WWE Speculation • Page 199

Smackdown has been absolute dog shit ever since it moved to Smackdown

 

It’s not even WWE’s B-show

 

By booking, SD is absolutely the A-Show. Goldberg appeared there. Cena is returning there. Roman is there, etc.

But much in the way SD was the B-show but was way more watchable than RAW ever was, that seems to have flipped after the move to FOX

 

That seems like a lot of changes lol

Fiend/Cena at mania maybe?

Roman/Goldberg definitely seems likely now. That could be a fun match but I don’t wanna see the title in it :(

 

Roman beating Goldberg in a fairly quick match and then beating The Fiend at Summerslam would work way better than him beating The Fiend at WM.

Honestly, I think the smartest move would be Roman/Cena in a passing of the torch, and Fiend/Goldberg II after a Saudi no finish.

 

Isn't there a rumor of trips and goldberg doing something?

 

Yeah I definitely get more enjoyment out of raw than Smackdown. At the least I’m more interested in some of the people there than Smackdown

 

Goldberg and Taker will both be in Winnipeg tonight. No idea if they will be used on RAW though..

 

Maybe starting the Taker/Styles build tonight?

 

I think they advertised Taker for tonight so he should be on TV

 

oh god, just saw a comment that contains the darkest timeline

John cena fights goldberg at wm and becomes 17 time champ. Next smackdown Lesnar beats cena after losing to drew. That way everyone is unhappy.

 

Would be so stupid not to get roman cena at summerslam for the title but yep, would be classic vince

 

This is whats advertised for RAW when they are in DC in two weeks

Edge live to give a medical update on his condition!

2020 Royal Rumble Match Winner Drew McIntyre vs Randy Orton!

The Street Profits vs Seth Rollins & Murphy w/The AOP!
~ Tag Team Championship Match ~

RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch and
2020 Royal Rumble Winner Charlotte Flair
vs WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions The Kabuki Warriors!

Plus, Special Appearance Shayna Baszler!

That Lynch/Flair v Kabuki match seems like an old placeholder, but the rest would seem to indicate that the Rollins + disciples v KO + friends feud is gonna be never ending. And that edge will be back on TV then!

 

Edge is going to retire again isn’t he?

 

Supposedly taker was at raw last night to jump on the charter to Saudi. Gonna start his feud with AJ there.

 

PWinsider is reporting Matt Hardy was offered a role at NXT. Thinks he’ll take it.

it’s not clear if it would be on screen or not, but I imagine it would be

 

Meltzer reporting Goldberg/Reigns and Cena/Bray as new mania matches.


I think that's a couple of great moves but also makes you wonder what they are going to do with the belt today.

 

Bray winning and losing the belt at the Saudi shows would be pretty hilarious. Hard to imagine a stupider way to botch his character than not even make his major title matches happen on shows that matter

 

Told ya lol

 

tell me Drew beats Brock at Mania right now

 

Lol got nothing for ya there but knowing WWE, I doubt it.

 

damn

 

TBH Cena/Bray is cooler than Roman/Bray. And Roman going over Goldberg for the title is kinda cool I guess. idk. If you wanna set those up, have Cena give Goldberg the assist. That way Bray still looks strong in the loss and now you've setup Bray vs Cena. And if Cena didn't want to work the Saudi show, don't put the belt on Goldberg at the Saudi show... doesn't seem that hard to get right

 

This really is Jeri-KO + Brock/Goldberg all over again. One is a 6+ month character build with nuance that makes sense for the title, the other is a short, spectacle match that can pop a crowd and be fun, but cant carry the weight of a title.

I should have enjoyed Brock/Goldberg because it was actually smartly booked (shock start, shock follow-up, great tease for the WM match start), but then Goldberg took the title and its the worst thing they've done to their roster until today.
