That seems most likely, but if you move past RR, who's he defending it against at WM? I'm gonna throw out there that it'll be a heel Carlito.

It was extremely bad. Cena might have been right in saying it was time to bow out and take Jim as well I guess for the awful kick. The “greatest” cries about not winning a match and proceeds to not have a match. Really?

Haven't watched wrestling in a LONG time and was catching up with some YouTube videos. Whatever happened to James Ellsworth? He was funny and popular with the crowd. Did his gimmick just get old? Him and Chris Jericho are missed...

They got as much as they could out of him and his gimmick as they could and they let him go. If you miss Jericho, I hear he's working for another wrestling company.

Last I heard...No Chin was an accused Pedo/groomer

So saw a article few years old that talked about HHH daughter training to become a wrestler. Wonder if she is still planning to. She would be 18 next year so she could be signed to NXT then. If she would be serious and have any talent she would become the next Charlotte Flair and pushed to the moon once she got a couple years in NXT under her.

Decent night 1 of Halloween Havoc

Wasn't expecting the tag titles to change hands and the NXT Women's title match definitely deserved the main event spot that it got. Downside for me was the debut of Pillman Jr. enjoyed his AEW run a lot better. We'll see if they improve his stuff as time passes although his entrance was kinda cool.

indyguy · 10-25-2023, 09:47 AM

I know they changed up his name, but I really hope that BP Jr comes out in the throwback tiger stripe trunks. Just for one night.

Booker t is damn near insufferable on commentary...

The in ring is usually fairly solid, but the acting/skits are beyond awful

Decent womens hardcore match to start

Noam Dar is charismatic and can go in the ring...but the other 3 are awful

Tag team title match was solid, also surprised Chase U won, but good to see they are finally doing something with them

Nobody cares about the "breakout tournament" because honestly none of them are that good as the past few years

The Von Wagner stuff is way past beyond awful...

Good to see Pillman Jr get a shot, but also agree his character and in ring didn't work for me

Dolin/Priestly was solid...but...almost same as the opening match, just without the lights

Main Event pretty damn good...right person won, now Becky can go back to main roster and the new champ is made

JustinVerlander07 · 10-27-2023, 06:27 PM

Catching up on RAW before Smackdown starts.

WWE needs to get the belt off Rollins, it doesn't matter the gimmick, he's ALWAYS boring.

packman80 · 10-27-2023, 07:46 PM

Wonder if Matt told Chelsea to bring home that devil costume.

PLB9eight · 10-27-2023, 08:26 PM

Hope Roman buries LA Knight. He’s really over but it’s just hard to watch now for me.

He seems to have a issue with flubbing his lines a bunch. Also need to replace his finisher the stunner he does looks lame.

He's not the only one who flubs his line and he has one of the more believable finishers in WWE

JustinVerlander07 · 10-28-2023, 08:17 PM

I wonder where Knight goes from Crown Jewel. He's obviously not winning, and you can only assume Roman is going to Cody.

US title vs Paul

Yup, that's the play. He won't be in the ME of Wrestlemania, so he needs to have a belt and the US title is it. I honestly didn't think they'd hotshot him to Reigns this fast. If you look back, I made the argument that he should get involved with Rey against Lashley and go after the US Title.

To me the stunner does not look like it's effective at all. Owens does a better one.

He drives the forehead straight into the mat. It's like Rollins' stomp. He does it with authority too. That's what makes it a believable finisher. Guys hit the ground and come up on their back. It looks legit. Stunner, of course, looks great, but what Knight does isn't a stunner. It's more of a DDT/cutter type of move.

packman80 · 10-30-2023, 01:01 PM

See rumors of WWE considering turning Miz face and having him go for the IC title? Come on Miz does not work as a face he's made his HOF career as a heel.

I thought Miz was doing really well the last time they had him as a face when he ended up feuding with Shane. Thought they pulled the plug too soon. He's a better heel, but fans seem ready to just cheer him after all these years.

If it's just to feed him to Gunther though, why bother? RAW needs heels that aren't the JD, build him up for Seth, not for Gunther.

packman80 · 10-30-2023, 07:51 PM

Impressive show of strength from Julius Creed picking up Otis on his shoulders.

agreed, with Knight it looks more like he is taking the damage more than how his opponent is supposed to look with it

packman80 · 10-30-2023, 08:18 PM

So Miz vs Gunther at Survivor Series? Do you take the title off Gunther and push him into the world title picture?
