I look forward to the traditional "MitB holder loses clean and decisively early in the show before cashing in after the title match"

Mostly because I think they'll have Carmella cash in on the SD women's champ at the PPV, so Corbin might not be until the Tuesday.

Two separate sources claiming Corbin's cash-in got the big axe and he was made a fool because he attacked that military guy on Twitter, then pussied out and looked like an idiot. Word got back to Vince who was furious that Corbin got himself into that in the first place. He wants to go in an entirely different direction now. The first source made this claim before the show even went on the air and also claimed tentatively that the direction is Jinder staying the course until Survivor Series. Editing in one source's place of work so that I don't get attacked by people who are angry for no reason. Please don't harass to find out who it is specifically.

That makes the most sense somehow, him getting into it with other wrestlers and even Meltzer while dumb I doubt is anything they care too much about. But Vince comes off as such a TroopsCountryFlag guy that I'd believe it

Also I don't think Corbin understands the lines you're allowed to cross when heeling on Twitter. "You're just jealous of me and how good my life is" is something you can get away with saying, but "nothing you've done in your life has meaning" isn't, especially if you're going to be putting random audience members on blast.

Was/is a tease for Dunne/Neville at Takeover. Depends if Dunne gets cleared: https://twitter.com/PeteDunneYxB/status/897273737594130432 The last two Takeover Booklyn shows had 6 matches. 2017 has 5 matches currently. Adam Cole's faction of ex-ROH guys is set to debut in an angle that will be a big talking point and a very strong launch.

Big heel factions are a big risk even before you factor in the added problems an Invasion Angle brings. Good an opportunity as any to turn Roddy once Drew wins the strap

An RoH invasion angle would be a great idea because then all of the guys could line up single file to receive their kicks to the face from Aleister Black.

I'm saying ROH hasn't been exactly setting the world on fire lately and I doubt a bunch of ROH guys joining together just because they were all in ROH would be very exciting. Sounds like a faction for faction's sake which, okay I guess, but with NXT getting a little floundery it seems like it'd be smarter to just have some individually developed storylines and also have lio rush no sell being pile driven through a table from 40 feet up.

I've been re-watching the CZW/ROH feud and when faction warfare is done really well it's some of the most exciting wrestling in decades, but once again, they've had a brand split for ages and haven't made the first attempt to make a feud between the brands exciting, and they've also been given a golden goose like Nexus and managed to kill excitement for it almost immediately too

RealFoxy posted:At the same time Triple H is such a fan of old school, has been looking for any excuse to do War Games for years now, and the faction warfare from a few years back involving SHIELD/Evolution/Wyatt Family were really good too. While I agree with you on the idea of invasions being awesome, the problem as I see it is that the people watching have to know who the hell the people in the faction ARE. NWO worked because everyone knew hall and nash and ultimately hogan. The Horsemen worked because everyone in the world knew flair, anderson, blanchard and dillon. To me, shield and the wyatts weren't really factions as much as freebird-rule tag teams. It's like calling New Day a faction. Anyway, people knew who they were too. Outside of a real small subset of viewers, who the hell are going to know some ROH guys and indie workers? Sure, a higher percentage of NXT fans will know them, but I can't imagine it'd be enough to actually field an effective faction for an invasion angle.

Is it actually an ROH invasion thing though, or just putting together 3 guys who some fans will know were in ROH?

It could very easily be bad given WWE and all, but it would have to be Vince-level bad booking to be awful with Cole, Fish and O'Reilly. All three of those guys can work their asses off and Cole and Fish can already talk better than just about anyone in NXT. I get all the skepticism given Sanity and what not, but these guys are so far beyond anyone in Sanity. If Hunter's WarGames boner ends with Cole/O'Reilly/Fish/Dijak against Strong/Itami/Ohno/Black at Mania or something like that I will flip the gently caress out.
