I'll take Meltzer over Uproxx any day.

 

Uproxx gets most of their info from Reddit, soooooo

 

Obviously Meltzer is the reliable one there but listen, I just want to be unreasonably optimistic :(

 

Haha I hear ya. I've called the writers out on Uproxx on numerous occasions for inaccuracies. I mostly stick around for their best/worst over/under posts. The Lucha ones aren't happening as frequently as I'd like.

 

Meltzer is talking up a hell of a lot the Kushida/O'Reilly match from Best of Super Juniors.

 

WWE is reportedly considering a Women's MITB match.

 

Two of the best in the world. KOR is my fave right now for sure.

 

Have a guess-off for how long the Shane/Steph segment is.

Would actually be pretty sweet. Though, it'd be a hell of a way to introduce Bayley, but I know they arent making that move yet.

 

I can't imagine that being a safe environment for Sasha currently, but she would own that match

 

Meltzer said it could be an elimination match rather than a ladder match due to safety concerns.

The female wrestlers don't have much experience in ladder matches that I'm aware of so an elimination match might be what we get if it happens.

 

By elimination match, I hope that doesn't mean a battle royal type match. I was assuming he meant an actual elimination match (eliminated by pinfall or submission).

 

An Aztec Warfare type thing for the women could be cool. They should give the ladder match a shot at the very least though.

 

Any sort of Women's MITB would be pretty awesome.

 

i think the same happened with Undertaker / fake Undertaker.

 

how... how the hell did they do this?

 

Sheamus/Zayn
Miz/Cesaro
Owens/AJ
Ziggler/Ambrose
Crews/Jericho

All qualifying matches for MITB tonight

(tweeted by WWE so no spoilers needed)

 

Interesting to see Crews in the mix. If I had to guess out of that it'll be Zayn, Cesaro, Owens, Ambrose, Jericho though.

 

Watch Cesaro's hands towards the end. He grabs Zayns legs and throws his weight back. Keeps Sami from dying, and makes the move look sick.

Guessing thisis the outcome, but Owens/AJ is a crazy matchup. Really curious if Crews goes over Jericho

Also, where will the other 2-3 guys come from?

 

I actually like the verbiage on the back of the new Rollins shirt. It isn't cheesy and isn't a big awkward give away that the shirt is specific to wrestling.

 

Hope one of them is Bray and he just isn't quite cleared yet

 

Mass confusion

 

Well, that babyface run didn't last long, hahaha

 

haha, really trying to make Seth the heel. Great speech though.

 

Welp

 

Oh so he is a heel. But they are going to cheer for him when he fights Roman because he is Roman.
