The King of Old School

Apparently the talent in the ring had no clue he was coming out 😂

This is brilliant, the tears in here will be fantastic too.

After a thumping Rovers away win yesterday and now this, I am very much convinced that there is a god after all 😁

Shotzi is up there with the worst characters they have ever had.

That opening segment was horrible.

I'm guessing they want Dragon Lee to lose more than Carlito for some reason.

On commentary (Rush vs White) they confirmed that the two top scorers in each league will face on in a semi final, then go on to the grand final at World's End.
 

So 1st in the blue league faces 2nd in the gold league and vice versa? With the winners facing at Worlds End.

Really dislike that they have over complicated things yet again with this tournament by making a new title for it and involving the ROH ones.

This should have been another vehicle for Swerve on his way to MJF, have him win this tournament and go on to Full Gear to win the title.

Wrestling, probably.

I wonder what the long term plan is with Gunther. It’s fine ploughing through the vanilla little people but sooner or later the bully has to meet his match. Logically I’d build it up to Brock at Mania and get the IC strap off him. That belt is useless on Brock but there comes a point where it will hold Gunther back and if you throw it on Brock you get the great spectacle of Brock vs Logan Paul belt vs belt. No one looks weak losing to Brock. Give Gunther the MITB suit case and let him move up the card.

I quite like the thought of him winning the Rumble, and the World Title at Mania whilst he's IC Champ.

Have him vacate the IC Title on the Monday after Mania undefeated due to World Title commitments.

I always dislike the losing the midcard title and then challenging for the World Title straight away, I think this would be a bit different.

I don't think Nakamura is fighting anyone at Survivors, more that he starts a programme with Cody the day after,

If Cody takes home the belt at Mania then a feud with Orton straight after sounds good to me.

ITV don't deserve wrestling.

Yeah Jey's reaction to Orton being announced was great. Was half expecting him to start whooping around the ring pretending last year didn't happen.

Nakamura/Cody then to get him through to the Rumble is my guess.

Brandon Cutler said earlier on Twitter that The Young Bucks are taking some time away from Wrestling and they are asking for privacy.

Of course who knows what's real anymore but hopefully nothing serious if true.

Why is he a "horrible cunt" out of interest?

Genuinely don't know what he has or hasn't done, I do think he's incredible in ring though.

Ospreay/Cassidy for the International Title at Wembley sounds good to me.

Also I saw someone suggest the following on twitter about the continental classic..

Something I thought about last night. If Eddie Kingston is defending the ROH & STRONG titles in all of his Continental Classic matches, and he loses them during block play to someone who doesn't make the finals, what happens?

Has the tournament been explained properly yet?!

I hope they push Swerve straight into a title program now with MJF for the next PPV.

He should be the next World Champion for me.

Yeah it was a bit shit.

Both the WWE and the US Title's being on part timers is going to hurt things for the rest of the year, as I don't think either of them will be on Smackdown again until a week or two before the Rumble.

Some good stuff with the Womens division though, I imagine it won't be long before Bayley gets kicked out of that group.

- Great textbook Samoa Joe squash and promo but this story has been a bit muddled. Joe wants to be MJF's tag partner but also wants to beat him for the title? It's weird.

 

I don't think this is weird, I don't think Joe necessarily wants to be MJF's partner, but he will be his partner and help him keep the tag belts in exchange for a guaranteed world title shot.

In reality Joe should be at the back of the line as he lost his opportunity a couple of months back, so this would put him back in the mix again. 

Can understand Cody but the throught of Jey Uso and Orton being mates is a bit far fetched though.

Last time we saw Orton is was Jey and his brother who put him out!

Ol' Tone is giving it the big guns.

This surely has to be Mercedes Moné, right? Either that or the devil will be revealed to be Marty Scurll.

 

If this isn't CM Punk then what's the point?

I really like Garcia.

Would love him to be in that continental tournament and at least get to the final.

Actually I think I would like a Garcia/Danielson final and have them revisit the whole sports entertainer/wrestler thing, with the pair linking up afterwards,

You would think Orton would have to be announced next week or there will be some disappointed souls on Saturday evening.

Wonder who the 5th member of Codys team will be at Survivor Series 😂

Yeah it does look tasty. I'm sure the bit of greenery and the tomatoes on the vine will offend some here though.

 

 

Absolutely.

Has no business being on any fry up plate.

Guarantee it won't be Swerve, that would be too good, plus Hangman will be getting his win back at Full Gear i reckon.

It will be The Kingdom.

There’s a beauty in the fact that it was the Saudi fans that kickstarted the chanting, though.

Excellent.

If the Saudi's want it, surely its going to happen ☺️

Would they throw Orton straight into a War Games match? Seems risky.

Doesn't have to do anything too crazy though does he?

Could be the last man in, hit a few of his signature spots, a few RKO's etc. Match could be done within 5/10 minutes after he comes in.

To be honest I'm surprised that was only 6 years ago, seems like double that to me.
