    You would have to wonder if Jinder was told by someone to go stiff on this guy and lets see what he is made of.


    Now Finn I'm sure would be used to stiff from his time on Japan but still he may not have been expecting it here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,945 ✭✭✭Monokne


    Why would they arbitrarily decide Jinder Mahal should stiff Finn Balor on a random episode of Raw? He worked more than a hundred matches over 2 years on NXT and he's worked 20+ matches on the main roster.

    Id doubt it, it looked accidental. Id like to think Finn is already proven in relation to his toughness. Sure the man is already in a top position on the main roster and he worked a match great match with a badly injured shoulder. His toughness in beyond question based on that alone

    Ye you are probably right.

    Then you would have to wonder as you said what Vince was think when it put them in a match together considering the size difference.

    There isn't much of a size difference in Mahal & a lot of the roster tho. I do remember Jinder nearly taking Reigns head off with a dropkick (iirc) a few weeks ago.

    Jinder just has the new body :pac: which makes him look more of a giant.


    I bet Vince would love to to have Reigns head on Jinder's body so Roman could stop wearing that bloody chest protector.

    Jinder looks like he took a serious elbow since based on a gif I just saw.

    Hinted at strongly last night on Talking Smack, but official now. Renee Young and Dean Ambrose have tied the knot.

    The ring on Ambrose on Raw was a dead giveaway.

    Both seem very happy and genuine, with both seemingly very down to earth. I hope the different travel schedules don't hinder their marriage


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Get married and move them to different brands seems about right for wwe.

    although renee doesn't travel as much as the wrestlers so it matter's a little less than if this was one of the other couples.

    Damn you Ambrose!

    Renee isn't on the road, and she's probably backstage at Raw anyway so I doubt this makes any difference.

    You may be right. Im only going off Last years draft on Total divas were they appeared upset at the thought of separation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,945 ✭✭✭Monokne


    Total Divas being a 100% shoot of course ;)

    Hopefully it's no big change for them.

    Well its not 100 percent fake either bub :)

    Ah while its got a lot of scripted and forced segments, I imagine their is a small element of realism to some of the show.

    Where is the Raw Talk done, since doesn't she host that?

    No idea, Ive never even watched it once. Lawler is enough to put me off. I can imagine WWE having him call the womens tournament special :)

    The Sun have taken an old Boards theory and ran with it, it seems

    The most inappropriate behavior @BostonLogan TSA is doing to me. I have never felt this violated in my entire life

    What's the deal with Lana? I see her in the divas thread dressed up like a dancer?

    Latest suggestion is that both Rawley and Jinder will be pushed by having a mid card feud.

    Looking forward to it.

    Looking forward to it.

    To be honest I'm ok with anything that makes the Smackdown mid card feel a bit more fleshed out than pre shake up.
