But hey, Rowan's got the new cyber sheep mask! Push him to the moon! In Rowan's defense, I do like the steampunk sheep mask. Harper and Rowan need to go an complete path of destruction to prove that Bray's religious rhetoric was just holding back their true evil. I think Bray is just using the cult leader, religious guru for tax exemption purposes from dad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brysynner Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Harper is in the same position Sami Zayn and Becky Lynch are in. They're not in any title picture and they can afford to take losses because no matter what they'll remain over and do fine with merch sales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's a dirty wifebeater, or a doll that says "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" when you pull its string. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I think he was still using a chokeslam when he first appeared in NXT. That was his finisher in the indys. His new finisher was really underwhelming. I thought he was setting up for some sort of swinging side slam. Instead, he spun around a few times and did a weak-looking body slam. It was one of those deals where you scratch your head wondering how the setup could possibly make the move any more painful or effective. Dreadful.

Didn't he bust out a sweet powerbomb in the #1 Contenders match a few weeks ago? And on Harper too so that means he could use it on almost anyone.

It's outfit would be the dirty blue jeans and the dirty white wifebeater, and it would have the wildman beard and a big bald spot. It would be so cute! WWE is missing out on a goldmine. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed That Becky promo was weird, right? Where she said "bond" or "bonding" six zillion times (Like last week when they decided to call Nattie's group 'The Welcoming Committee' so Tom Philips commentary went something like "Charlotte was attacked earlier by The Welcoming Committee which puts Naomi at a disadvantage to The Welcoming Committee here, one wonders what side Becky Lynch will choose, whether she'll be with The Welcoming Committee or against The Welcoming Committee. Also, The Welcoming Committee. Then again, The Welcoming Committee."). And then everyone started saying "bond" or "bonding" with Charlotte ending it by saying "I am the greatest...at bonding". I was really expecting a Gold Bond logo to appear somewhere in the background by the end of it. Loved The Ascension standing in a closet shouting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bink_winkleman Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I liked this show. Now, to complain about it: Wow, that really sucked for a British crowd. No-selling KO's French was especially bad manners. I'm not a fan of jeans and a wife beater being wrestling gear, but I'm even less of a fan of Luke Harper just switching over to Dean's jeans and wife beater look. I hate the steampunk sheep mask, and think it's indicative of everything they've gotten wrong with the Wyatts. That "bonding" bit was pretty weird. So was Naomi making her grand entrance just to introduce Becky. I get it was for the crowd, but it's not like they cared. The advantage of Ortong/Jinder is supposed to be that I can knock off two birds with one stone by fast-forwarding them both on my DVR. This doesn't work when they're stuck in tag matches with people I like. Other than that, KO is so much better on SD than he was on Raw. That promo on Orton and Mahal to start the show was great. The Fashion Files stuff was excellent again. The main was fun for what it was. Nak laying into Ziggler was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I hate what they've done with Sami on the main roster more than anyone else from NXT. At least Bayley is positioned at the top of her division. Sami is now just a fucking joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
