The rumor was just Angle will have a match against Triple H It makes most sense to do that at Summerslam, Rumble or Mania That rumor was also out before Vince changed his mind and decided against the Reigns/Lesnar Mania Main Event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 And the Deadly Game tournament was at Survivor Series too. I just felt like saying that because it's still a good show that holds up. You could always watch that instead of watching this one. But no I think this card has some potential but jeeez, so many rematches... so many rematches... I'm guessing all this twitter talk and shit lately means that John Cena vs. Roman Reigns is now the penciled in Mania main event. They probably should. I wouldn't be against that idea. Better to do it now than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Lord Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 They seemed to realize that putting a rocket on Jordan and maybe giving him a title shot so quickly might not be such a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WCW title tourney in 99, which did not have too many swerves surprisingly. Then three tourneys less than six months later. Then you hear how he pitched a bunch of tourneys to Vince in 2002. But Deadly Game was still a great great show. Even with only one and a half great matches. My favorite moment being Bossman getting DQed for beating Austin with a nightstick. Vince is satisfied until Pac and Regal fight to a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurningBeard Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 The Rock swerve at Deadly Games completely took me by surprise and was a stroke of genius. Just as a guy is getting over as a face and the crowd are slowly rooting for him BAM turn him mega heel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was clearly going to be a megaface, but they needed him heel long enough to get through Mania and the money match with Austin. They played it perfectly. Russo spent a decade+ trying to recreate that magic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 8/2/2017 at 4:06 PM, The Natural said: I'm with you, pal. This week's RAW spoilers follow... I can add Alexa Bliss vs. Sasha Banks and Sheamus/Cesaro vs. Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins to the matches I'm interested in. Shame Bayley got injured though Bliss vs. Banks should have been the match from the start. Still think the show should be better on paper to what it is.
