That seems to be the case, at least the first part of it.

Who benefited most by being managed by "Sensational" Sherri?

 

[klunderbunker]

Shawn.

 

[Black Anaconda Vise]

Sooo what's up with Sawyer Fulton? Is he still injured, permanently gone from SANitY or what?

Also has Lio Rush officially been signed to NXT now?

 

[klunderbunker]

I think he's still injured.

Not that has been announced.

I see that Cyborg has indicated that she wants a match with Becky Lynch at Summerslam. Do you think it will happen or not?

 

[klunderbunker]

I'd be surprised but not stunned.

 

[justinsayne]

Is Eric Young injured? I haven't seen him with the rest of Sanity in awhile

 

[klunderbunker]

POssibly. Either that or waiting for a big moment.

Cena's being advertised for No Mercy. Surely he won't bring the WWE title with him, so what happens?
Does Cena beat Nak and lose to Jinder at SummerSlam? Does he lose to Nak? Or does a screwy finish to Smackdown's main event set up a triple threat for SummerSlam?

 

[klunderbunker]

My guess is Cena wins, Cena wins, Corbin cashes in.

Ah, hadn't thought of that route.
So would Cena just have a rematch on Smackdown and from there jump over to Raw to begin the build for whatever the plan is for him at No Mercy?

 

[klunderbunker]

Good chance of it yeah.

Why is Kalisto not in the cruiserweight division? Does that not seem stupid to you?

 

[AnthonyM4]

I hope Joe vs Cena happens at No Mercy. It will be in LA where both men got their start in the business. They should talk about that in the build. How about it KB?

Yep. He's pretty much tailor made for it.

I'd go for it.

 

[Fire Marshall Bill]

With reports saying Cena is going to Raw after SummerSlam, do you still think he wins tonight? I do, since he was featured against Mahal last week on Smackdown, but it'll be weird for Cena to have a one off match for a title in which he loses, probably not clean either. Makes you wonder if someone from Raw will be the cause of the loss.

 

[klunderbunker]

I do. I think he goes there, wins the title, loses it to Corbin via cash-in, and heads to Raw.

How do wrestlers know when to end a match? I'm sure they are told beforehand how much time they have and I read the referee plays a part in it, but I'm wondering how they know when to go into the finishing sequence, the "signature sequence", when momentum shifts for the face to start his comeback etc. Always fascinated me.

 

[klunderbunker]

Short version: referees tell them. Watch how often referees talk to the wrestlers. For example, when someone is in a submission and a referee "asks if they want to give it up". See if they're not telling them something at the same time.

Long version: You can often hear them being told "X minutes left". If you look REALLY carefully (and know what to look for) at older promotions, the entire crew is in on the relaying of signals regarding time. One old one was the ring announcer would cross their arms with a certain number of minutes to go (say five) then put his hand on his jaw with three to go etc.

 

[Da Prophet]

Does Cena/Punk at MITB have the worst commentary for a big match? Them saying no Cena fans are in attendance while showing pro-Cena signs and chants of Cena are heard. Booker T bringing up Rocky 4 and how Cena was turning the crowd like Rocky did the Russians. Even Cole is stunned at that reference and doesn't know how to respond.

Is there another example of a big match where you were watching it and thought the commentary was just god awful?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not off the top of my head, though some Wrestlemania matches where the fans are "split" is laughable at best.

 

[justinsayne]

How pissed is Brooklyn gonna be when Jinder beats Nak at SummerSlam?

Why wasn't Joe/Reigns/Strowman the ME of RAW, surely more people give a fuck about that match than Cass/Show?

 

[klunderbunker]

Oh you know. It's up there.

It would, though that show drew their best audience in three months with the highest third hour in a long time.

KB, if Ember Moon is winning at Takeover, then do you think Asuka vs. Ember should be the main event in Brooklyn?
