i dont think that's what they're doing but randy orton going on a rampage and beating up jinder and the boyz with weapons would be both in character and get a big pop

don't worry, I'm sure he'll drop the belt to Jinder in an angle that definitely won't be uncomfortably jingoistic

None of it appears to be smart money otherwise the odds would be way longer, but if the results hold, it should be an interesting night.

Currently:

Welcoming Committee -1,350
The Usos -600
Luke Harper -530
Kevin Owens -265
Jinder Mahal -210
Sami Zayn -190

Guessing that Jinder will win by DQ and MITB will have a triple threat b/w Jinder, Randy and Rusev

Ciampa came out on crutches, said he knew he was hurt before Takeover, knew he aggravated what he had, and refused to let Gargano replace him. Everyone's on notice when he comes back

STOP DOING HEROIN

quote:

Jeet Rama over Chris Silvio in the opening dark match of the evening.
Tyler Bate over Steve Cutler, possibly another dark match.
Tommaso Ciampa comes out on crutches and invites Johnny Gargano to the ring so he can explain things to him... but he’s not here. Ciampa continues, cutting a promo about how when he got hurt he vowed to fight on but became an afterthought in the eyes of the fans, who started dreaming up replacement partners for Johnny. (Turns out I was the problem the entire time, folks, my sincerest apologies!) When the match was over he knew he was hurt and going to go away to heal up, so in that moment he made the decision, because of the fans and because of Gargano, that if he had to go away, so did Johnny. Ciampa promises that when he returns, he’ll be the most dangerous man in pro wrestling.
Pete Dunne over Danny Burch. After the match, Peter cuts a promo about having to watch “some boy” carry what was rightfully his these last few months.
Cezar Bononi over Andrade “Cien” Almas.
Kassius Ohno & Roderick Strong vs. SAnitY (Alexander Wolfe & Eric Young). It’s unclear how the match ends but No Way Jose makes his return to help the babyfaces run SAnitY off!
Dana Warrior comes out to give an award to a local teacher for her charity work.
Heavy Machinery (Otis Dozovic & Tucker Knight) over Lars Sullivan & ???. Lars (formerly known as Dylan Miley) does the deal where he snaps and turns on his partner after the loss.
Peyton Royce over Sarah Logan, which is “Crazy” Mary Dobson’s new ringname.
Hideo Itami vs. Oney Lorcan ends in a no-contest when Itami refuses to finish Lorcan after three Go 2 Sleeps and Kassius Ohno runs down for the save, shoving Itami down.
Killian Dain over No Way Jose. Dain has a remix of SAnitY’s theme as a new theme song.
Roderick Strong comes down to cut a promo, talking about how it’s not Roddy vs. the World anymore, now it’s Roddy, Marina, and Troy vs. the world, and he’s coming for the NXT Championship.
This brings Bobby Roode down, mock crying. Roode says Roddy has a lot going for him— he’s winning matches (finally), he’s got a marginally hot fiancee, but he’ll have to earn a title shot. But really he should stay in his lane and not try to play the Bobby Roode lottery, because he’s just not man enough.
Drew McIntyre over Rob Ryzin.
Ember Moon over Peyton Royce.

Andrade losing to a guy who got squashed by Black :psyduck:

Also Itami heel turn confirmed

Knowing past spoilers, for all we know the entire face roster could've come down and beat up Almas before losing, and it would've just been summed up as "Almas lost to some schmuck"

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
A friend who knows a lot of Joshi personally just told me two more interesting names that were contacted for the Women's tournament, but probably won't attend. (They rhyme with Hiro and Mahada) for different reasons. I'd love to have seen bare minimum Makoto making it to NXT though, since her gimmick for the past 10 years has been "I want to be a WWE Diva).

Although no matter how big it is, just locking in Shirai, LaRae, and Hojo is pretty huge in itself, they're just as big as Ibushi/ZSJ/Tozawa were for the CWC

If I recall, Dave's said that Shirai won't be in the tournament, as she has yet to leave STARDOM, and the only indication she is getting ready to leave (per STARDOM officially) is her stepping down as head coach/trainer.

The great thing about the tournament is that it will finally give some legitimate competition to Asuka, her title run has been fine but it's almost entirely a lack of legitimate opponents over her just being a dominant type

That's more of a problem with them not building contenders credibly. Or even booking one of those 3 or 4-way matches to have one challenger pin another without her involved.
