Television Tho Prop Grops Throps

Smackdown Live rights sold to FOX for over $1 Billion...WWE stock is currently up 19%

Fecking hell with this deal along with the Saudi one and WWE are raking it in.
 
Cant be surprised. A billion over 5 years. And the advertising on Fox will be immense. They will get ads for it during stuff like NFL.
Assuming it will be live on Friday.

It finally means WWE will have to make SD serious. Wonder if Fox will ask for an extra hour if ratings are good.
 
So spend weeks working turning Nia face, then in an instant turn her heal.

Also could you imagine if Braun whiffed that throw and launched that ladder in to the crowd...
Is it wrong that I hope the mountain signs for WWE or something so we can see him vs Braun. His finisher can be a version of the Oberyn. Vince would love it.
 
Credit to WWe. Theyve managed to outdo themselves by destroying Lashleys momentum before it even started. Quite impressive.

Where can you you watch it?
 
Will Ospreay :lol: Jesus no way would he get away with saying that in WWE (feck off you little cnut)
 
Haven't watched WWE since "Greatest Royal Rumble" - Quick update, anyone?

Are they still wasting Bryan's comeback on Big Cass*? Is Reigns still getting title shots every other week despite constantly losing?

(* What was the point in doing that? When he was cleared it should have been an immediate feud with Miz while everyone would have been drooling for it. By the time they actually do it now, nobody will give a shit. Biggest waste since the Summer of Punk and Del Rio's involvement)

Is Reigns still getting title shots every other week despite constantly losing? In a feud with Jinder now. They're fighting at MitB, which is in Chicago and they will likely massacre that match.

No title defence for Brock until Summerslam (who will actually pass Punk's 434 day reign in 3 days) but it's 95% gonna be Reigns again.

He and the commentary team have been calling him the "Uncrowned Universal Champion" because of the screwy finish at GRR (despite Reigns actually touching the floor first but they're ignoring that).

Thanks!

Yeah from a storyline purpose I cannot work out why Reigns keeps getting title shots. Since he last held it, I can think of 5 failed title shots he's had. Summerslam will be (at least) his 6th attempt. I could win it in 6 attempts. It's ridiculous.

Reigns has genuinely been giving promos about how the management have been trying to mess with him by giving him all these opportunities, no hint of heel in the promos either.

Some of the most absurd shit at the main event level in years.
 
Is there genuinely anything interesting at the minute in WWE? I can only think of Rollins' open challenge when they decide to do it and maybe, possibly the B team which still feels like a watered down version of Heaths story from a couple of years ago.

Crazy! I'm enjoying my break from watching it to be honest. I enjoy WWE and I don't even mind Reigns as much as some, but him being forced on us and Bryan's return being wasted has made it easy.

Did Reigns feet touch the floor first?

Strange. I wonder what their angle would have been if the botch didn't actually happen.

Brock would still win whatever happen on that match.

Excuse me, I meant what would have been the angle that followed the match. Brock still wins of course but what reason do they then find for giving Roman yet another title shot?

I dont know tbh, after WM i thought it was done and dusted because Roman lose clean but they still giving Roman chances after chances. With Brock never show up on weekly show, they dont have many angle to play for
