What a crazy wrestling news day.

 

RIP Finn Balor's Universal Title run, 8/21/16 - 8/22/16

 

Looks like the tweets were deleted. What did they say?

 

Was just thinking about this. Their insistence on having Reigns on the upper card/main event is a big part of what killed last night. If that US title shitshow had happened earlier in the night, and the night finished as Finn/Rollins or Dean/Ziggler, then Brock/Randy, the last hour wouldnt have been such a waste.

We'd have given them crap for booking two DQ's/no-contests so close together in the mid-card, but forgotten about it once Rollins/Balor happened

 

That some big news might be coming down this week, and if what he's hearing is true could be the biggest wrestling news story of the year.

 

fuck me

 

So any news today or what?

 

Dudley's are retiring.

 

Lol this company

 

That really sucks

 

Whoa
What a day

 

That's all he shared?

 

Damn news about Finn sucks what a huge push to get snapped right away. Also bad luck it's another big name hurt by Rollins.

 

Yes then deleted the tweets when people got mad at him for being vague.

 

So Kane will probably be the new #1 contender tonight right?

 

demon kane is dangerously close to demon king

 

Makes u think
All kidding aside, sucks for Finn but he'll be back. Interested to see where they go now.

 

It was just "The Demon" in NXT. Why did they have to add "King" to the end?

 

If they wanted to spice up "The Demon", "Demon Prince" would avoided the King/Kane problem and also been a perfect callback to NJPW

but WWE gonna WWE

 

It's obviously to set up a feud with Kane, all new champs have to feud with Kane

 

Awful for Balor. Also can't help but feel bad for Rollins. Bret Hart is gonna call him reckless again. Maybe he should use the curb stomp again, it's safer than his other moves.

 

I have no clue if this is legit but here's the supposed redesigns of the IC and US titles that have been floating around

 

Na, those were reddit mockups, from what I gathered I'm sure they'd have the names underneath.

 

Best way to add prestige to your titles is to double how many and make them all look the same imo

(I highly doubt those are legit)
