    And switch back with the cruiserweight title yay


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,752 ✭✭✭Thepoet85


    Must have been some issue with getting people in. Just watched the first match and couldn't see anyone!!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,610 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    And switch back with the cruiserweight title yay

    Ridiculous. They finally gave the,selves something new and interesting and they switch it straight back. The title picture needed a new champ.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Surprised by the title switch. Now it just feels like Tozawa fluked his way to his title win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    Like if Neville cheated to win it wouldn't be as bad but it still is.


    Are those stills from a match?? Sweet jeebus

    Like they built him up only to take it away 6 days later on a pre show. Brutal. Tozawa has a certain IT factor too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    Smackdown tag match on the pre show is crappy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    It's been a great match, deserves to open the main show. Hands up who forgot about Orton vs Rusev?

    Cracking match. Very enjoyable


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    2 pre show matches, two title changes. I guess they're trying to sell the idea that the pre show is important?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    What a finish!

    Should have started the main show

    If the number of subscribers matches the YouTube viewers it's bad.
    Glad the Usos won, made sense with the lack of teams.
    Did Kofi sell his leg injury at all?

    Shawn Michaels dressed up as Colonel Sanders, he is actually the spit of him.

    Casual-ish fan here, the crowd are shouting "John Cena sucks" right?

    Seems a bit harsh, they cut the volume of the mics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Does cena need to be somewhere else tonight ? It's been a long time since he opened a PPV.

    He's giving himself time to rest so he can enter the Fatal 4 Way and win the Universal Title, because he's a free agent and he can.

    How does cena beating corbain clean help corbain ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,518 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    That's Corbin officially de-pushed anyway, as if there was any doubt after he dropped the briefcase.

    It doesn't, Corbin has heat backstage so he's being depushed

    It doesn't, at all.

    The guy is horrific. Terrible on the mic, no charisma at all, crowd are cold towards him and I can see why. He bores the arse off me.

    Well if it was backstage heat it's now official. Why does corbain have heat backstage ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,234 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Really hope Carmella cashes in. Tired of Naomi and Natalya is painfully boring (needs to reinvent herself as her SRW alter-ego).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Please don't have natalya win. She bugs the **** out of me.

    Apparently stuff he wrote on twitter, arguing with meltzer etc, funny he us a heel, acts a heel on twitter and got in trouble for it

    Went after Meltzer and a wresting podcaster who is also a military vet on Twitter

    He called a vet a loser, that's the real problem. Buried after 1 AA. He's not any good anyway. Another bad match for Baron.

    I didn't see his tweets with meltzer but I did hear he had had interaction with him on Twitter.

    I don't think either women's match tonight will come close to ember moon vs asuka last night. Ember had her becky lynch moment last night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭mrkiscool2


    Jesus, it looked like Naomi smashed her face off the external post, seemed like she couldn't get her hands up soon enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    The thing with corbin is he's not in great shape or that good of a wrestler and even in height wise not that tall really. I'll never get why they push him.

    Nattie is horrible

    What's the story with the veteran, was it them going back and forth, Barron called him a loser and that's when your man posted his army pics

    Its that's the case Barron had no chance to recover from that

    Isn't Corbin a 100% product of WWE though? I thought that was why

    I don't know the details. But there's no way you can disrespect someone in any military in the WWE even by mistake

    I know this might be silly but when dusty died natalya went to his funeral in a pink outfit. I thought that was poor form. I mean you don't go to a funeral in a bright pink dress.

    he's 100% díck from watching that breaking ground show

    I taught he came across alright on breaking ground. He wasn't the life and soul of the party but he wasn't an asshole.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Ah **** off. Carmella cash in now please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,348 ✭✭✭✭ricero


    Fantastic match by natayla and naomi. Fair play too them both

    Of course vince does massive shows for the troops, just curious was there anything to say Corbin knew he was a veteran before your man posted the pic

    Like you I haven't looked at the full twitter argument so just assuming


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,920 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    Damn, she's really crying! :eek: Grand match.

    It's all been deleted since.

    He's nothing special. Very much a lower card wrestler so no loss really

    Aye average, so-so look, okish worker, not really sure he is ever going to be a guy that will draw big money or have classic matches.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,254 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    Only back from work/pub and thought the pre show was 12-1. Caught most of the womens match and it was the worst but was really hoping Carmella would cash in especially when they cant mentioning the whole the harts and Summerslam


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    A quick squash please. After the intro Enzo goes downhill fast with the crowd, and it's a hometown crowd which is sad.


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


    Big Show with zero reaction.
