Smack2k Posted September 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Orton is now definitely winning on Sunday Well yeah. They couldn't have Orton lose the belt he won at Summerslam one month later at a September PPV... unless it was to Triple H WWE has been surprising lately, so who knows... I still think Bryan wins, but is forced to give the title back and is then not allowed anymore title matches due to someone (hopefully Cody) running in....that type of thing...I would LOVE that...especially if, as said before, Cody and Dustin maybe have something to do with the end when it looks like the Shield and Orton are gonna prevail.. That would kick this into HIGH gear....will wait to see what happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I was there live with Dave Musgrave and damn was that a fun show. The Goldust much is the best live match I've seen this year. It was so great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the one who brought up the Rhodes interference at NOC but after last night played out with Stephanie's gloating after Goldust lost, I am thinking there is a different payoff planned for that particular angle. Plus the Big Show is too tied in the core storyline with DB and the Regime. I think whatever the outcome is, Show's actions will decide it (forced interference, heel turn or outright rebellion leading to his own termination). I think the Rhodes thing won't be paid off until after the Bionic Elbow man gets involved down the road. They will want to sell the firing as long as possible.

sek69 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I know Dusty's a polarizing figure, but a "Hard Times 2013" style promo would be a great addition to the angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueminister Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 tbh i'm wondering if they're using the fall of the house of rhodes as a gradual reintroduction for WAR GAMES but that seems too good an idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slasher Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 tbh i'm wondering if they're using the fall of the house of rhodes as a gradual reintroduction for WAR GAMES but that seems too good an idea You had the makings of a decent War Games even before the Rhodes Family angle. You have Daniel Bryan, along with the obvious dissenters like Big Show (whatever happened to his pairing with Mark Henry?), Dolph Ziggler, Cody Rhodes and The Miz. You could also easily get RVD involved if needed, but I don't think Triple H should be wrestling anyways yet, so you really just have Orton and the Shield (although Ryback being roped in is a natural way to add another big time antagonist if needed). On a different note, this will never happen and it probably should not happen, but a small part of me wants to see Brock Lesnar as the outsider wild card factor vs the Regime. The fact the bosses are shitting on Heyman keeps that small hope from being completely squashed. I am just not too interested in the Punk/Heyman storyline and I just kinda want them to refocus the Heyman heat back onto Brock. Part of it is because Axel bores me to tears and he is nowhere near talented enough to stand toe to toe with Punk, therefore it just isn't credible that Heyman believes Axel can take care of the Punk problem for him.

I hope you are right....but 3 things: 1. The Cody thing woudlnt get his job back and just make him hotter for a return 2. The belt would be returned the next night to Orton, really angering fans and kicking that HHH COO into another level. 3. This one is the sad one, looking at the Punk thing in 2011, will they really wait more than a month to hold anything off?? I just love your idea that I am actually really really hoping it happens! It would still allow for soo much more...Big Show can still be involved the next night, forced to take the belt from Bryan and at NOC he could be banned from ringside by HHH or be fired.

RWOOD Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 To answer the question about Henry, he was injured the week after Summerslam... At a house show I believe. Same leg injury as before if I recall correctly. I follow WWE on Facebook and there was a post in passing about it. To comment quickly on the current state of affairs, the main event angle has produced some great matches and not so great moments. I wish Show never cried, and found it odd they didn't cut back to an HHH reaction when Show didn't knock Bryan out and he subsequently got the upper hand on Orton. Did he just take off after giving the instructions? Orton, despite being billed as slightly cowardly by Cole, has soundly defeated all opponents cleanly (Cody, RVD, Dustin) and has had compelling matches. He doesn't necessarily need the Shield but they are still there. He looks like a strong heel champion which isn't something they do well .... Ever. Everyone on the heel side of things are playing their roles great. Glad to see Bryan finally got some comeuppance in Toronto. It foreshadows him losing in a screwy way which is something that has to happen. I'd hate to see this turn into something where the title changes hands every three weeks. The Bryan/Ambrose match was great. Cesaros giant swing even had me dizzy. Great show overall this week. Wish they didn't have to brush off genuine crowd reactions as bizarre though.... Didn't get to go to the taping in Ottawa last night due to scheduling conflicts. Sorry I have no Shinfo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Flair has flaws but I still love him for being Flair. I can agree with that. And to be honest, I'm no longer at a point where I enjoy wrestling for the work itself, but rather the creative direction. I am more interested in putting together storylines and angles and shows than I am in what guy did and/or whether two guys were able to put together a good match. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the work that those guys put in, but Daniel Bryan is big with me for his sociological experiment of a push than it is because he puts on good matches week in and week out, which he does.

Marty Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Didn't get to go to the taping in Ottawa last night due to scheduling conflicts. Sorry I have no Shinfo. I was there. Good times. Stuff you guys won't see on TV: - Tyson Kidd and Bo Dallas had a fun opening dark match. Bo Dallas is fun as a heel, claiming he was in Montreal. Kidd got a strong home country reaction. Tyson got the win. - Bryan and Orton closed the evening with a dark match for the title, with the Shield running in for the DQ, followed by Kofi, RVD and Ziggler evening the odds and posing to send the fans home happy. Bryan and Orton moreless sleepwalked through the match and it was still pretty good. Those two are clicking together, their match Sunday should be good. - Yes, as reported, the Divas had to re-do their finish. Initially, it was AJ running in for the DQ (bell took a while to ring, in fact) a brawl happens, but she gets away. Second time (which will be the one shown) there's more of a beatdown on her by her three opponents Sunday. Because of how things happened, it wouldn't shock me at all if the re-do was done for Total Divas purposes. Either way, both times the Divas were out, it was pretty heatless except for home country girl Nattie. A cool takeaway from the event were three ladies in about the third row dressed as The Shield, right down to one of them having the same hair streaks as Rollins. For me, they're contenders for that "Memorable Fans" thread. They should be fairly viewable on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I don't think this is a spoiler, really...and it's pretty fucking cool given the Dream talk, but I'll spoiler tag it anyway. "Josh Reubens sent word that at tonight's WWE NXT taping in Winter Park, Florida, WWE ran an angle where Triple H removed Dusty Rhodes from his job as GM of NXT, replacing him with former WWE champion JBL." I'm loving this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheGreatPuma Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 I am wondering what Danielson is going to have a name for his busaiku knee or will it remain anonymous forever? I would personally like the "Kentanator". It seems odd that the move he won the championship over John Cena with -- the biggest name in the company -- doesn't have a name yet. I wonder what the story is behind that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Liska Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Stephanie on twitter just invited Dusty to appear on RAW Monday. This is too great. A Rhodes family angle getting plenty of WWE TV time in 2013, supporting a Daniel Bryan headline face angle (who's headlined recent RAWs against Ambrose and Rollins) - if someone on the internet fantasy-booked this they would be mocked.
