Paid Members Supremo Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 If you watched that Rumble match with no prior knowledge of WWE, you’d be left with little doubt that Braun Strowman is the guy on Raw and Daniel Bryan is the guy on Smackdown. Plus, once again, it needs to be said - Big Cass is delivering big time. That trash talk after he threw Daniel out was really great. You wonder how much reality he’s putting into this act of frustrated dickhead because it feels completely authentic so far. He already feels much higher on the totem pole than when he got injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BigJag Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 Yep. There is definitely something different about him this time around. He could have easily powdered out after his knee buckled when he entered the ring. He toughed it out though. Recovered from being dropped on his head too. He looked as if he had a part to play last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTXRussomark Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 He'd completely lost the deer in the headlights eyes he had the last time I saw him, which admittedly was when he was still teaming with Enzo. He looked good last night. I thought the crowd set-up was a shame - it seemed like those in the stands were into the show and making noise all night but they were so far back it didn't really translate to TV. Instead you had a bunch of guys facing the hard camera who were either stood chatting with their backs to the ring for half the night, or just looked completely bored. I guess for that kind of money they can do what they want though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Also, didn’t they say those on ground level were all in some way related to the royal family? Makes sense they were a little... aloof. There were a few who were bang into the Rumble match, though. People lost their shit for Orton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense they were a little... aloof. The Saudi Royal family is over 10,000 people so I'm guessing they were all royalty. It's no doubt why the floor seating was so little, to separate them from the general populace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Cod Eye Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 Even though it was a long 'ol, overbooked show, I really enjoyed the Rumble itself. Being able to sit and watch it live with my kids at 5pm was a novelty too. Was wondering though, is the big Sumo bloke who they wheeled out someone significant to the Saudis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love-Wilcox Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Bryan’s chest tho, Jesus that looked painful. The show overall had a bit of a funny feel to it, like it was both a house show and Wrestlemania at the same time but with that said it was still very enjoyable for the most part. And thank you Titus O’Neil for that magnificent moment, it will live in my heart forevermore.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 First time I've watched a Rollins match in a while, how long has he had the worst dives in the entire wrestling business? He basically gives them an incredibly light hug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love-Wilcox Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 And was it just me or was Michael Cole actually really good all night ? It sounded like he was genuinely enjoying himself for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from saying Sgt Slaughter had passed away he wasn’t that bad. Hes constant calling Nakamura “Shin” pissed me off though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 "The King of Strong Style is now THE KING OF LOW BLOWS" Cole was his usual dreadful self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 I thought he was unbearable as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrodyGraham Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I always found Cole to be awful until he did the UK tourney. He was excellent in that, without the distraction of 278 other things to put over or aging lunatics screaming in his ears. I imagine Vince was right on form last night as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Fox Piss Posted April 28, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 28, 2018 One off the Saudi try out guys was pissing charisma. Body off a 13 year girl, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
