A tag team match where AJ Styles can lose the title by Shane McMahon getting pinned would be pretty loving WCW of them.

Have you loving seen this loving storyline for the past 6 months? Combined with Shane's character direction, him adding himself to the match in a hot headed way is.......well, it's at least consistent. So they might not do it for that reason!

so does Shane have any influence on the booking or is this because road dogg thinks there’s a chance in a hell Shane will be in charge after vince dies

I believe all reports are that Shane is just another on-screen talent. He's paid millions a year for this.

It's very cool and good that the booking here is to always do the very stupidest thing. Tons of interference? How about adding more people to ringside? Wait, they're interfering too? Okay add even more people to ringside!

so I guess Bryan’s going along with this because he knows he’s leaving the company when his contract expires and he doesn’t give a gently caress anymore? idk

It's gonna be so good. It'll be the first NJPW PPV I'm watching as it airs, and my first Wrestle Kingdom that I'm not watching 9 months after the fact!

In contrast, I'm not paying for the network even for the Royal Rumble. THE ROYAL RUMBLE!

Honestly, when I read the dirt sheet stuff about him being "sick" and needing an IV on New Years Day, it seemed pretty obvious to me that he was hungover as gently caress or still drunk from NYE or something

Speaking of, I've never understood why Shane has been getting involved in KO's matches for months to stop meddling, but never once did anything about the Jinder's title defenses that all ended with interference. The only way that makes any sense is if Shane was the heel.

AJ and KO or Sami could have a good match if Shane and Bryan stayed in the back. That's all it would take, as well as a good effort out of both AJ and KO cuz they don't typically have good matches together.

Imagine if the AJ vs Cena matches had constant interferences, ref distractions, ref bumps, random stipulations, and rollup finishes.

Hey since Jericho will be at the royal rumble, maybe we'll see the 2 year anniversary reunion of Y2AJ. Time to dig those tshirts out of storage.
