Some actual backup for Rey...LwO shirts will look good on them

I really hope they don't get trapped in the LWO vortex.

Both shows being three hours. Plenty of time to give the tag division shit to do and not just be faction props.

Been a major weakness of HHH's booking

 

[yahhockey]

Maybe they will use the additional hour for oh, I don't know, maybe actual wrestling, lol. Unlikely but we can all dream.

Three hours is too much when they can't always produce two hours of meaningful content on Fridays. More time spent fast-forwarding through the show where I may miss something interesting because I'm trying to get to the end. Maybe it's time to grow up and let it go. Maybe not for myself but I'm confident there are people in the world that will decide the extra hour is too much and give up on the product entirely.

 

[HeisenBaez]

They chumped Balor so badly over the last couple years, and they're putting him with comedy wrestlers up against two of the hottest talents in the company. It's doomed to fail. Finn needs to be elevated once he's free of the Judgment Day stuff.

I'm ok with him having a faction but he needs better than Dom, Carlio and Jd M. Have him run with the Good Brothers would be a start.

 

[Emperoreddy]

JD is Finn's boy and protege. Probably will always keep him around in a faction if it's his choice

 

[Fish on The Sand]

With all the international PLE's now, it's getting too saturated. Only a couple shows to set up a feud and then move on to the next one. Sucks.

Right now there are a ton of TV feuds that aren't designed for PPV blow offs. Think Strowman/Reed and Wyatt's/American Made.

SNME would be they perfect opportunity to blow off some of these.

lucha bros either married and faithful or haven't watched any nxt

Exactly. Every feud going on currently doesn't need a PLE continue or finish it.

Or, these matches can take place on the other 6 hours of programming each week.

I get that there's a ton of content right now and that it's a lot to keep up with. I personally don't think I'll watch it all that often, but having a quarterly marquee a TV event isn't a terrible idea

 

[Sheppy]

Oh god. They're going to get stuck in the Latino vortex aren't they

Of course.

Triple H is obviously a way better booker than what WWE has had in the past, but i do find it kinda funny he has some of the same pitfalls Vince had. With the Lucha Bros being both a) Latino and b) a tag team, that's basically a massive double whammy against them already because neither have been booked particularly well under H. Even with how easy the Lucha Bros are to book, i still have no faith they'll get it right.

Welcome to the LWO black hole, boys. At the very least i hope you boys are paid handsomely for the nonsense that's about to occur (Though given how Penta does have a penchant for slowing it down, occasionally being lazy he's probably going to have a blast over there lmao)

Sounds like a proper group name for them.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Sounds like a proper group name for them.

Or at least a double team move

That too!
