WWE Crown Jewel: No Girlz ALLOWED~!

[hammerva]

So apparently Vince heard about the Jacob Wohl story and said "amateurs this is how you do it pally"  

[Stiva]

I'm watching it, fuck it. It's hilarious seeing Hogan side-stepping any mention of Saudi Arabia but it has the typical WWE way of not actually making any sense. It sounded like Hogan got on a plane to the WWE Universe

[SirEdger]

Have you heard about that story that one clause of the WWE-Saudi Arabia deal is that should Vince decide to sell WWE, that murderer prince Mohammad Bin Salman gets first crack at it? And he's allegedly willing to offer 7 BILLIONS to buy the company!!!

[Matt D]

International atrocities aside, I'd have to lose a bet to willingly watch a Ziggler vs Rollins match.

[Mad Dog]

Yeah. I'm done with modern WWE for awhile with the Universal Title result.

To be fair, it sets up Braun chasing through WrestleMania. 

Maybe they sneak a Drew reign in there to shake it up.

[sek69]

I guess this means Brock signed another deal, which if that's the case we might need to move him past Kevin Nash in the "most money for the least work" Hall of Fame rankings.

He got squashed like a bug and they'll just job him at Mania. Seriously fuck this company. 

[SteveJRogers]

Plus if Braun did win, it becomes Undertaker at OTE for least regarded title change of a popular character due to the controversy surrounding the event.

[WingedEagle]

The show reads like an absolute slog thus far, and the booking quite a ways below that.  On the other hand, booking be damned, I'm absolutely stoked for the title match at Survivor Series.

At least this confirms that Shane McMahon is the Best In The World.

Well the whole World Cup was a trollable concept anyway, so...what the fuck! *throws up hands and sighs*

[El-P]

Not following anything, but apparently Renee is not wearing a hijab, just dressed in black with almost-gloves on ? Wanna bet they are gonna make a big deal about this ?

Has old-ass Shawn made his comeback already ? Does anyone care ? Are they referring to "beautiful, progressive Riyad ?" (I would guess not, reading the stuff about Hogan)

[SteveJRogers]

I mean the last time they had an in kayfabe thing of “greater importance than meer titles”, Shane interupted that with his grand return!

[sek69]

I wonder if someone else was supposed to win, and had second thoughts about being associated with this show/possibly being used for future SA propaganda.

 

Also I'm all for them turning this show into a farce as some form of meta-level piss take. 

[SirEdger]

Apparently, Triple H fucked up his shoulder, according to Justin LaBar?

[Matt D]

They're just setting up Survivor Series, right? It's all fodder for that.

I find it hilarious. I'm glad they went with the troll option.

Best in the world...

The cynicism of these people is just amazing.

[fakeplastictrees]

There is no way in hell 2000 WCW puts on this show and gets away with it. The Shane McMahon swerve, the Hulk Hogan appearance, the old man main event, the NO GIRLZ ALLOWED~! policy, two top stars backing out, Shane McMahon plugging his wife's movie, etc.

[sek69]

Looks like Triple H is going to need surgery for whatever injury he got today, so maybe a silver lining from today will be no plodding WM "instant classic" match.

If Impact even did a single thing that was on this show it would be endless LOLTNA.

Please tell me that Virgil and the Kayfabe sign are photoshopped in.
