Wonder if that means we'll get to see old TNA ppvs on the WWE network soon.

It will probably take a year before you see them. Editing, transferring every thing to the right servers, so on and so forth
 
So who is meant to be the heel in this WWE World Championship feud?

AJ is labelled as the heel but Dean Ambrose is definitely acting like the bigger 🤬.

Not really a bad thing but it is confusing me.
 
So Goldberg on ESPN achieved nothing in the way of knowing if he's returning or not. We're basically back to square one in that regard.

Also, the TNA owner has been revealed, it's Billy Corgan who is renaming it into a completely new company. And it's still believed that WWE has bought the TNA video library.

That will interesting to see how that all works out.
 
Probably have TNA (or whatever it'll be called) events be streamed on the WWE Network instead of relying on Pop.

WWE was open to other promotions bringing talent to the Cruiserweight Classic. So I don't think it's unlikely.
 
So the pay-per-views are coming thick and fast since the Brand Extension, and there is another one tonight, its Smackdown's No Marcy and here is the card.

Kick-Off Show

Baron Corbin v Jack Swagger

-------------------------------------------------

Carmella v Nikki Bella

Curt Hawkins returns.

Smackdown Tag Team Championship

Heath Slater & Rhyno (c) v The Usos

Randy Orton v Bray Wyatt

Smackdown Women's Championship
Becky Lynch (c) v Alexa Bliss

Intercontinental Championship-Career v Title Match
The Miz (c) v Dolph Ziggler

WWE World Championship-Triple Threat Match
AJ Styles (c) v John Cena v Dean Ambrose

First off, rumours swirling around the news sites that Becky Lynch is injured, its an undisclosed injury and we don't know how or when she did it and the match has been pulled, however it hasn't been announced by the WWE yet so the match stays on this post.

Other than that the card looks good, Bray Wyatt badly needs a win tonight, his character has been dying for a long time now and i cant take him seriously at all, if he loses then the character is done. no idea what'll happen in the career v title match as Ziggler's contract might be expiring soon, either that or the triple threat match should be MOTN.
 
According to the facebook page, the WWE World Title will actually start the PPV.

I don't mind, as I was more interested in Miz vs. Ziggler and the WWE World Title picture right now IMO, is the most least interesting thing about Smackdown.

Correct. Most likely due to the political debate that's on at the same time.
 
Looks like the show will end with Ziggler getting an emotional send-off from the fans, he will lose, it will happen trust me!

Probably will go to tna or roh like Cody did.
 
I read that they want to transition him into a backstage producer...
 
Now I'm disappointed that the Mark Remark doesn't do Smackdown PPVs, having the IC Title in the last match which LK has completely ignored as a running gag would've been great comedy material.
 
The absence of Lynch makes it a perfect time to bring Eva Marie back.
 
Well, I think WWE had no mercy (ha) upon the production values, promo videos for big matches were being shown all over the place and then came the Bliss match... I must ask, what in the hell was that? I shouldn't be too bothered about not spoiling anything because it was a nothing match, but just to be sure;

Alexia fights Naomi, and loses to a roll-up following a cross armbreaker.

Ok...? What was the point of that? Not to mention the broacast malfunctioned really badly at one and looked like Bray Wyatt decided to play the PPV in a picture-in-picture format. Fantastic TNA-esque quality! :lol:

Ah, speaking of Bray... count that match in the "times Randy Orton disappointed in a modern WWE PPV" list. So far, Orton did a whole lot of nothing in several hyped PPV matches. Is this WWE's way of welcoming him back? I found the Tag Title match more entertaining that Mr. Orton's match, which shouldn't usually happen with a Heath Slater match...
 
The whole show was strange, from putting the main event on first, i understand the why they made the decision but to start the show with a match of that magnitude was bizarre and it affected the rest of the show, to having the number one contender to a title lose so easily.

The triple threat title match was predictably a good if not great match but the finish was a little questionable, i thought Cena put in a great shift in that match and he took the pin so he deserves some credit for that, there was a pretty big drop in the middle of the card where we had about three matches in a row which no-one really cared about and the crowd went really quiet, then come the match of the night by a long way!, possibly one of the matches of the year!.

Everything about it was superb, from the Wrestling to the storytelling and i think the finish surprised a lot of people, it was such a great moment too even though Dolph has won the IC a few times before you could tell this definitely meant something, both him and Miz have gone up in my estimation for the work they did last night and in the last month or so.👍

After that i went to bed, i felt that we have seen the best that the show would have had to offer and it wasn't worth staying up any longer to see the rest of it, i most definitely have not have done that if the main event WAS the main event, i watched the rest this morning, the Bliss-Naomi finish just didn't make any sense, and whilst Bray did win like he should've done he won with help, and that taints it for me, also Luke Harper is actually on the Raw roster and not SD....

Man that show was weird!!
 
Paige has been suspended for 60 days following a second violation of the wellness policy.
 
Yeah apparently she took prescription painkillers whilst she is waiting for surgery on her neck, suspension is pointless anyway because she is out for the forseeable due to her injury, hope she is OK mentally with all this and she comes back soon, she is still only 24!
 
Massive news on Raw tonight, I expected it after learning Heyman would be on Raw but:
Goldberg is back!!!

Tree'd
 
Not surprising given WWE 2K17 was coming out just a couple hours after.
 
Big news regarding HIAC too with the Women's title match now being inside the Cell, making it the first ever Hell In A Cell Women's match, which makes it three HIAC matches on that show rather than the usual two, plus Cruiserweight title match has been added.

Enjoyed Raw overall, thought the main event between Rollins and Jericho was great 👍
 
Smackdown was good enjoyable show.

Though I do think they're hyping up to Survivor Series too early. I mean the invitation to Raw is cool but should really be sidetracked with hyping up Survivor Series when they have they have Hell in a Cell to hype?
 
I really liked the AJ/Ambrose/Ellsworth bit, good for James Ellsworth! :lol:
 
So, NXT just did their tapings to set up their next Takeover special and
Mickie James is challenging for the NXT Womens Championship. 2006 me loves this news. Also, Roderick Strong debuts.

Wait, that Mickie James? That takes me by surprise. I heard nothing about her coming back. I knew about Roderick Strong though. Wow.

She was listed as a Free Agent on the WWE website, but it was so long ago I forgot about it. Good to see her back though.
 
Cathy Kelly is bae....
