hammerva Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Well I assume that next week or 2 we are going to see the ring with about 50 New day fans holding Smackdown hostage I must say Byron in the background pissed and disgusted at the end was a great visual. Whether it was intentional or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hopefully Nikki Cross will be leading the charge. Her clapping and cheering for Kofi backstage was absolutely, utterly precious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Maybe we will see the return of THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS to overturn Vince Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Who is out there for Kofi to beat besides Bryan to earn the title shot? At this point it's gotta be a case of Kofi/New Day pissing either Vince or Bryan off to the point of letting him wrestle at Mania so DB can teach him a lesson or something. Still, I was again pissed at Vince for pulling this fuckery on Kofi again, so they got me hooked for 3 weeks in a row now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 It's not just The New Day that's on Kofi's side. They made sure that with every cut to backstage, more and more people were rooting for him. Everyone, from the Usos to Ricochet to Nikki Cross to Ali to AJ to KO and even The Man are on his side. Shit's gonna be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I wonder if they are building up to a "Kofi Movment" where the rest of the SD locker room demands justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 So, as far as the Angle / Corbin match... I'm just watching RAW on Hulu now and it struck me as odd Gable came out in red, white,, and blue with his old "Ready, Willing, and Gable" towel gimmick. If I was a betting man I'd wager that Gable is going to be feuding with Baron Corbin after Mania, or teaming with him after helping take out the "old Olympian ".

I think we should not forget that originally, it was Stephanie & Shane (before his heel turn) who declared Kofi the #1 contender for the WWE Championship until Vince decided to be Vince. Yeah, I think that the rest of the babyface locker room will play a factor in this but I wonder also at one point if Stephanie & Triple H won't also have a role to play in overturning the situation.

I've been calling a "McMahon Family War" that ends with Vince off to do the XFL and HHH running things since they started the whole " no more GM's" angle. Hopefully HHH calls Vince "Pops" again.

My impression was that he switched back to his old gear more as a tribute to Angle, to show him and everyone else who his hero was and who influenced him to become a wrestler (both amateur and pro). But I'd love for your idea to come to fruition. A legitimate singles run for Gable would be great - but as a babyface against Corbin, not a Corbin lackey.

It was the "Ready, Willing, and Gable" towel that raised my eyebrow. And I want him to help Corbin, not as a lackey, but as a way to get over as a heel. Gable can be a great heel, he showed it in NXT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strummer Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 On WOR Dave seemed to be implying that wwe has changed its "policy" on listening to crowd reactions so he thinks they might change Angle v Corbin. The announcement of the match Monday was not meant as a swerve or misdirect to lead to another match. But he thinks with them listening to crowds more a good chance the match changes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiva Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Miz' Smackdown promo was money, man. I loved how he stayed consistent and in character, admitting he'd done some bad shit in the past but spun it into sheer babyface charm by telling us it was all for the love of a parent. It's amazing how a guy selling an angle and acting like he cares and is hurt by the heel's actions makes for so much more heat and interest in their match. Crazy, right? It was awesome to see someone actually rebel against the Authority with his "You don't own me" line too. Heel Bryan vs Face Miz is the route they have to go, even if I do want Kofi to get his moment.
