Not a horrible ppv but they announced the King of the Ring is coming back and that is all I care about. I hope Cesaro wins since they lost the tag titles last night.

Was an above average ppv, imo. Not great. Not sure what they're going to do with KOTR. Tournament tonight and final tomorrow? Not sure what the point is to just have one match? Hopefully they give it to someone who needs it. And even then, hopefully they do something with them.

King Sheamus II. Just watch them ruin it with that big dumb oaf...again.
Neville would be great but no way would they do that. I'd be okay with Ziggler or Barrett but you watch, it'll be dumbass Sheamus. I guess I should be happy Rybread isn't in the KOTR.

I'm thinking either Ziggler or Barrett. I would imagine Ziggler would get some retribution on Sheamus though.

I hope they don't stick the bullshit King gimmick on whoever wins. King Booker was entertaining, King Sheamus was bullshit.
I've seen speculation that it might lead to something with the IC title considering Bryan's going to be out for a month or so, but there's absolutely nothing to support that. I think that it being for the IC title would make the tournament worthwhile for more than just being a historical PPV-type deal. Hopefully they give us all the details on it tonight.
I wonder if this will lead to more one-off wrestling specials like the KOTR finals on the Network. This is the sort of shit they should always churn out, and KOTR should definitely become a yearly thing again.

I think King Stardust could be pretty entertaining.

Seems we wont be getting King Stardust...
I could care less if Sheamus wins again, i like him better as a heel but he's terrible when he tries to get heat from the crowd.
Ziggler keeps on jobbing, great...

And Ambrose is out as well. King Barrett. Not that I have any problem with it. Just way too many screw jobs. No way Sheamus is winning. Neville would be nice. But, I don't see that happening at all.
Billy Howerdel fanboy
Neville vs Barrett is the final I'm predicting. With Barrett going over.
Active Member
Sheamus is getting screwed either way. Just a matter of when. It'd be good for Neville to make the finals. He's been jobbing alot. But he's been getting a good rub. Enough that losing isn't really hurting his momentum. I just hope that winning the KOTR actually does something for Barrett. And if it does, hopefully he can avoid getting injured, again. He has the worst luck, aside from Daniel Bryan.

As much as I would love for King Neville to happen, I'm fine with it being Barrett to avenge his loss from Extreme Rules. As long as he starts winning matches afterward.
Imagine King Harper, though. I'm already laughing about it. He just come out with this dirty-ass thrift store king's robe and then immediately discards it, while changing absolutely nothing about his mannerisms. That's gold right there.
Active Member
I wonder if they will go with a king gimmick like King Booker. Could be interesting. It's not like Barrett has been doing the "bad news" lately anyway. Maybe they'll drop it and go with a king gimmick.

King Harper would be awesome, i like the guy but it seems he'll be just another "Snitsky" kind of guy...
I think Barrett will win and he deserves it too, its too soon for Neville (but i'm glad he's in it..) and Sheamus winning again doesn't make sense...

You know, I just thought of something. Every time Cena is in an "I Quit" match, he always win. It's as if he only puts his own ego on the line and nothing else as well as the belief to children that they should never give up. Even with this America never quits bullshit. It's obvious he'll beat Rusev but then what? Who is he going to bury next?
If there was going to be someone to face Cena in an "I Quit" match. That person shouldn't just try and beat Cena. That person should be everything including his entire career on the line to prove that he's got nothing to lose but his career and then dare Cena what will he put on the line if he wants to prove to everyone that he's not a quitter? Titles don't mean shit if he's carrying it. Besides, when was the last time that a win from Cena really meant anything to anyone?

Surprisingly good move, WWE. Fuck Sheamus.
Active Member
Not surprising at all, heh. Ziggler fucked up him though.
On a side note. For those who may not follow the Pumpkins thread, Billy Corgan is now a part of creative with TNA. This could be something great, or a massive mistake. Time will tell.
Member
So Billy Corgan is TNA's last hope. OK...
King Barrett.... that sounds nice.
Throbbing Member
Maybe Corgan will end up being super talented at writing good wrestling and move to wwe, and then the current wwe writers who were fired due to Billy taking over will re-re-form the pumpkins and make SP good again. Probably not, though. Anyone else need a beer?
Question, has anyone ever beat Cena in an I Quit match? Rusev as a whole is probably fucked after Payback.
Active Member
I don't think he has. Plus, it kind of goes against the whole "never give up" gimmick. If Rusev doesn't win, he's done. They're already planting the seeds on a split between him and Lana. That's another blow right there. She's more over than him, and that's a massive understatement. Things don't look good for him. Off to jobbing on Main Event and Superstars.
Member
It sucks that guys like Rusev and Bray Wyatt who both needed these big WrestleMania wins against Cena could've done more for their careers. Instead, Vince just wants to keep Cena winning so he won't lose his cash cow.
Throbbing Member
The King of the Ring was a nice change of pace. It's nice to watch matches that matter. It could have used a better build though, and maybe if it were stretched out longer with more entrants. King Barrett makes sense although I was pulling for Nevelle.... who has been looking great as of late.
Active Member
Glad they brought it back. Whole thing felt unceremonious though. Two matches were throwaway matches to forward an ongoing storyline. One of which was a semi-final match.. The reaction to Barrett winning seemed kinda dull as well. I'm all for them bringing it back again. But they need to execute it better next time.
Neville has gotten crazy over. Very happy that they're really using him to his strengths, and haven't watered him down at all. Would like to see him win more. But, these losses aren't really working against him yet. They continue to throw him into one big match to another, and he continues to kill it. Hopefully some really great things to go for him. And proof that not all NXT guys will get buried. Just keep him away from Cena.
