Sami and Kevin referenced the wild card rule on both shows.

Oh I heard that but commentary the official mouthpiece are saying nothing anymore which is interesting. Pretty sure the count was way off these shows anyway.

Smackdown and raw moving to btsports in January ðŸ€¬ðŸ€¬

My opinion on that is covered in my post; Bliss seems to be allowed to cut promos without the shackles on while Bayley seems to be desperately sticking to the script.

I'd absolutely believe Bliss would be allowed to go out there and take a few liberties with her promos simply because she's so good at them. Bayley, already not the best at talking, is obviously going to struggle responding to that.

My point is if they're genuinely interested in pushing Bayley, and maybe even helping her improve her promos, then why on Earth are they putting her against Bliss as her first proper feud as champ? Especially when on the same brand they're giving Kofi, similarly limited promo wise, the gentle curve ball of Dolph ****ing Ziggler?

Same thing as always, the purported heel is allowed to express themselves and be 'cool' whilst the babyface has to be vanilla and smiley.

It's why WWE is so samey these days, the faces are just dull, bland vanilla clones who blend together.

Don't worry.

Bayley will get to do a "you people" heel turn promo at some point because that's what literally every single WWE person gets to do.

Remember when they tried that with Becky after she attacked Charlotte?

"Yeah you're cheering me now but were you people really with me in the past?"

Crowd does "Yes!" chant

The Miz is a Raw superstar fueding with Shane on Smackdown.
Roman is a Smackdown superstar feuding with Shane on Raw.
Neither appear on the brand they are supposedly part of.

The instant regret they had drafting Roman to Smackdown is pretty hilarious....

You can just see Vince blaming the empty arenas and poor Ppv buys on Roman being away from Raw

Oh Vince

The Wildcard Rule is absolutely killing any interest I have in WWE. Especially Smackdown.

It's just the same match-ups constantly and the same talent every night. The brands make no difference, people on one brand are going after the title on the other brand. What's the point of that.
Bliss and Bayley at Extreme Rules again cause that went so well last time.

CastorTroy · 26-06-2019 12:47PM

So we technically had New Day vs Daniel Bryan/Rowan twice - once in 2 on2 then again in 4 on 4
We had Elias vs Miz three times
We had Kofi vs Dolph 3 times, which is already at least 5 times too many.
All in one night.

So how long until they go all in with the Sonya/Mandy relationship?

Yeah the wildcard rule is just leading to more ramshackle see-what-fits-in-that-given-week type of ****e. It's even harder now to get invested.

Did I read that right....two 2/3 pinfall matches. **** me it is actually true.

CastorTroy · 26-06-2019 06:00PM

Yeah, 2 2/3 falls matches.

Oh and we had a rare Shinsuke appearance

ERG89 · 26-06-2019 06:23PM

I've probably said it before but why is Rowan with Bryan & not eating pins. I know Bryan is a generous guy but Rowan will never amount to anything significant.

J. Marston · 26-06-2019 06:31PM

Rowan is the dullest "monster" I've ever seen.

Big lad who wears death metal band t-shirts. Wow.

After repeatedly calling him the biggest acquisition is SD history.

Vince McMahon is a genius.

Rock Lesnar · 03-07-2019 12:00AM

I dont expect much change, just read Bischoff apparantly not taking over until after extreme rules, vince still in charge

grames_bond · 03-07-2019 12:56PM

There was a middle finger - that's edgy!

J. Marston · 03-07-2019 01:25PM

KO eviscerating Ziggler on the mic gave me a big smile.

PTH2009 · 03-07-2019 01:44PM

What was that Shelton Benjamin thing? Is he the guy knocking on Alister Blacks door ???

Is KO face again ??

i think so even though the turn was sudden and out of nowhere im happy as he needs it in my opinion and got sidetracked from Kofi run

There will be no follow up on the Shelton thing and KO will be a heel again next week with no explanation.

Until he's legit dead & buried 6 feet under Vince will be in control. On PPV's, Smackdown & Raw(including this weeks show). Good or bad he's in charge.
