    Btw I like both drew and Randy so either way I’m happy whoever won but I’m happy that Randy orton is now a 14 time worlds heavyweight champion and hopefully he equals cena and flair.

    This may not be a universal sentiment but I think Randy orton will when it’s all said and done, be seen as one of the all time greats and certainly of his generation. His only draw back is unlike cena he wasn’t perfect and says what’s on his mind and didn’t play the corporate suck up game cena seemed to perfect like cm punk said even if that was a worked promo.

    This was rough.

    About half way through Reigns/Uso I was enjoying it, too many monologues in between spots but the work was pretty good. But as the match went on, the speeches got longer, the dialogue more cartoony and the action less and less. By the time Roman shouts "the head of the table doesn't quit!" you already know we are firmly in wrestlecrap territory. It wasn't wrestling, it wasn't a movie, it wasn't a play. I don't know what it was, I just know it was bad. *

    Elias / Hardy and Miz/ Otis both **. How do they employ so many wrestlers but still have Hardy/Miz wrestling singles on ppv and comedy guys like Otis and Elias always on a main ppv card?

    Bayley/Sasha, motm. But again, disappointing. Silly, overly intricate WWE weapon tropes to the extreme culminating in the hilarious Bayley vs masking tape & 2 kendo sticks battle where they just had to abandon the spot. They worked hard, Sasha bumped like a pinball. They were ambitious like always and in between the weapon spots there was some really good work. The finish though felt flat and came out of nowhere. ***1/2

    Lashley/Slapjack, Retribution like Raw Underground very much another abandoned idea left to flounder. *

    Orton/McIntyre, called it after Drew won it at Mania, got some angry responses but time has proven me right. Disappointing title reign that started poorly, went nowhere and ended by being pinned by Randy Orton clean. Drew was never the guy to be a transcendent, money drawing star anyway but he never really even got a fair shake at it due to circumstances and booking. ***

    Otis is like an exaggerated Big E so was surprised they had them both on the same show.
    I don't see Miz cashing in successfully.

    I saw an idea on Twitter I liked miz cashed in on Finn and have him on nxt as a total opposite of what is nxt usually

    If I was McIntyre I would be pissed they missed my table landing spot with their bad angles and cuts

    Miz doing promos against NXT wrestlers would be man against boys.

    I'd love to see him tear down Finn.

    Actually a great idea. Would be great watching him old school snivelling heel it up against some spot monkeys.

    But I think they clearly specified that mitb is for universal or wwe only. Ah well.

    It’s hard to see who he can cash in on now tho. Reigns isn’t dropping the title anytime soon and the whole point of orton winning is to build towards an orton edge mania match.

    Might be the 1st time anyone has ever referred to Fergal Devitt as a spot monkey.

    Well more that's how the miz would set himself up: The professional wrestler vs the gymnast.

    Nearly impossible to do now. NXT firmly established as a 3rd WWE brand with no differing style. Let alone the fact that the champion was also World Champion on Raw and is the polar opposite of a gymnast.

    Will be interesting to see if NXT is involved in Survivor Series this year in the same capacity as before, since as I pointed out before they have neglected them in recent weeks.
    I guess the build to SS starts this week or next week where everyone will band together. Will Retribution suddenly be loyal to Raw?

    They had blue/red and yellow on the Survivor Series graphic again but may have just used the graphic from last year.

    Brand loyalty even though some are only part of it for a few weeks
