    whos going to flip on who ???

    Shane on Bryan or the other way around


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,455 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I could see neither; I have a feeling they'll have it that Bryan is manipulating Sami and Kevin so they turn on each other, and Bryan can convince Shane thats way better than "just" firing them...


  • Registered Users Posts: 60,626 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I kind of want to see how they would go with co-champions for the run up to WM.


    Also it's probably the only chance Sami has at ever getting a title.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    They can't do co champions, the belt becomes worthless then.

    Did anyone notice when SmackDown where showing the highlights of raw 25??

    They showed an image of stone cold stunning Vince with a still of a review about the show.

    It was a negative review they showed!!!

    How did that get aired??

    I only noticed watching Smackdown that they changed that Universal Studios prize to just Naomi and Jimmy and not The Usos(so maybe Jey to get suspended after Royal Rumble?)

    Also when the icon comes up for Naomis entrance they have under her accomplishments(or whatever its called) that she starts on Total Divas and was a dancer for Flo Rida , while not mentioning she is a 2 time smackdown champ

    Would it not have made more sense to have a triple threat match? Zayn and Owens are supposedly at a comparable level to AJ individually, so its a bit hard to suspend your disbelief that both of them teaming up wouldnt just destroy him in 2 minutes. The other side is that if AJ beats them it completely ruins both of them. Even if it was a case of whoever got the pinfall would be champion it gives a little wiggle room in that they could be quarreling over who gets to go for the pin, AJ bumps one out of the ring and roles the other up for a quick win

    Ricochet interferes and costs KO/Zayn the win

    Or they just go the usual route of AJ winning due to miscommunication between Sami and Kevin.

    Has there ever been co holders of the world title? I know the IC title has

    Co holders ? No I don't think so. I don't thinks it's a good idea.

    Bit of a team Hell No vibe mixed with Chris and Kevin from the lads.

    Would be funny to see Sami tell Kevin that Kev is WWE Champions but Kev tell Sami that it is in fact Sami who is WWE champion.

    Also, they are enjoying themselves, that is important and that goes through to the fans. I can deal with whatever they come up with as it is presented as important.

    I can see them getting milage from this if they do win, however its a mid card act. Be grand with the US title, but with the top title it brings it down a few notches.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,171 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Maybe that's the plan.

    Take the proper title down a notch and push the red toy as the main one.

    make Roman look strong

    Yep, because, to use Roman's famous catchphrase "That's the bottom line, coz Roman said so"

    I can't get into matches with ubber obvious results. People have always said HHH v Ambrose for the title on the way to WM32 was a great match but I never watched, same as I'll be for this one with Styles and whoever it is.

    I think Zayn vs Styles will headline Fast Lane. It's a unique main event, especially considering Styles vs Owens was done numerous times last year without catching fire.

    Maybe Owens to cost Zayn the title, as revenge for Zayn winning next week Smackdown's match? Owens vs Zayn at WrestleMania...

    Preview for tonight
    http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/2018-02-06

    Anyone have the feeling we might get a poke of doom type thing in the KO vs Zayn ??


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,941 ✭✭✭krustydoyle


    Well that outcome was very predictable


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 24,820 Mod ✭✭✭✭Loughc


    Anything to read into Shane mentioning to Bryan that he knows he wants to compete?

    Are we going to see Bryan back in the ring at Mania?

    They didn't put that in by accident.

    However, it could be leading to something, or it could be a swerve. it's WWE. but that line was on purpose.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,970 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    They rigged the crap out of that top 10 list anyway. Tye Dillinger at 10 what a coincidence. Naomi at 4 yeah right and Charlotte at 2 madness. Orton looks like completing the Grand Slam.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,549 ✭✭✭The White Feather


    That was another very dull Smackdown. I thought KO and Sami both being heels that it would be the end of their matches for a good while. But no its WWE and suddenly they are fighting again. In the main event no less.

    I buzz on every time New Day are on my screen. Haven't watched any segment they are involved in for months.

    This new WWE thing of putting certain words of a promo onscreen is terrible. Looks so like a kids show. I suppose thats what they are aiming for though

    WWE ordered 5000 more Rusev Day calendars after their initial order of 2500 sold quicker than expected.Shows how well he is doing.
    Crowd chants Rusev Day loudly at Shane and he says duly noted

    Rusev then gets pinned clean and then RKOed as well......:rolleyes:

    They should turn New Day heel and have them against Rusev Day for Mania. What day is it? A good story there.

    This tweet about Gable and Benjamin made me laugh out loud!

    Naomi got one of the biggest cheers from that list though. Surprised me, I thought Becky was the most popular women's face on Smackdown but seemingly not.

    What is the point of the list anyway?
