SHINSUKE???? CHALLENGING?? MAYBE?? I'm here for it

I thought WrestleMania this year was fantastic but both thee raw and SmackDown after Mania has been so inconsequential, it's like they didn't even know what they want to do next. If Nakamura is somehow the next challenger for Reigns, they did one awful job of making it clear. Only thing that excites me right now is Cody and Bianca and I can't wait to see where they go with them.

Congrats Roman! You beat the mighty Brock Lesnar in the “greatest” Wrestlemania match of all time. Your next opponent? The King of the Ring that never won the tournament.

Maybe next they can invade NXT so they can mess up the storylines for every bit of WWE tv.

LIVE, THIS WEEK ON SMACKDOWN MONDAY. THEN, on SMACKDOWN FRIDAY….

Unify all the companies, UNIFY ALL THE WORKERS

Don’t give them any ideas, we don’t need one 7 hour weekly show

BURN IT DOWN!

imagine sticking your hand in a bowl of cowshit and after 1 hour and 45 minutes of sifting your hands through it you finally grab something hard and when you pull your hand out you realized you just picked up a piece of cowshit thats what that ending was

Well it’s a strange way to build up your latest challenger, have him come out, get hugged, look confused then super kicked by his lackies, after years of being in tag teams and nothing feuds because they wasted his first year on nxt instead of just going with him straight away, and then giving up on him even though expecting him to get over by losing to aj then losing to Jinder, very very very odd. If they can somehow make him the old nakamura that would be cool

I suspect they are going to have him go the cowardly heel route beating up little guys and running from actual challenges so Cody can chase him.

It's not just down to booking, but also Nakamura himself. Even in NXT his matches were never really that great with the exception of the Sami Zayn match.

Yeah but they expected him to have these big long classics after that but that’s not how you get over, like his match with Dolph just went on and on, why he didn’t get the same treatment as other with squash matches and doing his cool moves so he looked like a badass I dunno. Once I heard he just likes to surf and is happy with his spot I kinda gave up on him too, there’s footage of an old entrance he made in Japan he’s got this spiky black crown on like something out of a Tim burton film and dancing girls in cages it’s immense but I suppose he hasn’t really evolved as a character and you can only do the same thing for so long in the wrestling world until it’s we’ve seen it what else ya got

Just so boring honestly legit no one left who can legit beat him so what's the point just end the show been a good 20+ years

All that’s left is beat Rock and drop it to Drew

but holding it another year like nah im good we've been there done that with drew been there done that with rock coming back, im all for bringing in old dudes for a quick thing but come on it's time for someone new he don't need the belts to fight the rock

Someone else said he’s getting the Brock Schedule

If that's the case just close the damn doors you can't take both belts off the show for that long just so stupid.

I’m sorry I disappointed you

You could never disappoint me champ I'm proud of you

disappointing raw and smack down after mania. Not even as good as regular random episodes of the shows throughout the year

Nobody is beating Roman for a very long time lol

im betting cody at summerslam wins the wwe championship.

At least let him say why he's there lol

the proper acronym is GODL the shirt will never not bother me

I thought it was only me

See y'all on the Rampage thread

Roman's my guy but I don't want the Usos to also be overpowered

I didn't get the point of even bringing Shinsuke out if they were just gonna make him look stupid.

start a new rivalry:

Lame way to start one. Lol

ok

It’s clearly setting him up for a feud with Roman

Cheap heat

McAfee said the thing!!

There’s no way that shield music plays by accident…

Damnit Roman's theme has been like that since the first time he used it. WWE never properly looped the song

[удалено]

It is…and I caught the last part because I’m just getting home and I happened to catch that

and as usual with WWE, your tag team partner is out of commission....so are you

Imagine getting that out of the segment

So…Nakamura’s getting released soon? /j

How tf did you come to that conclusion?

I’m mostly joking, but I wouldn’t put it behind WWE to do something like that.

Shinsuke should have won at WM34.

I’m pretty no one in recent memory has ever been as excited to go to…Detroit, Michigan…as the Usos were a few minutes ago

Nakamura throwing Kinshasha's about left right and centre on Monday then?

The same game being on two networks at once? The USFL really is progressive!

So i just turned on SmackDown just to get told to watch RAW

last week it was the opposite lol

The RAW has potential to be on of the best Raws in recent history. Shit

I'm going to be there haha first wwe show in years. Got them as a random bday present so we'll see how it goes. I thought the raw and SD after mania were lackluster so I'm hoping creative feels the same and makes it a good show. If not the crowd will probably let them hear it lol

how so?

The build is insane for it and it's in Detroit. Hostile as hell. You may hear fuck you chants

Lol is this really how the show is ending ?

In the words of the wise and all knowing philosopher, Kevin Owens: "Yep!"

Guys I think Romans shoulder survived the brutal kimura

yeah lmao that shit looks fine

People confused what the point was? The point was to boost Nakamura back up to main event and beginning a program with Reigns.

He got knocked out by the freaking Usos. He should have kicked their ass and pointed at Roman after.

They beat his ass at mania

The freaking Usos? You mean one of the top tag teams in wrestling today, The tag champions. 3 on 1 in the ring. I don't see your complaint

Nobody cares about the Usos. They would be in AEW without being related to Roman.

Terrible build. Poor booking

...by having him instantly knocked out without doing anything. He's hardly "boosted" to main event like that.

To lose to Roman?

off to rampage🤦🏻‍♂️

Off to bed rather

[удалено]

i really dont get aew fans lol. just started getting into wrestling again after hearing cody is returning to wwe in mania and whenever i see a aew fan they think aew has actual wrestling and wwe dont

Paul Heyman vs Charlotte fir the womens title ALL THE GOLD BABY

i mean. Tamina shares some blood with them , doesn't she ? and Naomi is married to one of the usos, she could join them and beat Charlotte

Main event of raw was basically “watch Smackdown” and the main event of Smackdown was basically “watch Raw”.

I mean, that's how it should be.

Both RAW and Smackdown closing segments weak af.

And yet.......you watched.

Yes, I watched and then provided my opinion, that's how this works.

Much appreciated.

Shinsuke will cost The Usos against RK-Bro, love this

It's a compelling shift

Odds he’s going to get a championship contenders match lmao

holy fuck this company has NOTHING going on. Eating up the last 5 minutes of SD with replays.

Supakick partyyyy

[удалено]

Must be fun being so pessimistic

so we now know jack shit about the titles we wanted to learn something about lol

If they’re unifying everything, I hope this means that Bianca beats Charlotte.

It's going to be Ronda beating Bianca.

So that's it?

Remember when they used to go over by 15 mins every week? Now they can't even fill 2 hours...

Remember (still happens) when people complained there was too much TV each week. Well now you are complaining there isn't more..

They have to end by 7pm cuz of the network

Was hoping he'd say there's one more cowboy whose gold he needs

Man, they need to move AJ or Lashley over to SD.

Romans new gimmick is just giving you the reason you need to watch the next show whether it be Raw or Smackdown

Literally the best part of both shows, WWE is really on his back right now

Very good. I think Nak/Roman could be a good feud.

Is Roman hurt or not?

I'm pretty sure that Roman is simply switching to only defend the title at the big 4 PPVs model like Brock did.

Imagine if the usos got the intercontinental and usa titles too :O

I want all the Samoans to join the bloodline

Well that ending was pointless.

Cheap heat, too.

Pat acknowledging our Tag Team Tribal Leaders

Geez, did Nakamura knock over Vince's protein shake this afternoon or something?

This legit made me LOL.

so they’re not going to physically unify the belts huh. just holding two at once means they’re “unified” then?

If Nak is motivated, him vs. Roman would kick so much ass

Nakamura v Reigns should be pretty good if Shinsuke is motivated

They ended the show early LOL

Fox always has them go off early.

Well that’s a pretty shitty ending

Sooooooo, whats next for Roman?????

Pat sounds like Mania finally caught up to him.

3 straight Raw’s with Uso’s versus RK-Bro. Tired.

That was it lol

oh cmon i thought there was a legit announcement that related to the world title(s)

Solo Sikoa showing up to take the IC and US titles

Unifying the tag titles would be the smartest thing WWE could do considering there are less then double digit tag teams across both brands.

I mean why not put Naomi in the Bloodline. Usos superkick Charlotte Flair to get the title for Naomi 😂

Because that would mean acknoledging that the women's division matter as much as the men's.

Damn, that was a really good ending segment.

Can Shinsuke get the title shot he was screwed out of in January last year from the gauntlet match?

uhhh what

Coming for all the gold? Paul Heyman the next 24/7 Champ?

But really they probably should unify the tag titles

Just take a look at the women's tag division and you will see why they really shouldn't.

Stop saying geek, you fucks.

They really have no idea what to do with Roman right now. LOL.

That was a waste lol

I don’t think it’s a good idea to send Jimmy to Detroit after last time

They really just padding out the ending with replays huh?

Hahahahahaha he fell for the oldest trick in the book

Did Pat say Superkick Party?

He did

someone gotta be coming out with no time left

"We going to Detroit Uce" Dont get drunk this time please.

Has shinsuke got a title shot yet? Cuz otherwise what was the point of him coming out?

Shin needs to come back HARD next week otherwise he looks like a complete jobber

I don’t think he’s ever really bounced back since losing to Jinder and AJ Styles

He already is a jobber.

Imagine if Nia was still around LMAO

Roman acknowledged BOOGS

SmackDown don’t have budget for the Codyvator Next Monday it is

I really hope that’s not Romans next opponent, how can I be convinced Nakamura could beat him? Serious question.

By acting like he was well booked. "Nakamura is a Royal Rumble Winner, WrestleMania main Eventer and former Smack Down Tag Team Champion, besides also being both a former Intercontinental and United States Champion!" You know... they fumbled all of those things (except the Rumble Win, that was Nakamura's peak), but they sound cool on paper.

"super kick party" GIMMICK INFRINGEMENT PAT!!!

SUPER KICK PARTYYYYY

As much as I love Shinsuke...this is what happens when you don't build anyone up, you have to hard shift a guy who's been wasted in the lower mid card into the main event scene and it makes no sense. Just a shame they're just going to feed him to Roman like everyone before him.

Nak with a “What you doin?!” Confused look 😂

Does anyone remember Nak eliminating Reigns to win the rumble that one year?

That was amazing

oh yeahhh

Why do this to shinsuke?

Can they collect the us title and intercontinental too so that triple h meme comes true

Solo Sikoa will come up from NXT and unify those

When you woke up this morning, did you think you would see Roman Reigns hugging Shinsuke Nakamura? Neither did Shin

Beautiful.

What the fuck? Where's the unified world title??! Where's the new belt??!

I don't think they're doing that anymore since Cody specifically called out the WWE title.

Oh my god is that how the episode is going to end? That would be hilarious.

Roman hug of death! I am down for Nakamura vs Roman.

Rude

Nakamura went out there because?

Usos injured his tag team partner

That was.....something.

I love Shinsuke but I hate this attire

Pointless

Oh man, my pop for Nakamura was very short lived

This is one strange segment

Well that sucked. Way to disrespect a legit legend like Nakamura like that

what

Six man tag coming soon

it’s crazy that i was standing by Roman all them years he was getting booed and now when he’s getting his best reactions to date I’m entirely disinterested 😭😭

Hope there’s not a OUI before Detroit

So stupid

That was non-consensual hugging. Sexual harassment lawsuit incoming.

Yup I love every part of this. They won me back

Im having a love/hate feeling for this,main event Nakamura YES...but the certified L,just ugh.

I bet no one hd Shinuske getting hugged by the Tribal Chief on their bingo card for tonight 😂

Being a Nakamura fan has been painful since he faced Jinder Mahal

We got the Royal Rumble win and early heel Shin in all that though.

Loving and compassionate tribal chief that loves smashing people

…lame

Roman Reigns hug Shinsuke, Tribal chief acknowledge Shinsuke... and The Usos superkicked Nakamura. Ooof.

Shinsuke looks like he should be sponsored by that Cheez-Its money

sponsored by mikes hard whatwver the fuck drink
