Yea they hate him a ton, been with the company for a decade, won the US title basically for getting over on his own, won the IC title at Mania, getting more TV time now than he has in about 4 years on both main roster TV and NXT, seems pretty obvious they're building him toward even more relevance...but yea, they hate him.

 

KO might be hurt.

 

Sigh. That was quoted from an Uproxx article. Damn them. Guess they never addressed it...lol.

 

Better not be. Are they ever gonna learn with these endless amounts of house shows?

 

Emma also apparently hurt at a house show

 

as much as i love house shows wwe needs to at least give them one more day out of the week off. i would say Sunday because you already have to pour out everything on a PPV on a Sunday, why not just give them the rest off. so the schedule would look like

Monday: RAW
Tuesday: Smackdown
Wednesday: house show
Thursday: off
Friday: house show
Saturday: house show
Sunday off/PPV

3 house shows a week is enough and then you add on RAW Smackdown and PPVs and you see that the wrestlers deserve more than one day off. Alternatively you could give Wednesdays off so the wrestlers can actually see their families for a couple days.

 

They have Wednesdays and Thursdays off now. All you're doing there is making them travel more.

 

They just need to be smarter in how they handle their house shows. For example, after Fastlane, they had KO do 9 straight singles matches between Raw/Smackdown/House shows in 11 days.

6 of those 9 matches were him facing Dean Ambrose for the IC belt and it ending in DQ. 2 or 3 of those could have been tag matches or triple threats, so he takes fewer bumps. Hell, at a house show, I'd probably rather see Sami/Dean v Jericho/KO anyway for the hilarity

They also need to take a cue from NXT, do some worked injuries, and give wrestlers a few weeks off here and there. While its a little long, think what the 2 month break is gonna do for Bray's return. He's gonna get a big pop

 

WWE trademarked Lady Balls. lol

 

The name of Steph's memoir most likely

 

Kind of an interesting thing happening right now: people that weren't injured and got to taking on heavier work loads than before are now getting hurt. HMMMMMMM

 

"Lady Balls" will probably be the Bellas catchphrase on "Total Bellas"

 

This is probably 100% accurate.

 

Damn, Emma needs back surgery. She can't catch a break.

 

“Emma has a ruptured disc that will require her to have surgery,”

Ew. So she's out for a little while. Makes me wonder how they are gonna handle Becky going forward. Clearly the plan was for them to feud at ER (in a tag, apparently) and then I bet going forward as a singles match into MITB.

 

I wonder if this week it will be the Uso's plus Reigns VS. Gallows & Anderson plus Styles in a.... street fight match! (Gasp!)

 

If only. Even that would be more interesting than what's actually planned. Usos vs Gallows/Anderson....again

 

Roman Reigns needs a gimmick so badly. How has it gone on this long? I can't figure it out.

 

Which will be interrupted by the aforementioned individuals. So it's basically the same thing.

 

Noooooo not Emma.

 

Nattie and Charlotte doing a contract signing segment tonight.

Always thought it was weird they will do this for matches randomly throughout the year. Like, 95% of PPV matches don't have a "contract signing" segment. What's the point of doing it for any of them? lol

 

lol they're still selling the "passionate" boos Roman gets as a positive

 

wow, what an ovation
