WWE

This comment was in the Dean Ambrose thread but it got me to thinking... What is wrong with the WWE? Make your list here. If you can make a list of 100 things, you get a gold star.

Brock v Taker official for Summerslam "Stephanie McMahon's Diva revolution" Never change WWE. Never change.

Dave and Bryan were talking about how Dean doesn't sell for anyone and he doesn't transition before his comebacks. For those who watch WWE regularly, I just wanted to ask if that's a fair criticism, and if Dean is a worse offender than anyone else here.

Thought this deserved its own thread. Confirmed by Dave last night on the radio show. I guess this is Vince's response to the sagging ratings. Can't say this is thrilling news. Going back to the past to patch up the present

This looks pretty good on paper... Pre-Show: R Truth vs. King Barrett - Garbage. I probably own't tune in to the pre-show. Sheamus vs. Randy Orton - I feel like Sheamus should win but I could see them putting Randy Orton over just because. The match could be really great or just there. Prime Time Players vs. New Day - I like the PTP so I hope they retain. This could be a fun match. Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt - I hope this is a one and done deal and not the beginning of a three month arc. I know people are really high on Reigns as a wrestler and I feel like Wyatt is the perfect opponent to see how good Reigns really is. John Cena vs. Kevin Owens - …

OK... RAW

Yep that is no typo.

This thread will be for the definitive "Best Matches in WWECW History". As I watch the shows I'll post the matches that I think would make a comp, you all can follow along and comment as well. ~Vince MacMahon, Shane MacMahon & Umaga vs. Rob Van Dam (5/8/07) ~CM Punk vs. Steven Richards (5/15/07)* ~Yoshi Tatsu vs. Shelton Benjamin (7/9/09) ** ~Vladimir Kozlov vs. Christian (7/9/09) ** ~Christian vs. Shelton Benjamin (7/14/09) ** ~Paul Birchall vs. Yoshi Tatsu (7/14/09) * ~William Regal vs. Yoshi Tatsu (7/21/09) ** ~Tyler Reks vs. Paul Birchall (7/21/09) * ~Sheamus vs. Goldust (7/28/09) * ~Christian vs. Zach Ryder (7/28/09) ** ~Sheamus vs. Go…

With Meltzer reporting that Vince sees Lana as a big star and what happened at Mania I fear for Rusev. Obviously Vince is missing the boat . Rusev is ready for a main event run. I just think he'll ruin him. What do people see going forward for Rusev?

Brock vs. Jamie Noble's rednecked-up Cadillac was grandly entertaining. Although I hope Joey Mercury is okay, as that bump was nasty.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/3cht6x/the_reason_why_wwe_commentary_is_so_badhere_are/ The insane depth of rules shows exactly why the announcers stink.

OK, my wacky sleeping schedule is causing me to watch this live. Here's the reported card from the Observer... Cesaro vs. Diego Lucha Dragons vs. Big E & Woods, Nikki Bella vs. Paige vs. Naomi for the Divas title Jericho vs. Neville Owens vs. Balor for the NXT title Lesnar vs. Kingston Cena & Ziggler vs. Kane & Barrett Lets do this!

Cena/Cesaro with a hell of a match on Raw. But the big news is our own Graham Cawthon made the bottom scroll on Raw with one of his tweets!

Current WWE is gone so I'm tossing this up to stick with the trend. So, so disappointed with the Brock show last night. Its fine for him to sell and be laid out when appropriate, but if you're going to do that please let some folks other than Kane & J&J get heat for it. Really surprised Brock & Heyman didn't veto it but I guess as long as the script it is written in green they're on board.

It's time.

OK, the show is a few hours away and I think it is time to make predictions. R-Truth vs. King Barrett (Kickoff Match) - Lame. Nikki Bella vs. Paige - If there goal is to make Nikki the longest reigning women's champ then I see no reason to bet against her. Ryback vs. Big Show - The common sense thing to do is have Ryback win and build the belt. With that said, would it shock anyone if they gave it to Big Show? New Day vs. Prime Time Players - New Day retains. Money in the Bank (Roman Reigns vs. Sheamus vs. Randy Orton vs. Kane vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Neville) - Before the E Chamber, I would have said this is guaranteed to be a great…

This is a companion thread to the Success Stories thread and NXT Future thread. I went to the WWE website and typed out the roster they have featured on the website. I separated guys into a few categories. Help me figure out this roster. READY TO GO - all of these guys could go toe to toe on the main roster if called up tomorrow. Size issues means they would all probably have mediocre runs but not because they can't go. If you are going to an NXT house show, this is who you are going to see. For the divas, I have no hopes they would do any better than Emma or Paige but they aren't bad from what I have seen. I put Crowe in here because he was the best indy wre…

The Card Neville vs. Bo Dallas Triple Threat: Nikki Bella© vs. Paige vs. Naomi (Divas Championship) John Cena vs. Kevin Owens Elimination Chamber: The New Day© vs. Lucha Dragons vs.Tyson Kidd & Cesaro vs.Prime Time Players vs. The Ascension vs. Los Matadores (Tag Team Championship) Elimination Chamber: Dolph Ziggler vs. Sheamus vs. Ryback vs. R Truth vs. King Barrett vs. Rusev (Intercontinental Championship) Seth Rollins© vs. Dean Ambrose (WWE World Heavyweight Championship)

Bayley & Charlotte vs. Emma & Dana Brooke Baron Corbin vs. Rhyno Finn Balor vs. Tyler Breeze vs. Hideo Itami Blacke & Murphy vs. Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn SHow's about to start. Who out there is expecting something big to happen on this show?

Not sure how I missed this, but apparently Cena/Owens from Elimination Chamber was non-title? Good little Owens-Neville match to start things out. Aside from Neville overshooting Owens (or Owens underestimating Neville) on an Asai moonsault.

New week. Two weeks until MITB!!!

I'm fairly sure I'm not alone on this. But there is one very big reason I think this is the case. It's not the women's division or the fact that guys like Neville, Zayn, Breeze and Balor get a push. Those are certainly wonderful things. What I think makes NXT better than the main show is the overall presentation as a wrestling program. From week to week the stories and matches are presented in a way that builds on what was done before. The characters evolve as time goes on in a (usually) logical way. On the main show it seems like the direction things are moving is constantly changing and impossible to follow. The reason I think this is a huge advantage for NXT is…

So... anything newsworthy from RAW so far?

So why can't women headline WWE ppvs again?

Announced for Raw John Cena open challenge Nikki Bella v Naomi New Day v Kidd and Cesaro with Xavier banned from ringside A Brat Wyatt match And the return of Stephanie to WWE programming after nearly 2 months away. No doubt they were delaying Kane's face turn to wait till Steph could come back to TV and scream at him. I expect that to go down tonight
