Also Heyman might turn on him. Also Seth is technically supposed to be the #1 contender cause Sonya said only Edge is ahead of him. Man, at this rate Roman is gonna show up on Dynamite to pick up 2 or 3 more enemies.

This whole thing was weird. Charlotte's argument is just "your character kinda sucks and you used to be a better character" and Alexa's response is "yeah your writing and booking are bad too" and then it ends. I guess it's meant to be like they're shooting on each other but the truth they're acknowledging is that their characters both suck so no one is actually invested in any of this

I mean Christ they even point out that Charlotte is just copying someone else's gimmick and then oops actually Alexa is too! Seems like something that maybe your 50 million writers could do something about!

I mean Survivor Series being brand vs brand gives them an easy booking path of having Big E beat Roman cause it would be non title and you can make Big E look strong and set up a program next year where Roman could still go over but both would be main eventers but WWE gotta WWE

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

I know Roman has lost matches, but has he ever been made to look weak, or a goof in his WWE tenure?

Edit: Here's an unrelated thing that is a big reason why I don't now, and never have liked Roman Reigns. He's no fun. There's no reason to smile whilst watching him. Even as a monster babyface, he was always "grr arrgh I am angry serious boi", or at best the silent stoic badarse standing in the back.

What made me think of this was thinking back to Southpaw Regional Wrestling. Which was all fun, all smiles. And Roman was notable by his absence. Even from series 2, which had wrestlers begging to be able to join in to piss about with their friends and have some fun. But not Roman. None of that frivolity or levity for him.

Wow I never saw the tv side of the bracket. I like how Shawn and The Undertaker are in the same tournament as Doink, Duke Droese, a 1995 King Kong Bundy, and Mantaur. You'd never see a main eventer in a kotr tourney these days, it'd be 7 guys from Main Event (or a bunch of tag guys who have havent won a single's match the whole year) with a midcard heel as the monster threat 8th guy. It's kinda funny how, hierarchy-wise, if it wasn't for Ricochet's US title reign he'd be on the same tier as Doink and Duke Droese

It was pretty neat, lots of big meat was bumped. All 3 guys landed spears, and Big E didn't land on his neck when he did his through the ropes. I want a Lashley/Edge/Big E/Roman/Goldberg/Rhyno six-way with a spot where all of them spear at once, but Rhyno wins cause all the spears cancel each other out but a gore isn't a spear. Big E and Lashley arent on the Extreme Rules card though so not too sure what this was a go-home main event for.

Roman beat him twice, in the first and last match of the night. Big E didn't get pinned but he ended the show staring at the arena lights.

If it's any consolation, Big E is undefeated against Raw wrestlers.
