Television Tho Prop Grops Throps

The derby felt like a WWE pay per veiw, goldberg vs lesnar match. SO much hype and you get a dab 90 second match.
 
Seriously, all of you get the feck out.
 
How can you have an event called that?

How can you have an event called that scheduled for when Kane is unavailable?!

How can you not involve the New Day?!

At least Bebéley will be there.
 
Shame they couldn't have done it a few years back, and put Balls Mahoney in an Inferno match.
 
How can you cut a promo and say "great balls of fire" seriously. If the wrestling isn't top notch this is automatically in the worst ppv's of all time.

This is why they brought JR back. He was the only one who could do the FRUITY! FRUITY! SKITTLES! thing. If anyone can call Great Balls of Fire, it's him.

I'll link to the fruity skittles thing because it was ages ago and I might be the only one who remembers that.
 
Can we really even call them PPVs anymore? Nobody actually pays for individual events, do they?

As for the name, it's got people talking.

The worst name has to be "In Your House: It's Time!" which did not have Vader on the card.
 
The promos will be fun in the lead up to it. Wrestlers threatening to beat each other up at "Great Balls of Fire."

Even the logo is awful...

It has worked. All I'm seeing is imagine a serious promo or trying to take the event seriously. Just by naming it this they've guaranteed more viewers in build up and more people watching the actual event. If people really think Vince has just named this PPV this cause he thinks it a cool name for an event then I'd stop watching wrestling. He knows exactly what he's doing calling it this.

Yes it's a shit name but I'm already looking forward to Paul Heymans, Miz and Kurt Angles promos on it.

No is buying the network just for the name of a PPV. It creates buzz on social media and that's it.

Don't think bliss will beat belee, still need Sasha heel turn, which only works well if belii is champ.

I was actually supposed to put her to win but spent more time remembering how to spell her name :(
 
Really want tonight to end with Strowman pushing over another ambulance after annihilating Reigns. There's more chance of CM Punk singing I Got You Babe with Vince but I can dream.
