I think Rollins is turning face again

 

Lol Triple H took Vince's favorite and made him look like a clown

 

Got some new figs lol

 

Oooh that reminds me that I still have an Excalibur preorder that should be coming in this month.

 

Did they make a Malakai Black figure yet?

 

That’s series two along with Omega and I think those are shipping soon

 

Also I think WWE successfully pulled a double turn with Seth and Bobby - feels like the hurt business will be back soon and I’m glad Theory is out of the picture

 

Need to get me one of those!

 

I think a regular Unrivaled/Unmatched figure is coming soon too but I love the Unrivaled Supreme figs a lot

AEW Supreme Collection 2 | Ringside Collectibles

hmm guess they are shipping in January

 

That is cool as fuck. A bit pricy but probably worth it lol

 

Well, that cash in was stupid. I guess the lost confidence in Theory? Either that or they wanna get rid of the MITB PPV and have the matches at Mania or something? Obviously Theory is never going to cash in before then, so getting it off him early makes sense. But they could have at least had Reigns squash him if something.

I dunno. Half decent Raw outside of that. Apart from Riddle ruining a great promo from the Uso’s and the New Day.

 

I wouldn’t say they so much as lost confidence in Theory, it’s more that the one person who believed in him and put him in that position is gone and everyone else never really saw much in him

 

True. But Trips liked him in NXT. I thought he may have built him up a bit more. Ah well. Don’t like him anyway, so it’s fine with me haha

 

I think the biggest theory problem is he had no character and has not evolved his character since getting the briefcase. Seems like multiple times in the trips era they had someone like KO or Drew cut a promo on him begging him to bring something else to the table and he didn’t evolve.

 

Asuka and Iyo are treasures.

 

Eventually we’re gonna get an Iyo/Asuka championship feud and I can’t wait

 

who is that on the far left?

 

CM punk

 

And certainly not an "I'm a threat to take the belt from Roman" level person. Or if someone beats Roman at Mania, then they are MADE, and Theory is gonna cash in on them?

This was the right way to just get rid of the briefcase and do a reset.

 

Yeah, they needed to get rid of the briefcase.I guess they had time to build him more but the crowd didn’t respond to Theory at all even when they were trying to push him. He’s in that Alpha Academy tier where he just jobs to everyone. He probably needs to go away for awhile & do a repackage.

 

Shoulda had him put it on the line in a match and give it to whoever is going to beat Roman and start the build for that. At the end of the day I'm just glad they didn't do another, "I'M CASHING IN..........BY HAVING A TITLE MATCH AT THE NEXT PPV".

Just like with Charlotte and the NXT belt, I do like that they set the precedent that any belt can be cashed in on.

 

Why would you cash in on the US title lol.

missed most of Raw, but I think Theory desperately needs repackaging. Guy wasn’t ready.
