WWE: Raw and Smackdown Part 4 - The Paul Levesque Era

[Emperoreddy]

Merch for a debuting wrestler already out in the world, so doesn't seem like it's meant to be a surprise.

Yeah, super strange for them to go that route before said wrestler even debuts, lol.

I mean last week they showed his name in the promo, so it's not a shock they have merch. Also, I don't think they want Penta to be a huge surprise because they'll want more casual fans to look him up before his debut.

Not gonna lie, this is a dope looking hoodie

Better to do that than have him come out as a surprise Rumble entry to a "Who?" reaction.

And with Penta in the WWE audience, that would probably happen.

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

Depends on the guy. When you're AJ Styles, you get a reaction. Penta? Not so much.

Same reason they wisely introduced Aldis from ringside rather than giving him a full entrance to no response.

For what it's worth, under the Triple H regime they're very good at knowing their audience and how it will react, and how to counter those reactions.

 

[Emperoreddy]

There is also the argument that knowing someone cool is showing up draws more views then pure surprises.

There should be a balance, but I'm not sure Penta needs to be a surprise.

It's also completely out of the box as along with the merch they have him actually in the merch now.

 

[Jussi]

So Penta's theme slaps.

 

[izzy]

That was a rough start for sure, Penta not used to the slower, more deliberate wwe pace

but Gable is a perfect guy for this match and its gotten better and better as its gone on

I dont have Netflix, so this is only way to keep up with what's going on...looks like FB already shitting on Penta for being bad...

 

[Jussi]

Penta had to do a lot of selling due to Gable focusing on his knee left. So it might have been different than what he's used to (?) but I thought that was a good debut.

Also, Liv making Dom her bitch by putting him in the doghouse.

 

[Sheppy]

Penta definitely had to slow things down a touch. He’s balls to the wall, but overall not a bad debut. A few little hiccups.

They didn’t butcher his theme though, that’s a good sign.

 

[Jussi]

Kross told Miz that he's been moved to Smackdown.

FEMINISTS RISE!

If they do then Gunther would win it back at RR.

Yeah what i thought. Not perfect but not bad

I thought it was fantastic. Gable tried to slow him down. They actually tried to tell a story vs AEW spotfests.

 

[izzy]

[Jussi]

Bayley addressing the history with Dakota.

 

[Jussi]
