    I assuming the Fiend/Alexa bit was just meant as a performance (or whatever word I'm looking for) by Bray rather than Alexa really being there.

    As for that ending, running people off isn't exactly an ideal start. I don't think I recognised the one woman they beat up.
    If it hadn't been for having to do the Mandy/Sonya bit, having the new group beat down Heavy Machinery and M&M would've been better.
    At least Nexus made a statement with their debut, to the point of one member getting fired.
    There was no sign of them on NXT, though that's probably because NXT seems to have some idea of how to fill a show.

    Why didn't Kayla report on the box Otis knocked over?

    So Naomi to win the Battle Royal?

    That was an excellent Smackdown. Stuff happening, story progression and a very good ending. The only problem is WWE do this here and there and then go back to crap the next week. Hopefully they keep it going.

    I think I could watch Sheamus wrestle non stop. He always has great matches as he looks like a tough guy as well. The Fiend, sonya etc sall did their bit to make it a good night. Stuff happening is the main thing!

    Loved the ending with Retribution wrecking the place. I liked that they were all covered and not huge. We have people online analysing video images even! Like for example if its Brawn in a mask we know who it is. They can always reveal later who is in charge and keeps us guessing. I loved them going after the cameramen as well. No one was safe!

    Hopefully they keep building it now

    Is Michael cole this stupid or does vince think we are that stupid. Mandy rose now has short hair and listening to Mitchell cole you'd swear it was a challenge to work out who it is.

    It could've been that other blonde who had a reason to attack Sonya. :)

    And I used to like mitchell cole (TM the rock) because when he and Tazz were doing Smackdown in the mid 2000's they had heyman working with them and even in 2011 of which I've been doing a rewatch of (2011 raw looks ecw gritty compared to now btw) but it's bad enough WWE play music when doing a run in but michael cole loses his memory as to who it is.

    I think were getting an attack on the Mcmahons by Retribution and were all to forget about how similar they are too Nexes and the type of things they done when they started out


  • Registered Users Posts: 37,903 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009

    how are going to sneak into arena when they move to the Amway Arena ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,855 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Sure they tipped over the commentary desk last week. How could they top that?


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,115 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Odds on riot police?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,793 ✭✭✭Sirsok


    Id say these retribution lads are just fodder and lures. So when they get some attention off serious competition , lights go out and the real 5 or so will attack.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,065 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Lads they're going all out this week with Retribution, according to leaks:

    They're going to leave the cap off the toothpaste.
    Leave breadcrumbs in the butter.
    Worst of all - This week, they leave their respective houses and LEAVE THE IMMERSIONS ON!

    Everything changes after tonight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,855 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Whatever about the other things, they don't seem brave enough to leave the immersion on.

  • Registered Users Posts: 37,903 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009

    The Fiend and Retribution have the same type of blackout thing going on

  • Registered Users Posts: 60,364 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    A slow build with AJ that leads to Abyss against Wyatt I could get behind that.

    If Nexus and Aces and Eights had babies they’d be retribution.

    Speaking of TNA lite. Aj, Jeff hardy and Abyss all in a segment together. WWE has gone full TNA. The slightest bit of pressure from AEW and it looks like they’re crumbling.
