Wrestling Thread 5: FKA The Viking Experience • Page 223

Yeah it will be

 

Awesome, couldn't find anything online. I didn't watch Double or Nothing on there so this will be using my first time using the App. How was the app when people watched Double or Nothing?

 

Rumors for the Day:

• On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer mentioned that PPV buys for Stomping Groundswere stunningly low, the fallout show drew the smallest Raw crowd in years, and more TV viewers are opting to not watch Raw and SmackDown during their live broadcasts.
• All those were mentioned as proof WWE is declining in popularity, and the company is “legitimately” in “a bad period”.
• Undertaker handpicked Drew McIntyre to be one of his opponents coming off his embarrassing match at Super ShowDown, according to Sports Illustrated.

 

NXT really fucked up their women’s program sheesh

Shayna winning the title a second time was a huge mistake - her reign and interference shenanigans are way past stale.

Kairi should have retained and entered a placeholder feud with Lacey Evans or heel Belair and then build up to Io turning on Kairi for the most fire program of the year

Instead they called up Kairi to the main roster to do nothing

 

I think they put on WWE ads. Like the Tapout stuff, or WWE shop stuff you would see on the network/NXT. I haven't watched it live in a long time so that could be wrong/different now. When I watched main roster stuff I'd usually just record it and skip the ads.

Yeah wikipedia says the same

"Live imported television programmes such as WWE Raw show promotional material in place of U.S. advert breaks."

 

I like this tweet the most this week

 

CM Punk is countersuing Colt lol

 

Smackdown in Portland only drew 2500 people. Holy shit attendance is dropping lower than I ever thought it would.

 

It's great

 

It still won't stop Vince from giving us Shane and Corbin in top roles unfortunately

 

We are getting closer and closer to October. Vince is feeling the heat big time.

 

Y’all like Roman, right? The Real-Life Diet of Roman Reigns, Who's Back on the Road After Battling Leukemia

 

He also eats chicken and rice and vegetables. I hope the internet doesn’t get mad at him too

 

I've eaten healthy for 3 days and still look like shit wtf

 

Holy shit at the Tommy Dreamer interview.

Basically, he was in such a bad place in life when ECW shut down, that when he found out about Texas having lax gun laws, he planned on hopping the rail at WrestleMania X7, killing Paul Heyman, then killing himself

 

Also Heyman is now running RAW and SmackDown is gonna be run by.....


Bischoff

 

what could possibly go wrong

 

Wish I was excited by that announcement.

 

Wtf at the last few posts

 

I haven’t watched wwe in a while just been keeping up on socials, but that announcement reeks desperation, I wonder how it’ll affect the product

 

Hahahahaha

 

why are people down on Heyman running Raw? he's been responsible for some truly great periods and seems to be very tuned in to what is currently hot and working in wrestling

 

Bischoff is obviously a different story but im interested to see what he can do tbh, feels like he has something to prove

 

What a get, Mick
You’re killing it

 

"headlining Smackdown Live every Tuesday night"

Mick what fucking show have you been watching
