Reports from folks in Dallas are that Renee Young and Lana are both being filmed by the Total Divas cameras

And supposedly - Lana did a signing with Eva Marie that had the E! logo as a backdrop

Somehow appropriate to have the show at Dallas Stadium, a place where yearly high expectations quickly turn into huge disappointments.

I now have a new signature. Thank you for that great line.

My friend who doesn't watch the current product:  "I just watched an entire match of this guy [Reigns] and I still have no clue what the fuck his personality is supposed to be."

Yeah, that is pretty telling. On Roman Reigns, not your friend.

What a bizarre show. 

 

Basically every match was good to great and yet they picked almost 100% the worst possible results once we passed MITB. Just bizarre.

Yes exactly. Everyone online feels the same way. I don't get the booking either unless they went out of their way to troll their audience.

Honestly, I just want to talk about how nuts HHH's entrance was. This people even on TV play educated corporate employees and then Steph dresses like an evil Warrior Queen and cuts a fascistic promo from atop a throne about her husband while he leads out a skeleton army all with their own WWE titles. That shit escalated fast. 

This is like the nice couple down the street that you hear spend their weekends at some edgy bondage club. 

Most batshit entrance of all time. They basically outed themselves as occult National Socialists. They're probably performing black magic to bring back Hitler. 

With that entrance you can't be announced from Greenwich. You have to be announced from the "Iron Islands" or "The Dark Land" or some shit. Maybe "The Pit of Broken Nightmares."

I'll give you credit, that description is hilarious.

The play-by-play announcer on the pre-show (sorry I don't know his name). Perhaps he is a tad too excited for 7am as it was in Australia, but it is nice to have somebody knowledgeable about the name of moves and history calling matches. 

Oh, that's Mauro Ranallo, who called MMA and kickboxing matches in the few years before being signed by WWE, although he did wrestling announcing on a local level long ago.

I don't have quite the vitriol for the show that others have. Maybe it's because I rarely watch any sort of wrestling anymore and I haven't regularly watched WWE in an eternity but I thought things were at least decent.. until the Womens Title match ended, which was my favorite match on the show. After that it took a higher jump off the top of Hell in a Cell than Shane did and the last section of the show was just bad. But even then, I did not like who they chose to win throughout most of WM, I can at least agree with everyone there.

EDIT: I have NO idea how this response ended up in this thread. This is my first time on the "new" board so I will blame it on that.

Per Dave:

In: Lana, Maryse, Naomi (returning)

Out: Amanda, Alicia Foxx

Staying: Bellas, Nattie, Paige

Lana is in explicitly for her wedding with Rusev

Amanda and Alicia out?  Damn, that's a shame.  I know Alicia's been annoying at times, but I generally liked her.  And Amanda just started and it was interesting seeing her adapt to wrestling.  Plus, you can't go wrong with episodes like the family outing where it's a episode-long excuse to see her in a bikini.

That said, Maryse makes sense and I'm interested in how Rusev will be in this.  If he's wacky like he can be on TV there can be some gold next season.

Sad to see Alicia & Mandy go. Alicia because she seemed like a staple mainstay of the show with Paige & the Bellas and especially since she doesn't get much ring time as of late. Mandy feels like she was just getting started and I liked her a lot the last couple episodes, fun times with the Neidhart family vacation. On the additions, I am very much looking forward to Maryse joining the show as she's always been one of my favorite divas.

Well this makes a lot more sense now

E just announced Total Bellas - a Total Divas spinoff

http://www.wwe.com/shows/totaldivas/article/total-bellas-coming-e-new-total-divas-cast-announced

And in that announcement they confirmed the Total Divas cast

Quote

Additionally, E!, WWE and Bunim-Murray Productions’ hit series “Total Divas” will return for its sixth season this fall. Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Eva Marie, Naomi, Natalya and Paige will continue to give viewers an inside glimpse at balancing life in the spotlight and the nonstop action of their professional careers with the drama of their everyday lives.  

In addition, Season 6 will introduce "Total Divas" fans to Lana,  Renee Young, and Maryse, a former two-time WWE Divas Champion and wife of Mike “The Miz” Mizanin.

So am I the only one that finds them adding Lana to Total Divas a bit odd if its true that Lana got super heat back stage for posting the engagement picture online? Also I'm not sure who I feel the worst for...Daniel for now having to deal with Nikki all the time or Brie and Daniel for having to deal with Cena's weird rules.

Why would "super heat backstage" be a problem for reality TV?

And Cena's gonna go out of his mind when Bryan and Brie instead on fair trade organic hemp hampers.

If anything "super heat backstage" is a PLUS for reality TV.

I really want to hate Total Bellas, but there's something wacky about what appears to be all of them in one place.  The preview actually sold me on this much more than whatever insufferable crap tends to be on Total Divas  Still can't believe Daniel Bryan went from indy star to living in a house with WWE's top guy.  Oh, and can't forget Johnny Ace.  This seems like a fun time.
