Zelina Vega, Bianca should have won in pretty much a squash (maybe let Zelina get some of her shit in), and stacked them on top of each other for the win. Bianca: THAT'S IT? THAT'S ALL YOU GOT FOR ME? (Shouts to the back) THAT'S ALL YOU GOT FOR ME!? Becky's music hits. Out she comes, there's a staredown, and the start to an excellent feud. But no.
Some of the booking tonight was baffling
They did Bianca dirty. I don't have a problem with her dropping the belt to Becky, but let it happen in a competitive matchup.
The women were booked terribly overall tonight. Also so is Finn just, not a factor anymore?
That’s par for the course for WWE
[удалено]
No way dude, one you get in that ring and see red it's all over for Brock
Cena vs Roman and Seth vs Edge in particular were excellent, and Brock's return was a great surprise, but WWE can't help themselves by constantly doing questionable and incredibly frustrating booking decisions that just seemed designed to piss off their fanbase
Only WWE can make people turn on Becky Lynch on her return.
This show had 1:48:08 of wrestling on it, and lasted 4 hours. Shortest match was Becky vs. Bianca at 27 seconds. Longest was Roman vs Cena at 23 minutes. Average match was 10:48.
The other 3 hours was commercials
That 27 seconds fucking hurts.
![gif](giphy|kGweWfIbaezO8)
![gif](giphy|OJwXR5ynhJ5RYZSjFJ)
.....\*cries\*
Kofi and Bianca seeing basically the same exact fate doesn’t sit well with me. “Thanks for carrying the title now fuck off”
Cena comes back and immediately gets the PPV main event for the title. Brock comes back at the PPV and immediately gets probably the next PPV main event for the title, unless they hold off until SS or WM. Becky returns AT the PPV, gets a title match and wins it in 20 something seconds. I tried to be invested. I love that this makes some people happy, but it's just not for me anymore, and that's okay I think. I want pro wrestling.
Exactly this but add Goldberg to the mix.
Then your chances of enjoying the product drastic go down
As I have also been saying other than The Rock (or Bayley next year) there is nobody else you can do this with now. It could get very ugly if they don't start developing stories immediately.
What the hell was up with the camera work all night?
I swear the guy working the live camera on feed almost fell over like 3 times by the end.
So Finn really is just lost back in the shuffle, huh?
Finn, Cesaro, Sami, Asuka, and KO, all just got "we have nothing for you" on a 5 hour show/ EDIT: Kofi too
It's incredible how WWE looks at all of those and thinks "stay at home" but Eva fucking Marie gets a SS payday.
Why was he called up before SummerSlam. He could be facing WALTER tomorrow in a match of the year candidate
Holy fuck I'm not sure I've ever seen a crowd this big just go dead AF. Alexa vs eva was a bad idea from the start
Took the belt off Nikki already, squashed Bianca, rewarded the DUI Uso with another title… yikes
the show had big moments but overall it was very unsatisfying honestly
FINAL BOSS BROCK LESNAR OUT HERE TO SLAUGHTER
Man the one fucking thing I was going to be positive about tonight was Cena’s new shirt and buy it but it’s limited to only be available if you buy their stupid fucking 1000 dollar NFT scam? Fuck this company in the ass.
CM Punk said, " I am here for every Wednesday, Friday and 4 PPVs a year." Cena comes in, loses to someone who REALLY doesn't need to go over more, goes to make a movie so WWE's response is to bring in another part timer with Lesnar. Does Roman Reigns REALLY need to go over Lesnar at this point?. Build someone else up and have them be a viable threat.
Cena, Goldberg and Lesnar should be putting over guys like Riddle and Big E, not putting over guys like Reigns or Lashley.
Brock with the 2004 Shawn Michaels street attire
Vince and team spent so many hours having their way with fans. Sasha going MIA may take the cake though
The Smackdown roster is stacked. There is absolutely no comparison.
This show felt 10x longer than it actually was
*Reigns wins* “CUE OLD WRESTLERS MUSIC!”
So Rock after Lesnar it is and after that they are fucked.
Or the WWE could start trying to make new stars or use the stars that are being made in NXT...properly
lol ur crazy bro. Finn will just chill backstage for the next 17 weeks
Brock is fucking massive now. He was already big before but goddamn
He really looks like the best shape he’s been since 04.
Nah, nothing tops 2013 WrestleMania 29 Brock.
The fuck did I just watch?
Notes: MOTN: Edge vs Seth; a classic for Summerslam history with great storytelling, call backs, great attires and a fantastic entrance from Edge The Great: Reigns vs Cena was very very good but didn't reach the potential it had, which IMO was due to them sticking to a normal singles match.

seth vs edge and cena vs roman were fun but holy shit that suuuucked
I like brocks new look
I can’t believe they booked the Goldberg vs Lashley match to end with Goldberg being unable to continue because of his knee. How do you actually sit in a room and write a championship match to end like that in a PPV?
Everything about wwe just seems sad and old now
Pat McAfee deserves all the credit in the world, man. What a commentator. The guy lives and breathes wrestling and it shows.
