I wouldn't call performing with Seth/Roman/Punk a downgrade... haha

Now, if he's legit JUST muscle and never gets on the mic or it fizzles out quickly, then you can call that a wasted opportunity... but still not a downgrade IMO.

i would rather have him with his uncle

So Becky returns again and will probably be taking the title off a young talent like Lyra? Typical Becky. Hmmm seems like ppl always say someone else does that, yet that someone else put over two young women at Manias to help them on their way. Interesting....

Raquel Rodriguez being mean to and slapping away Carlito will always be funny.

Holy hell...the Rock loves to talk and ramble on and believes all the crap he spews

As a casual who has just gotten into it when RAW moved to Netflix, how is the Smackdown after Wrestlemania usually?

I’ll actually be in Fort Worth and was thinking about grabbing some tickets.

It’s about the same as the Raw.

I enjoyed RAW, so that’s good to hear. Will prob pick up some tickets and go to my first event since I was a kid

Yep, my assumption will be the end goal is Bron turns on Heyman/Rollins or they turn on him and it culminates likely with a title win. This is huge for Bron, not in the sense of Rollins (that's unfortunate) but to be with Heyman.

Heyman was quoted as saying that Rollins, right now, is the 2020 version of Roman Reigns and that we haven't seen anything yet.

The Rock is Hogan. That's why Wrestlemania 18 was so great, they are the same person.

I saw that, but for how bad Reigns' character was all those years, this doesn't feel the same. Rollins has had good characters, I personally haven't liked basically any of them and just think it's a case of him being Triple H's guy where he'll be overpushed into something he doesn't belong in.

Pre sure Alleister Black is supposed to come back that Smackdown so if you’re a fan of his that’ll be a plus, eitherway should be a cool return live plus whatever else planned

Who does Stratton face next? I can’t see it be against Flair.

Im a Flair fan and I dont want to see them wrestle again, because they dont work well together. There isn't alot of options on SD. Naomi, Green, Niven, Fyre, Nia Jax, LeRae. Those are the heels that I can think of besides Flair. I'd say Roxanne Perez but they just did that match for no reason. Faces are Vega, BFab, Michin, Jade... Unless they have Bianca on SD and turn her heel, I guess they could do that

Ric Flair broke the news that former 4 Horseman Steve "Mongo" McMichael has passed away

At this point, anyone other than Bianca is a step down and uninteresting. Unless they turn Stratton heel, but that would be dumb.

Chelsea Green is their next big star, would love to see her move up. She's fantastic.

Oh, I would be on board with that 100% of the time.

I just assumed there are still quite a few ladies she needs to go through before she drops the title. I think the whole point of adding these secondary titles was to build up some of the women who haven't had the opportunity, and Green is a great title holder to help do that.

My question is, who's the woman who is big enough to beat her right now?

Probably someone from NXT? (Kelani Jordan? I don't know I don't watch the product) I guess Jade or Naomi, other than that? Nobody?

I just don't know that there was much thought into the secondary titles other than to treat them like the men. I mean Lyra has the other title and has barely defended it and besides the fact she's boring, it feels like she often isn't on the show. Wasn't the biggest fan of Chelsea initially but she has so much charisma and has definitely won me over. Her Rumble performance was the cherry on top for me.

Jaida Parker would be my pick. She's more than ready, in my book. I'd like to see her called up sooner rather than later. I would run a program with Zelina, have Zelina win, have her go through a couple contenders and then lose to Jaida. I'm that high on Ms. Parker.

Zelina Vega has beaten Chelsea twice in recent weeks so it seems like they're building her up to take the US title eventually. Maybe that frees up Chelsea to win MITB and go after Tiffy?

I don’t think Becky is back for a title run, I think she’s back to get Lyra over. WWE is pushing her but she has no heat at all, and I feel kinda bad for her when she comes out and does the bird calls to dead silence. Pairing her with Bayley and then Becky has to be an attempt to get her over.

[ThatGuyPal]

The person who is gonna beat Chelsea will be Piper mark my words or not, you’ll see it happen regardless.

The question to me is does Chelsea remain heel and Piper gets tired of being a lackey or does Piper become monster heel and turn on Chelsea without much reason possibly taking Alba with her and Chelsea starts her face run

She's facing her for the title tonight.

Call me crazy, but I just don't see a three-peat in her future.
