Ciampa out on Miz TV.

They're doing a good job setting up for Survivor Series with this show. Nice to see it not feel so stale for once.

Daniel Bryan challenges HHH, who declines. HHH says he knows someone who wants to fight and Shawn Michaels starts taking off his jacket, then says "it's cold in here!"

SD is the whole show, RAW gets edited down from 3 hours (really about 2.25 counting commercials) to 1.5 for the replay

Also, best episode of SD ever

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #8052 on:** November 01, 2019, 11:45:54 PM »

Was told the NXT charter didn't land until 7:55 pm and they had a police escort to get them to the building.

One person I spoke with added they could not have cut it any closer to get everyone in place for the third segment when Shayna Baszler made her appearance.

that happened live too. on reddit someone who attended said there was a neckbeard trying his hardest at some points to get a "refund" and "aew" chant going in the crowd so maybe it was that.

What's more carny than potentially getting a signicant amount of staff members murdered by a state government?

nachobro · « **Reply #8057 on:** November 04, 2019, 02:42:07 PM »

AJ was streaming games this weekend and said it was some flight company BS and everyone was annoyed but not in any danger. Of course who knows who to believe but his explanation seems reasonable.

The story of "well the private flights got out" seems silly cause everyone was on private flights from the sounds of it.

I tried listening to Dave Meltzer talk about Saudi Arabia, and the guy is just a total mushmouth.

Asuka's new cooking video is much more lucid, and three-quarters of it is in a language I don't speak.

For Immediate Release

WWE® AND THE SAUDI GENERAL ENTERTAINMENT AUTHORITY EXPAND EVENT PARTNERSHIP

STAMFORD, CONN. and RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA, November 4, 2019 – Following the historic Crown Jewel event in Riyadh, WWE (NYSE: WWE) and the Saudi General Entertainment Authority (GEA) have expanded their live event partnership through 2027 to include a second annual large-scale event. WWE and GEA also continue to work towards the completion of a media agreement in the MENA region.

This long-term partnership demonstrates WWE and GEA's commitment to bring sports entertainment to the region and supports Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030.

sounds like sour business relationship that everyone is ready to get out of to me

Actually known shit:

Stro and Meltz are talking out of their ass

bork · « **Reply #8060 on:** November 04, 2019, 05:06:05 PM »

I don't see how they're talking out of their ass when the wrestlers themselves tweeted how bad everything was.

WWE was already running two shows in Saudi Arabia as it is but their contract only called for one show this is just them making it look official to make it appear everything is okay for the investors... or at least that's what the dirt sheets want you to believe lol

Because plane issues taking forever and then pilots/flight crew having to quit for the day after being on the clock rather than fly 14 hours and be over their shift is very easily believable and I've had stupid shit like that happen before myself.

nachobro · « **Reply #8063 on:** November 04, 2019, 05:36:20 PM »

and the only person who would go on the record about what happened was AJ and he didn't seem to think the delays were anything to be worried about. almost everything else around this seems to be a rumor or 2nd/3rd hand report. so again,

we'll see what happens next year but my bet is everyone who whined on twitter will be collecting their check so i don't really feel too bad about the whole thing.

Dunno why, but I got really surprised when Dio just stood up to confront Lesnar- just didn't hit me that he's a wrassler, lol.

Then he gets destroyed by Brock, who is in turned destroyed again by...Rey Mysterio.

Rey: "At survivor series, are you gonna be man enough to come after me, like I came after you?!"

Note that there were several segments where Brock was going all over the arena looking for Rey, who finally showed up out of nowhere with a baseball bat to attack Brock

You know what though? NXT being added makes it feel fresh. Ultimately I am certain WWE will disappoint -that's one thing they're the masters of- but at least TV feels fun again with these segments. Curious if we see any dubya dubya 'E run-ins on NXT this week.

WWE has announced that 205 Live will be taking place at Full Sail University this Friday night. WWE is teasing that the 205 Live wrestlers and NXT wrestlers will all be under the same roof.

No word on what prompted the venue change but it could be because it’s easier tape in Orlando while the main roster flies out of the country for the European tour. There is a double taping of Raw and SmackDown on Friday so that is the most likely reason. Either way, this will get the 205 Live wrestlers in front of a hot crowd and the show should come across better on TV.

205 Live will air at 10 pm eastern on the WWE Network, immediately after Friday Night SmackDown.

NXT going to tour and 205 Live is going to be the show that takes place in Full Sail.
