The only problem with Rouseys promos is she talks way to fast because she's so amped up she needs
to learn pacing.

Speaking of promos HHH was money as always yesterday that's always been my favorite part about him is his promos.

Is SNL hurting that bad that those 2 guys are actual comedians on the show? and now we're stuck with them at WM?

The Rollins vs. Lesnar match has zero buzz literally nobody cares about it they should do this 6 man tag match at WM
instead and use all 6 guys in one match.

Other then that felt like a generic RAW patiently waiting for the Superstar shakeup next month so RAW can have
the face lift it desperately needs.

I just can't for the life of me figure out what the point of the whole thing was if it is a work.

I can't either. The only thing I can think of is they want to build this angle where it could be the Shield's last few appearances together?

I thought it was a work right as soon as they announced it, though. It just seemed really odd that they would announce that prior to his contract ending in the first place.

To get AEW's hopes up? :lol:
Kobe Bryant was asked who he feels is the toughest opponent to guard in the NBA. Instead of picking OKC's Kevin Durant, Bryant went with Portland’s Brandon Roy.

Damn imagine an amateur wrestling stable with Brock, The World's Greatest Tag Team, American Alpha, and Kurt as the manager.

Haven't followed much WWE lately but I love this idea of a heel stable, one bent on showing what good wrestling is. I'd love to see a team like Revival involved if they're heels but I don't believe they have the amateur background that aligns to your idea.

Also, i just happened to tune in to the Moment of Bliss segment. That was one of the flattest announcements ever. There was literally no reaction, what a waste. I love Bliss from when she showed up but this didn't come off well.

The Ambrose thing def seems like a work, what the end game is, no clue. They've killed the Shield. They broke them up too early, then they've gotten back together and broken up so many times. It's kind of dumb now.

Also, Roode is now just a tag-team guy?

Paul Heyman did a promo during the commercial break explaining Shelton Benjamin.
“Since you’d like to know Brock Lesnar, here’s someone who knows Brock Lesnar. Ladies and gentlemen, the assistant coach of Brock Lesnar, from the University of Minnesota -- a far better University than Penn State, I might add -- the training partner of Brock Lesnar when Brock Lesnar broke into WWE, the only man who was a steady tag team partner for Brock Lesnar anywhere on the face of the planet, I give to you the man that just handed Seth Rollins his own very tuchus, ladies and gentlemen, Shelton Benjamin.”

Aye WSS! Been a while!

And from your comment, I can tell last time you've watched Roode was in NXT.

Yeah I really like that stable, although I'm afraid it'll be similar to Ronda's schtick right now that she's above everyone cause she fought real fights.

Prolific career at Kent State. You could even take out Brock from this stable (since he's a part timer) and have Ziggler be the leader. If you could convince Brock about this stabel, him and Dolph together with Shelton, Gable, Jordan and Kurt as manager would be awesome.

I know you said Braun, but I'd love to see Brock wrestle real matches against a lot of the cruiserweights. Dude loves wrestling smaller guys and the cruiserweight division has so much talent.

Jack Gallagher versus Lesnar would be amazing, imo. And while he's not technically a cruiserweight, I'm pretty sure that Brock/Ricochet would be an instant classic, so long as Brock gave a sh*t.

I love how they said Black has business that he needs to take care of in his home town..... He's on his damn honeymoon with Zelina Vega. So perhaps no Andrade tomorrow on SmackDown.
