Alexa?

CastorTroy

Explains her not being at Smackdown.
I think if it was Alexa she would have to win.
Maybe Lacey?

There's a time and place to elevate someone to a main event level, tonight is not that, tonight is the island chief reminding everyone who the provider is.....

Mysterious backstage attack, bayley brags, Sasha attacks?

J. Marston

Yeah, I reckon Lacey if it's a replacement. They won't want Alexa losing with her new gimmick.

PTH2009

A certain Charlotte might get that open title chance just because

A bloody ambulance match for a world title. Hard to knw who will win it and what credibility will be gained from it

I hope Roman beats Jay to a bloody pulp and sends out a massive statement

The IC ladder match will steal the show hopefully

JP Liz V1

Why Lacey, she has been on a losing streak? Did Miz or Morrison get Otis MITB?

Lord TSC

The women’s tag match is also off, according to post wrestling. Presumably one of them also Covid infected.

Agent Coulson

Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax both out.

I enjoy how you acknowledge some real life things but completely ignore others........

Charlotte is coming off major reconstructive surgery, she's not coming back to lose a non important match to bayley.....

CastorTroy

All the women must've been at that NXT party.

Could have Alexa lose by DQ to buy into the unhinged gimmick.

Furious-Red

Im guessing they might through Heavy Machinery vs Miz/Morisson to the card?

Asuka vs Vega is the pre show (poor asuka)

Yea i think Roman has to destroy Uso, but give him a few moves. Maybe have Roman destroy him more after the match , could they something similar to Taker vs Hardy 02 where he keeps getting up except this time on the last one Jey doesn't get up.

Maybe Naomi to take on Bayley?

Rumour has it there is a tag tournament starting tomorrow for them. Terrible idea if true as wwe don’t have enough women tag teams.

Itssoeasy

That ladder spot can’t have been nice. The ladder followed Jeff over the top rope.

Loughc

An actual inventive finish to a ladder match for a change.

Back to Sami we go so.

sky88

Great match

PTH2009

Ha

Sami your IC champion leave it al that

Itssoeasy

Well that was an interesting ladder match. Sami zayn looks like a hobo.

In fairness it’s his lockdown look a lot of people have adapted the hobo look for that. :P

Itssoeasy

Asuka retains the title but zelina vega looked great and I know she has has in ring experience and it showed.

J. Marston

Fighting with a neck brace on is dumb.

Itssoeasy

So bayley bests asuka and then Sasha wears out bayley. At least Sasha was wearing a neck collar so Kayfabe is happening. That’s a plus in the modem era at least.

sky88

Really liked the ambulance match

Drew has been a very good champion all things considered

sky88

That was amazing exactly the match it needed to be

JP Liz V1

Usos have got chief Reigns over as the top WWE heel

Lord TSC

I cannot think of a match I loved more than Reigns vs Uso in the last ten years.

They didn’t do what they sometimes do, where they throw in a twist because everyone knew was was coming. They just told an awesome story with a brilliant piece of character development,

Turning the microphones up so we could hear them was brilliant. Having Jimmy come out, and call Reigns the chief. Heyman placing the lei on him at the end. Heymans pure fear of Reigns is incredible too, and Heyman deserves a lot of credit for his character work too.

It was perfect.

I nearly expected them to oversell it and have Reigns say something like “ call me the chief, Dwayne”, in a Freudian slip moment. But they let the subtlety of it lay the groundwork for the future too.

Just loved that ending.

I actually thought the ambulance match was massively over booked. Orton was attacked by 3 guys and still drew barely won. It was almost like the odds were stacked against orton and he was the face.

The White Wolf

Delighted with both the Orton/McIntyre result and also of course the brilliance of Jey/Roman.

Will be interesting to see who steps up to Drew now assuming Orton feud is over.

TimesArrow

Loved that Main Event. Great storytelling

Ladder match was class too. Some unique spots we haven’t seen before

I like the aspect of the legends coming back to get their revenge on orton but now more time to think I they should have ended the match with them coming out but still really enjoyed it

Agent Coulson

Jey deserves huge credit for his work and talking for making Roman look like a million dollars.

I'm not sure it works with any other wrestler the family storyline works perfectly.

No chest protector either.

Reigns as heel is smashing, who'd have thunk it?

CastorTroy

I know they have to call what the viewers at home see but sometimes it makes the commentators look stupid. Big show grabs Orton's ankle right in front of them but since we only see the hand they have to question who it is.
Then we're expected to believe Orton didn't notice someone setting up and climbing a ladder beside the ambulance? Especially since in WWE we all know how long it takes to climb a ladder.

The IC title match had a unique ending anyway. And still IC champion, Sami Zayn.

The main event was really well done. Not sure where it goes from here.

As for the ad for the draft, I was thinking why are they advertising it so far out, then realised it's only Friday week.

PTH2009

Love this roman reigns and hope they keep him heel for a long time

The ambulance match was a bit crazy as was the IC title match

Completely agree on both accounts.

They should have had Orton defeated in the ambulance, match is over then Orton gets out of the ambulance goes to attack Drew from behind, blocked by Christian, right into a KO Punch from Show and a Sweet Chin Music from HBK.

Orton gets his comeuppance and McIntyre still looks strong.

Given they closed off all of Orton's storylines I'd wager he's moving in the draft.

JP Liz V1

Great having Christian back
