Rowand44 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 QUOTE (The Critic @ Aug 17, 2016 -> 08:23 PM) Del Rio and Paige both slapped with 30 day wellness violations. I have to wonder if they did this to protest being drafted to separate brands. Take a substance, get a month off together. Seems possible to me. I wouldn't even be surprised if they're both trying to get released at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 The most shocking thing is that it took this long for Del Rio to get popped for something. He's obviously on something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 These NXT shows the day before WWE PPVs just make main roster booking look bad. They slowly build these match ups in old school ways and it works while main roster rushes everything. I get they have monthly shows and may have to rush stuff but it still doesn't work more often then not because it's short booking. I think you can set up things months down the road while doing short stuff but they just don't. The tag match and women's matches last night were so good and I legit thought Joe had his jaw broke.

GGajewski18 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Great 1st match. Owens was fantastic per usual. Enzo was fantastic on the mic per usual too. Great start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 That Styles/Cena match was just amazing. Great fricken match. WWE doing the right thing and putting over Styles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Just wanted to pipe in somewhere that the decision to have Aj Styles go over Cena cleanly in a great match at SS 2016 was excellent. There were many times during the match where I said "oh f***, here's the end for AJ", most notably when he went for the forearm punch at the end ( I thought he'd jump right into a cena finisher move). Excellent decision and I will give WWE that credit! To put AJ over cena 2-0 in 1on1's is a very smart move for both AJ and Cena. Now AJ can move on to Championship, and Cena can continue to have high level fights that get the crowd going. With that being said, the problem with these matches is they are much too finisher heavy. Great match, but the pattern is too basic these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) As far as Charlotte vs. Sasha outcome, I am okay with this. I was okay with having either women winning. The women's division is ripe with great competitors. Just waiting for Bayley to come in and complete the women's revolution .

iWiN4PreP Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Could be a big day for Bullet Club with AJ STyles, Gallows& Anderson, and Finn wins. I think Gallows and Anderson are ripe for Tag Team Championships now with New day being down a member, it's time for a title change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Multiple drug suspensions are coming out tomorrow. I imagine Sasha is on that list, hence why she dropped the belt.

Dirt sheets were talking about it. Sounds like it was people in feuds unlike Eva/Paige/ADR, hence why they're waiting until after Summerslam. This also just came out http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/746113-sas...raw-live-events So yeah Sasha is either hurt or getting suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWiN4PreP Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 From a once-in-a-while watcher of WWE product, seeing Ambrose vs. Ziggler for WWE title is, uh, kind of boring. As much as I dig the Zig, Ambrose in any match is boring to me. This is likely due to the Wrestlemania effect where I had such high hopes for Ambrose vs. Lesnar and it failed so devastatingly.

iWiN4PreP Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Ah, so they put the universal title before the US championship and Lesnar vs Ortan fights.... weird.. likely using the US Championship match as the filler in between the two big fights.
