Buddy crazy as hell thinking The Rock is doing a wargames match :mjlol:

Cody will likely be defending vs KO since its in Canada

Leaving us with Bloodline vs Bloodline as it should be.
Rock just did a 45 minute street fight tag match at Mania. He can handle 5 minutes in a wargames to close the match.

Fumbling Bobby and the Street Profits was egregious and felt blatant. Should be an upper mid card act... But I guess can't have two diversity fractions at one time even though Judgement Day and Final Testament exist together just fine with consistent screen time every week.

If Final Testament was on a PLE then I’d rock. But The Profits have been positioned on the main event consistently on SmackDown, Kross and them not so much.

This ain’t Mania. The Rock HAD TO wrestle at Mania to get his stock payout.


As selective as The Rock is……WHY would he choose to wrestle in a Wargames match and possibly risk fuccking his body up when they’re gonna run an 80,000 seat stadium just a month or two later?

That wargames ppv is gonna sell out regardless if it hasn’t already.

I hate this stupid ass cop out so much :snoop:

Not even for black wrestlers but wrestlers in general.

It’s not a cop out, everything is a damn business my guy.

You rock with Montez Ford so much, make posts and tag on socials, buy merch, don’t change the channel when he out there.

I’m not even a Montez Ford guy :heh:

He’s cool but I dont know if he’s that guy or not yet.


And yes it is a copout. We saw how that worked for Zack Ryder, We saw how that worked for Daniel Bryan (until Punk quit), We saw the reactions that Lashley was getting even when HHH tried to turn him heel. Didn’t matter.

It’s a weak punk ass cop out because bookers are going to book who they like especially when there’s no significant impact on business either way.

My issue with how people being used... Is that creatively speaking... Nothing is really building up certain wrestlers to put them in the spotlight or their stories are strictly for Raw or Smackdown with no avenues to show out on PLE.

Like Braun vs. Bronson should be on this card over both women matches and Finn/Priest.

Women tag titles should be over Nia vs. Bayley rematch that nobody wanted.

HHH is not putting his best card forward, because he's trying to feature stories that he significantly tipped the scale on importance.

I don't like that at all.

I will say I do feel like a Nia vs. Bayley vs. Naomi triple threat would've made more sense after the double pin and I personally would've been more invested in it than a Bayley/Nia rematch

Gunther is a great wrestler and one of my favorites rn but show me the crazy social media engagement, high ratings, merch sales, ticket sales for him :skip:


HHH is pushing Gunther because he’s his man, The same way Vince was pushing Theory because he was his man.

Never saw myself dapping one of your posts it's a cold day in hell:mjlol:

We've seen the bolded even recently where a nikka like LA Knight, through sheer will, got himself over enough to damn near be in main title contention and a rop merch seller and HHH still let that nikka flame out:mjlol:
