Eivion Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 13 minutes ago, Niners Fan in CT said: That's true but where is the match quality going to come from? There needs to be some good wrestling on this show... it can't get by entirely on nostalgia. I will assume that Becky and Charlotte are probably facing one another, so that's good. Trish and Alexa could be okay... maybe. But probably passable at best. Lita vs. Mickie won't be good. And Ronda vs. Nikki is heavily rumored. Most of the best women; Asuka, Ruby, Sasha, Ember etc. have nothing going on right now. And I do agree with @Victator that Trish and Lita should be on the card. But if this is 3 hours of wrestling that resembles the Bellas tag from tonight.... good lord. The MYC Final is high quality match. Charlotte/Becky is likely to be one of their best matches. Not enough idea of what the rest of the card will be to really say what the quality will be. I don't think Natte or Nikki make for a great match for Ronda, but neither should be bad in theory. I wish it was Nia again personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't really answer if they're friends or just have a common enemy. I think you can assume Braun does not have friends. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want to be friends with Braun anyway. We've all seen how he tried to worm his way into an engaged woman's pants. If I was Buddy Murphy, I'd club him with a metal baton to the knees, then when he's down, tie a plastic bag around his head, and beat him in the head until the bag fills with blood. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be at the go home RAW for the Evolution PPV so I have a reason why I'm invested in all this. I'm guessing Ronda has a big segment on the show, maybe a contract signing or something. They should just make it an all women RAW. Save the dudes for the dark match when I'm trying to get out of the parking garage. I just hope I remember where we parked. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake is their manager. Presumably, he is still the 205 GM. He should wear a tux and carry a cane as a nod to Mr. Fuji. Authors of Pain, Powers of Pain; it's only natural. Come to think of it, the AoP could use some face paint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Braun would still be digesting Murphy. My controversial statement for the week. If you are engaged longer than six months, you are just dating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanChessgame Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 It was nice seeing Gable again and he looked like a boss in the match. I'm assuming Roode turns on him in the coming weeks and while I don't care about him either way, heel Roode is long overdue. Was it just me or did the Bellas come of as kind of sarcastic in their segment with Rhonda? I don't see them being turned heels but if they're going to do a Rhonda/Nikki match then one of them would have to play the heel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Heel Bobby Roode vs face Chad Gable would be a hell of an NXT title match. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Question: Did Corbin just send Strowman out there or did he appear on the Titantron, explain himself, anything? I turned back to Raw and all of the sudden Strowman is out there instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Blue Sam Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Drake said in his promo that he's still the 205 Live GM, but also the AoP manager. Presumably something realised he's one of the best talkers they have, so only using him in 205 wasn't the best idea. I'm hoping at some point theres a six man tag vs the Shield, with Drake as the cowardly cheapshotting manager, which ends with Roman spearing him out of his boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Titantron, Cole and Graves talked about how Corbin had some business to take care of (after the phone call with Steph) and since Strowman wanted some competition tonight, there we go.

I wish it was Nia again personally. The Evolution promo is a little challenging until after HIAC because the top talents are involved in title matches there, and even when its a foregone conclusion (Ronda retaining over Alexa), they still can't really give them matches for Evolution yet or risk spoiling HIAC. Its a delicate balance. Also, Ember Moon tagging with Dana felt very random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanChessgame Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Is there any more news on whether or not the women's tag titles are actually going to be a thing? If so I'd think they need to get the ball rolling on that pretty soon so as to crown the champs at Evolution, unless that's something they want to save for Mania. Speaking of McIntyre vs Roman, I'd have zero problem with them putting the belt on Drew. He's been great since his return to NXT and his main roster call up. If they're doing The Shield comeback full time then the three of them can do Shield stuff and will be plenty over and in the main event scene without needing to hold titles.
