WWF/WWE/ECW/WCW

I think it was to curtail the predictability of the WWE product. In fact the whole PPV on Sunday seemed to be like that.

Which only means that Jericho will predictably drop the title at the first Smackdown PPV. Please tell me it won't be to Borin' Corbin.

No, he lost tonight to KO and got beat down and I'm sure it's to send him on his way for now.

Must be a short tour for Fozzy.  I figured they'd take they title off Jericho since he'd be gone for at least 6 months.

I'm thinking now KO will feud with AJ for the US title but what a loss of momentum for the both of them to both be champion of their then respective brands and now to be feuding for a secondary title which hasn't been relevant for years. They need to bring in a TV title to be defended on a weekly basis like the NWA did but I only say that cuz the NWA World Television Championship is my all-time favorite belt.

I knew they would be writing Jericho off soon cuz of Fozzy didnt they just release a new album?

I cant stand Kevin Owens so I hope AJ kicks his ass and takes his wallet

That was one thing I liked about Cena being the IC champion.  He did the open challenge thing every week and defended it against random guys.  I used to like the TV title belt because it made a good stepping stone belt for new guys by giving them exposure on TV every week.

Seriously though, good luck to him.  I'm sure his body is a wreck after wrestling for so long.  Enjoy your retirement UT.

Goofy Dean Ambrose can be kind of tiring, but I thought he was pretty funny when he said to Balor, "For God's sake man, eat a carb!" Balor is impressive but could stand to put on a pound or two.

I agree on Alexa, I've been impressed with her more than the other new divas.

I have no problem with the Hardy Boyz except with some of Jeff's outside problems. Size difference doesn't bother me... to a point. Mainly because I've seen plenty of big guys get their asses handed to them by smaller ones.

At this point, I can't take anything with Bray seriously. I've gotten my hopes up before just for creative to throw another swerve. I feel the same way about Rusev, when he comes back I have no delusions of him getting booked properly. Though at least he doesn't have to worry about being fed to Roman again. Bray on the other hand...

As far as the three hour RAW, I watch a condensed Hulu version which cuts it in half (and I don't miss anything they leave off).

Not much to say about Smackdown, I kind of had it on as background. However, the chair on the throat spot Owens did to Jericho was pretty wicked.

I agree on the part-timer BS (Jericho is different because he just doesn't show up for one show every month or so, he's actually there for just about every episode that airs while he is there). They need to concentrate on booking their full time talent better.

OMG I laughed really hard at that. Im liking Ambrose or when he said there's 2 things the fans like (one of them was seeing the Miz getting his ass kicked)

See Wyatt run (video in link):

Boo hiss.

Super Roman dominating Strowman on Raw. Puleeeeze... gimme a break. This is exactly the kind of crap that makes fans hate Reigns.

RAW was really dull last night, I didn't even get online to check if anybody was posting since it was so dull.

They kind of had no choice this time:

Well at least that "helps" explain what happened but I'm still not convinced Creative wouldn't have done the same thing even with out a Strowman injury. 

This is "The Roman Reigns Show" we're talking about here after all...

PS. WWE sucks all over right now. One good match... and maybe one good laugh a show ???

NXT, Smackdown and RAW ... have to delete a lot my hard drive. now I think..
maybe the "good" episodes the past 2 years are flukes.
Just almost done with watching ANY wrestling. joey Ryan on youtube is great, but with Shimmer being like 20 volume dvd's behind the current schedule, I think I have l lost most interest in even buying another dvd from them.

I now watch old dvd's / vhs tapes,and download what I am missing from wwf /wcw from the 1990's-2001. MUCH more entertaining !

Orton is pissing some people off:

http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/839161-randy-orton-takes-shot-at-former-wwe-superstar-sorry-to-the-indy-marks

It was totally a jerk move by Orton. He couldn't even handle boot camp so why bag on dudes wiling to tough it out on the indy scene.

On a side note, is anybody else so sick of the "this is awesome" chants? I never liked 'em but I understood them so I used to tolerate 'em.

I liked those chants at first but now they're overused IMO. I think it's because the WWE product is so weak most of the time that fans just get into something interesting for a change. I'm also not convinced that WWE doesn't flash signs off-camera telling fans to chant that.

BTW, the Cardinals are off today so I'll most likely be here for Raw if anyone is interested.

It kills me that when Angle comes out to his theme on RAW people still chant "You suck" on the beat. I've done the same thing for years when I would watch my St. Louis Rams. I'd hum the Angle theme going "We suck" just like the fans do. But that was years ago in the WWE Universe. Yet they still do it. That cracks me up.

Big deal; new players, same old Raw crap.

Raw GM/authority figure comes out to announce an "x-man miscellaneous match" then each "x" comes down to the ring to stake their claim as the winner of said match.

Yawn.

"Mrs. Toho" got blasted with a kendo stick from Alexa Bliss.

I'm barely at that spot now. So far RAW has sucked.

Sasha lost clean to Foxy? Is she not in good graces anymore?

Extreme hopscotch...

Some guy in the crowd said Bayley should be him. Eww! What's with Alexa just giving her one hit? But it was still nice to see.
