Maybe his nationality would cause some issues?

 

Probably. Saudi Arabia & Lebanon don't get along.

 

Cass sucks and he's dangerously sloppy. So of course, let's book Daniel Bryan with him.

 

The wrestling legacy of this shit-show will be Titus sliding under the ring. And Taker vs Rusev had a good match, 90% thanks to Rusev.

 

Well, this card should win Worst major show of the Year & Most disgusting promotional tactic of the Year. It was awful.

 

Oh fuck me, Vince parading with one of the Saudis.... Time to go vomit somewhere.

 

In two weeks : back to business : Women's Evolution and shit.

 

Fuck off.

 

 

 

Change happens inside communities. Black communities and the world around them changed by black folks doing activism. Feminism was started by women, for women. It's by empowering Saudi Arabia women that change can happen for the better.

 

It won't happen if some Trump supporters or centrist "social" liberals pretend to care for a couple of seconds about women to justify their Islamophobia.

 

It's a small step, with flaws, but it's a step. It has nothing to do with the women's revolution in WWE.

 

As for being a show for the marks, that's exactly what the perfect wrestling card was, and always will be. Because wrestling ultimately is for marks.

 

As for this show being in some "journalist" list, we won't lose any sleep over it.

Plerase don't give it to Crapman. Make it more unpredictable and be someone else.

 

AMEN. All I was thinking all match. Out of all the cool possibilities to do something unique and different, it went the absolute most predictable route possible. Sucks.

 

Also am I misremembering, or didn't they announce the Big Show would be in this?

Wahhabism and absolute monarchy is bad actually. Most disgusting promotional tactic of the century.

 

Glad I tapped out early on and went to see the Avengers. You guys were entertaining as always though!

Holy fuck Daniel Bryan's chest looks like he just went into the ring with PCO And what the hell is going on with his arms. I mean that looks like something a rookie gets running the ropes a couple 100 times.

 

Between Braun pushing a ton of people into Cass's knees as he was entering the ring and Lashley almost destroying him with the brainbuster, he is going to be sore as fuck for the flight home.

 

I don't get it I thought Wrestlemania was more of a chore to get through that this show. Some pretty dull things like the tag title match and yeah the world title finishes were pretty bad but some good action. Cena vs Triple H was better than it should be. AJ vs Nakamura today was better than AJ vs Nakamura even with the count out finish. You could argue that Reigns vs Brock today was slightly better than Reigns vs Brock at WM although it is hard to figure what was the dumbest booking move between the two.

 

I can understand the "most disgusting" award winner and probably deserving but worst show of year man I don't see it at all

I was watching the finish to the Brock-Roman match again and it looks like when Roman rolls off the cage panel that one foot is on the ground and the other one is caught on the skirt of the ring apron. I think both of Brock's feet actually do touch the floor first. Flimsy but maybe the layer of the apron skirt is enough barrier for semantics of the rules here.

So today's WO update mentions Zayn was kept off the show because WWE is big on respecing local cultures and customs. Which one would imagine mean not using a guy who's been pretty vocal raising funds to help people underneath the bombs probably being paid for by the Saudis.

Which is total bullshit.

 

Seriously, fuck Saudi Arabia.

So is that an official title or is it just a trophy title for the winner of it?

 

That was a loooong show. Not a bad show, not a great show either.

 

The rumble got fun near the end and a ton of random entries no one cared for or knew.

 

Also Corey "All over Kevin Owens like a Byron Saxton cheap suit" was line of the night for me.

It's a fucking shame that he felt he had to post that. Some assholes yell at him online that he's a "hypocrite " in this situation.

 

If you truly support LGBT, you don't go and perform in Saudi Arabia in front of the Royal Family who's idea of gay rights is "immorality, perversion and whiplashes". Or you do make a statement of sorts if you got the iron balls to do it. What message it sends to the LGBT in SA, really is : "Hey, I'm really supporting you, but I had to put smiles in the faces of people who consider you as sub-human beings and don't recognize your right to even exist.". It's better to say nothing at all really. I know it's probably not his reponsability anyway, but then again, you're not a robot either.

 

As far as Zayn, I would have been shocked to see him.

Of course Fuck the WWE.
