Good news, its round robin style, so they'll get to lose to every other team on the list.

A round robin tournament is an interesting thing for WWE, have they ever done one before?

Also, Jinder and Foxy, SHOCKINGLY, have some history!

I have to say that Bryan holding his arm like that at the end of his Almas match made me worried that something had happened and he either hurt his arm or could not feel it anymore.

Welcome to literally any time Daniel Bryan has sold a move since his first major WWE injury. Dude makes me so worried because he is both amazing at selling and often injured.

Shame MMC is filmed on Tuesdays, I woulda liked to see Ronda team up with Dean Ambrose or something. I’d settle for Ronda + Roman too. Then again her being in would spoil the winner like Asuka being in the last one did

The shows at the Joe were always packed. Good thing LCA decided to gently caress up ticketing this year. That'll put butts in the seats.

why the gently caress isn't the match that could totally end in DQ with Joe and AJ taking place in a fuckin Cell?

Instead of using a black tarp they should utilize that amazingly bad looking real time CGI poo poo they've been doing and green screen in a crowd that will actually be cheering when Roman comes out so the visuals match the audio

Give it time and they'll be rotoscoping in a crowd all the time and then Vince will have finally found the people who will cheer Roman.

B-Team losing the tag titles is awful. God forbid we have a silly fun gimmick actually hold the titles instead of 2 heat vacuums.

Out here, everything hurts.




Maybe they're trying to kill the heat on the titles completely so they can quietly merge the Raw and SD tag titles.

I mean, that's what Ziggler is -for-, right? Killing heat?

Why's that? I'm in Detroit right now and a bartender spoke very highly of it, though that was mostly in contrast to the "getting murdered" aspect of the Joe.

I went to Hell in a Cell there last year, and the upper bowl was cramped as gently caress (soooooo little space)

Not sure how that happens with a brand new arena.

The ticket prices are pretty dumb too

Very disappointed in 205 Live. The only mention of the AoP was Drake telling Cedric that how Drake spends his Mondays is none of his business. There was a segment earlier in the show where Drake said that if Gulak and co went too far, he would be "forced to handle it" which constitutes a promise to me to show Rezar punching Jack Gallagher so hard that he dies, but they reneged on that promise.
