Over on NXT Auska is 169-0. I don't know if there's anybody in NXT that can beat her.

 

[Wheels]

At leaast Braun beat Roman's ass before jobbing to a door.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Roman losing clean is surprising.

Braun will be checking into Suplex City very soon.

Over on NXT Auska is 169-0. I don't know if there's anybody in NXT that can beat her.

She just might vacate the title after the upcoming NXT Takeover and come up to the main roster after Backlash.

She will need a manager when she comes up as her English is not great.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Booker T's glare into the camera after the House of Horrors was the funniest thing I've ever seen in wrestling.

 

[Dr. Evil]

Tom Phillips made the List of Jericho!

She will need a manager when she comes up as her English is not great.

It doesn't matter, her actions in the ring will speak louder than her words.

Trump appoints Vince Russo as chief of border wall to ensure nobody gets over.

US President Donald Trump announced this morning that his preposterous plan to build a wall along the Mexican border will be led by professional wrestling “booker” Vince Russo, thus ensuring no one can get over.

“Believe me, nobody prevents people from getting over better than Russo,” Trump said during a White House press briefing attended by Fox News, Brietbart, Alex Jones, and a sentient banana.

“Russo will make sure no Mexicools, Guerreros, or other luchadors can get over here.”

When asked by reporters how he intends to prevent anyone from getting over, he replied: “Bro, bro bro — bro brobro, bro brobrobro, bro.”

After a thoughtful pause, Russo added: “Bro.”

According to leaked documents, Russo will begin tightening Mexican border controls by mandating that all newcomers to the U.S. compete in “Immigration Papers on a Pole” matches.

Roman losing clean is surprising.

Braun will be checking into Suplex City very soon.

Maybe they're giving him time off to grieve his brother.

I gotta say, I'm sure Roman is made of the right stuff and is tough mentally, but it's uncomfortable for me to know what he's gone through recently and listen to the crowd absolutely crap on him.

Some thoughts on Payback:

- Loved the heel turn by Sheamus/Cesaro. If more, I loved how Sheamus was so proud of her partner for finally "coming to the dark side".

- Alexa winning the title so soon on RAW was a bit surprising, but she's more entertaining than Bayley, so I'll allow it. I think an Bliss/Banks feud will be very entertaining.

- The Wyatt/Orton Haunted House fight, while bizarre, was relatively entertaining.

- I have to say, Jinder is growing on me as a title contender. All he really needs is a high profile win (in a quality match, of course) and I think he can change alot of opinions on him.

- I have nothing against Roman Reigns, but it's a right of passage for a WWE superstar to turn heel when the reaction dictates it. I think that is part of what irks people about him. He's just being give his natural career progression.

- Sorry, but it still annoys the crap out of me that RAW's main title wasn't defended on their PPV. Down right foolish.

All in all it was actually a pretty decent show. Not great, but decent:

-The Hardy's vs. Shesaro was good.

-KO vs. Jericho was good, and with a surprising finish to boot.

-Neville vs. Aries was really good, although I didn't much like the finish (I'm just not a fan of how WWE uses countouts and DQ's in-general).

-Alexa vs. Bayley was pretty good, but again didn't like the finish. It was super-predictable (another performer loses in their hometown, what a freaking surprise. Didn't see that coming at all Vince). And boy am I not looking forward to yet another Alexa title reign already (seriously she's had like three in less than a year on the main roster), especially if it delays Sasha's heel turn even more.

-The HOH match was about as stupid as I expected it to be. But at least Bray got to win, so that's something I guess.

-Joe vs. Rollins was alright, but Joe is hardly living up to his "destroyer" moniker right now.

-Roman vs. Braun was great, and Braun looked like a total badass by the end. Hopefully they capitalize on this and actually do something cool with him moving forward.

I totally forgot about the Joe/Rollins match.

Why do people want Sasha Banks to turn heel? It's not like their is a face on RAW capable of keeping up with her. Sorry, but Bayley is boring as hell.

 

[Loki882]

Because Sasha is really good at being a heel, and they've been setting it up for months. AND, she's being booked like crap right now as a babyface anyway.

Predictions for the next five WrestleMania locations after WM 34 from New Orleans:

- 2019 WrestleMania 35: US Bank Stadium, Minneapolis
- 2020 WrestleMania 36: Mercedes Benz Stadium, Atlanta
- 2021 WrestleMania 37: New Los Angeles Football Stadium, Los Angeles
- 2022 WrestleMania 38: New Las Vegas Football Stadium, Las Vegas
- 2023 WrestleMania 39: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami

Of course, by 2023, that NFL stadium in Miami will probably change it's name ten more times by then. That stadium has about as many names as Big Show has had face/heel turns.

So PW Insider is saying that Billy Corgan will buy the National Wrestling Alliance.

 

[Warhammer]

I am betting Sasha and Bayley will feud without the title after Bayley gets her rematch. But I would love to see a Sasha/Alexa feud. The amount of sass in those promos will be unbelievable.

 

[X Knight]

so, both Jericho and KO and the US title are on Smackdown?

Is the Intercontinental title on RAW? Who's the IC?

 

[SpideyVille]

Yes, Jericho is now officially on SD, as is KO.

The IC belt is on Raw, and Dean is the champ.

No, I feel Sasha will go after that bimbo, Alexa, snatch the title from her, then, that's when the Bayley/Sasha feud will begin.
