CI Wrestling Thread #56

They need to do away with the draft and go to a literal lottery. Throw everyone's name in a hat and pull them out. The draft should insult the intelligence of the average 8 year old.
 
Anyone else see this?


Edge called AEW stars Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood to deal with Seth Rollins, after the latter invaded his home during tonight's episode of WWE SmackDown.

It's fair to say that Seth Rollins took things too far on Friday night. While Edge was in the ring, he was beyond horrified to see Rollins at his doorstep. The self-proclaimed Drip God invaded Edge's home in a scary visual. Moments later, the fan-favorite could be seen calling his wife, Beth Phoenix and telling her to go to her brother's house.

Edge also told Beth that he is calling “Daniel and David” to help him deal with Rollins. In a tweet, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful noted that Edge was referencing current AEW stars Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood by their real names.
 
Do you think he turned it down because it’s OVW and not wwe or he doesn’t want to wrestle?
 
After the fox football game wwe is having a king of the ring countdown show - no doubt Austin will be #1
 
Went to the show last night, surprised by how small the crowd was compared to the show in Louisville back in July. The card was awesome and the show was a blast.

Off memory in order, I believe.

Nakamura vs Rollins for IC- Nakamura wins
Carmella vs Liv Morgan- Morgan wins
Morrison vs Kross- Kross wins (comedy spots from Morrison)
Big E vs Bobby Lashley
Bianca Belair vs Becky Lych- Lynch wins
AJ Styles/Omos vs New Day- New Day wins- Riddle comes in after the show to hit a finisher on AJ- AJ says UK got lucky against Florida and he can't wait for you all to play Georgia cause "We'll kick the crap out of you." lol

Roman Reigns/Usos vs Finn Balor/Street Profits- Super pro Roman crowd...Reigns gets the win with his finishers.
 
According to the Wrestle Tix site there was about 3,400 seats distributed for the show last night. It didn't look like that many people in the pictures.

Hangman returning almost seems too obvious, wonder if they have someone else debut. I almost think you keep Page away until Full Gear, but that's just me.
 
Looks like Vince is finally starting to look at finding the next big thing like the OVW era that brought in Orton/Cena/Brock/Bautista

 
Steveson still has 2 years of NCAA eligibility left and is definitely competing this year. Not sure how that’s going to work.

With NIL, I don't think it really matters. WWE is not a professional version of what he does so that shouldn't affect his eligibility.

I know that WWE is setting up a training center at his school. I just don't know how he is going to have time to do NCAA and fake wrestling at the same time. And he is a student
 
I didn't like that no-sell either, I hope, since KSR is now affiliated with a wrestling promotion, that someone explains why that isn't "good for business."

They missed a perfect opportunity that I’m shocked Vince didn’t take considering his type humor. But have Seth say he’s got the bubble guts and go in one of the bathrooms, come back after the commercial holding a plunger saying “sorry Edge but it just doesn’t wanna go down.”

I got to laughing so hard last night picturing Seth taking a fat dump in edges house and stopping up his toilet. 😂

Who is your joker for the casino ladder match Wednesday? My money is on Hangman.
Everyone thinks it’s Hangman but I’ll be shocked if it is. Here’s why, if it is Hangman then these are the available outcomes:

1. He doesn’t win. While I could see this happening I don’t think fans would be very kind to this.
2. He wins. Ok so now you have a title match with him and Omega. I don’t know that you can have him lose to Kenny again so that means he would win and become the new champ. Therefore I can’t see them doing that on Dynamite, especially since Omega won the belt on Dynamite and that was the last AEW title change. Full Gear is a month and a half away. I can’t see them waiting that long to do the match. That’s why I can’t see Page being the joker. Timing doesn’t fit.

So, my pick would be either Buddy Murphy or Bronson Reed. I don’t think AEW signs either but I could see them bringing them in for an appearance.

I think the winner is either Archer or Andrade. Probably Andrade.

For months i expected Omega/Page to main event Full Gear and Hangman win the title there but his leave really messed that up. So I’m now thinking it happens at Revolution. Hangman will either make his return at Full Gear or at the Dynamite in Virginia late in November since it’s his home state.

Page winning at FG would have been perfect since the ppv is named after him and it would be the same show a year ago that he and Omega had their number 1 contenders match.

But if it’s at Revolution then you have Omega have a title reign of over a year and it’s at the ppv where they first showed signs of turning on each other after their match with the Bucks in 2019.
 
Is anyone else surprised they "drafted" the Usos as quick as they did last night? It was a perfect opportunity to drag it out and let Heyman do what he does best. Even better, they could have had the Usos go to Raw and let Heyman work it for a couple weeks to get the bloodline back together. I think WWE missed a golden opportunity.

Didn’t watch the show but I saw some picks on Instagram. So how does it work that Becky is the SmackDown women’s champ but is on raw? Or did I miss something?

Charlotte took the Raw championship to Smackdown. If I had to guess, Sasha will win the triple threat at Crown Jewel so that will stay on Smackdown and Belair beats Charlotte on Raw in the next couple weeks.
