WWE: RAW/NXT/PPV Spoiler Thread 3 -- All Spoilers HERE

[Sarcastic]

According to The Observer, lapparently there is a chance that Brock and Wyatt will work a match at 32

Was this from yesterday or today? They did say that Wyatt standing tall at the end of Raw hints in that direction but they didn't say it would happen. They also mentioned that at one point Strowman was looked to work with Brock but that went down the gutter real quick.

John Cena posted a picture of AJ Styles on his instagram page.

Oh it's going down.

And now the WWE site is reporting that Cena posted the picture. Link.

Don't tease me, god dammit.

Don't tease me, god dammit.

I don't think it's in the cards unless it's from today's Observer. They said it could based on how Raw ended but they haven't heard anything to suggest it.

NoDQ.com > WWE > AJ Styles Starting with WWE Soon
Posted by Steve Carrier on 01/20/2016 at 04:02 PM

PWInsider reports that AJ Styles is set to begin his run with WWE this week. Styles will be at Sunday's Royal Rumble, RAW on Monday and the SmackDown tapings on Tuesday.

While there is no exact confirmation that Styles will actually be in the Rumble, he is still expected to make his WWE debut very soon, most likely one of those dates.

Hmm.

 

[Kimi]

Can confirm that Aj Styles may or may not be in the Rumble or on Raw. Maybe. No **** xD. Tell us something we didn't now at the start of the month when the news initially broke xD.

Don't shoot the messenger!

I would like AJ to not be in the Rumble but show up. I don't know how they want to introduce the whole Balor Club/Bullet Club thing, but I'd rather not just have AJ Styles have music and make his way into the ring.

I would love week to week mystery. Why are they here? Who is their target? Who is all part of the group? And so on and so on. That would make me actually tune in. I don't even DVR the show anymore. I follow along here and tune in if literally nothing else is on.

 

[The Gongshow]

So much Bullet Club stuff on the WWE website/social media. Maybe their smart and going to actually use them in a stable role? Have them show up at the rumble and beat down Roman Reigns or Lesnar??? Who knows. I will admit that its giving me a lot more reasons to watch RR this sunday now

WrestleZone.com has a post, citing PWInsider.com that the WWE is considering a Brock Lesnar vs. Braun Strowman match at WM32...



How hilarious would it be for them to go ahead and have Lesnar face a Wyatt Family member, only for that member to be Braun ****ing Strowman...

Oh WWE

Oh WWE

I think this is just WrestleZone citing PWInsider citing/taking out of context something Meltzer and Alvarez said. I remember them talking about it being considered before but it's not in the works as of now.

Right, I didn't say otherwise (used the word "considering"). However, if that's something Vince & Co even thought of, that's just bat**** ridiculous.

Oh I didn't assume anything, just giving the heads up of what I think is going on from what I heard.

I do agree it's crazy but hilarious they were willing to see Strowman in the spot but not Wyatt.

Clearly the same guy reporting on AJ Styles is the same guy reporting on Jonathan Druin.

"he may or may not be moved today, or tomorrow, or sometime next week, maybe"

Austin Aries is in Pittsburgh and it's believed that he's doing WWE's physical according to PWInsider.

 

[Kimi]

On the Strowman vs Lesnar stuff. This has been the plan ever since he made his debut, if you'd followed reports back then none of this would have been a surprise.

It the idea was for him to be Wyatt's new monster. A giant among a group of big men. The plan was to build him up strong before eventually feeding him to Lesnar/'Taker/Reigns/whoever when needed. The fact that he is very green wasn't an issue as the idea was for the character to be enough to overlook that aspect (and for him to be better than he is).

But the problem is he is green, and he doesn't feel like a monster even after being booked as one. He's not got anything like what Kane had on hid debut. He's just another big guy in the Wyatt Family. So the focus has stepped away form him recently and gone back onto Bray.


This is also a roll that Bray himself can' do. He's not a monster, and he's too important to just be feed to someone.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Wyatts will look strong according to the smackdown spoilers.

Still they have built guys up before just to feed to Brock in the live events so I'm not buying it yet.

Plus the booking might just exist to add "intrigue" to what appears to be an extremely predictable rumble match.

We shall see Sunday

Or is it just a car show?^^

He'll be a great signing. This has been a very busy January by the WWE.

 

[The Shockmaster]

Aries is 37. What with the NXT Indy stars and the influx of NJPW wrestlers, it'll be difficult for him to find a spot.

But they always feed Bray to someone. Saying he is too important isn't even true because all they ever do is feed Bray to people. They fed him to Cena, Taker, Roman, Taker again. How can anyone think NOW he is going to go over Brock of all people?

If he does wrestle Brock. Brock goes over and goes over strong.

They need to turn Bray face and put him in a program against the authority or maybe bullet club when it happens.

 

[ColePens]

Strowman sucks. It was weird about a month ago they were positioning him as the leader almost and then it disappeared. How stupid can a group of people be to think he's better than Bray?

 

[Kimi]

There's feeding and then there's feeding.

Bray never wins, but he's not fed to someone and then disappears down the roster. He always ends up working with the main event guys again. They always plan to use him again to put someone else over (and they know the massive potential they have with him, they're not idiots).

Strowman is more along the lines of an old Foreign Monster Heel that comes in squashing everyone before the American Babyface Champion finally beats them. They then fall down the card and disappear off never to be seen again.

Strowman is a one use guy, Bray is going to be around for at least another decade.

 

[Kimi]

But he is better than Bray. He's a monster that's never been pinned, and his crushed many opponents with ease. I'm not even sure if he's taken a single bump during his run.

He's not actually better than Bray at being a professional wrestler, but that's beside the point. But like I said, the focus was on him as a monster for a while; but when it became apparent that it wasn't working as they hoped they refocused on Bray again. But he was never the leader, he as just Bray biggest and bestest attack attack dog (well, elephant; the guy's massive).

 

[ColePens]

I mean I like that the argument is there, but no chance in hell do you make that feed at Wrestlemania. There is no argument for that.

What feeding Strowman to Brock at mania or Bray?
