GDT: WWE Money in the Bank (17th June 2018)

[M.C.G. 31]

Why would you want to see Brock/Braun again? They haven’t put on a good match ever.

They just get pissy at each other and stop cooperating.

You could at least get one more decent Brock match out of someone else. Joe and AJ were able to. Roman and Braun can’t.

lol and it's always Lesnar getting angry at Strowman because Strowman is still rough around the edges and Lesnar just decides to f*** his shit up.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Does Vince not understand that this kind of booking is what happens with Reigns?

Strowman is still over, but nowhere near as much as he was.

Brutal.

I guess Money in the Bank is just like the Royal Rumble. No longer about making new stars.

The Chicago crowd seemed fine with it and they are normally brutal on that stuff. People are okay with a guy getting super booked as long as you can believe it and that is Strowman.

 

[GKJ]

is that counting NXT last night?

Nothing was better than the top 3 matches on NXT last night.

It isn’t about believability. It is about being overexposed. Face Braun is turning into Big Show and the crowds will start checking out.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I don’t know how anyone could watch this show and want to buy Summerslam tickets.

Takeover tickets sure, but no way for Summerslam.

 

[GKJ]

If Brock is never on the show, then you can have Braun demand he be there. That's what the briefcase is for. He gets the match whenever he wants.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Sorry, but right now I’m not seeing it. People are just happy Roman is downplayed and willing to see how this plays out.

 

[The Gongshow]

Braun vs Brock IV at SS it is then

 

[GKJ]

It isn’t about believability. It is about being overexposed. Face Braun is turning into Big Show and the crowds will start checking out.

Braun was always Big Show. People just decided he was awesome at doing it. If people never wanted him to be champion, then they should've not reacted to him.

 

[GarbageGoal]

If Brock is never on the show, then you can have Braun demand he be there. That's what the briefcase is for. He gets the match whenever he wants.

This. Plus the minute he does show up and is vulnerable, people will believe he can be beaten by Braun.

 

[Emperoreddy]

If Brock is never on the show, then you can have Braun demand he be there. That's what the briefcase is for. He gets the match whenever he wants.

Expect we know that isn’t the case because Brock’s nonsense is too public.

It is Summerslam or never.

 

[GarbageGoal]

I don’t know how anyone could watch this show and want to buy Summerslam tickets.

Takeover tickets sure, but no way for Summerslam.

For crying out loud we have no idea what the card will even be yet.

 

[GKJ]

This. Plus the minute he does show up and is vulnerable, people will believe he can be beaten by Braun.

Braun doesn't need to do the typical cash in if they don't want to. They've been setting it up that Braun is calling his shot in wanting Brock, so it will likely be cashed in with a build. That's how I see it going down.

 

[Serac]

But you don't need to give Braun the briefcase to get the title off Brock. It's just lazy. Give it Kofi or Finn or someone else

 

[Emperoreddy]

For crying out loud we have no idea what the card will even be yet.

Awful because this company can’t book this roster.

 

[GKJ]

Expect we know that isn’t the case because Brock’s nonsense is too public.

It is Summerslam or never.

Then it's probably Summerslam.

I'm going to the show, it's not something I'm thrilled with either.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Braun doesn't need to do the typical cash in if they don't want to. They've been setting it up that Braun is calling his shot in wanting Brock, so it will likely be cashed in with a build. That's how I see it going down.

So he wins it at Summerslam instead of Roman, and gets fed to Roman at Mania instead.

What changes?

 

[Shoalzie]

Didn't make predictions but I would've been way off...for the best I guess.

Styles-Nakamura was a solid match but what is happening with Shinsuke now?

 

[Natey]

That is generous. AJ/Nakamura was the match of the night easily though

Well I liked that a lot. I liked the Rousey thing. And Elias/Rollins I have at ***1/4 which is still fairly good. The Women's match was weird. It was close to **** at one point. May have ended under ***.

 

[Natey]

The Chicago crowd seemed fine with it and they are normally brutal on that stuff. People are okay with a guy getting super booked as long as you can believe it and that is Strowman.

Chicago cheered. But nothing like they would have before this whole face crap instead of bad ass tweener.

 

[GKJ]

But you don't need to give Braun the briefcase to get the title off Brock. It's just lazy. Give it Kofi or Finn or someone else

My man, how long have they been doing lazy booking and never knowing what to do next? They changed plans overnight with *Ronda Rousey.* They ended Asuka's streak because they didn't feel like booking someone to be undefeated. And did a finish like they did tonight, Of course they're clueless.

 

[Serac]

My man, how long have they been doing lazy booking and never knowing what to do next? They changed plans overnight with *Ronda Rousey.* They have no idea.

Fair point, but it doesn't it make any less frustrating

 

[GarbageGoal]

He’s mostly a face because people cheer him no matter what.

 

[TD Charlie]

I’m just going to assume that Roman ends up pinning Lesnar at Summerslam in an attempt to make him relevant, then Braun cashes in and walks out as champ just so the live AND at home audiences don’t end the night on a totally bad note.

I honestly wanted Kofi to win. Rusev would’ve been great too.

 

[GKJ]

He’s mostly a face because people cheer him no matter what.

People laughed when Vince said that fans want characters that are 'larger than life'
