I didn't know that, that's bad especially as Becky is pregnant

It was before her pregnancy. The Riddle/Rollins beef exists before her comments and her comments were probably a poor way of hitting back at Rollins initially shítting on Riddle.

Started off being respectful to each other in 2018...

Then Rollins criticised Riddle in a fairly non-kayfabey way on The Bump in 2019...

Riddle says Rollins wants attention...

Riddle's wife talks smack about Becky's arse and Rollins last night is the latest chapter.

I love real wrestling beef!

Of course they all have lovely bottoms.

Well that was an unexpected return. More because I'd forgotten about him. Then describing Lars as the most athletic big man when we have the likes of Keith Lee.
And can they stop saying "freak"? Think Cole even said "freakiest freak"

Technically it's not the end of New Day as long as Kofi and Xavier are a team, so I assume one will end up turning on the other.

I always felt Xavier would be the one to go heel

I think Big E should stay face, maybe as solo now tone down some New Day cookies fun etc.,

J. Marston

In interviews they've said they are never ever turning heel on each other and if management ever bring it up they will all refuse.

The White Wolf

I guess between Xavier having his outside interests and Kofi having his family they'll always have a tease to write off the tag team without one turning on the other.

But Xavier as a heel seems too silly to pass up....all I'm sayin'.

Well good to see the draft sticking. 1 week after being drafted and Kofi and Woods will be back on Smackdown

It doesn’t kick in until The Raw on the 19th as far as I know.

To lose the SD tag titles?

ThePott

Seen a lot of people suggesting that based on tag teams being drafted separately and with New Day getting the Smackdown tag titles and going to Raw that the tag titles could be unified.

CastorTroy

Wouldn't surprise me with the lack of teams. Though would networks want their own titles?

Ridley

Trust WWE to highlight Stephanie McMahon being celebrated in part for fighting racial inequality then have her put Lars Sullivan into the draft.

I'm surprised Fox is letting that go.
"Tune in this Friday to see a load of guys you'll only be able to see on USA from Monday"
Especially because it means the winners are obvious.

That Roman/Strowman match is so utterly pointless.

The only feud that’s keeping my interest fully in all the companies

CastorTroy

So Zelina went to Smackdown and I assume Andrade stayed on Raw. To be expected I suppose with their other halves there.

So this whole thing of having recognisable people on the screens in the centre going to be an ongoing thing. Like the rumour mentioned above of Goldberg and he appears on the screen like that. Did they mention Keith Lee watching?

We get a video for Bianca and Daniel Bryan mentions her and Riott Squad, yet not one women's match. Just got the contract signing. And even though she singlehandedly, all by herself is responsible for the women's revolution, Steph didn't name one woman in that opening segment. Probably because what woman is more important to the division than herself?

Did he and Bryan feud before? I can't seem to remember any decent lengthy feud between them
