What a horrendous main event. There's something seriously wrong if you have that kind of talent and the only good bits are the little teases and moments when the guys face off near the beginning. Compare it to last years one which interwove a number of different storylines for everyone while not being loaded up on part timers and at least gave the spotlight to some different faces.
Women's match was a mess too. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to eliminate by far the most talented worker on the Smackdown team after 2 minutes and put any sort of attention on Tamina.
Can't blame himOrton looked like it was one of those where he just couldnt be bothered.
That's his permanent setting, the lazy cnut.Orton looked like it was one of those where he just couldnt be bothered.
main event was an absolute mess.
owens and zayn's interference was useless and ended with shane chasing them off with a chair like some old bloke getting rid of teenagers off his porch.
already over braun was the last man standing but didn't actually get to end the match.
they teased jordan interference and that went nowhere, even after trips eliminated his biological father.
orton somehow managed to reach new levels of phoning it in, and was the last proper wrestler standing for smackdown.
shane was the last man standing for smackdown.
the two smackdown newcomers (at 37 and 40 respectively) were the first two eliminated for them.
the two raw newcomers (at 38 and 36 respectively) were the first two eliminated for them.
cena seemed to somehow give even less of a shit than orton. turned up in green, shuffled about in the ring with angle, no sold the coup de gras, generally acted like he couldn't be arsed.
i can understand getting braun over, but why did triple h and shane (and a lesser extent orton and angle) need protecting at the expense of everyone else?
TBF the youngest member of Smackdown did Eliminate someone, Orton pinned Balor, good to see Smackdown pushing the youngsters .Braun was already over.
Why not have Nakamura or Roode eliminate someone?
Sadly think miz wont get a look in to the universal until he gets 10 intercontinentals. Looks like hes about to drop it to Roman as we speak."Miz is awesome" chants against the Shield.
If they're all Motorhead, he can have ten.Does Triple H having 2 theme songs not bug anyone else? Maybe because its him.
I follow he on Instagram but really you don’t notice how built she is till she is standing next to others. She got some shoulders on her, then that posterior. Did see her deadlift 120kg with chains on it also the other day sooo she seriously strong!!Mandy Rose is something special
Post-Del Rio glow.I follow he on Instagram but really you don’t notice how built she is till she is standing next to others. She got some shoulders on her, then that posterior. Did see her deadlift 120kg with chains on it also the other day sooo she seriously strong!!
Woman’s division just became seriously intresting again as it was going a little stale. Honestly seeing Bayley and Banks come out again I was thinking not this rubbish again then game changer. Something looked different about Paige, not sure what tho. Did she grow taller or is she just slimmer or something.
The other giri can’t remeber her name but her saying “that’s right baby!!’ Repeatedly in quick succession just seemed weird.
The only thing missing last night was they should have found Nia and given her a beat down as well.
Crowd last night were the best they’ve been in ages.
Did they split? Had noticed she ain’t posted as many lovey dovey blah blah blah stuff.Post-Del Rio glow.

On tonight's WOR, Meltzer indicated that the Royal Rumble Main Event has changed. It was slated to be Finn Balor vs Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship. The Main Event now is up in the air.
"So the Royal Rumble Main Event was scheduled to be Brock Lesnar vs Finn Balor for the Universal Championship. And obviously, if you watched the show last night, you probably would come to the conclusion that’s probably not the direction they were going to go. And if you watched Raw tonight, I think that you would empathically realize that had to have changed. So what I was told was that the official change was actually made this morning. But it was definitely talked about yesterday. Vince McMahon felt that Finn Balor wasn’t over enough. I think obviously he decided even before, with how that match was laid out. Finn Balor wasn’t put in that match to shine."
The way I would have ended Survivor Series main event (once the remaining members were HHH, Braun and Shane).
HHH betrays Kurt Angle.
Braun tags himself in and walks out, leaving HHH and Shane the last two.
HHH gives Shane a beat down and is about to win.
Jason Jordan comes in and costs HHH the match.
Start a storyline with Angle, Jordan and Braun vs. The Authority, which would include HHH, someone to face Jordan and Kane.
Also Reigns isn’t over, and he gets to beat the Miz to win the IC and become a grand slam champion.According to Meltzer:
"Vince McMahon felt that Finn Balor wasn’t over enough" ... No feckin' shit Vince... book a guy to not win for a month after being hot in a match vs. Styles and yer man won't be over. Go figure.
Would be hilarious if the ultimate loser (that would be Bray Wyatt) slays the beast... but in reality, we all know how that programme would go:You know what is really annoying. We all pretty much know when Brock drops the title it’ll be to Roman. They’ve built Brock to such an extent that it’ll take someone superhuman to beat him.
If also he somehow drops it to someone else the whole immortal Brock thing seems kind of pointless unless we get another money in the bank situation.
I don’t even know why I watch wrestling any more as it annoys the feck out of me but foook do I love it!!
I just want Rusev to be doing something, ideally feuding with AJ for the title but even just a feud with Corbin for the US title, the guy is totally wasted. I vaguely remember them saying on Sunday that Jinder's rematch is tonight, please just get that over with nice and quickly so we can all move on.
God damn how could I forget about Bray did we ever see Sister Abigail or did his illness save us from that absolute shit show of a storyline with Finn. That bout of mono probably the best thing to happen to him in years.Would be hilarious if the ultimate loser (that would be Bray Wyatt) slays the beast... but in reality, we all know how that programme would go:
90% Bray chatting shit then getting his ass handed to him
Mandy Rose is smokin' hot. Haven't caught her work on NXT, but goddamn!
Thought Alexa was the hottest in WWE but the two new blondes brought up from NXT blow her out of the water.Mandy Rose is smokin' hot. Haven't caught her work on NXT, but goddamn!
