sheamus and cesaro are theoretically still on smackdown, but the last time they were on tv it was on raw after wm

Buddy Murphy on SD.

205 Live losing two people to the other shows seems like a huge blow to their roster.

This is the Raw women's division now:

Active:

Alexa
Alicia
Dana
Lacey
Naomi
Natalya
Ruby
Sarah
Tamina

Sidelined:

Nia - Out for the forseeable future with an injury
Sasha - M.I.A.
Ronda - Gone for the rest of the year, if not permanently

The SD roster feels absolutely stacked now. I bet they end up moving some people back over.

Just got home, I was at the two shows at the bell center.

I think something happened on Monday, the pacing of the matches were odd, it was super boring after the Moment of Bliss segment, we just left with like one hour of show to go. It was the first time we ever did that. The crowd just didnt give a damn after a while and was dead for the rest of the night.

But Smackdown tonight fucking DOMINATED. Non stop action, really fun fights, there is basically nothing I can say against tonight's show.

Also it's kind of obvious that Owens' knees are not fully healed, he was having problems climbing stuff and seemed super hesistant. I have no idea if this showed this on camera but yeah, poor guy, I hope they didnt force him to come back.

The last segment with Vince was super badly received when fucking Elias showed up. People were singing "shut the fuck up" and "we dont give a fuck" in french so loud that it was impossible to hear what vince and elias were saying.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #6090 on:** April 17, 2019, 02:00:13 AM »

Man, that RAW women's division

But then that SD women's division

I honestly think the most depressing thing that happened in the entire shakeup is that not one of the midcard heel locus of suck on RAW (Corbin, McIntyre, Lashley) got drafted to SD. They need to split those fuckers up in the worst possible way, Vince is incapable of resisting the urge to play with them all together like a child with his favorite action figures, and individually they're all just kinda there and boring but when they get teamed up they become a Voltron of boredom, the lives crowds hate them together, the home audience hates them together, everyone but Vince and maybe their parents hates them together, we've suffered through like 6 months of this shit at this point, and it looks like we'll get god knows how many more.

edit: the second worst thing to happen is that they're apparently going to keep Ricochet and Black together as a tag team instead of separating them and giving each a singles push.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #6091 on:** April 17, 2019, 02:14:22 AM »

It looks like Heavy Machinery ended up on Smackdown, and as far as I can tell Nikki Cross didn't get assigned to either brand. They didn't split up any other IRL married couples and Killian Dain is still listed as a SD guy, so maybe she'll end up there? But tbh RAW could use her cause that division is shit now.

nachobro · « **Reply #6092 on:** April 17, 2019, 09:03:50 AM »

Well the UK show hasn't aired yet, that's why there's been no new additions shown there

205 seemed to lose two people (three if we count Itami leaving too) but only gained one so I dunno wtf is happening there. Also that was the first time I watched 205 in forever

Also there's some rumor about Alexander Wolfe not actually leaving the company but just going back to NXT, maybe he'll end up on the UK show

nachobro · « **Reply #6093 on:** April 17, 2019, 12:07:03 PM »

i forgot Ali was a 205 guy.

There really isn't a ton of folks left on that show. Tozawa, Nese, Kendrick, Lorcan, Mike Kanellis, Daivari...is Jack Gallagher still on there?

There was some intense weather to the point of there being tornado warnings for CT and southward happening that messed up some performer's travels so RAW was pretty heavily panic rewritten due to a bunch of people not being able to be there.

I like the idea of managers, but Asuka and Kairi Sane don't need one, and if they did, it shouldn't be Paige.

In fact, Paige should be no one's manager.

Trent Dole · « **Reply #6099 on:** April 18, 2019, 08:01:25 PM »

It was insane of them to put the title on him again honestly since he'd previously had to drop straps due to injury twice in a row. Probably what they had to do contractually to keep him from running off to RoH (at the time, now it'd arguably be AEW even though they haven't really launched TV etc yet) and getting a bunch of eyeballs on their product.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #6100 on:** April 19, 2019, 01:40:08 AM »

Well, he re-signed with the double double eee, so that's off the table. We got my favorite WWE match of last year (vs Bork at Survivor Series) and a top notch heel run for a couple months out of him. Hopefully he's ok and can hang out with his daughter and forget wrestling I guess.

bork · « **Reply #6101 on:** April 19, 2019, 07:55:44 AM »

Dirt sheet shit:

-Kushida's NXT TV debut is the 5/1 show.

-Lars Sullivan was moved to SmackDown Live to keep him off of the same brand as Braun Strowman.

Quote

The big man also had an interesting response to a fan who warned him that he is now in "The Big Dog's" yard as Roman Reigns was also moved from RAW to SmackDown Live as part of the 2019 WWE Superstar Shake-up.

In response to that comment, Sullivan noted, "I'll take a dump in his yard."

Lars also posted, then deleted this tweet:

Isn't this the same guy who couldn't handle being called up and went AWOL for a bit due to anxiety or whatever?

-It was noted on Wrestling Observer Radio, that apart from being told that they would be dropping the Women’s tag team titles, Sasha Banks and Bayley were told at WrestleMania that WWE would be splitting up the team, which is what ended upsetting both women. The plan remains to keep Banks on Raw when she does eventually return.

-As for Sasha Banks, WWE has given her a “couple weeks” to reconsider her decision to quit privately, but she is booked for the next PPV, Money in the Bank.

-Samoa Joe will be feuding with Braun when he goes to Raw.

-WWE has not released Luke Harper from his contract. Same with Alexander Wolfe- the latter may be going back to NXT.

-Sheamus is injured.

-Some have been saying that the War Raiders' name was changed because they didn't want a team with the name "war" on the main roster. Per Meltzer: “There’s nothing to do with ‘war’, Vince just wanted to change the name, that’s all. He didn’t like ‘War Raiders’ and he wanted to change the name. That’s all there is to it. There’s no other reason. Vince just on the day of the show, on Monday, decided he didn’t like the name and told them to come up with a new one.“

eh being told day of sorta makes sense. everything gets leaked and look how sasha reacted: vaguebooking, whining, and quitting the company. they probably knew she'd go insta-emo over it.
