I wanted to start a discussion on why i think Cm Punk needs to Main event Wrestlemania 41 night 2 , i feel like its only fair to have him close out the show of shows, whats your take on it guys?

I think the storyline was a good idea but they have went to far now making him go in a cage and letting rhea beat him up when he can't do nothing back which I find a bit unfair. I know I said that rhea and Dom should have a match but that was a joke.

I really think that rhea and Dom are both allowed to find each other equally or the both shouldn't fight each other. I never liked Dom but I feel sad for him getting battered by rhea every week and he can't do anything about it and I have started to dislike rhea because she's just getting annoying now. Idk if this is what they were trying to go for if they did they have done a really good job.

I know there are not enough matches for cena in his retirement tour that we all would love to see happen. There’s too many names to count we would love to see. However for me AJ and cena had unreal chemistry in the ring, as well as their promos. Even if it was a heavily promoted TV match, I would enjoy seeing these two run it back once more.

What about you?

I don't know if this is a Hot Take or not and we know we love how Triple H is handling WWE ever since Vince went away, but Triple H has ruined the tag team division on both Raw and Smackdown. He's fed the World Tag Team Titles to the Judgement Day's Finn Balor and JD McDonagh who barely defend the titles, and he's fed the WWE Tag Team Championships to the Bloodline's Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa(who only got the title because Jacob Fatu surrendered it.) And The Bloodline aren't doing anything special with the titles. At least the Usos made it special when they were in the Bloodline. He's even ruined it on NXT. Nathan Frazier and Axiom were arguing with the whole breakup kf the will they or won't they, and it was way too soon for Ridge Holland to turn heel as they used the titles to break up the tag team of Andre Chase and Holland.

Bluedust vs Goldust: [-**]

Bob Holly vs Al Snow: [**1/2]

Mideon vs Big Boss Man: [-***]

Jeff Jarrett & Owen Hart vs D-Lo Brown & Mark Henry: [*3/4]

Ken Shamrock vs Val Venis: [*3/4]

Chyna & Kane vs D-Generation X (Triple H & X-Pac): [**3/4]

Mankind vs The Rock: [***1/2]

Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Mr McMahon: [***]

side notes

• That opening video package was ART! One of the best they ever did imo

• Opener was short but borderline unwatchable

• Hardcore match was some fun but nothing to write home about

• Mideon vs Bossman was so boring, I almost fell asleep watching

• Tag match was meh,the angle itself was uninteresting so why would the match be any different ?

• Special guest referee is a handy device for a personal feud,and it worked here,although the match didn’t pick up until Shamrock lost it with special guest referee Billy Gunn

• Chyna and Kane vs DX was fairly decent,although I definitely prefer the combination of HHH and Shawn Michaels rather than HHH and X-Pac

• Last man standing match was the best of the night, although the crowd hated the finish

• Cage match was good, although dragged at times, I prefer the cage design we have now over the black bar one though. Also had the debut of Paul “Big Show” Wight.

Here is the last minute match card and result prediction:

1. Nia Jax (c) v/s Bayley v/s Tiffany's Statton's potential MITB cashin
2. Damien Priest v/s Finn Balor
3. WWE Women's World Champ: Liv Morgan (c) v/s Rhea Ripley w/ Dominick Mysterio suspended above the ring in a shark cage
4. Tag Team Match: Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns v/s The Bloodline (Solo Sikoa & Jacob Fatu) (with Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa)
5. Main Event: CM Punk v/s Drew McIntyre

Explanation:

1. Looks like this is the last time we will see this match happening. It's been 2 months, and we are tired of seeing Bayley and Jax's feud with Tiff trying to confuse the audience by teasing a cash-in of MITB, when in reality, she never ends up cashing in. If I had to make a prediction, I would say that when Bayley and Jax are down, Tiff comes in and officially cashes in the MITB briefcase. Then Tiff capitalizes on Jax and pins her to finally win the WWE Women's Championship. The reason I say Tiffany Stratton will win is because there was a tense backstage segment between Jax and Stratton, which led to her turning on Jax for upcoming event.
2. It would have been much nicer if they made this a gimmick match, letting Priest wear an "Archer of Infamy" costume while allowing Finn Balor to come as "The Demon King." Both wrestler's character sounds intense whether it's an original character or their alt ego. One of the way other both wrestler would have still give heck of a match with only Priest coming on the top. However, WWE didn't go route because of their time are pretty tight which lead them booking straight up regular single match. Either way I predict Priest winning.
3. It would have been much nicer if WWE went with the idea that the winner between Rhea vs. Liv gains custody of Dominick Mysterio. This way, when Rhea wins, she would have gained custody of Mysterio, while Liv would be moaning and trying to file a frivolous lawsuit against the Terror Twins (Ripley & Priest), which they would obviously lose. However, WWE decided to scrap the original idea we speculated on and instead plan for a Liv (c) vs. Rhea match for the Women's World Championship, with Dominick Mysterio being suspended during the match. Mysterio will try to throw brass knuckles to help Liv, but Ripley catches them just in time, capitalizes on Liv, and finally wins back the title she never lost. As for post-match predictions, the feud between the Terror Twins (Priest, Ripley) and Judgment Day (Balor, Morgan, Dom, Carlito, McDonough) will continue, as Balor and Morgan demand a rematch. This leads the Terror Twins to question Dom's loyalty to Judgment Day. After further investigation, Judgment Day discovers that Dom intentionally threw the brass knuckles towards Ripley instead of Morgan, which leads to Dom being booted from Judgment Day. This leaves Balor, Morgan, Dom, Carlito, and McDonough as part of Judgment Day. In the following week, Judgment Day attacks Mysterio 4-on-1, and the Terror Twins, along with a returning Rey Mysterio, come to the rescue, thus reuniting Rey and Dominick Mysterio. This will ultimately lead to a match between Team Judgment Day (Balor, Morgan, Carlito, and McDonough) vs. Team Terror Twins (Priest, Ripley, Rey, and Dominick). Another member may be added to each team, potentially making it a 10-man Survivor Series match, but I will discuss that later as we get closer to the PPV.
4. Since ‘big dog’ Roman Reigns is on Cody’s side I do see Cody and Roman wins this tag team match against Solo and Jacob Fatu. I don’t think Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa concerns me, as Orton and Owens will take care of them. After Cody and Roman wins, there will be showdown between them where Roman is pointing towards Cody’s WWE title hinting that he wants to face Cody for the rematch in near future especially after Cody gets by few other opponents aside from Bloodline when defending his title
5. Oo damn, Drew is getting even more cockier and overconfident with bragging about how he has bracelet named 'dog Larry X wife AJ' bracelet. This lead Punk to challenge Drew for strap match, to have him realize that his overconfidence and cockiness will get best of him, which will ultimately happen. Unless Seth Rollins interferes, I'd say CM Punk win this strap match against Mcintyre fair & square to make them 1-1. It's bad enough that Drew has been wearing a bracelet referring to Punk's wife and dog. Now, Drew crossed the line by breaking the bracelet and putting it in Punk's mouth. I swear Punk will do something about it and make Drew pay if things go badly in the match. Remember, Punk said, "McIntyre has to kill him to defeat him." Punk will use all resources, including weapons, to beat Drew senseless. If Drew refuses to back down and tries to get the upper hand on Punk, he might get outside help from an unknown person. Rumors suggest that person is AJ Lee. When asked about returning to WWE, especially for HIAC in Punk’s corner, she replied, "never say never." But who knows, she’s probably messing with the audience and could surprise us at the end of the match. While the chances of AJ making an in-ring return are slim, I think it’s more likely we’ll see Wyatt6 or even his old pal Wade Barrett interfere to cost McIntyre. The reason for Wade Barrett's interference is because McIntyre has been disrespectful toward him. However, I don't see that happening since WWE views Barrett more as a corporate figure. In this case, I’m leaning toward Wyatt6 interfering to help Punk gain the upper hand over McIntyre. Also, after dealing with McIntyre, Punk will likely focus on Gunther for the World Heavyweight Title.

So by now I'm sure everyone has seen the Pat McAfee show thing with Cody "so I heard the big guys coming back this week" meaning that someone is likely returning on Smackdown or at Bad Blood, with that said who we think he is? My vote is on The Rock or possibly Jimmy with "Tyne big Guy" being used to throw us off.

Some matches during covid like the swamp fight and firefly fun house match are really overhated. They weren't real "matches" but they were still cool. The Randy vs Alexa match sucked but not all cinematic matches are bad.

#WWE SmackSown...err, SmackDown

AJ Styles returns

The Phenomenal One is set to return to Friday Night SmackDown after months away from the blue brand. Styles hasn’t been seen since falling to Randy Orton in a King of The Ring Qualifying Match, and the former WWE Champion is is ready to return. Don’t miss Styles live on Friday at 8/7 C on USA.

Is there a streaming service that is airing raw and smackdown the day after they air like Hulu did? I’ve heard Peacock is supposed to be the place, but they are still over a month out when it comes to episodes. So do I just have to resort to YouTube highlights if I somehow miss an episode live?

I say this because rheas the best wrestler in the women's division so they should have a brawl to settle the beef. But it was just an idea it may be stupid because it a boy Vs girl match but I would pay to watch it.

I wanna watch Bad Blood but can’t catch it when it’s live. Does Peacock post them right away or anything, how can I go about this. Any help would be greatly appreciated

For years, maybe even decades, we've heard that WWE is on the lookout for the "next Rey Mysterio" - a Luchador so over they'll sell tonnes of merchandise like masks, millions of different figures, shirts etc etc etc

We've seen so many attempts at this point, with Sin Cara, Kalisto and Dragon Lee all being earmarked as "The next Rey Mysterio" but it never materializes as WWE never really seem to get behind them.

I personally dont understand why there is always the focus on just one Luchador, while everyone else gets unmasked. Andrade, Ricochet, Santos Escobar were all unmasked before debuting in WWE. The Mexicools were unmasked before debuting, which never made sense to me.

Mysterio got over I think because he was allowed to get over in the Cruiserweight division first, but obviously they've killed that division, brought it back, relegated it to NXT then killed it again. Lucha House party were made into a joke.

Apparently Penta and Fenix are on their way, but will they be used properly?

My questions really are..

Do you think WWE is to blame for not being able to create their "next Rey Mysterio"?

Is Mysterio just so good they'll never replicate him? Should they even be trying?

Should they ever have been focusing on just one since Luchador star?

Have they already had that guy and fumbled him? (Sin Cara 1, Sin Cara 2, Kalisto, one of the Mexicools, Ultimo Dragon, one of the Lucha House Party?)

Is that guy currently on the roster, or on the horizon? (Dragon Lee, Axiom, Penta, Fenix)

Or is there someone else out there in the industry they should be headhunting? (Current Mistico, Dralistico, Hologram, Mortos, Luchasaurus. Apologies my knowledge of the rosters in Mexico isn't great)

What do you think?

If Tiffany does not cash in at bad blood when do see her cash in do you think she cashes at the road to mania

Question for anyone who has gone I see the tour is in Orlando and then Miami. We bought tickets for Orlando a month or so ago before I saw they were also coming to Miami closer to home. Will this likely be the same performers back to back nights? The promo pics both have Cody, LA knight, Nia - but I don’t want to do both if it’s the same thing again.

There is a new line of WWE Action Figures being released in stores for the promotion of RAW on Netflix and the boxes have a new RAW logo! You guys think this is the official RAW logo when it debuts on Netflix??

Does anyone know when the encore is available to steam on Peacock? Is it usually after the press conference stream?

Would things have turned out better on the long run?

What’s the best app to buy WWE tickets on? I am going on Oct 21st but wanna get the best deal!!

Why do they insist on practically telling us someone is returning? Recent example Seth Rollins. But there are many others.

I keep hearing how cody rhodes is gonna bring back the winged eagle design, but I believe its better left as a memory of that era. Bringing it back won't give the title the same feel it had back then. The memory people have of that title is connected to who they were at that time and the stories and characters that based around it. You can bring back the design but it won't bring back that feeling.

Their are a few repeats due to special title designs, as always these are all my personal opinion! Pls don't flame me too much please 🥺
