>I think [Reigns] is one of the better talents they’ve got. He looks credible, he looks good, [he’s] a good interview. And if we’re gonna compare him to anybody, let’s just compare him to the last guy you said, the fat guy in the T-shirt, Kevin Owens. There’s no comparison. I think he’s light years ahead of that guy. I see people like Kevin Owens and this Yakamora guy, and these other people like this. When I see that, I’m going, ‘Business has gotta be bad, or they’re at a point where they don’t care.’ That’s all I know.

>>Low Ki is reportedly gone from Global Force Wrestling, after asking for his release from the company during this week's set of tapings. While there are a few different versions of the account, the similarities were that he did ask for his release and it was said to be an "amicable" split between the two parties.

One version stated that it was a financial issue that led to his leaving, while another said it was over his creative direction. Reportedly, Low Ki was expecting to work in the GFW Championship scene, but the direction given to him was headed towards the X Division, where he would be in a championship match at GFW Bound for Glory.
Last week, Low Ki was slated to take on Alberto El Patron at the live Destination X for the GFW Championship, but Patron was stripped of the title, which effectively cancelled their match. http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/2017/0823/630492/gfw-star-in-the-main-event-picture-already-gone-from-the-company/

With the huge success of the G1 Climax should WWE bring back the KOTR tournament?
Last few tournaments from the WWE were pretty good; Tournament to crown new champ after Rollins got injured; Tournament to decide who faces Rollins at Summerslam for Universal Title.
If they bring it back who should win it?

>>PWInsider reports that following a number of incidents involving beach balls at Summerslam and Raw this week, WWE has now banned beach balls and pool-related objects at last night’s edition of Smackdown. The edict came from WWE to all security and staff at the Barclays Center.

The staff was reportedly informed that beach balls, pool noodles, or other inflatable items that could be bounced around were banned from the event. There were reportedly moments where fans tried to bounce around beach balls during the broadcast, but they were then quickly taken by security and removed from the arena. It has not been confirmed if the ban is permanent going forward, but one would imagine that will likely be the case. https://411mania.com/wrestling/wwe-beach-balls-smackdown/

>God... I don't really know what to say but it's a hell of a damn match for the most part but some things rub me the wrong way about it.
>What's the fat dude called? Samoa John? (Co-host corrects him) Samoa Joe, yeah. That guy's a hell of a worker and they don't let him do anything. It's bizarre. Reminds me a bit about how Vince used to tell me to tone my work down, fucking pointless.
>The big dude, Braun Strowman - this guy's an animal but he lacks psychology, not much else to say.
>Roman? Roman is Roman. Never really been a big fan in terms of ring work because I don't see him do anything special. Stop punching dudes (Co-host does OOOOAAAAAAA) Yeah, what the fuck is that shit. Do something special. At least Feed Me More took some thought.
>Brock is a monster, I still chat to him every so often. Remember that Wrestlemania match ("You mean the Ryback vs Lesnar match?") Yeah, he was really into it. We were doing this fantasy booking shit once haha, I love Brock.
>The thing is, I knew about this match beforehand because I heard from some of the old writers that Vince was going to offer me a deal and get me in there instead of Joe. I think they wanted me and Brock to run a program but no matter what money was on the table, I'd have said no. Vince probably knew that and went back because it's been a bit of a stand off with me and him.
>We both know the money we're leaving on the table if I'm not back at WWE but it's pride now ("Yeah, no-one wants to back down") Right, it's pride. I'm sure I'll get back there eventually and we'll cut a deal but right now I'm doing better than I ever did in the midcard at the E.

>Hey thanks for letting me have this Wrestlemania moment and having the belt instead of you brother. I promise I'll repay the favor by dropping it to you at King of the Ring. It'll be awesome, man, the rub will put you over so you'll be even more over than ever before. It'll make you the real deal to win the championship from Hol Kogan, brother. Believe me brother, as much as I can't wait for this capacity Ceasar's Palace crowd here in Las Vegas Nevada to go wild for the return of Hulkamania, I'm looking even more forward to doing the honors for you later on. Believe me, tonight Bret The Hitman Hart and Hol Kogan are about to put on the greatest Wrestlemania of all time, dude. Can you feel it, brother?

>the only call ups post Summerslam were Bobby Roode and a returning Shelton Benjamin

Anyone else kind of disappointed in this? Even more so considering they actually teased quite a few people wanting to be called up, and now it's just kind a flat line. The only roster changes are Cena is on RAW and Enzo is part of the manlet division.
