Yowie Wowie! Bray Wyatt was amazing!



I can't help feeling a little bit bad for Finn Balor, but someone had to be sacrificed to push The Fiend.
 
AEW has signed one of the most violent wrestlers of all time. :nervous:



I can't help feeling a little bit bad for Finn Balor, but someone had to be sacrificed to push The Fiend.

If the rumor is true and he is taking a break, I think it was actually a good choice. Now Bray can go on tormenting people until Finn comes back as the demon to avenge his loss and end the Fiend's reign of terror.

At least, that seems to be the logical path, but it's WWE so expect him to get squashed by some legend.

Edit: King of the Ring returns next week!

Edit 2: SASHA IS BACK!!!!! And as a heel!

Hmmm the implications are a bit worrying cinsidering the injury that retired Shibata but still like him murderizing people.

Also, Ibushi win the 2019 G1 Climax, earning a shot at the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 14, which will run two days on January 4th and 5th. Only confirmation so far is the retirement match of Jushin Liger.

Shibata! I still haven't invested in NJPW World, but they did cut to him during the KENTA-Ibushi match back in Dallas, so I assumed there was something tying him to one or both of them, one of the best matches of the night to me as well.

KENTA to BC makes some sense, I was kinda expecting Suzuki-Gun but it fits, especially if he usurps Jay White. Shibata though...he's been teaching at one of the Dojo's (L.A. I think) and he looks great...but I'm worried that he's gonna come back and end up crippling or killing himself...but my god, the impact he has! Almost everyone who gets that flying turnbuckle stomp has that two second moment of "what was that?" blank face. Gods, I miss Shibata. Goto and Ishii are good, but...it's Shibata!
 
Well worth checking out the Reigns-Murphy match from Smackdown if you haven't seen it, fantastic match. McIntyre v Alexandra on Raw was a great match too.

That Claymore bro... it was brutal. I hope McIntyre wins at King of the Ring.

They really need to get Shane off TV asap. All this storyline is doing is bringing down those involved. :yuck:

That pipebomb gave me and a lot of people a lot of hope... but this just keeps going on and on and on...

Shane is absolutely unwatchable.

It's a shame too since WWE is doing quite a few things at the moment that give me hope they are turning a corner when it comes to storylines, but than they keep on with things like tired authority angles and it makes me doubt whether they can keep the momentum going.
 
Here is the King of the Ring bracket.

I see quite a bit of potential here as long as they give the matches time and resist the urge to overbook them. My money is on either Andrade or Drew winning it.
 
KO will be in the final so Shane'o can screw him out of it. It can't be helped.

If that was the plan I dont think they would have him facing Elias in round 1. I wouldn't rule out Shane costing him that match though.
 
I'll go for Andrade to win King Of The Ring tonight.

Sasha Banks will be guest on Jerry Lawlor's King Court tonight too.
 
It's also rumored that NXT's move to USA will be announced tonight. If it's true, I really hope they don't change it too much.
 
I heard it will be a two hour show and will go up against AEW's weekly show.
 
That second hour is going to be massive for them, there is so much great talent on NXT that isn't on TV on a weekly basis because its only been a one hour show.

I think generally that this is a good positive step to take.
 
Hopefully this means it's transitioning into a full-fledged third brand and we won't have the issue with wrestler's "moving up" like we do now.
 
So Roman Reigns attacker is a middle-aged man who looks like Rowan....

Also those predictions you guys had about Shane screwing Kevin Owens out of the KOFTR, well it happened last night in round one!

Also also, Buddy Murphy had another great match, this time with Daniel Bryan, and this time he won!
 
Jon Moxley is out of the AEW PPV, an infection in his elbow has reared its head again. Omega is set to go against PAC instead.
 
Ugh. I hate seeing McIntyre being used as a mere jobber. He deserves so much better.

Also, I don't know if it's just me, but the 24/7 thing is getting boring.
 
Seth Rollins will face Braun Strowman at Clash Of Champions for Seth's Universal title, and that's after they defend their Raw tag titles against Ziggler and Bobby Roode who won a 8 team tag team turmoil match to become number one contenders.

Ricochet and Baron Corbin both progressed in the KOFTR, Corbin beat Miz who really needs to turn heel quick as he is going nowhere right now.
 
Seems Rowan was somewhat responsible for the attacks on Roman Reigns after new footage emerged of him walking away from the forklift incident wearing dark clothes and a hoodie, Daniel Bryan wen a bit mad and slapped Rowan a few times then headed down to the ring where he was speared by Reigns, this is by far the worst thing on WWE right now and I wish it would stop.

Ali and Chad Gable both advanced in the KOTR.

Drake Maverick won back the 24/7 title.
 
So apparently there's a possiblity of Enzo and Cass returning to NXT.

I, for one, can see the feedback being totally positive and will not in any way be controversial if it comes to pass.
 
NXT UK Takeover Cardiff is on Saturday, as is AEW All Out, but they don't clash as the Takeover is on earlier.

This years PW Insider Top 500 has been announced. Here is the top ten.

1. Seth Rollins
2. Daniel Bryan
3. AJ Styles
4. Kofi Kingston
5. Okada
6. Jonny Gargano
7. Roman Reigns
8. Kenny Omega
9. Tanahashi
10. Will Ospreay
