RIPPA Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The KO bump was done as a “tribute” to the Foley bump which was 20 years ago in the same city (possibly the same building). At least that is their reasoning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that is their reasoning I guess that's technically right, since the parking lot for the PPG Paints Arena is where the Civic Arena used to be.

Lawful Metal Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I hope B-Team's win over Hardy and Wyatt leads to a rematch at the Hardy Compound. Does Lashley have a finisher? Do Dolph and Rollins have moves that aren't finishers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peck Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Nakamura with the fist to the nads... Orton with the stomp to one-up him. What's next? Pillman-izing the scrotum?

Just Dave Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Someone said it earlier, but it bears repeating: Alexa needs more flunkies for Ronda to bust up while Alexa does that great facial expression where she realizes she's in trouble at ringside. I might would've had Nattie turn on Nia tonight and had her join Mickie and Lex. Maybe Lex co-op's the Riott Squad full time while Ruby is out. Then do the switch at the Rumble. Ronda is Champ. Charlotte wins the Rumble. You get your female main event at Mania. Seems simple. So let's see how they screw it up... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a few really good non-title matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean seriously I hope they gave him a big fat bonus with at least five 0's on it for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought both Alexa/Nia matches were pretty good at WM & Backlash, and the Chamber if that counts. Other than that, probably back to the Alexa/Sasha series last August as there wasn't a whole lot going on in the late part of the year there. For SDL, Charlotte/Ruby at fastLane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, we're not going to have good or great title matches until they get a few people out of the title scene (both current champions, for starters). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's your Summerslam fuck finish right there. Nattie, jealous that she got passed over for a title shot, costs Ronda the match whether it's a simple DQ as Ronda is putting the armbar on or if it's a triple threat, all Nattie has to do is either impede or incapacitate her long enough to not be involved with the finish.

FluffSnackwell Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Nia/Alexa is an awkward matchup where Nia looks weak in any scenario where the match goes long. At WrestleMania they probably did the best they could with the formula where Alexa uses a bunch of "hide behind the ref like he's mommy and daddy's fixin to whoop your ass" eye poke crap to control the match. As ridiculous as it looks for Alexa to be on offense for the majority of a match against Nia, it would look even worse if they had a long match where any sustained offense by Nia wasn't enough to finish her off.

I have the solution. Nia squashes Alexa in two minutes. Asuka squashes Carmella in two minutes. Both of them become managers where they'd best be suited. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
