KawadaSmile Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Dana Brooke actually wrestled and it was a fun, good little match. Best handspring elbow in the business! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenese Sarwieh Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Fun match between Rollins/Owens with a nice finishing sequence. Down the line I can see Owens having a huge babyface run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I know a lot people are down on Owens as a performer but god damn the bumps he was taking in that match.  And well all the bumps he's been taking the last couple months.  Yeah I could see the crowds getting behind him eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 KO's best match, at least ever since the Cena feud. Not too keen on the Stunner being used as a nearfall, but hey, that's bound to happen. Also, if their big plan is to have KO "quit", it better end up with him getting a good babyface run. Dude's been heel for his entire run, get some change please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I love Owens. He's one of my favorite wrestlers. And yeah, you add in the real life family man stuff to his constant bumping, you get a Foleyish face. In what's probably not a coincidence, Foley is one of my favorite performers ever.

sek69 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Watching on DVR and I'm at the Elias/Trish segment.

Strummer Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Holy shit they turned Braun heel. Â Did not see that coming. Â Wow second straight week with a shock ending. Â Good stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Told you all. I trust WWE when it comes to Braun/Roman. Braun is honorable enough to annouce the moment of his cash-in, but not honorable enough to fuck his opponent over before it. Get those 6-Man tags coming boys. Also, maybe he turned his briefcase in precisely because he wanted to fuck Roman over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I loved that as a shock ending but don't know long term with Braun as a heel. Â I mean it's interesting for damn sure but I still think the people like him and want to cheer him. Â But short term I'm really digging this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 You can just write this as him really hating Roman. I mean, so far it was his only big feud and both tried to kill each other in it. Sounds logical enough that he wasn't just going to be buddies with him in this circumstance.

He just turned heel. This post aged well.... Sorry Charles, couldn't resist. In all seriousness, can we stop thinking that every Roman heel "moment" is a turn? His merchandise outsells the absent Cena now and to Vince he's the franchise. They will not give up and they will not turn him. We will continue to get start and stop storylines all built around Roman, whether he's champion or not. Obviously many of you enjoy that and that's cool. But the idea that WWE has any sort of master plan goes against the past 15 years (plus?) of hard evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Hell of a past eight days turning popular faces heel, huh?  At first thought I think Braun  will work out better than Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricR Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 The Revival/B Team tag was super fun. Constant movement and good nearfalls and teases that played off their other matches so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMJ Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Yeah, considering The Miz had his fair share of supporters at SummerSlam and even Ziggler was cheered by like 10% of the crowd during his matches with Rollins, Braun will still be cheered over Reigns when they go 1-on-1. (Though I do think Reigns did a good job in his promo to start the show, Cena could be really hot on the mic and still get booed later on in the same show, so I'm not sure Reigns is going to talk his way into being universally cheered). Also, I know nobody is really saying it here but elsewhere on the internet, some fans are actually upset that they "turned Braun heel." Um...What? I thought we all agreed that Braun lost much of his aura the minute he tagged with 7 year olds and played the cello? If getting Bad Ass Braun back means he turned heel, may he never turn babyface again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he also would look like a complete dumbass to be friends with the guy who literally powerbombed him through a table last week. Anyway, it was still fucking odd.

Makai Club #1 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Seth vs Owens was good. The crowd really give the match this great energy and atmosphere. There was some nice sequences too. Not a fan of the no selling of the buckle powerbomb which at all. Just a waste of a move imo. And the early arm work by KO was just forgotten by the end. Still a good match though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are the second person to do this to me, the first one was on Twitter. It actually makes me angry when people dig up old posts and play "gotcha!" in a way that I can't even tell you, but I'm trying to be better. This week, Braun did something really heelish and both of these guys are the top babyfaces. Convention is dead. Everything is upside down. A big TV money, pink ring ropes during breast cancer month, trending on Twitter, "1-2, no!" mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Well, Braun became a fan favorite by doing heelish things and beating the shit out of Roman Reigns. He's gonna do exactly that for the coming months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Braun is one of those guys that just screams "HEEL". Killed the Raw tag team division by himself (although I did enjoy that segment with Nicholas), bullied KO into quitting the company... His road to superstardom started with him killing jobbers. People enjoyed that for the sheer cartoon brutality (as they should), but his shelf life as heel is much bigger than as a face. I mean, other than teaming up with small guys like Nicholas and Finn, there wasn't really much to his face tenure. He's not going to cool down either way.
