seems the craziest thing for WWE to do. Roman is SUPPOSED to be a face and yet he's getting booed so WWE decide to have him compete twice and have him in several segments to the point that it feels like he was on half the show!

and both matches end in DQ too.
Smackdown was a much better show.

I don't care for AJ being booked like Punk and playing second fiddle. It's expected that he won't ever go on after Brock or whatever RAW's main event is going to be, but he shouldn't be playing second to a Hell No reunion and the Bludgeons.
Buddy/Ali was the best match WWE has done since Ciampa/Gargano 1. It's so fucking depressing that the 205 guys work their asses off for a few fans in attendance and some smarks at home. They'll never get the credit they deserve.

I still say (and I'm sure I'm not the only one) that 205 would be better recorded at Full Sail. Record it on a separate day from NXT in front of an appreciative crowd that actually WANT to see 205. It might add so much to the show.

It might add so much to the show. Or they should do 205 "Specials" that they tape at Full Sail or before/after TakeOvers. Clearly 205 won't get on PPV anymore, so they could save these big matches for hour long specials and call it something like "205 Showcase." Even the past few weeks could have been an hour show: Cruiserweight Championship - Cedric Alexander vs. Hideo Itami No Disqualification Match - Mustafa Ali vs. Buddy Murphy 6-Man Tag Elimination - Lucha House Party vs. The Brian Kendrick, Gentleman Jack Gallagher and Drew Gulak That's a good hour show right there.

Eh, it doesn't have to be at FS necessarily, they are into it sure, but they aren't the best at determining quality. People Full Sail liked / were into -Asukla -Nakamura -Roode -Breeze -Dallas -Balor -Bayley -Ascension People Full Sail did not like / weren't into -Bliss -Carmella -Elias Do ya see the pattern?

I've said it before: UFC is as much if not more of a work than wrestling.

I've said it before: UFC is as much if not more of a work than wrestling. Well I think going THAT far is a bit of a stretch. But I do agree that UFC prioritizes ratings and PPV buys waaaaaaay ahead of the integrity of the sport, and lets things like drawing power and entertainment guide their decisions more than they should. It's a shame when amazing fighters get passed over because they're "boring" or because some bombastic jerk is gonna draw more money.

Another three hours of RAM, another 180 minutes of nothing happening. Drew/Seth was pretty good though.

Wew (NXT spoilers) Black's reign was a fucking bust. Mediocre win over Almas, okay title defense, and that's it. Nearly as bad as Drew's.

Haven't watched raw yet, heard about the all women's PPV and yeah, don't really care. That might be, unless you are in the women's title scene, you're not seen or heard from on TV. They don't do a single thing with any of the women who don't hold the gold, or being pushed towards it.
And I don't care about the tag belts either. They only have 3 "teams", if you can even call them that, and they job them out nonstop. I kinda wish the Iconics would go back to NXT, where they were at least a threat to win. They had something going on there.

Gonna be a very top-heavy event for sure with a bunch of filler shit in the midcard. My predictions, assuming the tag title thing is happening:
Alexa vs Ember - RAW Title Becky vs. Carmella - SD Title (rematch, Becky wins at SS) Ronda vs. Nattie (Nattie turns on Ronda at SummerSlam) Sasha/Bayley vs. Charles/Asuka - Woman's Tag MYC Final Baszler vs. Kairi - NXT woman's title
And then one or two filler matches, maybe a battle royal.
I also want to say I am deeply saddened that my friend, our boy Bobbo will not get to face the Beast at SummerSlam.

Roman winning isn't really a surprise. It's Roman getting his win back from Bob. It's Hogan vs Warrior at Halloween Havoc. It's Austin beating Kane 24 hours after Kane beat Austin at King Of the Ring. It's WWE and their 50/50 booking. In the storyline, it's Roman exorcsising the loss to Bob leaving him free to get the title he feels he should have won in Saudi.
Bob vs Brock would have been fresh and new but WWE are going with the whole cage match ending thing.
And Leon, "Top Heavy"? Really?

Three random thoughts from the NXT tapings {Spoiler}Dream completely eviscerated Johnny and he's fucking done. Kairi is cute. CUTE. They ruined the best thing about Ciampa.

Except for the Freebirds, three-man teams shouldn't even be on there.

Who made that list? The only HIAC match any ever talks about is Taker and Mankind. I don't even remember New Day v Usos..... All I remember of Cactus Jack and HHH was "Why are they trying to remake Taker v Mankind from last year? This is sooo stupid."

New Day vs Usos was great, though I'd have liked to see the Haitch/Batista HiaC. Classic under-rated match.
