Pretend to be shocked but (potential SD spoiler for tonight):

All the scoopsters in the know are apparently reporting Charlotte is currently penciled in to beat Asuka for the title tonight

DarkstarIV posted:

Speaking of Charlotte, this company is never going to loving learn, per PWInsider:

PWInsider Elite is reporting that WWE is thinking of replacing Zelina Vega with Charlotte Flair in the Women's MITB match. Because of course they are, Charlotte shits up the joint and then gets rewarded.

It's why the Best/Worst thread is so weird. WWE has had some legitimately good matches, but no one watches it on here, so that thread is basically a list of AEW matches and then the two joshi superfans who exclusively watch that.

nothing's stopping people from posting matches worth watching in that thread, and the occasional wwe match does end up in there positively. it's just not a worthwhile product to follow all of every single week with how much other good wrestling is happening constantly

If you’re gonna have Priest win the briefcase, why not put the belt on Balor?That would actually be a story.
Now Balor gets to lose a feud to Priest over nothing and the Judgement Day ends on a fart.

Yeah, WWE has good matches. Most of Gunther's matches this year have been great and guy absolutely is up there for one of the best wrestlers working for either company.

Watching the men's MitB match. Kevin Dunn is an Art Criminal, he should be banned from this business for life (ignoring all the other terrible things about him.)

I could be enjoying this! But every time two men start trading forearms I have to see it from 19 different angles in quick succession.

The problem is that the WWE house style is just so dull and boring and there's usually only a handful of people who ever get to work outside of it, like Cody Rhodes or Walter and Dragonov

The WWE sometimes does have good matches but it's not worth sitting through the sevens hours of content they put out every week trying to find it (Raw + Smackdown + NXT + Main Event) when maybe 15~20ish minutes of that time is worth it, AT BEST.

I don't think you've gotten the memo. Wrestling isn't about the matches, it's about the storytelling. That's why all those other companies are irrelevant and lovely (lmao could you imagine watching a promotion from another country where the wrestlers are women??? loving weirdos) and WWE is pure quality

Women's MITB was real good. Show was OK on the whole.

Also I'm not sure how much juice that Charlotte unrecognizably replacing Zelina Vega rumor had given how many planned spots the latter was involved with

It's a miracle Ricochet even had enough power to do that with one leg based on already shaky ropes. Crazy that they even made it.

John Cena made a shocking return to WWE in London at WWE Money in the Bank. As was the case with several things on the show, WWE did very well at keeping it a secret, as it was kept very close to the vest, and almost no one knew that Cena would be there. He championed the idea of doing WrestleMania in London, something that Triple H didn’t seem prepared to follow up on after the show. We’ve learned a little bit more why.

WrestleMania is set for Philadelphia in 2024, and WWE is in the late stages of finalizing the 2025 WrestleMania city, which we’ve heard to be a city in the United States. The earliest a WrestleMania could hit London is 2026 unless something drastic happens, and WWE sources told us they don’t find it likely on the horizon. However, there was a survey taker near media day this week asking about what cities in the UK would be most convenient for a HYPOTHETICAL Royal Rumble or Summerslam in the area. Among those cities listed were London, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow. WrestleMania was not mentioned on that survey.

As of now, WWE higher ups tell Fightful that Cena was only set for this show and didn’t have upcoming programs planned. Though that can always change if his schedule frees up. WWE were very happy with how things went for his appearance.
