Re: The Official WWE Thread - Part 22

Ambrose is too good to be in the Wyatt Family. Shouldn't waste his time playing 2IC. The good thing about this Reigns/Ambrose bromance is they are treated like equals (for the most part).

Bray Wyatt isn't over enough to do a takeover storyline. He's no Undertaker and Ministry of Darkness. Harper is the real talent in the team. Can't believe they stopped his singles push.

[RealGunner]

Is that a joke?

[Tomwin Lannister]

Cracked me up about 2 months after their last fight, Brock was out and JBL aka Vince came up with a line about wondering who would possibly win between Big Show and Lesnar lmao


One bit was literally "Now th-aaaat is a match I would LUV to see maggle"

Yeah, we've seen it 25 times it's not really a mytery

Apparently there was a push within WWE at one point for Roman Reigns to be on the cover of the upcoming WWE 2K16 video game. However, there was a feeling that Steve Austin would mean more for the game when it came to promoting it, so they went with him.

We noted several weeks back that Rey Mysterio could possibly be headed back to WWE as he put feelers out and then that was confirmed by The Wrestling Observer Newsletter but it was noted that WWE wasn’t too interested.

Word is that Vince McMahon is a lot more resistant to Rey returning than Triple H is. However, it was Vince who didn’t want to let go of Rey in the first place. Rey is still trying to get on WWE’s good side in hopes of a return.

Because Rey wants to return due to Lucha Underground’s future being up in the air, Vince does not want talents to think they can come and go when other non-WWE plans don’t work out. Vince reportedly feels they could send a message to other top stars that want to leave, showing them that the “grass isn’t always greener on the other side.”


Triple H and Vince both know WWE needs a Mexican Superstar right now and Triple H is more open to bringing Rey back for that reason. It could be several months before they make a decision on whether or not they want to bring him back but perhaps he could be a nice addition to WrestleMania 32 in Texas.

How about they create a new latino star? It's amazing how much the WWE fails in creating non-white stars, let alone any stars. Who was the last decent black guy they had ? Booker T ? The last decent English guy ? i can only think of William Regal lol. And what happened to the times when we had decent Japanese wrestlers? hell we dont even have a decent Canadian wrestler and that's their second biggest market after the US.

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn are Canadian. They dropped the ball with Barrett, hopefully they don't do the same with Neville. Apollo Crews on NXT can be their big black wrestling star. He has the same look as Bobby Lashley but has 100x better wrestling skills.

[RealGunner]

Neville is a great wrestler. Unfortunately he is perhaps the worst mic worker in the roster. Can't see him climbing up unless he works with a manager.



A New Day is getting really popular. So there is that for now.

Looking forward to Hideo Kojima wrestle

Going by the current WWE logic, owens and zayn will never be at the level of Bret Heart or Jericho, let alone be in the main event. They will be just...there. Neville will probably get the Drew McIntyre treatment, or at best he'll be another Barret (so much wasted potential ffs). I haven't seen Appolo but i hope he gets somewhere.

[Onyx]

Shield reunion?

HHH/Kane turn on Rollins, Sheamus cashes in to become new WWEWHC and authority's main man.

BREAKING: Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, and a partner of their choosing will face The Wyatt Family at ‪#‎WWENOC‬!

[RealGunner]

Cena injured again apparently

mt update pls

[zizzle]

There were reports that John Cena was injured at the WWE live event on Friday night during a match with Kevin Owens. While it does appear he was hurt, PWInsider.com reports that Cena appeared to be fine backstage according to others in the building. It's being said that the injury wasn't serious and Cena isn't expected to miss any time as a result of the injury.


your hero is fine...sadly

[RealGunner]

Don't want to see Big show vs Seth Rollins pls

[M99]

So who will be the third partner for Reigns and Ambrose? Erick Rowan? Daniel Bryan? Samoa Joe?

[RealGunner]

I hope it's Bryan for the effect

Maybe some NXT guy?

Won't mind Cesaro either

Nah Bryan is too big to be wasted on a filler storyline imo.

[Onyx]

As noted, Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Braun Strowman will face Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and a mystery partner of their choosing at this month’s WWE Night of Champions pay-per-view.

In what could be a spoiler, multiple readers have e-mailed and tweeted us the following image that reportedly was briefly seen on the WWE website today. It shows NXT Superstar Baron Corbin as the mystery partner. Corbin has been one of the names expected for a call-up. This should be taken as a rumor until we can confirm the photo is real.

Hope Braun Strowman goes on a prime kane-esque route of being a monster heel. Destroy everything in his way


and I don't mean jobbers. But legit wrestlers like sheamus, bryan etc.

[Onyx]

Baron Corbin is basically the Reigns of NXT. Sucks at everything, but he's got da look so he comes out and squashes people every week.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Corbin lol, guy just has height going for him. He's like 6'8 but has what is the definition of a bang average build. If he's supposed to be able to overcome Strowman just cause he's on eye level then just lol.

[M99]

Corbin is a heel lol, what sense does it make to join Reigns and Ambrose? Samoa Joe carried him to a good match on Takeover, he should stay in development for a long time.
