Joe beat Nakamura for the NXT title. WWE shouldn't have vets in their mid 30's spending too much time in NXT. All it takes is one injury. Look at Finn for instance.Kenta/Hideo Itomi has been injured for most of his run in NXT.

I agree. They seem to want it both ways with NXT. They have a brand that's looks to become the alternative to the main stage that is Raw/SmackDown. They have their own Indy promotion with the option of Raw/SmackDown. Pretty smart. One of the many drawbacks is injuries and gimmicks that Don't translate in a bigger setting. Also that the the ceiling of Raw just won't go away.

It used to be that Cena is the end all be all and everyone came second to him if HHH wasn't in the picture. But that's really not the case now. It's really that the titles have been so devalued that becoming champ doesn't really mean anything. AJ is rehabilitating the SmackDown title. Miz was coming off great but for some reason Ziggler is there sucking all of the fun out of Miz's work. Thankfully they got it off him. They're more concerned with New Day setting the record more than good feuds. But I'm okay with them getting that merch paper. They deserve it. They ruined the US title giving it to Del Rio with it ending up on Reigns. And we know the deal with him. Rusev didn't deserve to be treating like a buffoon for Reigns and the for Goldberg. And that's not nearly all of the issues. I don't know what the fuck they are doing with Orton/Bray. And this Kevin Owens things was dead when HHH interfered.

And to cap it off, it's still the McMahon show. And even worse now, the Stephine show. Nobody asked for that shit. The bitch just like hearing her voice. I wonder how many women have been on the WWE creative team since Steph was on it.
 
I listen to or watch the Going In Raw podcast. Look for Steve and Larson on YouTube. They do a post Raw and Smackdown show with other content like the Friday dirt sheet news show and a top 10 countdown on weekends. There the same two guys from Machinima's top 10 gaming countdown.

Or you can try the Wrestling Inc podcast directly after Raw with Matt Morgan and two other guys.

I like Steve and Larson. JDFROMNY206 on youtube is pretty good
 
SS should be interesting tonight. With the IC title situation and Smackdown needs more midcard talent. Wouldn't surprise me if Dolph interferes in the match to keep the title on Smackdown for his rematch. The cruiserweight match is tricky since the 205 show will appear after Smackdown. Gallows and Anderson said that they will screw over Raw so that's already decided. No reason for Goldberg going over. Rusev should interfere to keep Bill looking strong.
 
Goldberg injured himself on Raw so I predict this will be a clusterfuck. They are in Canada and the fans havent forgotten that he is the reason Bret Hart's career ended.

It's the main event. I hope not. TDOT is gonna get in their ass if they pull that 5 minutes before they do a move shit like last time.
 
Shane's head bounced off that mat. AJ Styles took a bad looking bump off the top rope. This match has been full of painful looking bumps.
 
WWE should not have put Goldberg over Lesnar again:smh:. If they meet at Mania Lesnar better win.
Man Bill HAS to be injured. I mean it's good booking.

BUT after booking Brock like a beast and ending the streak they could have built up someone else to conquer Brock.
 
I think they did the right thing.

It would've been a waste to have Goldberg return just to lose or get squashed or to have these two trade punches and 5 move-sets for 20 minutes.

They needed to show that Brock can be bullied, too. And who better to fill that role than Goldberg?

Then they can hype the rematch by saying Brock half-assed it thinking Goldberg was too old and been away for too long and now he's going to take it seriously. Show him training for the rematch. Maybe have him fight another big guy, like the big dude with the beard, have Brock squash him before the Goldberg rematch to make Brock look more focused.

Then they have the rematch be more of a back and forth battle.

I'd like that better than doing that opposite. Having Goldberg lose Match 1, then build up the rematch with Goldberg trying to improve to beat Brock, they kinda did that already with Taker and Cena.
