Wrestling Thread 7: FTR Baldhausen • Page 1468

Nah, they had to be best friends forever to pay off that 2009 angle; and it’s fairly famous that Cornett nearly ruined KOs career by holding him out as long as he did into that ladder war.

The beauty of the relationship is they have to reach the peaks for KO and turn to seek the valley. Sami had to finally become NXT champ so KO could provide for his family by turning. Sami had to go main roster so KO could follow. They had to chase belts, etc. The piece de resistance is that Sami had to break Roman in a way KO couldn’t; and become a grand slam champ in the process, before turning

KO winning the belt via war games; even more so if Sami helps him, would beautifully set up a KO/Sami WM40 main…but I don’t think Hunter sees them that way

 

Jey looked so broken that whole segment. And maybe it’s my TV but it kind of looks like everyone’s dropped 5 to 10 pounds just to look worn out.

Like Jey just looks weary cutting that promo

 

Though the thing that would keep me watching WWE into the post-WM era would be a tease that Roman got to KO and they were gonna run back a version of the “Sami won’t hit KO” story. That’s THE pure baby face stuff for Sami

 

It’s so irritating that WWE is gonna take that moment as being right about Sami and KO as opposed to further evidence they were dead wrong not to have Sami win in Montreal.

 

I had a feeling they were going to drag this out another week, but forgot that last episode was an anomaly with this story taking a backseat.

 

Rumor is Flair and Ripley main eventing night 1 and I can see the crowd turning on that

 

If it is anything but Sami/KO vs Usos the crowd is not going to be into it.

 

Ever since someone mentioned in here that Jey should cost Roman the title at Mania I need it to happen so bad lol

 

lol

 

My dumb ass was trying to picture rhea vs ric at mania

 

Usos/KO and Sami is apparently not main eventing night one

 

Yeah that’s a big mistake. The hottest storyline in years not being paid off in the main event is an absolute joke if that’s true. Charlotte/Rhea hasn’t been built great at all and I could see the crowd potentially turning on them.

 

Bianca/Asuka would have a hotter crowd than them. But yeah, Usos/KO and Sami should definitely main event night one

 

The only way I could see this working is if they put the tag title on night 2 and have the downfall of the bloodline all in one night.

 

SRS says its still up in the air, Meltzer says its the women, Frog man says its the tag match. The trifecta of wrestling journalism has been achieved

 

So Gunther is definitely dropping the IC title?

 

most likely. Sheamus just needs to IC belt to become a triple crown member.

 

Makes senses it won’t hurt Gunther and Sheamus deserves it

 

Tag match HAS to be the main event night one. It makes sense in every possible way.

 

This randomly reminded me how good that DDP/Raven feud in WCW was. Also crazy that DDP was doing the "PMA Guy" gimmick as far back as the late 90's.
