Obviously it's handled on a case by case scenario. But basically if someone got called out, or has a reputation for inappropriate behavior, (and there is enough weight behind it) they are not welcome to perform. Quote

Big surprise return at the end of Roman vs Cena, to build to a Saudi show in the middle of the week. Also, what's up the eyes on that graphic? Quote
Perry Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) The Saudi cards have turned into those Rebellion and Insurrextion shows that we used to get over here. What happened to the big novelty matches with the legends? Crown Jewel 2021 Universal Championship Match: Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar WWE Championship Match: Big E. vs. Drew McIntyre RAW Tag Team Championships Match RKBro vs. AJ Styles & Omos SmackDown Women’s Championship Match: Becky Lynch vs. Bianca Belair vs. Sasha Banks Hell in a Cell Match: Edge vs. Seth Rollins No Holds Barred Match: Bobby Lashley vs. Goldberg King of the Ring Finals: Finn Bálor vs. Xavier Woods Queen’s Crown Finals: Zelina Vega vs. Doudrop Mansoor v Ali Edited October 19, 2021 by Perry Quote

Well there's Lesnar, Goldberg and Edge for starters. The comparison to UK PPV's is absolutely ridiculous. Reigns vs. Lesnar is the biggest match they could possibly promote not containing The Rock. It's bigger than their Mania main events. Quote
Perry Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 Seeing Edge and Goldberg is no longer a novelty. I'd rather see Hunter lace up his boots again. Take the Reigns/Lesnar match out, you have pretty much got a pointless Rebellion card. Quote

The man was just in hospital with a heart problem! The show isn't as full-on bonkers as dragging in Tyson Fury or random sumo blokes, but I imagine that's a combination of them managing expectations as to what a "big" card looks like and the pandemic preventing some people from travelling.

Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted October 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted October 19, 2021 Those Rebellion cards were famously filled with Hell In A Cell grudge matches with 3 months build behind em. Quote

It might not be a novelty but they are the legends they have who can still go. Edge/Rollins is the blow-off to the second biggest feud on Smackdown inside the cell. Big E/McIntyre would be a PPV main event on it's own. Lashley's the previous champ taking on a legend in Goldberg. The Smackdown women's title match is big for that division and the tag title match is two of their best 4 teams. I'm not interested in watching it but it's what they have. These are pretty much all of their biggest names. Quote

A new King of the ring being crowned The first ever Queen crowns (effectively Queen of the Ring) being handed out A Hell in a cell match that has been built over months and is more fitting of the Cell then anything we've had in years. If anything This card is closer to a Wrestlemania than a throwaway Uk PPV that didn't even get a mention on Raw or Smackdown the weeks leading up or the weeks after they happened Quote
Paid Members Supremo Posted October 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted October 19, 2021 When was the last Hell in a Cell match that happened at the natural culmination of a feud rather than because it was a specific time of the year? It’s got to be at least a decade. For that reason alone this feels like a huge novelty, whatever you think about Edge or Seth as performers or their feud overall. Multi-month-feud-ending Hell in a Cell match doesn’t scream non-canon UK PPV to me. Quote
