Eivion 2,789 Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) I feel like they are going all in with the Fiend. I still think we will get at least one stupid move in making the match more than 8 minutes and glorified squash of Rollins, but it feels like they are going too in with the Fiend to have him fail here even with a fuck finish. Rollins is just dead in the water as champ and the Fiend feud has only served to make him look even worse. That isn't damage they can recover from him with him staying champ.

West Newbury Bad Boy 10,483 Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) I thought Dolfan had been exaggerating. They’ve really only announced three matches for this. Wild. Considering we’ve not heard much, are we safe to assume Bryan will be healthy for this? Edited October 4, 2019 by West Newbury Bad Boy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Natural 25,125 Posted October 5, 2019 We're now up to four, Bayley vs. Charlotte Flair as announced on twitter now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil4126 648 Posted October 5, 2019 so, will each match be an hour? is the PPV going to be 2 hrs long?(actually that would be a nice change of pace) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just drew 1,498 Posted October 5, 2019 Great. More shoehorn Charlotte. Someone made the point earlier that they think Rollins might beat Fiend bc of Rollins' win over Lesnar and that showing a long-term commitment. To me that read as a last-ditch effort to build credibility for Rollins, and I'm not sure it's worked. They've trotted legend after legend out there to give him the "rub," had him pin Lesnar twice, and he still isn't moving the needle. That's not all on him, but it can't be ignored, either. Even if he comes back later and "overcomes," the only answer is Fiend absolutely wearing him out Sunday and walking away with the WWE title. Also, Heyman is apparently a Wyatt uberfan, so my guess is we're about to see how much influence he actually has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
West Newbury Bad Boy 10,483 Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) lol no Also, weird take considering how fast she ran at Clash of Champions. Edited October 5, 2019 by West Newbury Bad Boy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L_W_P 1,894 Posted October 6, 2019 I think we will get a 6 man with the OC vs Mid Card Flippy Guys Nakamura defending against Miz again. Maybe something to hype up the Flair v Hogan thing? Rusev/Orton v ???/?? Corbin doing a segment about being King while Rock/Gable interrupt? Outside of putting the belts on The Fiend and Sasha for RAW and Charlotta for SD, I think it's gonna be a pretty meh show while they hold for the draft.

Phil4126 648 Posted October 6, 2019 14 hours ago, West Newbury Bad Boy said: lol no Also, weird take considering how fast she ran at Clash of Champions. Bayley is on my list of "settle down, Philenetico" women on the roster, but this and her follow up tweet that basically said, "Charlotte said no, lol" are just not a good look. There's a world of potential you can do with a heel Bayley but GOD DAMN if none of it is happening. Still don't get why the women's champion of Smackdown has to tap out clean on the big premiere on fox 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Natural 25,125 Posted October 6, 2019 I might watch this live with the matches announced. If I don't, it's because I have an afternoon shift tomorrow and I don't want to be annoyed when the Fiend doesn't win or the the match goes to a no-contest. I said the following in the Clash of Champions thread and stand by it when I suggested Rollins vs. The Fiend inside HIAC: On 9/16/2019 at 5:53 AM, The Natural said: Squash Seth ;).

Rehabilitated Rick 1,812 Posted October 6, 2019 so uh.. 4 matches? I'm honestly fine with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D.Z 6,209 Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) Probably might add a flippy guys pre show match. And King Corbin segment during main card. Edited October 6, 2019 by D.Z Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eivion 2,789 Posted October 6, 2019 I assume they add a few more match during whatever kickoff show they have. Still, I'm kind of worried about the lack of matches. If the tag and women's matches just went long that would be fine, but now I'm afraid they will try to go the distance on Fiend/Seth which needs to be only 60-100 seconds longer than Brock/Kofi.
