No, they shouldn't. I don't think it does WWE many favours to do something stupid like that just to play "LOL GOTCHA" at backwards cultures who are giving them money. And if they did do it and Finn Balor got executed, you'd be complaining about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably would be executed and what a sad, backward and fucked up thing that would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted April 29, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 29, 2018 I wonder if Goldust had any trepidation about performing. You could also sense a bit of awkwardness when Fandango caught Tyler Breeze in his arms. Like an arena full of homophobic grandads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the Goldust of 96 would likely have received a much different reaction - if he would be on the show at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Curious Orange Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 8 hours ago, Loki said: Without meaning to sound like some conspiracy nut, but I'm really dubious that they accidentally showed that trailer with women in. They've been meticulous so far in abiding by the very straight rules that the Saudis set out about no women.  Everything is planned down to the minute in these shows.  I think they did it deliberately, knowing they'd get away with it as it was a live broadcast.  I reckon they understand that they've received very negative mainstream press over this, and this was a carny way of a nod and a wink to that. AJ Styles entrance graphic at Wrestlemania had him as Universal Champion. I think you're overthinking it and it was just overlooked in the logistics of putting such an elaborate production overseas and this close to Wrestlemania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Your Fight Site Posted April 29, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 29, 2018 Finally finished watching this in instalments over the weekend. Where was Kane? I’m sure he was one of the first entrances of the Rumble announced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unlike WWE to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did wonder when it was being set up if he was actually going to do it and how it would be a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philjax Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 So are they gonna do this Rumble every year now? I'm not against it, although it's too soon after the normal one so maybe move it to later in the year. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 while he could have been kayfabing, didn’t Cole say it was 82F/28C degrees in the ring. Move it to plater in the year, that’s going to be horrible for the guys, even if they’re are mostly in their speedos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted April 30, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted April 30, 2018 Did WWE do anything with the female roster this weekend? Don't begrudge the girls a weekend off while the company is busy selling out but it seems like a massive missed opportunity to do a women only special. Not only would it have done good business live and on the network but it would have sent a subtle message. Watched the start of the show live on Friday and the rest throughout Saturday. Funny how the crowd reactions absolutely died after Cena/HHH. They did a fantastic job of hardly letting it appear that the floor was empty and the acoustics weren't bad but it was clear who the stars are. Cena, HHH, Taker, Orton, Mysterio and Jericho. Lesnar, Reigns, Henry and Strowman reactions' weren't bad. Everyone else was crickets. Rumble was decent enough with Titus being the obvious highlight. Two every year will kill the real one. If they're collecting big money though, they won't care. Matches were fine. Nothing special. Results, however cheap, all made sense. Cena/HHH was the highlight for me.
