TLC advertising is out, and the main event is currently The Shield vs Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre, and Dolph Ziggler.

Keep in mind that TLC is in December. :psyduck:

I mean, they basically did this last year and it was kinda incredible, but repeating the match from the Kangaroo Rumble seems kinda lame.

Reminder: The only time WWE puts forth actual effort into the product is Wrestlemania season. And even then they manage to completely gently caress it up on the show itself.

Bad booking can at least be entertaining if they do it poorly enough. Like Roman Reigns going over Strowman very cleanly.

Small swing in one market, and that's the Smackdown Women's Title (courtesy of 5dimes). Charlotte is only at -130 now, Becky is at +100.

Also Nia Jax is backstage at Hell in a Cell. :geno:

5dimes is showing Becky in that match -150 to +120 right now.

Do you know of any other good betting sites?

People actually bet money. Generally industry insiders or people in the company.

You can look at any Kambi powered sites as well, like 888bet.

I dunno if you are betting against Becky winning, but that means she'll win the match. If anyone gets DQed or counted out, it would be Charlotte.

Yeah basic betting odds only tell you who will win. Not HOW they win. They gotta drag this feud on for several more months until people are sick of it. Just like the AJ/Nakamura feud. :v:

Apparently the plan going forward with regards for the Universal Title is Roman vs Brock vs Braun in a triple threat match at the Saudi Arabia show (in early November). Which is expected to be announced tonight. That's according to POST Wrestling.

It was never going to be a one time thing. Once per year yeah, but apparently the Saudis want to pay for more shows per year, so WWE is happy to oblige. Unfortunately.

They paid WWE far too much money over the course of the next decade for just a one-time thing. We're getting one or two shows there every year until nearly 2030

If they announce the match on Raw, then it is almost assuredly being aired on the Network.

The Saudi show is legit the funniest show to ever exist. It's such a microcosm of global capitalism and it should be studied by people for years. Seeing bored Saudi princes in giant leather chairs ignore the show is amazing.
