Raw/NXT/PPV Spoiler Thread 5

[Kimi]

Was KO officially called up though? I feel like he bounced between the two show until he dropped the belt to Balor.

For Balor to work in that context, you need to take the belt off him imo so he can stay up long term.

Owens was officially called up right away and went into headlining one of the house show tours with Cena.

He didn't bounce between shows, he just did the NXT TV tapings. Actually he did do NXT shows as they didn't do the bigger tours at the time.

Not sure if it's spoiler worthy, and nothing official yet, but Kalisto may have legitimately hurt his shoulder/collarbone in the Dudleyz match tonight.

Seemed kind of a strange to me when he went down, doctor was with him the whole match and Bubba went straight to him when the match was over, definitely didn't seem planned

 

[Kimi]

Wonder when they'll get board and leave again.

Let's ummm.. get way back on topic, please.

I like how my comment is the one to survive lol.


Anyway, WWE just signed a bunch of people for NXT. Nikki Storm being one I know well. The rest seem to be non-wresters.

On the topic of WWE Bullet Club. I was always under the impression from the sheets that the plan was always to do Bullet/Balor Club.

The question is just when they decide to pull the trigger. I recall Big Dave saying they wanted Finn to remain the top face in NXT for a few more months.

Plus they could be stalling to get the rights to use Bullet Club instead of Bulletproof or Balor Club. Also was pretty certain the plan was to keep AJ separate and as a singles guy.

Plans change of course. Maybe somehow Gallows and Anderson sneak there way into the Usos spot on the tournament and win the whole thing.

They go up against New Day, but the numbers game is in play and they need a third member. Cue Finn in jacket at Payback.

I'm gonna say yes.

They actually need more tag teams. After American Alpha are done with Dash and Dawson, where does that division go, unless there's new blood?

Well, TMDK are basically ready to go right now. Give them the standard month or so of orientation that all new signings have, and then put them on TV and they'll be more than fine. So that's one new team at least.

Hype Bros getting the push!

Ryder is apparently going back down to continue on with that.

Yeah, that's one. They've brought up a lot of tag teams the last year or so (losing two just this past week), though without replacing them.

I was a bit surprised they called up the Vaudevillians to be honest. I like them, but didn't think they needed to call up two tag teams just yet.

WWE trademarked "Total Bellas". They really might be eliminating the Divas term completely. Could just be for a spin off too since both Bella's are pretty much retired. I don't see how they could justify a spin off unless it is a Network only show considering Total Diva's ratings.

If it allows for me to see DB in some capacity, I will accept this turn of events. lol

I'm a fan of them too, but I frankly wasn't anticipating them ever being called up. I figured they'd just stick around NXT. But I guess you gotta figure out sooner or later if they can make it, and now's the time.

 

[The Gongshow]

If it shows DB and Cena (who is actually funny at times during the show) and more backstage stuff I'm down. Thats the only reason why I watch Total Divas to see the superstars interact with each other in the locker room /arena/outside WWE events. I'm hoping we get to see Miz more now with Maryse joining the cast

REwatching some Suit Jericho stuff. Holy **** I forgot how much I hated him. So amazing!

Suit Jericho was absolutely incredible. Stripping away every Y2J aspect of his personality and calling the crowd hypocrites and sycophants, and using big words no one uses like "axiomatic". Just an unreal run. That feud he had with Michaels was one of my favorites ever.

 

[Sarcastic]

Bray Wyatt appears to be injured. Was in a tag team match with Roman as the main event and shortly into it Wyatt had to be helped out and the rest of the match was cancelled.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Oh, no...

 

[Kimi]

This one really sucks. I hope it's something that he can heal quickly, I don't want to be without Bray for very long. Especially not right now when he's just started to do something.
