Which didn't make any sense really because he won the match. Then he was back on RAW the next night. That happened alot in this time period especially with Cena. Alot of big angles got flat because they didn't want him off TV. Same thing with the Summer of Punk angle, Punk was right back on TV. People were thought it was stupid that Strowman and Lashley were back on RAW Monday after their deal. If your going to pull off a big angle that calls for a guy to sit out a few weeks than keep the guy off. If not than dont run the angle. You gotta be legit hurt to be off TV unless you got a Jericho or Brock type deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Best part of that match was Matt Striker screwing up the stipulation after the pin and Michael Cole being so pissed about it. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crowd reaction before the match begins was something so organic.. that is so rare to come by these days. WWE spends all this time manufacturing "moments" well.. that was a real legitimate moment of the decade and somehow WWE managed to ruin one of the stables and run off 1/3 of the other.. and eventually running off 1/3 of the other faction while he sits at home not being used None of WWE's forced moments can compare to the organic moments The Shield vs. Wyatt Family produced.

Especially Fox Sports 1 where even though they have a deal with the WWE I don't think most of them actually likes the product. I bet there are a lot more Colin Cowherd's in that network concerning the WWE then ESPN And the video has already been removed. This is my shocked face Wonder how fucked Bayley is for not playing the great solider. I mean she was probably losing tomorrow anyway Edited July 13, 2019 by hammerva 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Bayley played it just fine. Lots of people talk about the grind of the road when asked in interviews. She didn't bring up the CBA stuff. She brushed it aside. She even suggested the company can't pay for travel and lodging for "thirty superstars." What would they have to be upset at Bayley for? If anything, they'd have an ax to grind with the reporter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t even like she was being a serious hard hitting journalist with that question. Bayley just accidentally surprised an entertainment normy that doesn’t know shit about the realities of these trained athletes. She might have assumed they were a part of SAG when she was going down that line of questioning. Edited July 13, 2019 by LoneWolf&Subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologize for that characterization of her. Edit: I think what might get Bayley in trouble is her agreeing with the remark that the WWE can afford the WWE superstars travel. Or maybe Leahy convinced her with her tone. Because Bayley sounded like she believed the WWE brass couldn’t afford the WWE’s performers travel right before Leahy suggested that.

My favorite "illogical Vince story" was him fining Malenko for Batista blading during a cage match against Jericho because even though Batista completely did the whole thing on his own, didn't tell anyone and said as much to Vince, as the agent "he (Malenko) should've known they were going to do that".
