Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted June 10, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted June 10, 2023 Overall - The Bloodline business was top notch as expected, and the opener was a fantastic bout.m while the main event also delivered. However, the majority of the rest of the show failed to deliver this week. Still a great show, but hit up YouTube for the best bits and don’t bother with the whole caboodle. 👍 Bloodline Business - More top telly this week even if they didn’t quite deliver what was advertised in the sense of Jey delivering his decision - I’m totally ok with this tough, as they waved more than enough of a carrot to dangle in front of us to tune in again next week when Roman’s back in the building. Hey vs Austin Theory was fine and dandy and the chaos around Jimmy’s interference add further intrigue. All of the teases between Jey, Sami and Heyman during the show were great too. This week was more about edging rather than ejaculating, but it was still fun! 👍 Santos Escobar vs Mustafa Ali - Excellent effort from both and they provided an absolute ripper. Scary moment on the outside - Escobar’s hurricanrana almost went horribly wrong as he caught his own head on the ring steps on the rotation. Thankfully he made it out unscathed. Blinder of a bout. 👍 Bayley vs Michin - Fine without being incredible, but plenty of effort on display from both. 👎 Women’s title business - The new belt looks shite. Bianca looks white for being spoken to like a naughty schoolgirl by Adam Pearce and not getting involved. As sure as night follows day, a new title is essentially created and Charlotte rocks up. There’s some intrigue in what happens next in terms of matches, but the execution here failed to satisfy. 👎 Women’s tag title business - Poor promos and there’s no intrigue in this at all. Two sets of women’s tag titles in the gutter. 👎 Butch vs Baron Corbin - Pleased Butch is in the MITB ladder match, but that aside, Corbin sucks the life out of everything he appears in. Match wasn’t long enough to be of any merit. 👎 Iyo Sky vs Shotzi - The right result but again, an mismatch in terms of opponents in terms of quality - Shotzi isn’t up the same standard as some of her counterparts and it shows on a weekly basis.

TheScarlettChad Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 What's intriguing about Charlotte and Askua? She'll beat Askua as is tradition and then bugger off again, When she gets cashed in on. I won't lie, it was funny seeing Charlotte just rock up and get a title match. They aren't even trying lmao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, it’s better the background colour has been taken out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 They probably want to put on as big a match as possible while over here. Name a realistic bigger/better match, that will draw a better reaction, and not have a foregone conclusion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Can't stand the W belts, just so shite. I saw the branding reasoning mentioned in here I think, that's an explanation but not a justification for this garbage. AEW's championship has 'AEW' in big letters on it, no room for confusion as to what promotion it represents. Yet it has gold and jewels and looks like something you'd actually bother wanting to win - it's not just the company logo with some straps attached.

TheScarlettChad Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 The WHC has grown on me, won't lie. It has the big WWE in the middle of course but its also got elements of the old belt. Its better than the Roman belt is what I'm saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members air_raid Posted June 11, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted June 11, 2023 I’m well confused. I’ve only just clocked that Rhea took the “SmackDown Women’s Championship” to Raw with her instead of swapping belts with Belair like Lynch and Charlotte did that time. What have they been calling Mami’s belt on TV? And what will they call it now?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd put money and probably be wrong on them having a shiny Womens world heavyweight championship which looks quite like the men's but with a white strap waiting for her this Monday.

DavidB6937 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 I've watched that segment about 20 times since I got up. I'm obsessed. Damn tears in my eyes. Absolutely fucking glorious. Part of me wishes they'd done that on the SmackDown here but I probably would've melted in a puddle of sheer joy and not even made it to MITB.

d-d-d-dAz Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 “…and I’m out too” Fuck. ing. hell. At what point do you have to call a doctor if your goosebumps (and erection) won’t go away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King of Old School Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 If Jey Uso doesn't dethrone Roman now then what's the point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 (edited) I’m not sure it’s going to be Jey, as it’s very much taking shape as a ‘Jey doesn’t want to lead without Jimmy’ type story of them choosing to be a tag team, but I think odds should start tumbling on Solo. Hidden in plain sight throughout, watched it all… slowly looking more pained as this drama happens around him. If they’re content with Cody just being king of Monday’s, they may just start looking at Solo as the last man standing. I think it’s probably worth taking nostalgia out of it for a second and recognising that Roman might actually be the best performer of all time. His mannerisms throughout were exceptional.

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 You gotta love the ego on Roman, gets a shiny new belt to solidify his reign, still keeps the two belts he already had just for shits and giggles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
