I know you don’t agree with him but he doesn’t get the layers to their friendship. Just because KO been a trash friend they are still friends and Sami still got love for him. He allowed them to beat him up a little but Roman was going too far. It’s not that complicated.

Also at some point Sami knew he would already be walking on eggshells around them. Everything made perfect sense Dude was nitpicking.

I mean have we really seen it? KO kinda been boderline abusive to him since 2014 lol

I was ready to disagree with breh and say he was hating but he makes a compelling point about if anyone has been toxic and gaslighting him its KO

Now if they wanna acknowledge that and play it into the storyiine and give more layers and more cinema to it then thats good but they havent yet

Becky been doing the Lord's Work with her ring gear ever since coming back ....

(Bayley should take some damn notes)

I remember hearing an interview where Becky basically admitted to having body dysmorphia. She gained a lot more confidence in her appearance after she had her baby. Pretty funny since it's usually the opposite in most women.

From what I saw tonight, WM is lookin like:

Roman vs Cody

Sami & KO vs Usos

Brock vs Bobby (I’m sure they’re gonna “suspend” Brock for touching a ref so they can have another excuse why he’s gone til Mania)

Edge vs Balor feud finale (rematch at Backlash)

Dom vs Rey

Seth vs Logan

Rhea vs Bianca?

I don’t watch on a weekly basis so what happened to that Dexter dude? I do know AJ and Randy are injured and Riddle is doing some rehab stuff or somethin

Seems like if AJ ain’t there, they have nothin for Luke and Karl to do

 

[Easy-E]

Triple H is publicly giving Bianca her flowers. Will you look at that?

Keep your foot on they neck!

Damn no update on Rey Rey or noth huh​

 

[Vice Queen]

Fair points but it's not like Zayn doesn't already know how Roman and the Bloodline gets down. Hell, he's participated.

I mean, let's look at it from a different perspective; would this be okay if a woman was trying to move on from an abusive partner of the past and because the partner has beef with the new partner he comes along to gaslight her into being conflicted up to the point she loses everything she worked toward with the new partner?

I get Roman and the Bloodline aren't exactly great people but they did treat him reasonably well. And once again, once Jey Uso was on his side he pretty much had the backing of everyone.....until Kevin Owens started planting those seeds of doubt which irritated Reign's paranoia. It could be argued that KO was more so looking out for himself and trying to create dissention within the Bloodline rather than concern for Sami Zayn, which is something Zayn should have considered.

I mean the fact that we are debating this means its a good story. I just think the inevitable KO reunion should have come after Reigns loses the titles, goes AWOL on the Bloodline and Sami steps up. It gives him more than just sympathy when the split happens, he would have credibility as well.

I see what you're saying, but I can't see it working like that. This dissention leaves Roman vulnerable which I think will make his eventual title loss hit harder. He has to go Apocalypse Now style paranoid and he won't do that with the Bloodline at full strength. Also, KO's role is important, but KO and Sami's relationship isn't the focus, it's Sami and Jey and by extension, Jey and Roman. KO might be looking out for his own self interest, but deep down I think he got love for Sami in his own fukked up way and just won't admit it. Sami taking control of the Bloodline because Roman leaves wouldn't work because I don't see Roman tucking his tail and leaving and Sami don't seem like the type to take control of things, your idea works if Jey takes over, gets his confidence back and then we come full circle when Roman comes back to resume command. Sami stands by Jey and then KO comes in out of jealousy.

So is it gonna be Seth and Logan Paul at mania?

 

[Vice Queen]

You're cooking tonight, Vice. You need to take your film review talents to YouTube so you can get paid.

I'm gonna get this ADHD under control and then these motherfukkers (and by these I mean my mind) ain't stopping me.

 

[Easy-E]

Our Tribal Chief has spoken!

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

This nikka was like; bu bu bu but you don't understand their relationship. I hope yall are only viewing this as okay in a wrestling storyline frame of reference and not how actual relationships should work.

I mean before anyone says it, yes Undertaker and Kane should have been on sight for life using my logic but no was calling that shyt "cinema" or the greatest wrestling story ever told. You want to heap lofty praise like that it needs to hold up or ar least be subjected to scrutiny. Just because you like something doesn't make it perfect. I've never seen people stan a storyline to the point where even one aspect can't be criticized. I don't hate the storyline, I don't like how this part of it played out.

 

[mannyrs13]

With the whole bloodline storyline going on, I wonder if they intertwine it with one of the chamber matches or if they do something different like a match for the US or IC titles. I don't see what the women can do. Unless they make up enough tag teams for the women's tag titles or a match for the title that Rhea doesn't go after.



It be crazy if the bloodline completely crumbles and they put Roman, Solo, Jimmy, Jey, Sami, and Ko all in the chamber match.

 

[2CT]

just realized neither Nakamura nor Styles were in the rumble or on the show at all

better have some plans for the guys at Mania that's a glaring omission to say the least

That's what's up. I know the Vice Queen show would be successful. By the way, if you need an agent, let me know. I'll make sure that you get your 20% on time!
