Niners Fan in CT Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I can't agree with that.. Naomi has been very over of late. Alexa Bliss got over too. There was interest in her feud with Becky. There was interest in the Natty/Nikki feud as well. The matches themselves could have been better but that was part of letting them figure it out. It was a young division. But they were all improving and all establishing themselves. To say it was "divas level" I don't agree with that at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_W_P Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Wait are we really questioning how SDL will handle multiple women outside of the title picture? Didn't they just finish a run of like... 3 months with Becky/Micky/Alexa, Natalya/Nikki/Carmella and the slow build of Naomi? If Nikki is leaving and Alexa is on RAW then Charlotte on SDL will be great. They can build the show around her. I would even say she will main event multiple SDL PPV's in 2017. Meanwhile the other girls can all get built up and maybe we get an Asuka debut after SummerSlam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Two questions: 1. Since I haven't watched in forever does Miz still have the IC belt? Because it would be so fucking fitting to have that around Nak's waist. 2. Are they really gonna redo the Chamber of Horrors match from WCW? Because they should.

Edit: Didn't pay much attention to match tonight, saw Corbin beat Ambrose, assumed he won the title. Oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thibs Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 This might be hyperbole and a result of me being up for about 18 hours straight-- but as god as my witness, Nakamura is lighting in a bottle. i have not seen a reaction like that for a new wrestler since Rock or Austin. And he literally just showed up to the main roster. If they can manage to book him the right way, he will be getting attitude-era Austin level pops.

Eivion Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Glad Nakamura debuted. I wish Tye stayed in NXT to win the belt off of Roode. I have trouble seeing him succeed on the main roster. It looks like AJ has finally turned face. I want him to stay on SDL purely from a decent booking standpoint. Realistically though he really has nothing left but an Orton feud which I don't want to see. Glad Corbin is IC champ. Hopefully the shake up sees Sheamus & Cesaro put on SDL. I would love to see Charlotte or/and Nia Jax moved as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Tye has always been a mechanic there to help teach the green boys how to work. The fact he's gotten this far is credit to his gimmick but I don't really see a need to push him beyond lower card utility guy that helps the more inexperienced workers and those coming up from NXT acclimatize. I had goosebumps during the Nakamura debut. Nakamura and Bray Wyatt interactions FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I was just thinking about how AMAZING Nakamura-Reigns is going to be. Also, that Tye Dillinger debut was amazing. Dillinger had that look of a guy who thought his WWE ship had sailed absolutely living out his dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the pop he would have gotten if the lights just went out in the middle of the Miz promo and the music started. I'm thrilled that he's on the main roster, but man, it's like they didn't trust that people wouldn't know who he was unless a violinist showed up first. Yeah, like Vince has the slightest clue how to book Nakamura. I expect him to be jobbing to Baron Corbin and suddenly blowing green mist in a matter of months. I hope I'm wrong.

Zac_Fu Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I want to see AJ and Nak go Broadway in NOLA, but it would be a shadow of what we deserve and nowhere close to what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I know they can fuck up sliced bread, but Vince was probably creaming his pants over that reaction and too afraid to touch it. Right now, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, if WWE didn't have anything to do with sliced bread and then were offered it, yes, they would fuck it up, because it wasn't their idea in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, we got the IC title switch we should have had yesterday, we got good debuts for Dillinger and Nakamura, and even if AJ is leaving, it looks like the talent swap has a good chance to fill some of the major holes this show has. Which is funny cuz Xavier...I'll see myself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Holy fuck, Nak's debut is probably the first time I have gotten the goose bumps during a debut since Taker showed up. Nak is super fucking over.. Violin dude should be put on the payroll and always play live when Nak comes to the ring. And what Sammo~! said. Nak vs. Miz was the feud I didn't know I needed until today. Too bad for Miz that he'll get the short end of that stick. I would've like to have seen Miz build a little heel momentum before being fed to another super worker.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or knee, depending on how he decides to attempt dislocating his jaw/fracturing his orbital bone/etc. From what I've seen with the Boma Ye/Kinshasa he likes to switch it up a bit.
