    How is Cena next for Reigns?

    I feel for Cesaro, was hoping his push would continue ending with a world title reign

    WWE following in the footsteps of AEW who have aired there last few PPV's in cinemas in the US and have struck a deal with a chain of US cinemas to air Summerslam in them.

    I want a 3 way dance between The Rock, Cena & Goldberg since they are all returning for this.

    The Rock to confront Reigns and Usos?

    I'd love to see Heyman get Rock Bottomed

    Rumors now saying SummerSlam cancelled and wwe will be back to ThunderDome shortly as the Delta variant is becoming a bigger issue.

    We shall see....

    Im pretty sure the take up of vaccines has slowed down in America with only about 60% fully vaccinated and its mostly the red states are not taking it.

    Except WWE did it first a few years ago and the first few wrestlemanias were shown in cinemas.

    Well there’s a reinstatement of mask mandates in Nevada so if WWE do go ahead in Nevada then there’ll be an arena full of people in masks.

    Yep latest update is WWE has secured a building for Thunderdome 3.0

    Looks like summerfest won’t be the event they thought it would be.

    Well, that's shíte. Roman/Cena has a big fight feel and a crowd would've been great for it.

    I watched a few WWE PPV's in the cinema while living in Canada in 2001 and 2010 so not really a new thing.

    Presumably if wwe are doing that then AEW will have to do the same given they are the same industry and issues with Covid would impact them the same.

    I’m sure AEW Have backup plans like WWE it makes sense as the delta variant rips through America.

    Card is so meh.

    There’s no chance Reigns is losing so where’s the stakes. Oldberg will be 1 and done again after he eats another loss.

    The only interesting match is Edge/Rollins even then Edge isn’t the future of this biz.

    Corbin to cash in. 🤔

    Cena referred to it as the grandest stage of them all. Guess Mania has been forgotten

    Looks like Bianca v Sasha is in doubt as both missed live events over the weekend due to "unforeseen circumstances" which you would assume means they have been impacted by Covid in some way.

    Just from looking at their tour dates I think AEW have been a bit cuter in their venue selections. Mostly northern states like NY / Penn / Illinois which aren't being as badly affected this time around. The vast bulk of the current cases are in the southern states where vaccination uptake has been lowest.

    Really looking forward to seeing this from an aesthetic point of view in the raiders stadium which is incredible.


    Summerslam from now on in a stadium is going to be huge for the company.

    BT Sports summerslam coverage and content this week has been excellent.


    Same with their ufc coverage. Second to none.
