General WWE Discussion: Roman Weeps, Taker Retires, MNK/SAM/RDM LFP

[Anoat]

WCPW has announced they've canceled all future TV tapings due to YouTube's new advertising policy labeling pro wrestling as "Not friendly" and has cut their ad revenue dramatically because of it. Of course, WWE's shit doesn't get flagged, I'm sure.

this is so good lol. i don't visit /r/squaredcircle much but when I do i've always found it to be a terrific sub.

r/nba is probably my favorite overall sub (especially for the amazing shitposts in the off-season) but squaredcircle is definitely up there

how does money in the bank work when there is a brand split? do they do two matches or does MITB only belong to one brand?

AFAIK, it is a Smackdown PPV.


Unrelated, Bushi vs KUSHIDA was a really good match today. Desperado and Taguchi was pretty good. BOSJ is having a lot of quality matches this year.

Did anyone watch Mayu vs Kairi from the other week? It was really good.

[Melena]

The prior brand split it was a shared ppv and had two matches. Who knows how they are handling it now

[Tyrath]

Who knows how they are handling it now

Everyone does. It's a smackdown exclusive PPV.

[Xno Kappa]

Makes sense considering the universal champ is a part timer. Not much suspense for whoever is the MITB winner if the champ is never there.

I worked out decently when Rollins had it w/ Brock as champ.

Just remembered at one point early yesterday odds against THE MAHARAJA were 1:25. I thought to myself, "Just throw down a $5. Who cares?!" Why didn't I.....

Dude if I would've known I totally would've. I never think to check these things

Reminder that only 7 weeks ago our WWE Champion was getting made to look like Gronk's bitch in the WrestleMania pre-show.

[Kalmado]

They REALLY need to cut down Balor's entrance. Way too long.

You know RAW is terrible when theres only one comment

[NotGreyheim]

You know Raw is terrible when it's Monday.

[Delirium]

I don't even think Raw was terrible. It was neither good, nor bad. It was just there. Then again, I kinda feel that way about WWE in general lately.

Especially with what NJPW has put out since fall of last year. But in fairness, I'm talking strictly wrestling.

WWE Women's Tournament is being called The Mae Young Classic. Stupid name, Mae Young was a shitty person, and she wasn't even a big draw ever.

[Krandor]

At least they're not using Moolah

WWE has always done tourney's at least lately that honor departed people who were company yes men. Mae Young classic (look at how often when women are inducted into the wwe hof, they ALWAYS mention Mae and Moolah), Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, Andre the Giant memorial battle royal. Hell if it wasn't for some bad blood, the UK tourney could have easily been the Dynamite Kid or Bulldog classic.
