Kofi owns, and that match was really good and literally had me leaning forward and marking at every near fall. The entire match was good too, however much it sucks that Joe was first out instead of Hardy. I liked the RKO that got AJ, too, even if I wish it was in motion instead of set up, pause to get in position, then down. I only turned on EC during the Ronda match (and then cooked dinner through the Braun match), but I was entertained!

Becky's knee is rapidly turning into a plot tumor. Just have her reveal she's faking it to gently caress with them and then let her kick rear end. Nobody wants to see the badass hero limping around like an idiot, especially after you literally just ended the "BECKY'S KNEE IS HURT" angle the very last week.

Hope the big crowd response for Kofi leads to him getting that big title win sometime in 2019, give him that sweet sweet gold watch reign. I don't expect them to push him right up into a WM title match or anything, but he's surprisingly kind of the perfect guy to beat Bryan for the title so I hope Bryan gets a nice long-ish reign and then drops the title to Kofi at Summerslam.

I loved that double pinning combination the Iiconics used on Naomi. Really cool and logical use of the tornado tag scenario. The kind of spot that makes you surprised you haven’t seen it before!

BGrifter posted:Dear god yes this. I would have been super sad if the weed belt got retired already. I'm guessing they'll go back to the regular one the moment DBry loses it. Well... unless RVD has one last run left in him. They don't need to retire the Weed Belt if Kofi wins it. His character is Jamaican, right?

I honestly thought that's where they were going with that. Pretend to need crutches to get into the ring and use them. She even seemed fine beating Charlotte and Ronda. But she still limped away with the help of two people

Bring in Harper and do New Day vs. Green Day at Fastlane to earn Kofi his Wrestlemania match officially. It would be a cool as hell match and letting Kofi have his brothers in the New Day directly help him earn his Wrestlemania spot would be such good storytelling.

Vandar posted:Why would you break up one of the best stables in the company right now? Mainly because their “rioting” is tipping over a roll of paper (not joking) and highly choreographed small time shenanigans. Ruby looks bored and Liv and Sarah look like they are following the TelePrompTer. I could say it isn’t their fault, but they always hesitate before moving an intern’s iPad a foot away from viewpoint. “So crazy!”

Steve Austin should run into Becky back stage, share a meaningful look with her, and then hand her one of his knee braces to wear.

I still think the funniest criticism of Becky Lynch’s character is that people got all mad that she is self-aware that she’s really popular. Half of her gimmick comes from roasting people on fucken Twitter. Why would she not know that she is popular?

I'm actually starting to wonder if they're just avoiding putting anyone in anything resembling a real match to protect them against injuries. If they're planning to main event WM with this, they're going to push the gently caress out of it PR wise, and the main event thing doesn't work if either Ronda or Becky actually can't work the match. Then again, they're doing all this random crutch violence and nobody told Ronda how to sell getting hit with a weapon.

Yeah this would be a fun WM moment and a huge pop for the Raw/Smackdown after too. Them giving New Day these pretty long interviews gives me some hope that it's possible, even though I don't expect that to be the case. Love that idea of New Day as a team winning a match to get Kofi the title shot too, that'd be like the most New Day thing ever. Also I just realized, as fun as the hemp belt is and it's a lot of fun, it's kind of the perfect rebound from that to have a New Day belt that's just so entirely glammed out, like yellow and purple everywhere and just all kinds of custom art drawn on it and such. Then after that you can transition back to a normal belt, having gone to the two extremes there. Or heck, just have that Hemp belt on hand for a week or two and just have it covered with New Day stickers, art, etc. NowonSA fucked around with this message at 08:09 on Feb 18, 2019 |

the new day theme song is 'good' and 'classic' but it's very 'tired' and i think kofi should get a Hollywood The Rock version of his old theme song, with the same vocals or babymetal vocals.

I will say that them devoting so much time for Kofi after the match gives me hope. They could have ended it with Bryan just holding up the belt and yelling at the crowd, but they really made the moment about Kofi.

I do have to admit it's funny they did a spot where a babyface hits his finisher and then gets pinned twice on this show and it worked once.

I feel really awful for Mustafa if the plan was for him to be an out-of-nowhere rocket to the Mania Main Event, but if there's one man on Earth I am happy to have a chance to steal that spot away it's Kofi. New Day vs Bryan and Rowan (and Harper or Bray?!) would be an incredible feud to lead up to Mania, and seeing somebody who should have been a Main Eventer for the last decade finally reach the top of the mountain against all odds when just a handful of years ago he'd been ready to hang it up would be one hell of a feel good moment. Also if they go all the way with this I want to hear Kofi's original music for his Mania entrance.

Interesting note: Unless you count The Rock, Kofi would be the first black WWE Champion. Edit: If you count the WHC and include the WCW title's lineage in it's history as WWE seems to do, he would be the 4th after , Booker and Mark Henry. But he would be the first in the WWE title's direct lineage. Sanguinia fucked around with this message at 09:23 on Feb 18, 2019 |

Bring back SOS you loving cowards. That last match was so loving good. There were multiple crowd shots of grown men in tears after that match. That's nuts. On the women's tag teams: It's crazy how naturally Naomi and Carmella fit together. If you made a thousand strangers watch the six teams in the match and said "One of these was thrown together at the last minute", maybe four of them would guess it was those two. I maintain my crazy-rear end conspiracy theory that Kofi didn't replace Ali, Jeff replaced Ali.
