RIShane Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Charlotte's 'coronation' next week is going to be a lot of fun. While its more likely leading to Becky and/or Ronda getting in the way, her being Corporate Champ would be highly entertaining. Her promo was very enjoyable too, especially the way she completely neglected her dad's welfare while taking the time to praise Vince for his business decisions, find old Ronda footage, and turn her Cena-like level of extra media/PR/charity work into a heel trait. I remain disappointed that Asuka's virtually disappeared from SDL since beating Becky. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life is a circle. We're born, we have a stupid haircut, we can't wrestle , we get a better haircut, we get better in the ring, we get a hot girlfriend, we get older, we break up with our girlfriend,we get an even stupider haircut than before, we stop giving a shit in the ring.....

It’s funny though, because the last time Gargano wrestled in Charlotte he was advertised as wrestling Almas (right before their Takeover match), but it was also changed (to Velveteen Dream).

Johnny Retro Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I dunno who told Corey that he'd get over more if he did a creepy sexual predator gimmick, but it was bad advice. I seriously want him off my tv. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the options are "job to someone you should be squashing in under a minute" or "don't appear," I'll take plan B every time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamBroken Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Went in expecting a nothing show, but thought this was an overall great show. What a change a Hardyz return makes! Truth/Rey/Andrade was a super fun sprint. I haven't been big on Ricochet but am starting to really dig him and Black as a team, real solid match here. Great promo from Charlotte. They killed off Owens last summer for me so he does nothing for me anymore but the main event was pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Yeah I guess one way to get on Vince's good side is to beat the shit out of a him. AJ Styles clocked him and was rewarded. K.O. busted his head open and is now rewarded. He respects that. Edit: Hey! 10,000 LIKES... What a glorious day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 R-Truth and Carmela are such a perfect midcard duo I'm already dreading their utterly purposeless break-up. They're trying to turn Kofi into 2013-14 Bryan in a month, and it might actually even be working. I have no idea if KO is supposed to be a heel or a face, but the match should be great at Fast Lane.

RIPPA Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Its mentioned in the Fastlane thread but they made Mandy/Asuka for Fastlane official on a Youtube exclusive Also - PWI says that both Hardy's had an option in their contract where the WWE could roll it into a three year deal which they did so the Hardys are around for another year 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Per Meltzer - it appears (and this is Dave making assumptions not MELTZER REPORTED~!) that the flip flopped Kofi and KO in that it was supposed to be Kofi at Fastlane and KO at Mania. But yeah as of this past weekend - they had originally settled on KO as Bryan's challenger for Mania Dave also noted - and I am sure some folks around here would feel the same way - that it could also be setting up a three way (either Fastlane or Mania) Dave also mused that waiting for Kofi till Mania gives credence to the idea of maybe they will put the title on Kofi 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORELOCK Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 A three-way, huh? Well, that's clearly a better way to get Kofi over as champion than a one-on-one victory over Bryan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nofuture Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Graves isn't that much different than his NXT days, it's just that he's on 5 hours a week instead of 1 so he's overexposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 It feels like they also may be setting up a Vince vs. The McMahon kids angle as well. Vince has now overruled all 3 of them. He's technically overruled Stephanie twice now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
