Ewwwwwwww

HERE'S THE THING ROMAN, I EXTENDED MY HAND TO YOU LAST YEAR..
>>913606
My guess is that they'll save his victory party for the last hour and an angry Roman attacks him and as Roman gets beat up the Rock comes out to save him
>>913606
The standard 20 minutes, but it will seem longer thanks to he and Rock jerking each other off verbally and pretending its a love letter to the fans.
>>913607
Shit was brutal so i bet
>>913608
I can't watch it on TV in my assend country
>>913606
Up till the first commercial and then they'll have a "celebration" at the end with ramen attacking him
>>913590
CHICKENS
>>913615
What are the chances the Rock gets booed when he starts mentioning Roman?
What was that triangle phi cheese sign about?
I know you guys hate the commentary team but they put over AJ Styles pretty highly.
>FORMER IWGP CHAMPION JUST LIKE BROCK LESNAR!
-JBL
>THE PHENOMENAL ONE IS HERE!
-Cole
>AN OFFENSIVE INNOVATOR!
-Byron saying something decent for once
>>913637
The commentary was actually pretty decent last night.

I wonder if this will suck
>tfw there will be no happy underdog story for Becky, she's now going to fade to superstar/main event and then disappear from television entirely
>>913641
Probably mostly suck with some gems, like everything WWE related.
>it didn't come down to Haitch, Bray, Dean and Roman
>Bray looks strong like a newly-crowned Top Heel and eliminates Haitch
>SUPERMAN PUNCH
>Roman eliminates Bray
>Dean sneakily eliminates Roman
>becomes genuinely psychopathic Top Heel WWEWHC/IC Dual Champ
>Roman has a rematch for the WWEWHC at WM
>Dean also holds a feud for the IC Title
>Three-way feud with AJ/KO
>defends in a triple threat to Main Event Fast Lane (Main Events over the WWEWHC because that's saved for Mania)
>looks strong as a Top Heel should but Roman interferes and he drops to Styles
>Styles vs KO set for Mania for the IC to tear the house down
>Dean vs Roman for the WWEWHC
>we will never see Heel Dean and Face Roman perform a double turn in the Main Event of Wrestlemania, ending with Roman shaking Vince's hand and fully turning Heel with SHADES OF AUSTIN to the most nuclear heat ever
Does WWE hate pleasing their fans?
>>913641
If you think Chris Jericho is still cool, it'll be awesome.
>yfw Haitch equals Flair before BMJ
>>913646

>>913644

Smh lad baka. It ain't over yet.
How did Kofi get eliminated?
>>913654
Jericho hit him with the triangle dropkick while he was standing on the apron
>>913649
I wouldnt be upset the slightest bit
>>913654
Jeridad threw him out off camera. God the camera work was so shit last night.
>WACKYLINE
As idiotic as this sounded, it wasn't as bad as 2015 when Cole said he knew Rusev was still in the match because, "I WAS LOOKING AT...MY NOTES!"
Is the guy returning confirmed to be THE JABRONI BEATING, PIE EATING, TRAIL BLAZING, BRAHMA BULL?
>>913670
Not confirmed, but assumed.

Bloated Jericho spent more time in the ring than anyone else in the rumble last night, will he go back to Fozzy or stick around until Wrestlemania?
>>913644
All the champions save for Roman and Burrito retained last night, there won't be a change until Wrestlemania
Deanetty will drop the IC belt to AJ Styles
The New Day will drop the tag belts to someone else who aren't the Usos
Kalisto will drop the belt to another face, assuming the US title is in the card
Charlotte will drop the belt to Becky
HHH drops the belt to Roman
Is AJ good on the mic? I can't really recall one of his promo.
>>913673
>"STOP FOCUSING ON THAT INTERLOPER STYLES THE PEOPLE WANT TO SEE JERICHO, HE'S HIP"
>>913648
at least E and C play up the fact that they're old and uncool
unlike JUSTicho
>>913675
He said this run will be a lengthy one
>>913675
He literally came back to run the rumble and then job to somebody. Based JeriGOAT.
Can't believe they went with Ambrose and Haitch as the final 2
What a great rumble
>>913685
It was nothing more than a (failed) attempt to avoid a pop for HHH throwing Roman out. Dean is still midcarder for life.
>Mondays at work after Survivor Series have been shit
>Left work about 3 hours ago, its the best monday I had at work
>Haitch won the belt the day before
Is this a sign guys
>>913679

>>913657
I totally missed that.

I remeber him triangle dropkicking someone, just didnt register who it was.

Goat rivarly.
Did AJ always do his pose with a the Gun hand gesture from Bullet Club before joining Bullet Club?
He did it last night in the Rumble, it's most likely a shoutout but I'm curious.
>>913692
He did it to roman

>>913676
>HHH drops the belt to Roman
I want to believe it's not true and HHH drops it to someone that the people actually want like Ambrose or even Styles, but it probably won't happen.
>>913683
That's good, if HHH can have another world title run at his age then surely Y2J can do the same.
>>913684
God I hope he doesn't end up jobbing, he's better than that.

STOP
THIS IS NOT 2009
>>913670
If he does return, what will they have him do?
Trade shots with Haitch?
He's not going to wrestle at Fast lane so it seems too soon.
Unless they do Roman vs Haitch at Fast Lane and then Rock Vs Haitch at Mania.
I can't think of anyone for Rock to get involved with other than Haitch because muh samoa.
>>913700
Only smarks don't want Roman, see WM22 with him against John Cena
>>913701
Jack Swagger
>>913641
It'll probably blow but I still want to watch it
>>913676
>Deanetty will drop the IC belt to AJ Styles
lolno
He'll take the US from Dorrito if anything, who will get it back from Kalisto because Kalisto has bacne and bacne is not marketable.
>>913701
Eugene.
I haven't kept up with WWE since WM 29 aside from a quick glance at last year's WM main event and like, the last half of the rumble last night. Feel like getting back into the groove, at least until WM this year.
I'm not gonna ask what's been going on since I left, I can just google that shit, but I wanna know if I'll be safe just watching Raw and the PPVs.
>>913712
I'm just assuming AJ Styles sticks around in the active roster and his appearance is not one and done to NXT
>>913708
My pick is that he will just do a 5-10 minute promo, Rock Bottom one of the Social Outcasts and go back to film his movies
>>913637
was expecting
>OOOHHHHHH MMMMMYYYYYYYYY
>WE HEARD THE RUMORS MAGGLE
>THIS GUY WAS BIG ON THE INDIES
>WELCOME TO THE BIG LEAGUES AJ, DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU DID BEFORE
>WHAT DO YOU THINK BYRON?
>AJ STYLES
>>913675
Jericho has Kofi pecs going on these days.
>>913700
>God I hope he doesn't end up jobbing, he's better than that.
I thought he actively wanted to help build new stars.
I mean shit what other wrestler from the 90's is gonna come back just to eat shit to fucking Fandango like he did a few years ago?
>>913708
HHH will rub it in that he beat Roman
Vince and Steph congratulate him
Rocky comes out and puts his cousin over
LON comes out and tries to gang up on Rocky
Roman makes the save
HHH, Steph and Vince retreats and Roman gets put in a match where he has to fend for himself
>>913721
That would be awful after they hyped him up.
When they had him come as a surprise one off with rusev it was fine, but don't advertise something that will lead to nothing.
>>913594
Not Sasha
>>913721
I want him to Rock Bottom AJ Styles.
>>913718
You would be safe just watching the PPVs, even. Almost nothing of consequence ever happens on Raw anymore.
>Owens shouting "WELCOME TO THE WWE" before he eliminated AJ last night
How hard do you wanna bet that that put him over HARD with Vince?
I bet that's the first time he's got hard unassisted by medicine in years, I wouldn't be surprised if they gave him a celebratory live sex segment tonight.
>>913710
18+
Aj Styles is a talentless jobber queer and we're all better than him.
>>913736
admittedly back when I was still watching I mostly only used it as white noise so I knew what was going on in the game threads
>>913637
>IWGP CHAMPION
Was it really ok for the commentary team to say that? I know IWGP doesn't exactly have a company's name on it but it just feels weird for the team to reference another promotion nowadays.
>>913738
But Owens is not a WWE guy
>>913644
Good riddance. The marty janetty of the horsewomen.
>>913733
I think they'll hype him up like styles since he's getting a lot of cash and they bought his name/theme
probably something like
>OHHH MMMMMYYYYY
>ONE OF THE HOTTEST FREE AGENTS IN WWE HISTORY
>A FORMER IWGP CHAMPION
>WE HEARD THE RUMORS
>ONE OF THE MOST FEARED STRIKERS IN ALL OF SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT
>SHINSUKE NAKAMURA HAS ARRIVED
>>913744
>implying spitting in the face of his outlaw life won't make Vince love him all the more
>>913738
Lose weight
>>913743
they mention it since it's one of Brock's accomplishments
>>913743
Anyone but TNA really. I'd say WWE is on good terms with the Japanese wrestling scene
>>913749
Hi Steve.
>>913718
Watch PPVs and don't come here. Its the only way you'll enjoy it.
>>913743
It's the only way they can hype up Styles without mentioning ROH or TNA
They will never mention TNA
>>913748
the first time owens was in a wwe ring, he proudly proclaimed that he had been in this industry longer than cena
>>913743
They mentioned Del Rio being the AAA Champion when he returned.
>>913757
No Anon the first time he was in a WWE ring he beat CJ Parker.
>>913646

I know you're just throwing out bait, but does it have to be this lazy? You couldn't have gone with "The Steve McMichael of the Horsewomen"?
>>913755
They've mentioned TNA a few times over the years.
Most recently, in JBL's interview with Road Dogg, but I think that was more to show how low he was and addicted to drugs at the time.
>>913743
WWE hasn't had any real issues mentioning other promotions for the past couple of years.
They've shadowbanned TNA from existence though and it's great, I'm sure Dixie watches WWE everytime a guy jumps ship hoping for some recognition.
Out of interest do any of you dummies actually go to indie matches?
Not trying to be a smarky, holier that thou cunt, but it seems like very few people here actually talk about watching local live events.
It was so weird to see AJ Styles actually debut as AJ Styles. I guess they just acknowledge that he's too big a name to change.
>>913765
now I need that one owens webm
>>913773
He actually changed from A.J. Styles to AJ Styles apparently
>>913775

Does anyone even care that The Rock is coming back tonight?
His appeal is so far gone at this point.
Who are you hoping AJ Styles will face tonight?

So... Last night I went out and got completely shitfaced with a friend, totally forgetting the Rumble was on...
Did I miss out or was getting just justified?
I heard AJ came in at 3rd but that was really the only surprise until Haitch came in and cucked Roman.
>>913825
Roman will bury them...Nah who am I kidding they'll be back once Seth returns
>>913825
when roman gets over
>>913819
Not going to happen as long as he's a legit movie star. Vince will never give up an opportunity for mainstream exposure, no matter how hacky it is.
>>913771
The local promotion is extremely good at hiding. I keep seeing posters for their stuff like a month afterwards. Closest well-run alternative is eight hours away.
>>913714
I will never understand how that gimmick lasted so long
or why it even got pass
>>913824

And vince hated that fact and wanted to break it up
>>913818
>That sucks. Where are you from?
Honduras.
The only wrestling we got as far as im aware off was Smackdown World tour during Sheamus face Reign.
I still has my ticket, a shame that Orton, Kane and Taker werent there.
The card was:
Booker T vs Cody Rhodes for the IC championship.
Jinder Mahal vs Great Khali.
Some tag match between Hunico and Ted Dibiase Jr.
Sheamus vs Mark Henry Street fight for the WHC.
And Main Event was Big Show vs The GOAT (Bryan).
Highlight was Show beggining a chant by calling Bryan a "pollo" or chicken in english.
Thats why i mark for Big Show.

There's no way they can make Bray look credible enough in time.

>that soulful electric organ chord that opens up the theme
Hype song. I liked his NJPW song ("FUCK YOUR DREAMS FUCK YOUR WIFE") and hated his "GET READY TO FLY" (corny) theme from TNA. This WWE theme is really good though and fits his southern/christian background since it's got a southern gospel sound to it, without being gimmicky.

The last time a local talent signed for WWE was 1989. And as the local promotion doesn't update their website, they must think it's still the 80s.

I thought that was just British crowds. I'm an American and occasionally watch EPL, and they're always coming up with some goofy chant:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wThzwxLDgAI
But yeah, I've seen Progress shows. They can't got 30 seconds without starting some fucking annoying chant.
>>913921
Don't you mean your wife's daughter?
>>913902
Honestly I think that any theme can be good as long as it starts strong.
I mean what's the most memorable thing about Stone Cold's theme? The glass breaking. And personally speaking the static at the start of Cult of Personality always got me more hyped for CM Punk than anything else.
>>913902
>JBL mentions he's a former IWGP Champion
>compares him to Brock fucking Lesnar
Can we all agree how based JBL is? In just two sentences he just hyped the fuck out of this guy that casual WWE fans might not know anything about. Say what you want about his commentary today, but JBL is as based today as he was when he was a world champion kicking out illegal immigrants and punching Godzilla in the face.
Is this guy the only guy left from TNA that WWE would consider signing?
>>913932
If they do I hope they change his name to Bobby Roo
>>913907
>crowds that chant things are bad
Just stay at home then you killjoy cunt
>>913931
He's pretty shit.
What did he mean by this?
>>913931
Actually, JBL came off a moron because the IWGP title AJ held wasn't the same one Lesnar did.
>>913931
He's the only one on the RAW team who knows what he's doing. It's Vince that gets him to repeat the same goofy lines over and over again until we can't ever not instantly think of them the moment we see a wrestler appear, the difference between JBL and Cole is that JBL adds his own stuff sometimes and actually has some insight.
>>913935
>illegal immigrant detected

>>913930
>Honestly I think that any theme can be good as long as it starts strong.

HERE COMES THE MONEYYYY.
Jim Johnston is better than CFO$
>>913931
>compares him to lesnar
because they are both former IWGP champions not comparing them because of anything else.
>>913943
>Flo Rida
Wow how hip and current. This is like when they would have the guest hosts, and it would be someone who was relevant about a decade ago.
>LE GRUMPY CAT
Is gorillafag kill? I havent seen him since Ryback got booed to hell at the rumble.
>>913961
Only after he didn't relinquish it the title he won was the IWGP.
>>913971
He took his own life, unable to handle the crushing reality of Ryback being a shitter.
>>913932
The only ones WWE would be remotely interested are for signing/resigning are probably
Drew Galloway
Bobby Lashley
Booby Roode
The Hardyz or just Jeff
Maybe EC3?
Awesome Kong
Gail Kim
The wolves
>>913825
I don't think they'd know what to do without a corrupt authority overarching storyline.
The problem is that it's so played out by now that it's stale as fuck, but what else can they do? They don't know how to innovate anymore.
>>913980
I bet you like Sami's theme you faggot.
>>913936
>>913946
samoan world order with based tama tonga.
>>913978
>Bobby Lashley
Why? Apollo Crews can already fill that void and is 100x the wrestler Lashley ever was
>>913978
Do you really think they'd consider bringing back Drew McIntyre or Derrick Bateman? It seems like it would be an admission that they fucked up (to some degree) if they ditched them only to bring them back at high salaries after they demonstrated that they had the chops elsewhere.
>>913904
Ziggler tweeted last night that he was there, but I think it was a joke
>>913955
underrated post
>>913978
>Drew Galloway
Are you retarded?
>>913982
I dunno, something novel like having wrestlers feud over the belt, rather than having the program revolve around the McMahons, like it has for the past 20 years.
>>913967
He's still building up the new guy as a big deal, which is his job as a commentator (assuming the WWE does want to make AJ Styles seem like a big deal). It's like comparing The Miz to The Rock and Stone Cold because they held the same world title. It makes The Miz look good and it's a legitimate way to get someone over.
>>913984
How can you not? It fits him perfectly. Everyone on the main roster has generic Nu Metal, on NXT they are more likely to get unique themes that suit them.
>>913982
>what else can they do?
Invasion storyline. It's not innovative, but it's at least a different flavour of shit.
>>913988
>drew
no they already have balor and becky
>bateman
if he starts learning how to wrestle or willing to go back to NXT, yes. If not no.
>>913997
>How can you not? It fits him perfectly.
True, he is a cock sucking faggot like you.
Main roster themes are shit these days, what they really need is themes with lyrics, even if its nonsensical shit like rybacks, it's better than just a generic guitar riff alone.
>>913988
It's all about how they develop their image outside of WWE. AJ styles was on wwe for a very brief stint and probably would've been a shitty midcard.
He built his stock up, and now WWE is paying a guy whose got a couple years left in him prime money
>>914006
You can't really compare that to Galloway, though. He got a serious push and was a not-insignificant player on TV for a while.
>>914001
They didn't even get it right the first time, nor did they do it right the second.
Why would a storyline with a history of being booked wrong by a promotion be your top pick for what they should be doing? Especially when their booking quality has only gone downhill since?
>>914005
You have to be 18 or over to post on this site.
>>913978
The Wolves and Kong are the only ones I'd be personally interested in. EC3 is good, but I don't see him getting anywhere in roster stacked with more talented wrestlers. Same with Roode. Don't give a fuck about the Hardys or the Dudley because Edge can no longer actively compete and the TLC reunion dream feud is dead without Edge.
>that feel when AJ Styles' debut the other night from the crowds' perspective still makes you tear up
I know they're gonna drop the ball with him somehow but damnit that crowd
>>914017
The question was "what can they do?" If we're going to do fantasy booking (and that's where "what should they do?" leads), let's start a new thread for it.
>>913955
Literally burst out in laughter in the middle ofnlecture fuxk you
>>914016
That's true. That guy probably won't go anywhere
>>913985
Didn't Tonga resign with New Japan? Personally, I'd rather have Yellow Barbie. hnnnnnngg
>>913980
Nxt themes are garbage 18+

>AJ's resting in the corner selling getting beat
>crowds still chanting him while Reigns is getting the offensive on someone
>>914028
>you will never wrestle in NJPW and drown in Japanese pussy
>>914029
Objectively better than the main roster ones, the dubstep Australians aside.
>>914027
I'm just saying it's easy for WWE to ignore Styles being WWE property, that wouldn't work for Galloway.
>>914029
>That feel when Zayn will never have an Aquabats song as a theme
>>914005
Sheamus has the current best theme and it has no lyrics.
>>914044
>le kidz bops theme guy

True, i'd say it's one of the best, but his isn't cheesy rock shit like i was referring to.

How hard do you mark
>>914055
It's just as try hard as "HURR DURR"
>>914057
I'd say "they'd be stupid to not have them do a program at some point" but this is WWE we're talking about.
>>914057
>le comical fat man music
YOU SEE HERES THE THING ROMAN
>>914066
Ideally you don't want to pair two new signings/call ups together right away unless it's with a smarky crowd like the NXT one who knows their history. AJ's first feud should be with someone the Little Jimmies already know.
>>913646
So dumb

>>914074
And in Styles' case you don't want it to be an older guy like Jericho.
>>914074

Why did Samoa Joe go to NXT and not get streamlined to the main roster anyways?
>>914069
this is what I think of when I hear joe's theme
>>914077
You know damn well those were ordered at the same time as the belt itself.
>>914074
True enough, I did say "at some point."
Though if they do a good enough job building Styles up and get Joe in and do the same thing they could definitely speed up the process.
>>914077
Do you think Dolph Ziggler custom plates exist, and if they do, what are they?
>>914079
Commentary can say whatever they like but it's a dumb idea. Imagine all the Little Jimmies and casual fans flicking through, they see two wrestlers they have no idea who they are in the ring and switch off, deciding WWE isn't for them any more.
>>914077
>all those smarks who want HHH to win at Wrestlemania and have him drop it to Rollins

Why? Its been done.
It shoud be aj cutting a promo

>WOO WEE WOO WEE WOO WEE WOO
>BREQK THE WALLS.DOWN
>>914084
Because he's a better Samoan than Roman will ever be
Just like how it was illegal for Rhyno to Gore anyone because he hits a spear better
>>914087
>White Kingpin
posting superior kingpin
>>914084
Because WWE has no fucking plans for Samoa Joe. The only reason they signed him is to keep him from ROH and TNA; which is ridiculous because these promotions aren't in any league to compete with WWE.
>>914095
> it was illegal for Rhyno to Gore anyone because he hits a spear better
Why are you lying on the internet?

kek
>>914084
It is kind of mysterious, I guess NXT was suddenly short of main event talent due to the call ups but it still makes 0 sense. I guess when Joe FIRST started in NXT he seemed a little out of shape and has gotten better, but there is nothing he is going to learn down there, he is already a natural at everything due to being a vet.

How many times did you see "The Gore Machine" Rhyno actually Gore anyone on WWE TV when he returned against the Wyatts
>>914021
they already passed on the wolves thats why they are in TNA actually.
Kong didnt come back so theres something going on there.
>>914084
>streamlined
HE'S FAT!
>>914105
isn't Austin Aries a veteran too
>>914110

>Triple H and The New Blood, his vision for the future of the WWE
>both sides have both heels and faces in a loose alliance, neither side is completely unified against the other, both sides have reasons for the fans to cheer for them
>The Old Guard is lead by Cena, WWE's poster boy for years, 2nd and 3rd generation superstars like Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, Bo Dallas, Vince's mammoth's like Big Show and Lesnar and home grown talent like Dolph Ziggler
>The New Blood is lead by Seth Rollins and is made up of former indie darlings like AJ Styles, Finn Balor, Cesaro as well as NXT trained guys like Baron Corbin and Tyler Breeze
>the whole storyline is a deep look and thinly veiled fourth wall breaking social commentary at the history of pro wrestling as a culture and as an industry, how family ties can help you succeed in the business as opposed to being a first generation wrestler who struggles for years in the indie to make a name for yourself in the indies, how your size and physical appearance, or lack of, whether you succeed or fail in the business, and whether being a homegrown talent really those breed loyalty into a wrestler
>or they can just do a storyline where Roman Reigns punches everyone in the face for a year
>>914033
>AJ is more over in 3 minutes than Roman is in 3 years
>>914175
>someone wrestling for 2 decades is more over than a guy who was wrestling for 5 years
What a surprising discovery
>>914146
The companies are literally indistinguishable in terms of quality
Actually no I take that back
