WWE: Smackdown Live 25: Everyone's tough until The Man comes around

[Natey]

Dont go sleeping on that cruiserweight match yo

I don't really like Ali, unfortunately. I love Buddy Murphy. But Ali does nothing for me. He's not a bad wrestler, but I just can't get into him. I much prefer 99% of the others on 205 Live.

TJP, Gulak, Lucha House Party, etc, etc are just much more entertaining, while being as good or better in the ring.

 

[Conrad McBenis]

Should include Becky on both lists

Oh lawd, you're right.

 

[Miester]

Just think that they managed to get heat on Danielson, but couldn't get it on Becky.

To be fair he was getting a bit blah as a face. And everyone still loves AJ, no one likes Charlotte when they tried it w Becky lol. Count me as excited to see where this goes though

 

[Alex Jones]

TBH, DB's character wasn't really that interesting since he came back. Going heel is the right move.

Don't get what this sets up for Survivor Series. AJ vs Brock made sense, now that's taken away.

They need some crazy shit to happen in that match, or else this just seems kind of pointless.

This is desperation on WWE's part to get us to cheer Brock, isn't it?

I was just going to say the same thing. He's been dull, at least to me, so I think this is a breath of fresh air to turn him.

Even Vince knows no one is going to cheer Brock over DB.

Braun or someone will blow up the match on Sunday.

 

[Alex Jones]

Can someone please help chart the turns in the last month?

Face Turns:
Roman Reigns (lol)
Elias
Becky Lynch
Braun Strowman

Heel Turns:
Dean Ambrose
Daniel Bryan
Bobby Lashley
HM: Ronda on Sunday

Can't complain, these are all good decisions in my book.

Everyone sucks as a face because they don't know how to make any. That's why they all turn heel. Their biggest face right now they don't even want to be a face.

 

[SnS]

What a joke. You break an epic reign on a dick kick. Goodbye subscription.

They screwed him by putting him with Cass as his first singles program when he returned, but yeah it’s definitely not the same level of over as his 2013-2014 peak. That belongs to Becky now.

I don’t have a problem turning him heel.

The scripted promos are the reason nobody can be a good face anymore. You can write a guy a bunch of lines that make him sound like a douche, a lot harder to make him sound likable.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Is anyone else worried as f*** for Bryan to take suplexes from Brock tho lol

 

[c9777666]

So if Nia Jax doesn't land that punch, AJ is still champ?

This sounds like a panic move after what happened to Becky

 

[TD Charlie]

Good little made for tv title match. Hated the booking. Hated it

For a ppv with zero stakes, SS was shaping up to be a great show. Becky goes down, tough break. Then they fudge with their marquee match? So are they going with heel Bryan v Lesnar or is this just an attempt to get AJ a sympathy pop v Lesnar? I’m so lost. Awful shake up on the go home to a major ppv

 

[GKJ]

The fact that they did this on TV reeks of change-in-plans.

No, AJ is not going to Raw. At least not before Wrestlemania. Who is your top male face? Rey Mysterio? Jeff Hardy?

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Just saw the Becky segment. Wow, they have the PERFECT storm to have the women main event Wrestlemania with Becky vs. Ronda. Holy shit.

 

[Cor]

Lol WWE somehow made people not lik Bryan winning the WWE Title the firs time since he returned

 

[TD Charlie]

Funny how it seemed like everything was just buying time til Charlotte v Ronda at mania. Then Becky gets her face caved in and it turns the plans on their head. A veangeful Becky v Ronda at mania has legitimate wrestlemania main event appeal to me. Far more than if Charlotte were involved.

Yeah, except Ronda had nothing to do with why Becky is not fighting.

I dont think so.

 

[TD Charlie]

She existed. The Man needs no reason other than not getting the chance at a fight on Sunday. Easy script.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Becky hugged Charlotte?

f*** this company.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Why a DB heel turn?

This is desperation on WWE's part to get us to cheer Brock, isn't it?

How do you send a message to the locker room and punish a guy for refusing to go to your blood money show in Saudi Arabia?

Turn him heel, slash his merch checks.

Turn him heel, slash his merch checks.

And make him champion? And I'm pretty sure turning heel only gives an opportunity for new merch and more sales
