Lol.

So much for that.

 

Why not just have Bayley be the main event?

 

she was working a wrestler that hasn't debuted on tv yet in the semi-main.

 

Not sure how that's lol worthy.

 

Also, this Conner McGregor stuff is hilarious.

[META] Can we just have a McGregor mega thread please? • /r/SquaredCircle

 

DB's commentary, with Mauro, has been great. Especially watching the Gallagher match, what could have come across as a weird gimmick match instead became this really intriguing style.

 

Also, the #GloriousBomb stuff that Gargano/Ciampa are doing is hilarious

 

Well this was unexpected.

 

So Foley can show up at independent shows?

 

It's lol worthy because of WWE running a return vignette before he cleared medical eval.

 

Any talent that isn't competing typically has the go-ahead. It may change now that he is a GM. Ric Flair, Lawler, and some of the other guys make appearances and even wrestle indie shows. It's just a matter of what is in the contract. They may have 'no television' clauses or something.

Ciampa and Garganno are definitely going to be getting huge pushes now that everything is official with their WWE contracts. Really looking forward to that. Wouldn't be surprised at all if we saw them as the first folks to go to Raw.

Also hoping we see Roddy sooner than later.

 

Just caught up on that match. God damn that spot is incredible...especially coming after 2 or 3 other spots that were equally powerful.

 

The more McGregor talks, the less I like him.

 

I thought it was a work from the start, surprised it was a shoot.

 

I'm the opposite. I love the trash talking. And when he lost he was a great sport about it. Showed humility and wasn't a prick.

 

Project Ciampa was one of my favorite finishers in ROH, popped when he did it on CWC.

So happy Ciampa is getting a spotlight in WWE, when I first got into ROH he was one of my favorites, and I honestly thought they'd give him a run with the World title at some point.

 

Ciampa vs cesaro will be cool, just cause you know they're both bald and not cause they're both great wrestlers and what not.

 

bad troll

 

He ain't wrong

 

Real curious that the crossover thing would be. Can only imagine it would be "former WWE Superstar CM Punk competes @UFC 203" on WWE programming and "UFC Legend Brock Lesnar competes at Summerslam" ads on UFC media... although given Brock's drug tests, the latter may be less likely. But hey, money talks.
