Going to be strange watching a chamber match where the only marks we can see will be on the face since the women have to be covered. No marks on the back from the chains or anything like that.

Hasn't the chamber been made to look a lot more safe in recent years especially with the steel grates on the outside are fully padded.

Very friendly starting times for us this time round

4pm- Pre show

5pm-8pm- Main show

I wonder how many of the saudi lgbt community and migrant workers or anyone who disagrees with the evil murderous genocidal saudi regime are locked in real elimination chambers at this moment in time but then again how many wrestling fans really care about that when they can watch their favorite wwe superstars.

ThePott

Nice of you to come down off your high horse to speak to us.

You couldn't even point Yemen out on a map.

ThePott

Nobody is standing up for KSA here, their human rights track record is horrifying and they are a horrible regime.

People watching this or not won't make any difference, WWE get paid either way and it's a long-term deal, as reprehensible as that is.

Let's not act though like ye are posting due to some moral outrage, this is the usual point-scoring and tribalism, at least be sincere about it.

J. Marston

This is it.

Moan about the shows taking place, fair enough but preaching about Yemen with hashtags is the most transparent insincere shíte. You couldn't give a flying fúck about Yemen.

Anyway, the people moaning will still watch it and moan about the show after "seeing the results on twitter".

So will he show up ?

PTH2009

Christ Goldberg is winning isn't he

Brilliant match and storytelling

Reigns is keeping the title surely

PTH2009

Thank god for that

Tbf is wasn't a bad match

Necro

Oldberg getting choked out clean is definitely the way to go. With them already advertising Lesnar and Reigns for Mania it was a foregone conclusion anyways but hey gotta earn them Saudi bucks I guess 😁

hynesie08

At least the women don't have to wear those ridiculous t-shirts.

J. Marston

Oddly enough, Rhea is head to toe latex is more suggestive than what she usually wears!

Or maybe I just have a warped mind.

Edit: Same goes for Liv aka Britney.

Necro

The latex outfits are actually better for Doudrop, Rhea and Liv tbh! Bianca normally wears stuff like that anyways so not much change.

hynesie08

Liv Morgan cosplaying as toxic era Britney........ Ok.

ThePott

The women's gear for the Saudi shows has definitely gotten better, far more character specific than before. Liv's looks like the Britney, Oops I did It Again look. Ripley's look has suffered the least from the gear.

Also the last thing I'm going to say about Saudi stuff is that there's no such thing as ethical consumption anymore it's not possible when capitalism is the goal. Not that I think these arguments are being made for any moral reason anyway.

hynesie08

There was 0 advantage to that being a chamber match.

J. Marston

Bianca is a fúcking dose. Every win she seems on the verge of tears.

Necro

That was ok fare. Predictable ending so really they should have just given Rhea the W over Bianca in the gauntlet to cast some element of doubt imo. I'm fine with a Becky/Bianca match at Mania.

nazmoalex

That chamber match was fairly forgettable, only one half decent spot where Bianca slammed Bliss off the cage, but then she just did feck all only help her back into the ring. Looking forward to the men's one, hopefully it's better!

JP Liz V1

I'd prefer Rhea winning

It's very predictable so far

TimesArrow

The state of McIntyre. They’ve killed any charisma he had. He peaked for 1/2 peaks before rumble 20. He’s a star and they make him wear a kilt and wave a sword. Embarrassing and pathetic

Necro

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118659895#Comment_118659895

The thing about the Saudi shows are they're essentially glorified house shows, with the odd legend tossed in. The only significant thing that happened in Saudi was Goldberg beating The Fiend. And that was a terrible call!

Necro

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118659904#Comment_118659904

Didn't he always have the kilt? He is Scottish tbf. The sword is stupid I'll give you that. I still hold out a semblance of hope they're going to have him be the guy to dethrone Roman but I'm probably very wrong :/

TimesArrow

There was a time ( briefly) when his nationality wasn’t fundamental to his wrestling gimmick. But they’ve magnified it. They always do it, same with Seamus and Rusev. Imo, they simply cannot book baby faces. Free has all the fundamental, including charisma and Personality, but like every good guy, he comes across as a knob on tv

orecir

Madcap Moss an underrated talent

happyoutscan

Claymore while wielding the sword.

Naff isn't the word for it.

TimesArrow

dom mysterio couldn’t be more of a hapless jobber if he tried

Necro

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118659930#Comment_118659930

I agree on that. They haven't a bloody clue how to book babyfaces long term.

PTH2009

Cody to be Mizs Partner ?

orecir

Such welcoming people interacting with the wwe superstars

TimesArrow

How underwhelming would this be

TimesArrow

Sorry but this version of Becky is possibly the most cringe worthy thing on wwe

TimesArrow

How underwhelming would this be. From being a huge deal in AEW to appearing as miz partner In a pointless mid card tag match. Surely not?

Necro

Nah. Cody comes in to face Big Bob for the WWE Title if he debuts imo. Miz's partner will probably be Veer or someone like that

B.A._Baracus

Becky carrying Lita there. But seriously, the 'rana Lita does always looked weird.... like unsafe somehow. As if she's gonna plant herself on her head.

ThePott

I think Lita has been decent so far but what was that "sleeper"?

Why are people talking about Miz's partner, was that not on the pre-show?

Necro

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118660022#Comment_118660022

He had some sort of promo where it was hinted at a Mania match with Rey and Dom.

B.A._Baracus

Lot of talking between becky and lita. That's gonna make botchmania at least haha.

Necro

So pointless. That nonsense with the Usos would have been better on the preshow, as a precursor to the main event it makes no sense.

Necro

Any chance they lost Theory at baggage collection and Cody takes his spot in the chamber.... 🤣

B.A._Baracus

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/118660113#Comment_118660113

It's just a cool down. You had becky and lita, then the taker promo, so it was either going to be a pointless cooldown match or the segment we got.

May seem silly but it serves its purpose at least.

ThePott

How many times have they said "playing with house money" tonight, seems like at least 3.

Is that a new edict?

Necro

Lashley "injured" - a switcharoo with a certain free agent mid match perhaps?
