Wait, no fucker has cared about Survivor Series for years anyway. The best 5 on 5 tag was that one on Raw in 2000.

Paid Members air_raid Posted October 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2019 Is Orton still supposed to be SmackDown? If so, love that he’ll be captaining a team competing with Raw’s champion captaining a team, so close to Survivors. Make sure Cole gets the memo.

Meltzer said today that one of the ideas, if they can close the deal, is to use this to get to Brock Vs. Cain Velasquez.

DJM Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 With Hell in a Cell this Sunday, there only seems to be three matches booked for the show: Seth Rollins vs. "The Fiend" Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks Bryan and Reigns vs. Rowan and Harper They are going to need to announce a lot of matches on Smackdown on Friday. I guess that they could throw together Lashley vs. Rusev, another Styles/Alexander match, Bayley vs. Charlotte Flair, Revival vs. New Day again, Nakamaura vs. Ali again, and Gulak vs. Lio Rush.

TheToeSucker Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 I got a sick thrill out of seeing Brock murder those two jabroinis. Keep doing it Bork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the opening angle with Brock, Rey and Dominic. But Miz TV drove me nuts, representative of everything I hate about WWE. Hogan and Flair doing their thing and teasing an old man scrap was one thing, at least the crowd was into it. But the tease of a confrontation leads to Miz announcing this Team match, seemingly on the fly judging from their first reactions, and then Hogan and Flair already have captains lined up somehow, who are waiting with their music ready. Miz wasn’t announcing it on the fly, he said that Hulk and Flair already knew about this match before they came out. It’s just baffling that it was so incongruous with what came before that point, as though they were having a falling out there and then, and hadn’t just set up a team match backstage. To be fair to Miz and whoever scripted this, nobody seemed to be on the same page with the awkward interactions from the start, so it’s possible that one of the old boys just went way off the trail from how it was all meant to happen. Lashley waiting for Lana was cued very poorly as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had an emotional hook to it and a real sense of unhinged danger from Lesnar. I thought they put a lot of effort into making it feel different. Fair dues, but from where I'm sitting it's one of the standard issue Lesnar angles. One that feels like it's been in about a dozen of his big angles since 2012. Brock smashes shit up, officials/ringside personnel come to try and stop him, innocents targeted, Heyman pleading, Brock returning to the attack repeatedly. I'm not shitting on it, it was good, but it's something they've demonstrably done with him plenty before. It's one of his things that he does. So I just didn't feel like it was one of the most chaotic angles they've done in years or anything.  Edited October 1, 2019 by Gay as FOOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some good stuff, some shite, and some of it is the same old bland non-story - but they do at least seem to be trying stuff. Like Rick, I really liked Otis in the tag match. Roode works best as a tag team man, and I’ve quite liked Ziggler this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Rick, I really liked Otis in the tag match. Roode works best as a tag team man, and I’ve quite liked Ziggler this year. I was thinking more along the lines of the wrestling divorce curse, with Lana Lashley having a bit of a ring to it. Anyway, I agree about Otis too. He's fast turning into one of my favourites on the roster. Overall Raw was pretty good I thought. The commentary was an improvement. Stuff that happened seemed to feel like it happened for a reason, with a purpose of going somewhere down the line, which so often isn't the case. I loved the opening angle as well, I'll never tire of Brock wrecking fools. I don't know what's going to happen in this Fiend Vs Rollins match. Rollins has looked a total Wally this past while, and conventional booking would say he wins at the PPV. It's way too early though for Wyatt to be losing on this run. I'm not sure how they get out of it, as both men need the win. A non-finish in the cell again maybe? Strowman coming out for revenge on Wyatt? It has me intrigued anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted October 1, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2019 The way they’ve only announced three matches for the Pay Per View, and the way all the focus being on Friday leaves them very little time to add many more matches, I’m hoping they tighten things up on Sunday and give us a two and a half hour show. Do some dark matches and a Kick-off show if you want, but this week in particular isn’t going to benefit from another dragged-out four hours coming after Raw, NXT and Smackdown. I’d be stunned if the finish for Bray vs. Seth doesn’t involve Finn in Demon makeup appearing in the Cell for a non-finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted October 1, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 1, 2019 Rusev will get Lana up the duff and Lana will happily announce it on TMZ and Vince will go fucking spare. I don't know why they hate Rusev and Lana being in a healthy happy relationship. I'm betting because Rusev is punching in their eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
