FUM Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 6 hours ago, Wrasslin said: Here's the issue. The booking of this is a nightmare. Smackdown can't lose everything but should Brock or The Shield be losing to anyone at this stage? Are you going to bin off Asuka's unbeaten streak (assuming she's on the team) so Smackdown can win the women's match. Is Baron corbin (who's feuding with Sin Cara) gonna go over the Miz who has been feuding with the Shield? Isn't Asuka's streak advertised as "never been pinned or submitted". Could have her DQ'ed or whatever else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrasslin Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 They could but kind of waters down the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TildeGuy~! Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Will Asuka even be in the match? I thought Raw would like up with Alicia Fox, Sasha Banks, Bayley, Nia Jax and Mickie James? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doog Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Styles vs Mahal for the WWE Title has been announced for Smackdown in Manchester next week. Doubt the title is changing hands as its a UK show but it’s odd this was scheduled for the December PPV and has been pushed up - they’d also already announced Rusev v Styles for a shot on the Survivor Series team next week. Probably a ratings ploy but Mahal could potentially be hurt? Lesnar v Styles has a much better feel about it than Mahal mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 2, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted November 2, 2017 Isn't it more likely because they have a Styles/Mahal programme at the moment, but need it done and dusted in time for Mahal VS Lesnar? Just something quick to tie the champ over because there are only so many Heyman promos you can have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love-Wilcox Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 More likely they're just feeding Styles to Jinder to make him look strong before his big match with Lesnar. It's sad that I even have to type a sentence like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how shit does it make Angle look for not picking her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She leaves Asuka out because she's crazy, gets a kicking from Asuka for it in the aftermath? (Might have imagined that, though...) They missed a golden opportunity to have Big E come out to Jive Soul Bro on Smackdown, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it definitely not a dark match? If not, not a chance that AJ is winning, I suppose they will have the AJ/Rusev qualifier the week after.

They might get around that by saying it's Alicia Fox picking the team as she's the captain, and doesn't want Asuka stealing her spotlight or something? Bit of a feud to keep Asuka busy and away from the title for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrasslin Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 You're probably both right. Would be a good way to keep her out of the title race for a bit. She can paste her and then Nia. Then win the women's rumble (if it happens). Should be simple enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the backstage skit but didn't get round to watching the rest of the show, but really hoped they'd give him that music. Damn shame. Am I right in thinking they no longer have the rights? They had the video on the Network at one point but then had it removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gadge Posted November 3, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted November 3, 2017 I was expecting to find out Styles vs Mahal was going to be a dark match, then I saw Shane McMahon announced it on Twitter so I am now guessing it's on the show proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daaaaaad! Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 So has anything been said about the previously booked Rusev vs. AJ match? All seems a bit odd. If it's not a dark match I'm thinking it could be a wellness suspension for Jinder, based on zero evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King of Old School Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 They have just announced the india tour with jinder headlining, not a chance he is dropping the belt. The thought of Brock/AJ is mouthwatering though, would love to see that down the line.

Wrasslin Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 AJ wins the belt and drops if back after Survivor Series. Everyone is happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
