Once the fiend drops the belt, Corbin should get the belt form whoever takes it from the fiend.

His mic game is on point.

He’s got a mid 2000s Edge vibe as the ultimate opportunist.

Swing and a miss.

What he's got is "get off my TV"/X-Pac heat. You may have heard of it as "go away heat". Neither of those things are good.

he’s big. Athletic and his mic skills are at the top of the wwe class. He’s played the king role exactly how it should be played by a heel king (chair included). He can carry this as a heel king.

WWE Creative Meeting:

"I don't know. Sasha and Bayley might be able to get over too well as heels. How can we make sure it fails?"

"Put them in a program with Lacey Evans."

"Yup. That should do it. "

Big night of returns. Sheamus, the Usos, and John Morrison.

Go ahead and book it. New Day vs Usos vs Miz/Morrison at WM in some insane match

I wish they’d do more special matches at mania. This has ladder match written all over it.

The womens roster is flat out not deep enough to have split brands.

If Sasha doesn’t win the rumble I will maintain that bayley should fight either bazler (if wwe does the correct thing and does asuka/flair at mania) or ripely (fun non Title bout).

Because bayley/Lacey or bayley/Dana brook at mania just doesn’t work

Please please please please please be giving us Heel Miz back!

When my hand goes up, your mouth goes shut!

Wait, which town just renamed itself after King Corbin?!

All hail the king!

amazing news for superstar with real talent...unlike botchy Lynch.

Pretty bad botch tonight with reigns hitting Corbin with the garbage can with the ref staring right at them and not getting a DQ

It's not Becky's fault Ronda couldn't get her own shoulders down. But yeah, let's blame Becky for Ronda's incompetence.

If rousey ever comes back wwe should lean into the fact that it wasn’t a 3 count, aka the exact opposite of how wcw handled starrcade 97.

Maybe there is hope for heel Bayley yet.

Naomi is someone the fans will care about. Unlike boring ass Lacey Evans. If Lacey could have made the fans give a shit about her, they wouldn't have had to drag her kid into the storyline.

Naomi won't need cheap heat to get the fans caring about her.

411MANIA | UPDATE: The Revival Reportedly Turned Down $700,000-Plus Offer From WWE

Damn. $700,000 and they reject it. They really must loathe it there.

i think that’s slightly above average for the roster. I thought I read the average pay is north of 500k

 

[The Q]

Why is this feud still on going?

I believe it was around the same as what Gallows and Anderson got. 700k a year is nothing to sneeze at at all, so it shows to me that they are probably counting down the days at this point and just hoping not to get hurt again by the time their contracts run out.

So you have this big return for Naomi and a huge segment between her and Bayley only to have Carmella win the Fatal Four Way?

And the logic behind that is....

that Naomi May actually have a shot to win the belt?

no title is changing hands before mania.

the 1997 bs they pulled on Bret (and then laughably backtracked during The steel cage match) is long gone

If they give her the title shot at Wrestlemania.
