    Think Sheamus will be the new "House Show Hero".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,270 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    Think he may need a heel turn tbh. I'd turn him and have feud with Bryan for a bit. Who else is their after this?

    Not sure Trips will want to work to much more after Extreme rules until summerslam, he may feel that if he does he would lose his drawing power as he should be a special attraction these days. orton v Bryan has been done a million times and supposedly Batista is on his bike.

    Not sure if Cesaro is meant to be heel or face, and don't think Wade is ready.

    Bad Sheamus would be great in a feud with Bryan. Have him selected by Triple H as it was him that beat Bryan in 18 seconds.

    If he actually beat Bryan clean before losing the title to him, perhaps in a ladder match it would get him some credibility to go onto other feuds with someone like Reigns, Cesaro or even Cena again

    Dish Network (along with DirectTV) has declined to carry Extreme Rules

    What about Renee Young in the social media lounge?

    If this weekend wasn't a Bank Holiday I probably wouldn't stay up it for it possibly might not in any case.

    It is rare enough alright. I always reference/remember that Wrestlemania 18 happened on St. Paddy's Day/Bank Holiday Monday morning:

    The best of times.

    Very disappointed, thought we might get Heyman Vs Colter

    would be Lawler vs Cole MK2! Train wreck television.

    and THEN you would have people online complaining they were taking spots off more deserving people (which they would be)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,556 ✭✭✭Blue_Dabadee


    I'm actually looking forward to see this WeeLC match. It is going to be soo bad that is actually good.

    Very true. So many have beaten Kane at this stage in his career, he has about as much threat as a puppy. Undertaker he ain’t. He is about five million miles away from the unstoppable 98 monster they are trying to recreate. Hunter doing a “Sic him” is great but if the dog he sends is Kane nobody will care. Henry, Big Sheam, Brock or even Rusev.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    Eh, he's just someone for DB to beat until they decide to bring Brock back imo.

    It is what it is. At least they've made the effort to make Kane look a threat.

    Look at some throwaway title matches in the past. Cena vs R-Truth. Nuff said.

    I'd really like to see a heel Sheamus take on DB though. I loved their match at ER in 2012.

    Looks like Flair is going to cost The Shield at the PPV based on what happened on Raw.

    Oh God, please no. I hope that was his first and last involvement in the feud last night.

    Hair Vs. Moustache match, if Heyman wins bye bye Zeb's tache and if Zeb wins Heyman shaved bald :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,096 ✭✭✭✭the groutch


    I think Vince Russo has hijacked Liz's account.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,100 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Not like it was suggested that Cesaro/Swagger be a flag on a pole match.

    Or something even more gimmicky like a WeeLC match

    The arena advertising has Daniel Bryan vs Kane as the main event.

    Do you think it will actual go on last and main event?

    How much stock you put into the idea Bryan has to headline as it will set the tone of his Championship reign? Determining whether is "the guy" or if he is a Chris Benoit style "1st hour of Raw" Champion.

    Can Kane and Bryan deliver a match worthy of Pay Per View *cough* sorry WWE Network special event? Over say Roman Reigns pinning Triple H or Batista.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭Machismo Fan


    vs. most other guys Bryan should close but him vs. Kane with a big attraction like Shield/Evolution aswell, I'd end with the six man.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ape Lincoln


    Shield trouncing Evolution is the main event regardless of what kind of match Bryan can drag out of the Big Red Slug. They need to make these monthly supercards a strong selling point of the network. Doesn't appear to be a priority however....

    The Benoit comparison is unfair. If Bryan isn't booked as the main event champion, then his reign will be akin to CM Punk's ie. only working the main event with Cena, Lesnar and I guess Triple H. They've not really gotten behind a new main event champion since the era of the Cena/Batista/Orton push.

    That would actually be a really cool stipulation for a Cesaro vs Swagger match. They need to make a lot more of Zeb vs Heyman! :D

    Anyone know why RVD was added to that match; am I missing something? Just seems a little odd to have a triple threat match that is not for a title. Cesaro vs Swagger with Zeb vs Heyman going on in storyline is enough for a really good feud, RVD seems a bit out of place.
    I think Vince Russo has hijacked Liz's account.

    To be fair hair vs hair is an old school pro wresting storyline. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,949 ✭✭✭A Primal Nut


    Paddy Power have Evolution as hot favourites - there is no really reason for them to do that unless they or people betting know something. I really think Ambrose is going to turn on his friends. Might be the last PPV we see the Shield together.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Moneymaker


    I think having someone on the Shield turn right now would be a mistake.

    You could have someone else debut and cost them the match, but we all want to see both teams beat the crap out of each other. Having someone turn right now would be illogical and bad imo.

    You can always build towards a big turn down the line but right now keep them together, they have so much momentum right now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,949 ✭✭✭A Primal Nut


    Could also be that Evolution win this one and The Shield win a rematch at Payback (makes sense given the name of the PPV!).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    Triple H smacks someone with a shovel, leading to a gimmicky rematch. Problem solved :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,860 ✭✭✭Ape Lincoln


    Smackdown aired a promo saying Bryan vs Kane, Wyatt vs Cena and Shield vs Evo was a 'triple main event'. It's been a good while since they said that I think.

    Sheamus is on the pre-show panel with Josh, Reilly and Booker. Can you say 'creative has nothing for you'!
