2 matches announced
Roman vs Kurt's Son - I guess that's one way for Jason Angle to get some cheers, put him in there with the biggest heel in the company.
Braun vs Cena - The company's biggest babyface takes on the man with the face of a big baby.
I don't care about football, so I'll be here.
Join me, will you? |

Let's not say things like "I don't care about football" ... it's upsetting to those of us who do enjoy a delightful round of CTE-Ball.

I'll be watching both. Why are they giving away a match like that? It will seem weird when Jason Jordan is in the HOF.

Cena and Braun should be a PPV match as well.

Jason Jordan is a "young upstart" despite being in the WWE system since 2011.

It was a good creative idea to have Jordan job to Cena/Reigns after long, difficult matches. Works for everyone involved.

Commentary doing everything they can to put Jordan over huge. This is a pretty good match too, it's just the crowd doesn't seem that into it.
Maybe because you've saddled him with a stupid gimmick like "Kurt's Kid"?

I agree though, putting him in there with major players is only a positive.
Sure beats him squashing Hawkins for 5 straight weeks

That was a terrible line for Roman to say about Cena not having good matches for years.
Rollins, Ambrose, KO, Styles, Bryan, Wyatt, everyone in the US open challenge, etc
Annnndddd there's the failed drug test line by Cena.

I still don't get the purpose of all of this. It doesn't do anything for anyone.

Why are Alexa and Nia sitting next to each other? I mean whatever the fuck, WWE is turning me into Cornette.

Makes zero sense. At least have the fucking common sense to sit them on opposite sides of the table. Nia attacked her 2 weeks ago, now they're besties again? C'mon.
Also we all know Emma is in the match at the PPV to take the pin/submission, so would it really be so bad if she beat Sasha to actually make her look like a legit threat? No? Too much? Ok, then.

I'm sorry, Wyatt vs Balor at the PPV is billed as a "Man vs Man" match.
Boy they just are out of ideas for Wyatt aren't they?
And now Goldust is apparently face again? Because he's the only other guy who wears face paint aside from Balor? Whatever.

I'd actually be down for a Bray v "Natural" Dustin Rhodes feud.

I was one of the few, but I liked the heel Goldust promos he was cutting after he turned on Truth. They also said he was going to scout a new "star" in a promo prior to Summerslam, but nothing ever came of it.
Guarantee you they just completely forgot about it.

If you've Got a TV, you've seen it before. |

I remember hearing weird ideas of who that was supposed to be. Ultimately I heard it was Goldust, but I heard weird choices like Tom Green, Headbanger Thrasher, Goldust.
Goldust would've made sense, but didn't he get fired because of his drug problems? Which ultimately led him back to WCW, where he was Seven.

Asuka is coming to RAW. Not gonna lie, I fear they'll have her lose to someone like Dana or Foxy.
She should be on Smackdown honestly.
I give her undefeated streak 3 months tops before they have her lose.

Is calling someone a "lucha libre" a real thing?
Fuck you Cole.

Hispanic Battle Kat.
So sad. Bob Loblaw and I were talking about Samuray Del Sol over the weekend. So much potential.

Elias is going to get over. The wrestler and the fantasy sports team (depending on trades).

I like Elias & the character. But I agree his selling is non existent.
Also apparently Tits Bella and her Dancing with the Stars partner did a routine in the ring. She then body slammed him. Definitely not looking forward to coverage of that for weeks.

He got buried once he botched that promo last year.
So much potential wasted.

I give her undefeated streak 3 months tops before they have her lose. I don't remember where I saw it, but somebody suggested she loses her first match on the main roster. Never loses after that. I could see it working to an extent. At least it would give her a direction. |
