The Green Meanie Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Did Cena mean to steal Hunter's bit and call Corbin skinny-fat? Are we really comparing Corbin to Punk? The matches were pretty good but a lot of talent was missing this week.

I tried not laugh, and I was all ready to write a diatribe about how these skits were no better than the skits GLOW used do, but as soon as I saw Arn's face, I burst out laughing. 1
HumanChessgame Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Last week I hoped we'd get a Dougie reference and that exceeded expectations. Arn was incredible. Smackdown continues to be the far superior weekly show, but because the matches tend to give the wrestlers plenty of time to properly tell stories and put out a decent product it only allows for time to get so much of the roster on the show.
The Man Known as Dan Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Fashion Police segment continues to be my favorite thing in wrestling on any given week. Arn reveal was masterful. 7
Eivion Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 The Fashion Police stole the show for me with the Arn reveal. Charlotte/Lana was fun. I kind of like what they are doing with Lana and Tamina though I was really hoping their teaming was due to Rusev paying off Tamina. Naomi/Carmella seemed decent enough though the crowd cheering for Ellsworth was depressing. It wasn't even a surprise really but still. Everything else was generally decent with Orton/Jinder delivering a solid main event. I was hoping Rusev would interrupt earlier though if only to keep Orton from having a win against Jinder in the feud. 43 minutes ago, The Green Meanie said: Did Cena mean to steal Hunter's bit and call Corbin skinny-fat?

The Green Meanie Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 The sign he was pointing at mentioned dumpster fire, but no skinny-fat as far as I could see.
Brysynner Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Logic dictates that Corbin should pick up the win over Cena since he's going out of his way to bring down Corbin but WWE logic dictates that Cena has to go over if Corbin is cashing it later in the evening. I wonder if WWE would do something screwy like having Nak/Jinder go on before Cena/Corbin so the WWE Title changes hands three times in one night Jinder -> Nakamura ->Corbin -> Cena .
piranesi Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Goddammit Lana's music is what plays when Mr. Magoo wanders onto the luggage carousel at the airport. END IT!!! 2 3
Nice Guy Eddie Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Nakamura winning the title, then losing to a Corbin cash in would make Nak look so bad. Corbin should be a failed cash in attempt. I think looking good, but just coming up short would do more for him than actually winning the title this early. Corbin was the worst choice to win that MITB match. He's improved from nxt, but he's a long way from being ready for a title run. I marked for Lost Highway and The Elephant Man being worked into this week's Fashion Files. Plus, Wild Samoans at Heart. 2

Considering Corbin has jumped him like... three or four times now, yeah, Nakamura really should see it coming by now, and guard against the cash in. Maybe he's under the impression the briefcase is null until January? 1
Cristobal Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Speaking of dumpster fires, what the fuck was that shit new music Corbin had tonight? Did WWE not think he already looked enough like the world's most depressed Queensryche fan? 2 2

Quite a few people recently got new/altered entrances: Rollins, Corbin, Kalisto, Jordan..heck Big Cass got three different songs in one month.
PetrolCB Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 God damn the ending of the show, sorry. I was half zoned out because, well, why not? Orton beats the world champion, clean. I'm thinking how absurd it is, and then when I come to, YES it's Rusev attacking Randy and it goes off the air there? Wtf? What is this, Nitro? I wanna see Rusev kick some ass, damn it. 3

Jordan and Cass had gimmick changes. Rollins and the Usos just got tweaks to existing music. Corbin's old theme was good and fit his gimmick and entrance perfectly. 1

Jamal Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 I liked what we got of Carmella/Naomi. When one of the women finally beat the Hell out of Ellsworth, it's gonna be awesome.
hammerva Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 Does anyone get the John Cena "Elephant Man" reference?

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 I mean, the could have put up a picture of the bee from Bee Movie and said "John Cena", but what do I know. Also, Kevin Owens was in prime shit-stirrer mode last night. I mean, it's not going to translate into a win, but Dickhead KO is best KO. 2
Infinit Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 The ACC sure looked sure looked more full last night than Monday. And for those wondering, the reward for sitting through 205Live was a short Nakamura/Styles vs Corbin/Owens in a Toronto Street Fight.
