I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



Or like Brock did for most of the four way at Summerslam with Joe, Roman and Braun.

I just watched the ladder match from last night, holy poo poo Rey almost paralyzed himself falling upside down from the belt hanger. Andrade took way too many dangerous ladder bumps in this match for a loving Raw episode. Why the hell wasn't this match saved for the Rumble?

Rey needs to suffer more defeats before he puts his mask on the line

quote:

Reflecting on his short-lived role in the huge Survivor Series match in November – which saw him eliminated first after less than 3 minutes in the men’s Raw vs. SmackDown vs. NXT clash – [WALTER] slammed the spectacle. Describing his involvement in the story as a ‘mistake’, he exclusively told Metro.co.uk: ‘I wasn’t invested in that. I didn’t care. I care about my guys, my group, I care about the sport, but I don’t care about all those people being angry each other.

‘It was a weird match too – three five-men tag teams, and always three guys in the ring. That’s when wrestling turns from competition to putting acrobats in a circus to do a show. “There’s 15 of you, you’ve got to do something.” ‘

I'd still bet that WALTER is one of the NXT guys in the rumble if he's in town for World's collide. I'd guess there could be as many as 5 NXT entrants, my guess would be him, a returning Velveteen Dream as a soft call-up, definitely Lee and probably Balor and Riddle.

Velveteen Dream being called up before he wins the NXT Title would be loving depressing, he's one of their best homegrown talents in eons and should keep getting pushed in NXT

Oh for gently caress's sake, I forgot all about the baby man with no knees. This may happen, but I would want Cain and WALTER to look at each other as if it's a mirror image and do a whole bit first.

I think if Heyman cuts a promo before the rumble starts, that's a good indicator that Brock will be out of there real quick.

WWE have signed a new TV deal for one hour Raws/Smackdowns and NXT UK to be broadcast on Channel 5 in the UK, the first time the shows have ever been available on Freeview

e: Also for that segment where the Fiend cut off Bryan's hair they had a couple of dudes with razors under the ring and used his actual hair :psyduck:

Also to put Total Divas and Miz and Mrs on the My5 VOD service. I'd be amazed if this didn't also mean Impact is getting chucked from 5. I think this'll be the first time any WWE stuff has been on free TV in the UK since Sunday Night Heat was on Channel 4.

He eliminates everybody and then eliminates himself after taking a bribe from DiBiase, allowing IRS to win.

This sets up IRS vs The Fiend at Wrestlemania.

This could be the most one-sided fight since 1973 when Ali faced an eighty-foot tall mechanical Joe Frazier. My memory isn't what it used to be, but I think the entire Earth was destroyed.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Here's a way for WWE to incorporate their favourite angle into the Royal Rumbles.

Rusev or Lashley win the mens, Liv or Lana wins the womens. Winners become power couple, losers are now chasing the belts, (as well as love.)

Boom! the cuck stuff is now legitimately Main Event status. So people have moreno reasons to complain about it being featured prominently on the shows.

How long has this Rusev/Lana angle been going for now? Feels like forever.

The Rey/Andrade matches have been like this for like a year now, they have great chemistry together and keep seem to be working towards a big Mask vs. Hair/Title style blow-off at a PPV... and then the whole thing gets wrapped up on some random Raw and then like 3 months later they start up again and the whole thing repeats.
