So I'm pretty sure I chanted TEN in my sleep.

I'm excited for Survivor Series but that was just so good. It won't be topped.

Hunter already brought in some of the NXT staff for Smackdown. Ryan Ward is the lead writer there, and as a result, the shows often gets better reviews.

Vince won't be dumb enough to job out Asuka when she comes up, though. Hunter won't let him go that far.

Loved Triple H's quote about the event. Basically says that this isn't the main roster and this isn't some chicken **** writing staff. He knew that the world thought that it was nakamura's era and everyone and their mother thought he was never going to lose this match so he swerved everyone.

at least that makes sense i just wish they had someone else do it since joe lost it to him to begin with.

If Joe and Nakamura are coming up at roughly the same time, I guess it doesn't matter which one is still holding the belt.

Tom Phillips is good, but he's not "let's have a 4-man booth good" like they're doing on Smackdown. Didn't even have a spot at the table for him. But he is good and will be good going forward when Michael Cole is done.

They're meant to be taping the show in Osaka in December, so having Nakamura chasing Joe makes sense for that.

Japan fans aren't stupid, they shouldn't need that. It's only a taping, not like it's a Takeover. Don't think it should matter.

They could easily have Joe drop the belt in San Antonio then show up
In the rumble and knock out brock and set up a brick vs. joe matchup

That was a great ****ing swerve having Joe win the belt back. A lot of times the results of these matches are really predictable. Didn't see that coming at all.

Revival/DIY goats.

Was awesome when Asuka just raised the title when Mickie went for a handshake.

Revival and DIY is going to be for tag teams what Sasha and Bayley were/are for the women. We'll be talking about these matches forever, and the main roster tag teams are going to be pissed they can never have matches like that.

Agreed. I'd also add Revival vs American Alpha as well to the tag list.

Revival is the best tag team of 2016 and if you don't agree you're wrong

He is one of the biggest, most talented stars in the world.

No need for brakes. Did you question whether AJ was going to be over?
AJ has been a huge star in North America for a long, long time. Calling Nakamura "Daniel Bryan-over" cause he got a great reaction from an NXT crowd is too much. Bobby Roode was over as **** too, is he Daniel Bryan over? No.

Nobody is Daniel Bryan over. I think people who say that are forgetting how over Bryan was

Being super over is one thing but being Daniel Bryan over is another completely different level.

I want to see how Revival do against a different kind of opponent.

Both DIY and Alpha are basically the same babyface team that gets screwed by the cheating heels, and that's the perfect match up for Revival. But that only works when you have that pure babyface guy like Gargano or Gable to target and screw over.

A team like New Day will be a very different dynamic.


But I think they'll end up on Smackdown anyway and just side step that. No reason not to beeline toward Alpha vs Revival again.

I still think the "Yes" chant borders on "What" territory, in terms of most annoying phenomena of wrestling fandom. :laugh:
