RIPPA Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 *Some or all may be replaced by international tapings* PER PWI Quote Week 2 - Tye Dillinger def. Eric Young by DQ after Nikki Cross interferes. The winner advances to a "Number 1 Contender Fatal 4 way". Big Damo lays Dillinger out afterwards. - Andrade Cien Almas def. No Way Jose in a "Number one contender Fatal 4 Way" qualifier - Roderick Strong def. Elias Samson in a "Number one contender Fatal 4 Way" qualifier. - Bobby Roode def. Oney Lorcan in a " Number one contender Fatal 4 Way " qualifier. - Peyton Royce ( w Billie Kay) def. Sarah Bridges (Possible dark match) - Shinsuke Nakamura def Patrick Clark (Possible dark match) PER WON Quote - Tye Dillinger defeated Eric Young via DQ in a number one contenders fatal four-way qualifying match Four matches will be taped with the winners advancing to a number one contenders fatal four-way later. Nikki Cross jumped Dillinger from behind to cause the DQ. After Dillinger cleared the ring, Big Damo came from the crowd and destroyed him. - Andrade “Cien” Almas defeated No Way Jose in a number one contenders fatal four way qualifying match Almas was no nonsense and hit his leg sweep DDT for the win. - Roderick Strong defeated Elias Samson in the third of four qualifying matches The crowd was all over The Drifter, telling him to drift away and drift forever. Strong won with the sick kick. - Bobby Roode defeated Oney Lorcan in the final of the four qualifying matches This was a hard-hitting match with Lorcan delivering uppercuts and Roode scoring the win with an impaler DDT. - Peyton Royce w/ Billie Kay defeated Sara Bridges (the former Crazy Mary Dobson) Royce won in a quick match. - Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Patrick Clark Nakamura hit the Kinshasa to cap off an entertaining match.

zev Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I am legit pleased to read that Mary Dobson has a match, and hope that one gets aired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Did they turn Roderick Strong face already? You see face vs. face matches sometimes, but you rarely see heel vs. heel and the final would have a weird dynamic, too, with three heels and only one face.

RIPPA Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 It seems he is more in that tweener role As anyone against Drifter was going to be a face in that face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramo2653 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The Joe/Nak steel cage match seemed disjointed. Like it escalated out of nowhere. Maybe it was the editing? I really dug the Jose/Cien match kinda wish it went longer. Everything else was ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_W_P Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Yeah I mentioned in the Melbourne thread that the Joe/Nak match has been edited. Bit of a letdown as it doesn't do justice to how hard they were hitting each other or the involvement of the crowd. They also cut out Joe's call of "coward" as Nak was leaving the cage and went with the story of "Nakamura wants to finish Joe and end this rivalry".

StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Jose has proved himself to be surprisingly carryable - I'm beginning to think it would be a mistake to put him on the main shows as No Way Jose; he might actually need a surname.

L_W_P Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 "No Way" Jose Estrada would be fine by me. He can reform Los Boricuas with the Shining Stars and start another generation of "Gang Warz" with New Day, Balor Club, Shield, Wyatts... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I would love at least six months of six man tags between The Shield, Wyatts, New Day, Club, and any other trios they could throw in, like Sheamus/Cesaro/Tommy End, bring up Sanity, Nak/Tozawa/Tajiri, put Dolph back in the Spirit Squad, 3MB reunion with Rhyno in Drew's spot, Cena/Hype Bros, American Alpha and lets say Babyface Rusev, The Miz/Breezdango, Samoa Joe and the Usos, ohhh the possibilities. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_W_P Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 American Alpha and Jack Swagger could actually do some serious work as a trio. Swagger's best in ring work was part of the Real Americans and he has the balance of goofy/serious that would mesh well with Gable and Jordan. Throw in a nostalgia run from Book the Golden Truth (go watch Table for 3) and it could be a pretty amazing tournament on the network. Shield, Miz/Spirit Squad, Ziggler/Hype Bros, Lucha Dragons/Gran Metalik, Perkins/Swann/Alexander, Usos/Joe, AA/Swagger, Sanity, Wyatts, Balor Club, Book/Golden Truth, New Day, Cena/Cass/Enzo, Sheamus/Cesaro/Henry, Jose/Shining Stars, Gallagher/Vaudevillains. That's 16 teams with a good mix of young and old as well as a big range of styles. Not sure who to pair up with Sheamus and Cesaro. Went Mark Henry for the "Strong guys who want to beat people up" theme but you could throw in Sami Zayn just as easily. Hold that tourney over a couple of nights at the end of December and it'll rate better than Roadblock. The winners get a trophy, a 'cash prize' and all 3 members are locked in for the Royal Rumble so there is a reason to work together. Could even say they get spots in the Rumble after #15 or #20 as an incentive - Work together and you could win the Rumble. That way if a team gets thrown together by a GM (Miz and Ziggler have to team up! and their partner is Baron Corbin!) there is a reason for them to not immediately walk out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
