Definitely Australian
My thoughts.

Sting didn't sound too lovely on the mic, but the material was really bad.

Ziggler/Rusev program is loving terrible.

Ryback vs. Big Show was quite a decent hoss off tbh. The bump Show took from the top rope looked quite bad.

2/3 Shield vs. The New Wyatt's ... that was loving sick really. I don't trust their booking of Strowman at all though. Just reminds me of Snitsky, Nathan Jones, Kurrgan, Chainz loving everyone like that. If anything I think they can and will slip Rowan back into the Wyatt Family ... there has to be a 4th Horseman and they'll probably tease him being there for the Shield. Survivor Series isn't too far away so I expect this really to lead to a traditional Survivor Series match 4 on 4, just not sure on who the Shield will have by their side... I'm guessing Orton and ... Daniel Bryan if cleared.

It's clear these girls can wrestle... loving terribly booked though that much is obvious. Sasha and Becky are gorgeous women. loving Charlotte with her surname getting the push out of it though... Not a fan.

I love dumb talented Seth Rollins... Can't wait until he has his epiphany and becomes humble superhero Rollins. Cena's promo was pretty good tbh. They've stacked the odds so high Seth will need a strength most don't possess.

His voice was good, and exactly what you would expect a 6'9", 400 pound man who talked to a demonic spirit woman and became her weapon to sound like. Everything about the mighty Braun Strowman is flawless.

Can't post for 3 years!
If they had booked the Diva's Revolution like they booked any other storyline it would have worked. Come out and cut a promo about how they're here and want respect. Trips comes out and cuts a misogynist B+ player promo. They keep overcoming his challenges and getting more screen time against his will and he gets madder and gets his ladies to cheat more. Eventually they gang up on him and he flops around comically as they beat his rear end. Or if you don't want to go misogynist, just have Steph and the Mean Girls against these weirdo Indie Darlings. Either way don't SAY "Diva's Revolution" until at least a few month's in

Nothing wrong with Charlotte getting a title shot. Really my only big problem was that they made Sasha look like a chump for some reason. Have Sasha win, give her the opportunities to cut some promos tearing down Nikki and demanding a title shot, this isn't hard.

Zero. Main event will obviously be Sting/Rollins and I have no idea why you'd think otherwise

I prefer the term "Battle FROG."
Rollins lays down for Cena, wisely figuring giving up the US Title and staying fresh for Sting would be in his best interests. UbermensCena doesn't want to win like that and walks away like the HERO he truly is, granting Rollins the win by COUNTOUT canyoubelievethisMaggle.

Rollins then beats Sting clean and all is in its right place.

Except Cena would just stick to his consistent character trait of beating up a prone, defenseless human (for recent history see Rusev and Jon Stewart) in order to get his hand raisedCHAMPISHEEE-URRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Keep me away from the fantasy book.

The only way this HHH circle Jerk of Kevin Nash in WCW levels makes any sense is if Rollins beats Sting then beats HHH at the next PPV. I doubt that would happen though.

He's the greatest giant in history. If the writers come and try to bury him by Christmas, he will simply tear them with his horse-like arms because Strowman is all business all the time.

Oh nice, I watched the YouTube recaps when the promo wasn't yet up. Kind of annoying how they post those things in what appears to be a completely random order.

That Motörhead cover of Sympathy for the Devil that HHH requested is on their new album. It rules.

It could just be a song he wanted them to play, but it would really work in a hypothetical video package for Rollins/HHH at Mania.

Everyone involved in the title match spent their promos talking up HHH. Cena has been looking very strong lately, yet is not directly in the world title picture. The stars are aligning for The Game to have another reign of terror so we all know whom is the best strongest cool guy.

They're mostly being goons but not completely. I more took it as planting seeds for a heel HHH/face Rollins feud down the line after Seth drops the titles and The Authority ousts him.
