This supposedly includes E, but I have a hard time believing that. Now I just want Big E and Xavier to go and be massive nerds in NJPW.

Knowing the company and remembering they did the exact same thing with JR, if it happens it's going to be on one of the shows live, not done backstage and posted online.

ShakeZula posted:Dean as US Champ didn't work that well, to the point where they made jokes about how seldom he defended the belt. He held it for a long time but it was never more than a prop he carried to the ring for the Shield 6-man tags, and he lost it in a battle royal on some random Raw. I'll admit, I never watched anything between 2001 and the Shield, but from what I've heard, wasn't the US title kinda forgotten about at that point anyway? If anything, he elevated it just by having it while being in a popular stable.

Ugh. I bought tickets for Raw in Detroit on Monday in the hopes that the draft was then. It's going to be a bad Raw.

This supposedly includes E, but I have a hard time believing that. Xavier and Kofi I could believe. Big E... not so much. Then again, maybe he knows just how much they'd gently caress up his push and poo poo, he's not an idiot, he knows just how often a black man gets to be the face of the WWE. He'd have to take about seventeen sledgehammers to the brain to NOT realize there's a huge glass ceiling there regardless of his physique or talent, even though he's one of the most talented guys in the company in AND out of the ring. I don't know how this will go down, but I can see it all depending on Big E, because I could TOTALLY see Vince considering Xavier and Kofi expendable at this point. New Day is actually not as good now as they were 8-10 months ago as heels (they're still great), and they only turned face because you could not get a face team cheered against them. Even Enzo & Cass wouldn't have managed that with how over the New Day was, even when they were talking about how much your music and your city sucked. Kofi joked about beating up children and they still couldn't get heel heat. Where do you go from there? I mean, New Day is still awesome and I DO like the current feud with the Wyatts. It's been one of my favorite parts of Raw lately. But how much more do they have? I'm hoping this feud does something to make me eat my words but I doubt it will. *sigh*

Rogue Copter Pilot posted:the logical conclusion to his career is for him to win the loving royal rumble but that will never happen I've spent YEARS wanting that to finally happen. It won't. And that makes me sad. Kofi has been one of the best attractions for so many rumbles. *sigh* The worst part is, I still keep thinking "maybe next year" I'm an idiot.

People have walked out before shows (Austin, Ryback and Punk. lol forever at me being able to list Ryback and Punk back to back like that forever now) but never in the middle of an ongoing show, on-air or not. JR said he considered it after being drafted, just going backstage and not coming back, but that was as close as it's gotten.

So we will know in less than 30 minutes if Brock is about to be buried, or ascend to his position as God-Emperor of Mankind. (Or at least, one of his primarchs)

Darren Young worked The Miz at the Ricoh show tonight in Toronto and, predictably, he used a more technical style. He's got newish gear and I think his theme song is different too. To me he came off like someone playing the part of a technical wrestler rather than being one, if that makes sense. He didn't use the chicken wing but they did call attention to the technical wrestler aspect, because Miz cut a promo saying he was the best technical wrestler which is when DY came out. Natalya also worked superface because Canada. Took lots of selfies around the ring and brought in a fan sign, which Charlotte ripped up. Oh and Survivor Series tix are onsale right now until the 14th (that's when they go on for general public) - Presale code WWEPPV . They're either cheaper than I remember or I haven't been to a PPV in a while. $200 CAD for floors seems low to me but I'm not complaining.
