Eh maybe. They are trying to push Bron right now. He is going to be a big star and they know it. He has had like 2 matches since WM and both ended very fast with Bron wrecking a dude.

Carmelo "Him" Hayes. Former partner of Trick William on NXT. There was some thought he was going to be drafted since he is usually pretty good on NXT, but he did not have a good showing tonight.

Swerve is one guy who was completely transparent with how much he disliked Paul so none of this was surprising. I get trying to build guys up but thirty second squash matches are loving terrible decisions when the loser is a talented guy and not a local jobber. You just devalued a guy who was literally drafted by a brand the same night, all you’re doing is making the brand who picked him look loving stupid

Cedric had the match of his fuckin' life with Kota Ibushi in the 2016 CWC, the fans screamed for HHH to sign him so he did, and this is what they're doing with him now

whole lot of house shows and Main Event on that Cagematch listing, it looks the only thing he ever did on the main roster was a stint with Hurt Business tagging with Shelton Benjamin

burned eight years of this man's career

Bronn is pretty good and fun to watch. He is a combination of Rick's and Scott's moves. He does a sick Steiner line, but his superior frankensteiner is gonna kill someone.

Edit:

quote:

Roman Reigns will not be returning to WWE action "in the immediate future."

Via his manager Paul Heyman, Reigns announced on Friday's WWE SmackDown episode that he has withdrawn his eligibility for the 2024 WWE Draft, and will not be returning to the ring any time soon. 

Heyman made the announcement on Reigns' behalf in a backstage interview with Kayla Braxton at the top of SmackDown, framing it as Reigns stepping aside so as not to "hog the spotlight" of the first round of the draft given that Reigns has no immediate plans to return to action.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
I caught Carmelo’s entrance last night on smackdown and he came out to dead silence. I’m not exaggerating at all, they cut to the performance Center during his entrance and the 40 people watching there made more noise than the 10k plus in the arena. In the few minutes I watched the only thing the crowd seemed in to was the Wooaaah during Cody’s entrance. For all this new era talk they went right to commercial after a minute of match time too.

But the cameras are a little different and sometimes someone gets a neat entrance. So you'll find it's actually nothing but five star bangers now, your favorite wrestlers are alive again and at their peak, and your dad finally came back with the smokes he was getting plus a puppy.

With Speed they get to cozy up to Elon Musk and give him content geared towards the Twitter demographic (insane people).
