    Probably one of the few times where it's not a compliment to say he doesn't look as heavy as he did with Heavy Machinery

    Interesting that Riddle and Seth are now on opposite teams for SS and Rollins seems to have genuine animosity towards Riddle and said in a recent interview he has no desire to work with him ever

    Is Lana through the table weekly a face push for her, leading to her winning for Raw at SS and a title reign down the line

    I'd say they could do something like have Lana be the reason Nia gets eliminated

    That what Meltzer is reporting that Bruce Prichard thinks putting Lana through a table every week will have the WWE Universe feel sorry for her and turn her into a Mega Babyface.

    Lana gets the win with a crappy roll up I expect. She'll stay in it because the rest won't tag her in.

    Then Jax puts her through the table taking her out of the match then she gets up at the last min when SD think they have won and get a roll up?

    Ali just looks dodgy in his new role, like one of the lads you could you prowling nightclubs on a Saturday night

    It has potential to lead to a nice Mania moment of Lana putting Jax through a table perhaps.

    I can see Lana indirectly or directly costing Jax the SS match, her tag titles and eliminating her from the Rumble, though paying for it by going through a table each time.

    Will it work.... god knows, probably not.

    Have the WWE currently any top face female over near as much as Becky was?

    I like Lana and I know she's trying her best, but jaysus her whole in ring performance is still brutal. While I'd love to see Jax jobbing to her the idea of them sharing a ring scares me tbh. Jax can barely keep her sh1t together against accomplished performers never mind someone who struggles like Lana does.

    Lana has all the athletic attributes she is a world class dancer so she is well able to have the muscle memory to lean moves and choreograph a match.

    Maybe she needs to go the Macho Man way and work whole matches over and over move for move with her opponent before going live with them.

    Then again how many wrestlers do that these days.

    No-one even a fraction close.

    "The Man" run was lightning in a bottle. When WWE blatantly push someone to the moon, there is usually a little or a lot of fan pushback but the fans were fully onboard with that push.

    She went over in promo segments with Edge and Cena, had a promo with The Rock, won the Rumble, won the main event of Mania, held two titles, held one for a year and got cheered all the way.

    And also gave Austin a stunner!

    Going by SD it does look like they are going with Reigns vs Drew but this is WWE an **** knows what they will do

    Orton vs Reigns has had no build up whatsoever

    Really seems like Survivor Series in general has had a terrible build. It's mostly just infighting between all the teams. The rosters have barely interacted or even mentioned each other in some case. Have zero hype for SS this year.

    Raw seems so bland nowadays, I never watch wwe anymore but still check out results etc but can't remember a time it's ever been this bad..

    Retribution could have been interesting but its literally job squad 2.0.

    Anyone that shone in NXT more often or not get buried

    I don't know is it writing or vinces stubbornness but when was the last WTF moment like punk quitting with the title, stone cold getting, run over, nexus etc

    It's a storyline fine, I'm sure, for laying hands on Adam Pearce last week.

    Hardly.. this is some Kayfabe ****e.. needless to say I’m a complete slave to this; they could do absolutely anything and I’ll still watch

    It is a kayfabe fine for putting is hands on Adam Pearce.

    Imagine he actually did pull his lad out again or sh1t in a female talent handbag again and only got a fine in the same week they sacked a female talent for having a social media account they could not control.


    That would be Vince and the WWE to a tee.

    Listening to that Taker promo it really shows how much better commentators and colour men were back then to the bland corporate ones today.
