John from Cincinnati Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Put it on Roman and don't take it off till they're ready to go with Big E. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
For Great Justice Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Yep, this show needs to end with Roman steamrolling the world and holding the belt high. E wins the Rumble, lots of 6 man goodness in the Mania build assuming everyone is back, and you’re good for the big show. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 For what it's worth, MVP of the night is Mr. Randall K. Orton for making Keith Lee look like a god damn trillion bucks. Hoo baby. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Great Justice Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Not a Rollins guy but that tag was fantastic between Murphy’s bumping, Rey’s comebacks and all kinds of goodness. Love heel Reigns on top. So many different stories to tell, and a lot of talent on the face side of the SD roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Right guy went over. Roman Reigns with Paul Heyman is a fresh idea. Let's see where it goes Bray Wyatt can still do his Funhouse universe stuff away from the title scene. Sasha and Bayley were fantastic carrying the action around Nia Jax and then had a really good finishing stretch with Shayna. That's the match of the night right there. Keith Lee had great attire, got a huge win over Orton but still had shitty music. I don't know what this means for Orton and McIntyre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoFistsJustFlips Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Raise your hand if you knew they were doing the ring collapsing spot because there were no trons on the post or apron. *Raises hand* At least there's some character progression for the first time in forever. Reigns & Big E have some momentum. Keith Lee got a good rub. Liked the finish to the Women's Tag Title Match. WTF was Nia's cringey celebrating shit tho? Totally unnecessary thrown together ppv, but it was inoffensive and mostly fine-ish. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 It's reminding me of WrestleMania X-7 where Austin signed a deal with the devil to regain his obsession/championship. Right down to Roman beating the hell out of Braun with a chair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I actually thought this was pretty decent. I like Reigns' current direction, thought all of the finishes were good, unless I'm forgetting something, and that the matches were mostly ok for the WWE style.

Niners Fan in CT Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I thought Riddle and Corbin kind of sucked. If they are going to push Riddle then give him some flash KO's. There's no reason for him and Corbin to go that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they said on WOR that it was obvious that Riddle and Corbin would go at least 10 minutes since Riddle and Gable only went 90 seconds. I knew what to expect and it wasn't offense, just kind of...boring and stale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
