RAW 1/8: I got nothing.

Hopefully it doesn’t suck.

Roman Reigns: Hi, I’m here to give each and every one of you one million dollars.

Smarks: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

What theme song would you guys give Roman Reigns to replace this Shield one? Not saying he should, but what if he had to!

A badass hard rock song.

On that topic: Jordon has officially become the new Roman Reigns.

 

[TJ Matics]

Oh Jason, please stop.

 

[Wildcat66]

FINN!

 

[TJ Matics]

I wish you all a 2018 as brilliant as Balor's smile.

 

[Skairipa Matrix]

I love seeing Balor, Gallows and Anderson together again this week.

Let Me Live My Life By Saint Asonia.

So Jordan is part of the Shield and Balor is now a heel?

 

[Wildcat66]

I can actually tolerate Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows a lot more now.

 

[Navi]

Well for once Gallows wasn't wrong.

A heel turn and two mouthpieces would do Finn wonders. As a face solo act, he’s about as entertaining as a root canal.

 

[Snugglebites]

Jordan > Balor.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm a bit behind but I guessed Balor as the next challenger for Reigns. Not sure if that's where it's going yet but egads that would be a lucky guess.

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

Nothing suggested that. I actually am really enjoying the Jason Jordan development. It's just creative. The son getting opportunities, actually delivering good matches, but falling short on them and by casual luck he gets partnered with one of the top guys in the company and has the gold. However, he was never friends with him, he just believes he is, even though the group thinks he has an attitude and is spoiled and needs to chill and bring it.

It's relatable actually. We all know a Jason Jordan guy. Maybe you are a Jason Jordan.

Finn is just taking the piss of the spoiled lilttle brat. No heel. Even Reigns and Rollins kinda agreed.

Hot take: Bayley peaked on NXT. The more I think about it, the more I feel that it's true.

The Full Sail hugbox tends to pump some people up way higher than they are.

I wouldn't go that far: I've loved Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Big E, Elias Sampson, Chad Gable, Jason Jordon, The Four Horsewoman (especially Becky), Carmella and Alexa Bliss.

It's because her character is very one dimensional. Even when given the chance to stretch it a little it was pulled back. Not saying it was Bayley's fault but it has hurt her.

 

[Sai the Uganda Guy]

Bálor Club eh?
Please just let Karl be the talker, please just let Karl be the talker...

You misunderstand. What Full Sail does is cover up any deficiencies a wrestler has because they love everything. Under the much larger microscope that is the main roster, those deficiencies stick out like a sore thumb.

As far as Bayley, her character needs edge in the worst way. Her current character is a slightly ******ed preteen in a sea of sharks. It doesn’t really work.

Some of this does fall on the hands of bad writing, but honestly: I blame the character stagnating more. It's like she's stuck in the past, trying to live out the good days when she was the most popular wrestler in NXT and maybe all of WWE.

I can guarantee you now: She's never going back to that period unless there's a miracle.

Then again, I was never 100% sold on Bayley anyway (as i'm pretty sure everyone and their mother knows by now) so...go figure I guess?

 

[Skairipa Matrix]

I love the new music for Matt, even if I would have prefered simple piano music to more fit what he had in TNA. But it's still good.

 

[BaconBits]

I tend to think Jeff is getting a rocket shoved in his anus upon his return, to capitalize on his completely unexplainable charisma.
