TheDuke Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I really am liking this new angry Bo Dallas. It made his match with Neville a lot more enjoyable than it otherwise would have been, and I am happy that he won actually. Also it only went one segment which in the current WWE environment I feel can actually be a plus. Both the Jericho/Rollins match and the Big E/Sheamus match went two segments, and I don't feel either match really needed it. Especially not the Big E/Sheamus match as that one was essentially setting up a storyline about Facebook, and the match just felt like it was wasting time up until the finish.

Jordan Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 "This was specifically something I had in mind for wrestling Brock" sigh.... Big E vs Sheamus seemed good, from what my shaky stream would let me see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Wow are they really trying to de-value Bayley in the effort of putting over Dana Brooke. No idea what Triple H sees in Dana because it seems like everything she learned in NXT evaporated. Unless Neville is going to be in the cruiserweight division like Sin Cara, he has no future on RAW Oh god no are they booking Sami Zayn vs Braun Strowman now.

goc Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Oh god no are they booking Sami Zayn vs Braun Strowman now. Oh god no they are booking a guy who has been doing absolutely nothing in a match that will make him look like the underdog babyface he should be instead of just some dude cosplaying as a Japanese wrestler like his matches with Kevin Owens!

sek69 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 They did a really good job with the video packages all throughout the show to tell people even if you never saw WCW this Goldberg guy is a big deal. He cut probably the best promo of his career, and it helped that he seemed caught off guard at how big a reaction he got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what Triple H sees in Dana because it seems like everything she learned in NXT evaporated. Dana also botched the finish of the match. She was supposed to win with her feet on the ropes, but she was too far away to make it happen. Pretty interesting that 3 former NXT champions jobbed back-to-back tonight on what is supposedly HHH's show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMKK Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Goldberg cut the best promo of the show by far last night and was really made to look like a big deal. Not to take anything away from his own performance, but it should be so obvious that giving stars credibility and allowing them to speak with sincerity will get them over but WWE doesn't learn this lesson for anyone on the regular roster.

Mick Foley with Mick Foley.1 hr ·CHILLSForget for a moment about Stephanie McMahon's jumping high-five or my awkward attempt to hug the #RAW Comissioner. The biggest moment of the night for us came when the #WWE cameras were off, and Stephanie and I just looked at the #HIAC poster, realizing that for #WomensWrestling, history is upon us - as Sasha Banks and Charlotte will main event the #HIAC PPV. I am so happy for Sasha, for Charlotte, for all the women who paved the way, and all those who aspire to follow in their footsteps.

jushin muta liger Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 The build up to this should've been fleshed out more. Their feud hasn't warranted HIAC yet. If this was the plan, they should've had Dana cost Sasha the title match at the Raw in LA which gives them a reason to book HIAC to keep her out. The heat for this match would be ten times bigger if Sasha was coming into her hometown as Challenger. This has been thrown together haphazardly cause WWE seems to be banking on the Women's Revolution PR instead of letting it play out through a well thought out storyline. I hate that this will be more material for higher ups to use for their conference presentations instead of actually making stars. Both of them should be made as top stars after this but I have a fear they won't. There's a reason why Goldberg walked in last night and became the number one babyface in the promotion.

sek69 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 It's going to be so weird to watch the internet continue to act like the audience doesn't remember Goldberg as this feud goes on. It's like people want to dislike this so bad and won't even consider the possibility that there's a a really good chance they'll have a fun brawl full of plunder at the PPV.

Maybe they'll curb their self-indulgence and not hug in the middle of the ring after the match. Sasha just took time off for a back injury, and she's managed to cut back the excess bumping since then. I wonder if being in a main event gimmick match will resurrect her bad habits.

C.S. Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 UPDATE: Foley edited his statement. * Mick's note: I have no idea which match will go on last, or which match will go down in history as being the official main event. The Universal Championship match between Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins is shaping up to be something special, and I am sure both men will be doing their best to steal the show – which is as it should be. In the end, the main event is whatever each fan decides it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMJ Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Mick's right. Based on fan response, the fans sometimes decide a woman flashing her chest in Section 137B is the main event - which is as it should be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Can women blink in WWE without it turning into some self-congratulatory fake "moment"? It's definitely a big deal, but the magnitude of it can speak for itself. They don't have to hammer us with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I don't think they can help it. Half of it is Vince wanting to make Steph seem like a trailblazer and half seems to be them trying to prove to sponsors they don't treat women as shitty as they did in the Attitude era.
