Reigns/Wyatt feels inevitable

 

Ugh did people even care about that match the first time? lol

 

Kevin Owens should win it and beat Brock. He's the hottest thing going on RAW, he's got no obvious feud beyond Seth right now, and a set-up feud of him beating Seth actually positions him nicely. Also has a nice little tie-in to Goldberg/Brock costing him his big WM match a few years back. Only other RAW people that make any sense are Rusev and AJ.

D-Bry winning and dethroning The Fiend would be the obvious SD side of things. Romans the only one on that roster that otherwise makes any sense.

If they involve the NXT title in the Rumble options...then I could see Finn or Lee or Ciampa winning it.

 

Womens side feels easy; Charlotte's winning it unless they are bringing Shayna up.

 

Rhea please

 

That's the darkest timeline. Because it means Shayna is still champion...

 

She can be the NXT champ AND rumble champ!

 

Give it to us

 

Damn that Dec 18th NXT might as well be a takeover. Kinda hope they go all in on it and give us something like Riddle vs Swerve vs Strong as well.

 

I’ve never wanted a random fantasy booking to be true more than that Marty is the force behind all the AEW villain factions thing that got posted the other day.

 

I think there was a promo on twitter or facebook from MJF saying he hired the butcher and the blade to attack cody?

 

Harper to aew has got to happen. Absolutely no clue what Vince didnt see in Harper, yet rowan gets the monster push

 

The cards were announced for night 1&2 of Wrestle Kingdom. Some really great stuff in there.

Ligers final match will be a tag match with him and Naoki Sano!! vs Takahashi and Dragon Lee

Probably his hair

 

It's pretty terrible that this wasn't on TV, wtf?

 

Yes, AEW hopefully has reached the point where they realize they can't do things online and assume everyone knows about it.

Like, Hangman is no longer in the Elite and that's barely been acknowledged.

 

fuckin florida man

 

How is Florida still a state? Can we downgrade it?

 

Sami

 

Get him.

Getting to see Sami jawing with and being a dick to the largely dipshit southern audience was far and away my favorite part of being at Starrcade.

 

Batista to the HOF lol

And NWO

 

So Shane Mercer is a goddamn mad man.
