Bray Wyatt needed to win, so the comparison between the two programs ends there to be honest. I think I know how the club's story will unfold....it's going to be AJ losing to John Cena at MITB. Finn Balor taking over "the club" renaming it Balor Club saying that AJ is too old and can't get the job done. This will drag out until Summerslam possibly even Hell In The Cell.

Russelrules44 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 I wouldn't say they are "old men" to be honest. Gallows is 32 (1 year older than Roman Reigns) and Anderson is 36 (3 years younger than John Cena and AJ Styles). I think they're actually extremely good at what they're doing. No nonsense, beat the hell out of people and leave the BS to other superstars. A bad ass team with no bells and whistles. I do think AJ needs to win the match with Cena or that's 4 PPV defeats on the bounce for AJ, and even if he has made a name elsewhere, in the minds of the WWE fans, it just says he can't cut it in their "Universe". AJ I'm sure doesn't care though as he's making enough for his family - and as he has said that is why he's wrestling. I'd say interest in AJ from the WWE fans will be close to zero if he loses to Cena. I think Styles will win at least one match with Cena on the first try (be it clean or by shenanigans) but ultimately lose the feud, (if it goes on for more than one PPV, which i'm sure it will) preferably because of Finn Balor. And then we'll probably move on to that feud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Smackdown was the "A" show this week. Zayn & Ambrose vs Owens & ADR was a classic tag match. Zaynbrose = chemistry. Styles vs Kofi was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 That Rollins vs Reigns (teaser?) segment was awkward. Just bad. I get that they're Reigns silent, but a fully silent segment is just weird, at least the way this one was delivered. They seem to be setting up the RAW vs SD! thing again for sure, and these could be exciting days. I hope the next WWE game has the theme again. It had its best days during the SD vs RAW era (barring the pre-E games obviously). I also think the AJ vs Cena feud will go the way it went against Jericho, and not the way it went against "the guy". I even have a sparkle of hope he'll come out on top, but I'm quite naive so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 <p>I wonder if Brock is really popping the ratings/buyrates, selling enough merch and creating enough mainstream buzz online to justify his huge contract with WWE.</p><p> </p><p> With his moveset basically consisting of Suplex City, F5, knee strikes and the odd submission he's getting a bit stale.

packerman120 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Alright, okay, he still is under contract. But if he's fighting at UFC 200, surely he isn't wrestling at SummerSlam. Unless he absolutely dominates his fight, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackman Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Nice to see WWE opening up for this. There is always the risk he's going to get beaten up, in which case he obviously won't be in Summerslam in any form or shape. But likely they will give him a can instead of a big fight just for his appearance (that can save this "supercard"). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
