Cena went last time. The only difference is that there is an international scandal going on.

 

[Alex Jones]

Cena went and pretty much fellated the Crown Prince while he was there. This is a PR move.

Becky did an AMA on Reddit few days ago,it was brilliant.
Becky, did you ever get star struck meeting another wrestler/legend?

I got a glimpse of myself this morning and asked myself for an autograph.

House Hardy Halloween was hilarious. Wish Bray made an appearance though. I am curious who is this dark lord.

Also watching Boogeyman eat that many worms made my stomach hurt. Papa Shango was amazing, love that Vanguard 1 found a lady friend, and Senior Benjamin got some action too. Itchweed and the kangaroo also classic parts.

Can’t wait for the Christmas special.

My first thought over who the hooded villain is, is Vince. They have to recreate the meme, right ?

It was so good though. Legitimately had me loling

She has made millions and just had a child. Why would she do this?

My literal reaction.

Why on earth would WWE chase after Serena, and what interest would she have in WWE? I'd have to assume it would be for some managerial role, or "guest GM" or something, anything besides actual in-ring competition.

Reports getting confirmed that Danielson is off Crown Jewel

 

[Dr Pepper]

Good for him.

Miz to get the title shot instead?

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Bryan is the real MVP here, not Cena taking care of his PR Hollywood image.

 

[Paris in Flames]

My dreams of guys like Seth bailing are fading very quickly.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Apparently WWE was even going to have Bryan/Styles do the match at the Performance Centre and air it in a pretape but those plans were dropped. PWInsider said they weren’t planning on sending Styles to Saudi Arabia if Bryan didn’t change his mind.

I wonder if they just do the match at Survivor Series instead.

They may also tape it tonight and air it Friday.

With the Raw vs. Smackdown premise revealed (ugh), doubt they’re doing any title matches. Either they’ll do something before, or just drop it.

yikes lol

 

[M.C.G. 31]

yikes lol

I think it would have been cool. PC students would have made more noise than the Saudi crowd anyways for it.

No way he's going to bail, they would have written him out.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Unfortunate reality is Bryan bailing probably makes it hard for the company to put the title on him if they plan on continuing these SA shows after this one. He’s not going to be someone the company can look at and rely upon.

 

[GKJ]

He would get it eventually. Being the champion on Smackdown doesn’t necessarily make you ‘the guy they’re going with.’ I don’t see him getting the title any time soon.

 

[Emperoreddy]

When was the last time AJ main evented a show as champ?

WWE champ is a mid card belt.

They put the WWE championship on Jinder Mahal, it's not like they're trying to protect it.

If DB was on Raw there's no doubt in my mind he would never, ever, ever get a title shot again, but I could see them letting him win on Smackdown.

Let's see here... tennis schedule is as difficult as WWE and she's still the greatest of all time female athlete playing her sport. So.. umm... no. If she wins a major, she gets 1m. That's more than 300 days on the road for WWE. Short of it being a quick thing, no chance. That woman still have a few years of tennis left and a brand new baby to worry about.

He is going to get dumped on for booking.

That said, since we've all heard Serena screaming at an umpire, imagine giving her a live mic in front of a packed house and telling her to cut a promo.
