How does that shit work now? I know they not cutting no more. :lol:

No point in turning heel. He's essentially a heel now.

He might've had the shit in his hair. The blood was coming out around his hair line. Either that, or he had the shit in his wrist band, which would explain why it was blood all over his arm. I'd have to see it again.
 
Too much F5's. Stone Cold touched on this once, where one hits multiple finishers and the opponents still kicks out. Three should be the most.

MAn and I'd say 2 but 3 on a Wrestlemania type program. How does he eat 5 of them and still lose? This booking is terrible.

My silly ass thought it was real. Then I see him leave the ring.......no more blood.
 
I think he got cut with the elbows, similar to how Brock did Orton on Summerslam a few years ago.

I thought I saw an open cut on his hair line.
 
From the WWE Rumor Mill: Bobby Lashley reportedly in New Orleans

latest

The heart of the matter

Wrestlingnews.co has reported that they've been told Bobby Lashley is flying into New Orleans this weekend with a view to begin his return to the WWE at some point during this weekend.

We are told that Bobby Lashley is flying into New Orleans this weekend. He might be there already and being hidden or he is being flown in at the last minute to avoid being seen by fans but either way, he is expected to be in town and he is not booked to do anything at WrestleCon or elsewhere. However, he is expected to return to WWE as soon as this weekend.
The current online speculation seems to suggest that although Lashley could be Braun Strowman's mystery partner, or take part in the Andre the Giant Battle Royal, it's more likely that he'll appear on Monday Night Raw.

Damn shame that a pretty good Mania ended on that match. I love Brock's character, but the title needs to be on tv every week. It just does.
But I guess they're holding Brock off for Strowman in a proper one on one match.
I will say that I wish Sasha and Bayley had their match today. The PPV was like seven hours long! It started Sunday afternoon and ended on a different day. :lol:
They could have made room for a quick 10 minute match for Sasha.
 
Has Joe been cleared to return to the ring action yet ?
Also when exactly does Lesnar's contract expires ?

Honestly, the WWE Universe isn't going to like putting the belt on him from nowhere any better. It's gotta be Joe now that Braun has the tag titles.

I can see a potential plot twist coming tomorrow where Braun is not allowed to hold the tag belts by himself and trades them in for a title shot tomorrow night
 
I hope they signed Brock up again. I like Brock with the title, it actually makes his championship matches feel important when he shows up.

The top title shouldn't be on TV weekly, it loses its importance if it is.

That's why the WWE Championship doesn't seem that special anymore. The Universal title surpassed it, because it's on Raw and it is hardly defended.

That's an interesting POV. I disagree but interesting. I think titles not going to any and everyone makes them special. When they give it to someone just to bring attention to something like the Jinder and India stuff then I value it less. Rather watch you work hard, get over with the fans and improve as a wrestler all around instead of politics deciding it.

I see your point of view but I have to respectfully disagree there. I think that not having the title on tv regularly is hurting the value of the belt and the overall story.

Braun and Roman are going to start seeming lost in the shuffle, because they should be feuding over the title at the top of the card. But they can't fully do that since Brock has the title and only shows up for the big 4 PPVs. So they have to find 'busy work' for top guys for most of the year.

For everyone who hated how Braun killed the entire Raw tag division, Brock holding the title is why they did that. They have to give Strowman busy work until they're done with Lesnar.

And this isn't remotely a knock against Lesnar. I love his beast character. He can still have his 4 big money matches each year. He just needs to do it without the title.

I actually feel the opposite. His matches at this point don't feel important at all. It feels like a chore. Watch 5 punches...watch him hit the F5....then match over.

WWE Championship doens't even feel like a real title. Feels like a gimmick title.

I agree with all of this. I don't understand why he has to have the title. He can still dominate those 4 matches he does......he doesn't have to do it with the title though.

I think WWE think have the title on Brock brings legitimacy to the company with his background in the UFC. The majority of their audience are more than a casual fan. Casuals aren't buying the network. Most of their audience are tired of Brock and his half ass in ring performance.

They just being misinformed and ignorant. Ronda and Brock are big enough celebrities that will bring legitimacy to their product without having the title.

I'm so disappointed by that Brock match. I don't even know what story they were trying to tell. Brock has had better matches with guys less over than Roman. It really makes no sense how they booked that.
