Bryan Alvarez: WWE to break some big news next week, said to be on par with the NXT TV deal.

“I don’t know what the news is. I know that something happened within WWE yesterday that the people that do know what it is were expecting the word to get out yesterday but it didn’t. The feeling is that it will get out probably sometime next week. I don’t know what it is. I know that the people that know feel like it’s a very big story so we’ll have to wait. It’s very similar to the NXT to USA story in the sense that, I heard about the news in the morning and I expected the news to be out by the end of the day and it wasn’t so we waited until the news broke. Something absolutely happened and we’re gonna know about it soon enough and that’s literally all I can tell you about it. But people there do believe that it’s a big story.”

LAX predictably were the masked men who attacked the Bucks and Luchas after the tag match.

As these shows go on, I keep getting more and more of a WCW/TNA vibe and I dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

What they had to do.

AEW spent a lot of bullets on this PPV. Almost feels like they're spent already before being on weekly TV.

Yeah four kinda meh shows in a row has lessened my positivity on AEW a bunch. I suppose they can right this once TV hits and they have an easier way to tell a story but how are they even handling that? Is there going to be writers/editors? Who's even handling booking?

Don't remember where I heard it, but it seems all the VPs have their own domains for booking. Cody for Men's singles, The Young Bucks for Men's Teams, and Omega for women matches.

If that's true it already explains a lot of what's going on

bork · « **Reply #7062 on:** September 02, 2019, 02:01:21 PM »

They've already said that storylines will start with TV.

They also have said that wrestlers will be rotated in and out to keep things fresh and not seem so repetitive. Assuming that this translates to "Cody, Bucks, Omega, Jericho, Moxley, and anyone in that status and can come and go on TV whenever they want and mid and lower card guys-- maybe we'll use you. Maybe."

The only real character/story they have going right now is that Kenny would rather be wrestling in Japan instead of his own company

Omega already promoting him going back to DDT.

I guess so. It's one of the dumbest things the WWE does to kill time on its weekly programming. And that's saying something.

Honestly, at this point the best case scenario might somehow be AEW shitting the bed so Vince mostly leaves NXT alone and it can just be 2 (really 1.5 considering commercials) hours of what people love about NXT already

(haha it's gonna be destroyed because we can't have anything nice)

Dude, it's going to be a road show after the first month because WWE can't help themselves and not realize that trying to run 3 different rosters on the road doesn't make sense.

They won't. He's being kept off TV weekly on purpose to make his appearances "special."

About time. Although yeah- feels like too many heels now. I guess if nothing else, they have Bayley drop the title and then re-team with Sasha to go after the tag belts again.

Three of the four horsewomen are now heel. Rumor is that they are all being set up to reunite in some capacity later on.

nachobro · « **Reply #7075 on:** September 03, 2019, 09:16:51 AM »

Yeah, might be working to some sort of swap too. Becky is all over the SD advertising even though she's on Raw so she might be making the move over.

They wanna do the 4 Horsewomen of NXT vs the 4 Horsewomen of MMA, but Ronda's off being a farmer, on a tv show, and maybe trying to get preggers now, and the two junior horsewomen (Shafir and Duke) are still really not ready to do much of anything other than be stooges yet. Shayna Baszler is, in some ways, better at this than Ronda was (her promos don't sound like they were written by a 73 year old increasingly senile Republican, for one, but that would change if she was on the main roster, and she's never concussed anyone repeatedly as far as I know) but for whatever reason they never want to move her to the main roster. Who knows.

Haha, what a circle of life journey Becky has been on. A little over a year ago she was getting cheered for being heelish and now Bayley gets a similar reaction for doing the same thing to her. They don't know how to let top performers be anti-heroes anymore, everyone has to be dumb fucking babyfaces. VINCE MCMAHON, WITH HIS FINGER ON THE PULSE OF WHAT HIS AUDIENCE WANTS PER THE USUAL.
