I'd rather sit in a tank full of blue crabs than watch Super Cena work Jinder for the title, unless it came with a clean win for Jinder prior to the humiliating 'Merica > The World beatdown loss. I would not be fond of Jinder working Fuck Randy Orton again, but at least Jinder would be booked to lose a title defense to a hated worker that he's already beaten.. I would probably lose my shit of AJ, KO, or Nak challenged for the belt as long as Jinder got strong booking during the build up to the title loss.

The Iron Yuppie Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Didn't watch the show, but running one jingoism angle in 2017 A.D. is lame enough. Two on the same fucking show is mind-blowing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I joked about Khali coming in as Jinder's heavy a while back but I never thought they'd actually do it. That'll show me. As bad as that Punjabi Prison match was, it'll be Flair/Steamboat compared to Khali/Orton. Unless they never have him wrestle and he just stands around choking people. Oh wait, that is him wrestling. Tag title match was great and easily match of the night, but on a show with two of the best workers in the world on it, it shouldn't have been.

Craig H Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 So I gave up on watching the PP match, but when I later read that Khali came out, I had the biggest "oh fuuuuuck this" reaction. Jinder fucking sucks. His gimmick is shit. He's a shit wrestler. And you could stick anyone in this evil foreigner that's better than you role and people would boo it or shit on it because it's lame. Meanwhile, on Raw, Samoa Joe and Brock have had one hell of a program and now it looks like we'll get Brock vs Roman vs Braun vs Joe. What a difference a year makes because last year SDL was way more entertaining than Raw. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the Bollywood Boys did exactly that, and completely exposed the gimmick. I mean those guys are obviously smaller than Orton and Jinder, but not by so much that it wasn't obvious they could do the same thing if they wanted. Of course, in light of the "$600 seat" picture, the match might as well have been behind a solid brick wall for the live audience if they made the cage that inescapable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Yeah, whichever Singh brother climbed through the cage, that was funny. I actually don't hate Jinder. I don't exactly think he's good, but he's got a good look and a great heel sneer. Heel charisma is decent. His promos lately have been decent. He's not good in the ring, but when has that ever kept anyone from holding a title in the WWE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victator Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Is Khali a one shot or is he sticking around? If they are doing an India show soon, they could already be losing faith in Jinder as a draw in India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltzer made it seem like 1) It was at a minimum a short term thing (Like maybe through Summerslam at the least) 2) Khali was clearly brought in because Jinder is nowhere near as popular in India as Khali and since the money from India hasn't spiked yet they have already brought in the big dog So basically expect the focus to be just China by the end of the year 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rehabilitated Rick Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I was going to give this a miss but caught the replay after getting home early from work. Considering the talent pool of apparent world class workers on the roster, putting on a show this bad is criminal, what the fuck is going on? I think I'll just stick to New Japan. Apparently the AJ/Owens finish was botched and AJ was supposed to go over, I mean, I suppose that would be a viable reason for the abrupt ending at least.

Rehabilitated Rick Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 The finish was atrocious though, AJ hardly fought for the escape, whoever the ref was took an eternity to make the count, on initial viewing it raised doubt that it was supposed to be the planned finish or something was lost in the entire transition and it wasn't executed perfectly. Typically the Irish Meltz manipulated that doubt and tried to create a story, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSC Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Haven't read through everything - but I love that Renee has found a way to foil Kevin Owens on Talking Smack by making fun of herself before he gets a chance. Her saying that she's not as articulate as the King, smirking at the camera and Owens stumbling over his next few words is the best thing I've seen in the last 4 hours.

JCM Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I hope they do the Mega Powers style tag match at Summer Slam with Cena and Orton vs Jinder and Khali just so we don't have to see Orton and Cena in two singles matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
