WingedEagle Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 This is a show and lineup where my interest is about as low as can be for a PPV, yet I fully expect a number of matches to be good. That usually leads to a pleasantly suprising night, but if they run really long that could easily not happen. Just a cold show but one with a lot of potential. Quote
cpst Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I'm irrationally psyched for this PPV. Maybe I just want to get my mind off of the election. I think Sasha/Charlotte will be the best HIAC match, followed by Reigns/Rusev. The undercard has a really wide range of potential outcomes in terms of match quality, so that will probably determine the overall quality of the show. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I'm gonna watch and am quite excited purely because it is three cage matches in a row. Quote
donsem43 Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I wonder if they will mess with the order since the Cubs are facing elimination tonight while the World Series has been getting great ratings as a whole. Quote
cpst Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I'm gonna watch and am quite excited purely because it is three cage matches in a row. New podcast idea: TNA Lockdown Excite Series Quote
stro Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 Only match I'm interested in is Rusev/Roman, because I know those two have a great match against each other in them, and this has to be the time they pull it out. Everything else I feel like I've seen 30 times this year. Including Rusev/Roman. I will never understand WWE's insistence on running PPV matches 2-3 times before the PPV. Not even like a short match with no finish, but PPV length match a week or two before the big show. Quote
hammerva Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I am interested in TJ Perkins vs Kendrick because I really want to see what they are actually planning after watching RAW. I mean Kendrick basically begged for the finger poke of doom because he has to win and doesn't think he can. Really hope this isn't booked to make TJP look like a complete sucker. I would be fine Kendrick winning the belt if it leads to a feud with Rich Swann Quote
C.S. Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 The Perkins-Kendrick "please let me win because I bought you a Big Mac when you were homeless" storyline is atrocious and a slap in the face to everything the CWC represented. This six-man Cruiserweight jobber match feels like the Worst of Nitro. Other than Cedric Alexander and maybe the future potential of Daivari's brother, none of these guys mean anything or will ever draw a dime. Quote
cpst Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 Don't interrupt a match on the preshow for an advertisement for the same show people are already watching. smh @ this shit Quote
Coffey Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I'm looking forward to Reigns/Rusev. Also, I want Cesaro/Sheamus to win the tag titles, I don't even care. Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I love that Mauro is calling the indys the "freelance scene" . Quote

cpst Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 Kofi Kingston doing the Dave Chappelle generic white person voice when making fun of Tom is pretty great. Quote

That's the point. If the "point" is to take away everything that made the CWC, Cruiserweights, and CW division stand out, compelling, and capable of drawing money, then mission accomplished. Quote
stro Posted October 30, 2016 Report Posted October 30, 2016 I am interested in TJ Perkins vs Kendrick because I really want to see what they are actually planning after watching RAW. I mean Kendrick basically begged for the finger poke of doom because he has to win and doesn't think he can. Really hope this isn't booked to make TJP look like a complete sucker. I would be fine Kendrick winning the belt if it leads to a feud with Rich Swann For the life of me, I can't figure out why they picked TJP to win the CWC. I get that Ibushi and ZSJ didn't want to sign, but of the elite eight, he would have been my eighth choice. In fact, I watched the Evolve show where he qualified and was far more interested in Fred Yehi, who I had never even heard of before. TJP has been such a non-factor everywhere he's been, which is pretty much everywhere. And he never lasts long anywhere, which seems to say a lot about his personality. Cruiserweights were DOA largely in part due to TJP being the face of the division. Quote
cpst Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Roman Reigns, the most despicable heel on Raw, who attacked a man's innocent family and interrupted his wedding, will finally be vanquished by the lovable Bulgarian babyface Rusev. Quote
cowboy hats Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Haven't watched any Raw programming since the split. Is Lana looking completely different just a matter of her letting her hair down? Quote
cpst Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Haven't watched any Raw programming since the split. Is Lana looking completely different just a matter of her letting her hair down? Isn't she on Total Divas now? Maybe they just want her to look more like she does in real life. Quote
Johnny Sorrow Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 Rusev biting on the chain rules. Quote
cpst Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 That matched started off like a WWE 2K17 Career Mode HIAC match, but it got pretty good later on, roughly after the kendo stick was introduced. That Accolade with the chain on the steps was fucking great. Quote
clintthecrippler Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 I love watching Roman Reigns and Rusev go at it, but damn I am thinking the ending sequence was a missed opportunity. For a second I talked myself into thinking they were going to have Roman pass out in the chain-assisted Accolade and then the final feud-settling battle would be a Russian Chain Match where Roman finally wins the feud definitively. Quote
WingedEagle Posted October 31, 2016 Report Posted October 31, 2016 That match had its moments but it felt really cold until the kendo stick and chain got involved, and even the finish seemed mistimed. Its odd as Reigns's selling was great as always and his offense always looks solid, but this was probably the worst match they've had thus far. Just way too long. Quote
