Callum1993 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Surprised there's no topic on this yet.  So we've got:  Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins for the WWE Title  Roman Reigns vs Bray Wyatt  John Cena vs Kevin Owens for the U.S Title  Randy Orton vs Sheamus  The New Day vs The Prime Time Players for the Tag Titles.  Plus King Barrett vs R Truth on the pre-show again.  Should be a pretty interesting show Not really looking forward to anything other than the main event but with plenty of rumors floating around regarding Summerslam and potential returns it's intriguing.  I'd imagine there'll be matches added involving Cesaro, Rusev and the Divas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Clint Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 They should've stuck Sheamus in a better feud, Orton is just stuck in no man's land at the moment and he's about as boring as he's ever been. But yeah it's all about the main event tonight and I'm also looking forward to the rubber match with Cena and Owens. Wyatt V Reigns could also surprise us. Whatever happens tonight there's gonna be a huge turn around storyline wise with Sting and Taker set to appear on Raw tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoryFice Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I'm not particularly interested in this show, but since I've now got the network and it's a local holiday tomorrow, I might actually try to watch it live. Â Honesty can't recall the last show I watched live outwith a Wrestlemania or Royal Rumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Ryback got a staph infection so it's off, just postponed I assume, I expect we'll see Big Show v Ambrose cos they built for that with a table spot on Smackdown. Plus hopefully a womens segment  The two 'feud' matches have been so poorly built. As it stands, every living wrestling legend on the planet would have to interfere to get me into Wyatt/Reigns, and some dead ones would have to turn up to get me into Orton/Sheamus. Face Orton is boring as piss.  Really hyped for Owens/Cena III, hopefully we get a Cesaro match too. Lesnar match can go so many ways but should be an exciting match, hopefully the outcome is something that's not even crossed anyone's mind as I'm not sure I like the sound of a lot of the speculation going around.

Zebra Kid Mark Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Cheers Linus and sj552. Â Face Orton is ten times better than the authority heel Orton playing second fiddle to Rollins. A feud with Kevin Owens might bring out the best in him....or it might suck the life out of Owens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snitsky's back acne Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Courtesy of Jim Ross's Twitter:I'd love to see one, major show w/talents selling, not kicking out of multiple finishes & no DQ's or Count Outs. How about you?Don't think we're going to get this tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted July 19, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted July 19, 2015 Hopefully this all leads to Vince hilariously losing all sense again and spending the match telling commentary to remind us WCW was full of child molesters and rum-runners. Â Not sure I'm into Sting v Taker like most are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Not sure I'm into Sting v Taker like most are. As Jim Cornette said on a podcast last year - 'What's the finish?'. He has a point. Say the match takes place at Mania - If Sting loses then he's a two time loser in his only WWE matches. If Undertaker loses then it further tarnishes his Mania legacy. Its fine booking the match but if you don't have a definite finish (and, hey, maybe they do) then don't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its fine booking the match but if you don't have a definite finish (and, hey, maybe they do) then don't do it. Â So in essence, we wouldn't be sure who was winning? Sounds like a selling point to me. Genuine intrigue as to who wins for both casuals who just watch it and for cynical smarky cunts like us who analyze everything and think about the booking and keeping people strong and all that other shit that I wish I could just switch off inside my own head. Â To be honest, neither of those reasons matter going forward. The point of that match is to make people pay to see it, not anything to do with long term booking. Undertaker's legacy is that he was undefeated at WrestleMania for 23 years. It's "was" now, and ever more, and so does it really matter if he loses to Sting, now? Once you make your dollar off Sting vs Taker, it doesn't truly matter if Sting loses either. I don't think there's a match left for him out of the rest of the roster that I'm bothered to see him have. Sting and Taker is a "times and places" affair that doesn't ring true with a Cena, and Real Estate Steve is not getting ragdolled by Brock Lesnar at his age. Â Come to think of it, it matters even less for the loser if it's going to be their last match, which I wouldn't rule out for either of them if the match happens. Even though in my heart, I still want Sting's last match ever to be with Ric Flair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
