Jaysus, I almost want Russo back. My morbid curiosity wants to know how he'd squander Ronda.

Kilt/Skirt on a pole match

No more Shield reunions. The last few haven't exactly matched their original run.

T-shirts to be sold of course there will be a Shield reunion.



As there will be at least two more DX reunions.

DX, they just need to go away PERIOD.

Sure then they would just have Steph slap him in the face and that would be it. Though Ellsworth was kinda like that with all but Carmella

I was thinking along the lines of somebody who would be seen as clearly physically superior, to the point the women wouldn't want to take them on in a fight.
You got me on Stephanie though, in fairness when I think about stuff that might be cool or could work well she doesn't really cross my mind. Haha!

Just some random guy getting fed up, much like Seth's promo on Raw.. except blame the women for stealing valuable air time etc.. Just see it being universally hated by everybody, in the good kinda way. But yeah sure wwe, they'd probably balls it up

In WWE, I’d see it playing out like Kevin Nash with the X Division: it’d get the man over but would cut too deep, too quickly and ultimately hurt the division.

Don't know much about that angle, I haven't really watched much tna, but I think I get what you're saying. It would play out badly if the women were buried.
In my halfwit idea, there'd be no physicality between the men and women, just somebody using it as a means to get heat to springboard a push on the mens roster.
The mixed tag challenge aside, there's hardly ever much interaction between the different sexes on each show.
I think overall integrating women and men into storylines together, like the mixed tag challenge to an extent, will go a long way to making people see the women's division as being just part of the show. As opposed to the way they are promoting it now as this sparkly new toy they just found out existed.
And if heels are suppose to be pricks, why not to the opposite sex too. It just all makes sense to me.

Anyway glad I posted the random thought, will try to contribute a bit more I'm always reading posts regularly.

The Becky Lynch Chronicle on the network makes you love her even more. It's easy to see why the fans are behind her when you see her talking. She's clearly a nice person.

Do the International commentary teams introduce Cole and Graves to there audiences when the do a tour of the commentary teams on PVV’s?


If not what’s the point of them being introduced to us on the English language version.

Lads is Raw not on Sky this week for some reason? I can't find it on the planner at all...

Consider yourself lucky, that's Sky's Xmas present to you.

The ratings went up by 400,000 for Raw, a 3 month high. So there must be something in it.

Yeah like it or not when it comes to WWE, the McMahon’s are the main characters.

Probably cause they are made to look like someone unique, stars. Stephanie doing her Mother Hen thing the other night while all the women got in line and accepted her judgement with glee. Becky the rebellious, hottest act in the company and Charlotte didn't talk back to Vince they just stood there accepted his call for Naomi and sat at ringside to watch.
When talent are made to look like regular interchangeable employees no different from the fans themselves it doesn't help them stand out. Add in the company's dreadful handling of basically anyone but Rousey it's not a surprise house shows & ratings suck. Smackdown was up this week but about half as much as Raw although I have other suspicions of there dropped ratings tbh.

I think Nakamura is a big main roster bust, maybe the biggest considering the hype for him.

Like a lot of guys he's settled down and this run has basically been an earner to him, working a far less demanding style and getting well paid for it. I view him much the same as Balor in the sense their best may be behind them as they are both closer to 40 than 30 although I feel Finn tries harder. Comparing Shinsuke's year to how refreshed Tanahashi as a character got in 2018 is utterly embarrassing, that's not even going into their in-ring performances.
A lot of lads in WWE have their feet up for years and aren't looking for more than what they have a cushy gig, a usually unmemorable year and in some cases being paid to be there rather than elsewhere. I think that's why WWE put the rocket on Lynch she clearly wanted it while others mope about and do nothing about their position. The NXT roster I get the feeling most aren't in a rush about going to the main roster and really if you struggle with that challenge are you ever going to be "The Guy". Austin, Foley, Rock, HHH and others joined in the mid 90's where the creative was out of touch and equally horrible but they still backed themselves to be a success and I get the feeling most are happy being "worker ants" as I seen it being put lately.
