After rewatching Roman's spear on Dolph many times I can conclusively say Roman spins in midair.

Roman literally Psycho Crushered Dolph Ziggler, who sold like death. That loving rules.

I was going to make a joke about WWE trying to top the Roman/Jinder match with Roman/Lashley, but I have no idea who would actually make a good opponent for Roman. Maybe Drew???

Roman always throws good spears coming down the ramp. I think it's because the incline allows him to actually get enough speed to make it look good, whereas in the ring not so much.

Knowing WWE's inept ability to read a crowd I've no doubt that was meant to be a Bayley heel turn. They can still course correct but I doubt they'll want to.

I would be so down for a long-term buddy thing between Braun/KO where Kevin doesn't even want to be friends but Braun's really into it and Kevin's too scared to say no. While we're at it Finn can go back to being his old dickish Bullet Club personality with Corbin as his skeezy backup.

It's kind of weird because Bayley is the one who initiated physicality with Sasha both last week and tonight and that almost always indicates a heel turn, but the announcer's were treating her behavior kind of neutrally and trying to justify it was built up, had enough frustration. And her reaction to Kurt afterward where he threatened to fire her if she doesn't attend counseling next week is kind of face-ish. It feels like it could still go either way depending on what Sasha does next week.

Sasha initiated physicality in that locker room three months ago lol

I would because AJ's feuds and matches since getting the belt have not been good and there's a huge chunk of talent on the Smackdown roster who deserve a shot to carry the brand*

Bayley made her Raw debut August 22 2016

672 days it took Creative to decide to turn her heel

I know what you're thinking and I agree, I am surprised they waited so long. Definitely the most patience they've showed in a long long time

I'm extremely confused. I thought the Extreme Rules match was supposed to be a #1 contender's match, but it was apparently supposed to be a multiman match for the title? Now it's being canceled because reasons???

Cavauro

If I have been reading correctly, it's cancelled because brock won't be facing whoever wins that match within the next few months so they aren't going to pretend otherwise

Meltzer said he didn't really know. But the local advertising for Extreme Rules has Braun Strowman vs Kevin Owens in a Steel Cage.

Dave said around 2 weeks ago that while the Summerslam main event plan was still him defending vs Reigns, Vince was noncommittal about not just that but any Brock appearances in general. As in not only was he not advertised for Extreme Rules (he was never advertised for Extreme Rules despite any claims on Raw or their official Twitter), he's technically not advertised after that. In terms of appearance dates for the year, he may legit already have used them all depending on how many were added when he signed that extension

If I remember right, didn't the new champion NOT defend their title (or it was vacant for that period?) until it was won back... by Naomi?

-The Bludgeon Brothers to appear on “Miz TV”
-Becky Lynch goes one-on-one with Peyton Royce
-Xavier Woods of The New Day squares off with Rusev
-The cast of “GLOW” are coming to SmackDown LIVE

Will Miz be made to be Daniel Bryan's tag partner?

Proud of Brock, Brock's got leverage and he's a drat fool if he doesn't use it. The longer Brock has the title without being stripped the more ludicrous it will be when they eventually do it, or they have to pay him a ton of money to wrestle.

gently caress WWE, they're the market leader and they don't know what they're doing. I hope people chant 'Thirty Days' any time they mention the belt.

Bad for WWE Fans, it'd be nice if I had something compelling to watch, but I don't think it's Brock's fault if it is not compelling.
