C.S.

YES!!! Great match, and the right woman won.

My predictions: MitB Will Win: Seth and Becky Should Win: Sami and Liv Champs retain in the rest of the matches, unless Bayley replaces Carmella like Becky did at SummerSlam.

Men's Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Seth Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus vs. Omos vs. Sami Zayn vs. Riddle vs. Madcap Moss Women's Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Lacey Evans vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Liv Morgan vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Asuka vs. Shotzi vs. Becky Lynch Raw Women's Championship: Bianca Belair © vs. Carmella SmackDown Women's Championship: Ronda Rousey © vs. Natalya United States Championship: Theory © vs. Bobby Lashley Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship: The Usos © vs. The Street Profits

From Cageside Seats: In the Observer’s Daily Update, Dave Meltzer notes that neither WWE nor Jerry McDevitt have commented on the updated Vince McMahon rape allegation. Meltzer speculates that’s because the media hasn’t picked up the story, so it “doesn’t appear to be harmful to McMahon’s position right now.” So, nothing will happen. Nothing ever happens. As usual with the mainstream media, Wrestling Doesn't Matter.

I'll feel bad for that kid Cena said was 6 if he's really 13 or something, lol.

I think that's exactly how he's approaching it now.

Ali eliminated during a commercial. I had no idea who T-Bar was for most of the match. Not good signs for their future.

I'm reading a pack of lies about the underrated, underappreciated, always the GOAT, Christian, in this thread, and as Christian's Head Peep, my only response is shame on you!

Christian truly is the GOAT on every level. Absolutely deserves to be paid more than MJF by a significant margin!

WHY, CHRISTIAN, WHY?!?!

Surprised there isn't already a thread. R.I.P. Dave Heber One of the all-time great referees. Most famous for the "twin referees" angle during Hogan vs. Andre, but he had a long and distinguished career before and after. It's a shame that he was unceremoniously fired from WWE for supposedly counterfeiting merchandise - a charge he denied until the day he died. No In Memoriam graphic on Smackdown, and no HOF for either of the Hebners, even though they're both far more deserving than half the people already in. Update: R.I.P. Tim White The sad news keeps coming! In addition to being a great referee, he was also Andre the Giant's traveling partner and his bar was wrecked on TV by APA in more than one segment.

Biiiiiiig stretch to go from this to decrying the usage of Stephy, Brucie, etc. though. Context matters.

What?

#SameOldShit I realize injuries to Cody and Randy changed plans, but...yawn!

What do you mean? Maybe I'm just used to WWE's bullshit timing, but I'm honestly asking.

Drew looks like a fucking hothead meathead in this segment. How is Sheamus not the babyface here? Typical WWE asshole babyface bullshit.

To be fair, Keith Lee's Raw look was probably worse.

Or Kassius Ohno wearing basketball gear that doesn't flatter him.

Did Nattie get work done on her face?

Tino is the guy I pegged as the future prospect and next major star. So much for that...

I was ahead of the curve.

That was much ado about nothing, lol - Vince babyfacing himself, welcoming the fans, and leaving. Probably the best thing he could've done. Definitely the smartest.

To be fair, I never said it wouldn't become a big story - I just said it won't actually have a major effect long-term, and I still believe that. Yeah, Vince is stepping down temporarily. Okay, but this is not even the first time he's done that. If I'm wrong I'm wrong, but I expect WWE to be back to the status quo by next year - not counting any unforeseen circumstances like ill-health, death, a sale. etc.

Sterling is interesting. Nese is not. (IMO, of course.) Then again, that is the point of managers - to compensate for their wrestlers' deficits. The only thing better would be if Mauro returns to manage Christian against Jungle Boy.

Nese has the personality of stale bread. Anyone arguing that Nese is better than Christian in anything has to either be ribbing or trolling. Christian drew every dime, moved every needle, turned the WWE from a small mom and pop operation running smoky armories to the multi-billion dollar international juggernaut it is today, and transformed AEW from a faraway Florida fantasy into the fastest-rising wrestling company we've seen in decades. What did Nese ever do?
