The KO / Strowman match was legit. I hate the ending spot though. As cool as launching KO from the top of the cage looks, it never makes sense when cage matches end that way.

" I'll teach you a lesson, by throwing you outside the ring so that you win the match." :confused:

I'm not asking for much beyond so basically wrestling psychology. Now it could have been interesting if Strowman climbed down and claim victory because KO's feet never technically touched the ground.

Solid and entertaining match nevertheless. Hope we get to see these two headline Mania one day.

So on a dual branded PPV, when the universal title has been off TV for so long that I legit can't remember what it looks, the WWE title match still doesn't headline.

st%2Csmall%2C215x235-pad%2C210x230%2Cf8f8f8.lite-1u1.jpg

As clear as day:

Smackdown = WWE Title picture = AJ, Rusev, Nakamura, DB = indie darlings who got themselves over pretty much without Vince

Raw = WH Title picture = Brock, Roman, Braun, Bobby = Vince projects who he always wanted over

Vince values the WH title (the former WCW one) picture more than the WWE one, but yet, refused to ever put that same WWE title (the original one, the one that's now the one Brock has) on Mark Henry or Booker T or even on Big E or Kofi right now. But for marketing reasons, they let Jinder Mahal hold it for 6 months.
 
Asuka match :hmm:

I'm getting tired of Asuka losing to lesser women. Why bring her just to have lose to Charlotte and Carmella. Also who are they saving AJ Styles for? Rusev and Nakamura should have beat him, they must be saving him for Daniel Bryan.
Ruining her
^^^ Agreed. :yes: Yeah, I totally do not get what the hell is going on with Asuka. :dunno:

She's got all the tools.... INSIDE of the ring. :yes:
But the thing that hurts her the most... OUTSIDE of the ring... (as far as marketability) is her inability to speak English.

Personally, I think this is why they keep making her lose to '2nd rate' chics, like Carmella (or whoever else). :rolleyes:

(Although I will say that Charlotte Flair is pretty damn good. :yes: She's definitely Top 5 of all the female talent in WWE, so Asuka losing to her every once in a while.... is not as bad as losing to Carmella, imo)

let's not beat around the Bush
she isn't white
she isn't blonde
and doesn't fit the traditional wwe mode

as long as their is this disconnect between nxt creative vs main roster creative the call-ups will die when they get to main roster

how is carmella and bliss more successful than bayley, sasha and Becky...the women that spearheaded the women's revolution. Bliss and Mela were complete afterthoughts on NXT. but all of sudden they carry the division? Dont give me they connect or are good heels...they got opportunities others dont get. The only one of the 4 horsewomen that has prolonged success is Charlotte (white, blonde, legacy)

where is samoa joe?
why is finn balor never in the main event?
why isn't big E main eventing?
why are there no women storylines that dont involve a white, blonde, not so great wrestler?
why is 205 live so much better now?

I could go on

why didn't kakumara beat AJ?
why mela and bliss win the 1st 2 mib matches?
why didn't sasha and bayley have a blowoff match at extreme rules?
why is mela/Ellsworth and Charlotte the only ppl ready for asuka?
what is amber moon doing...arguably the most athletic woman on the roster
what happens to velveteen Dream, street prophets and Belair when they get called up

Well put. :yes: I don't disagree with anything you wrote. Good job.
 
so my titus' accounts Hogan gave a half assed apology where he apologized for getting caught?

during his apology tour didn't seem that contrite

I dont have a problem with him being reinstated to the HOF but I think the wwe is misguided if they think some return tour or wwe special is a good look.

Vince is probably completely behind it. Vince is too tone death to not see the back lash from naming the women's tournament after Mae Young. I honestly can't say that Hulk doesn't have a place in the HOF. He was my idol as a kid. I don't mind him being reinstated and putting his matches back on the network. But don't put him on Raw or Smackdown saying how sorry he is. The piece of shit that Hogad is said be careful what you say because cameras and technology are all around.

how tone deaf could he be
so If I follow his logic, its not what he said, it's that he got caught saying it?

That's CAC logic for you.

"I meant what I said, I just didn't want you to hear it because it might fuck my image up, which in turn, would fuck up my money. If I had known I was being recorded, I wouldn't have said how I really felt about black people dating my family."

And of course Vince "give every non-white wrestler a stereotypical gimmick" McMahon would be on board with such an "apology." He'd probably would say the same type of shit if he got caught up in some shit like that, and I'm sure some of ya'll favorite CAC HOFs feel the same way Hogan does.
