Next up for the Shield: reunited 3MB

The TRUE test
---

See actually the way that's executed it would be a Triple Double IF Rollins was somehow assisting Ambrose. But I'm leaning towards it being a Double Double.

Who had the vote in for Double Double? Cause that guy was right. Think Triple Double is closer to right than Double Triple though. Double Triple you'd need Gunn and Dogg stacked on top of each other.
---

I'm still arguing it's a double-triple because it's three men (triple) working together to powerbomb two men (double), and that the version where it's just three men working to powerbomb one man is known as a triple powerbomb, it makes sense to just saying a version doubling the number of men being powerbombed would just be called a double triple powerbomb.

Next up for the Shield: reunited 3MB

The TRUE test

And that group has TWO world champs right now!
---

What's funny is that Miztourage are much more the hounds of Justice lately

Rightfully burying Enzo, rightfully dunking on Kurt for being an absentee father, rightfully arguing that Miz gets overlooked despite all his success

Where's the justice?
---

It's all about the distribution of labor, man.

In the land of opportunity.

A double play is two outs in one play.

A double triple powerbomb is two men in one triple powerbomb.

Clearly it checks out.
---

Maybe instead of Reigns vs Lesnar at Wrestlemania for the WWE Universal World Championship of the Universe, we could get Ambrose vs Reigns at Wrestlemania for naming rights to Shield triple team moves.
---

Also, out of curiosity: how many baby faces are worth cheering apart from AJ and Braun? (Though I guess Braun is still a tweener?)

Feel like a good number of the roster is either directionless or stuck in an awful program right now. Like, large even for WWE standards. Maybe the plan to get Roman over is to make it so you can't like anyone else
---

I mentioned it before, but at least every current feud on SD has the more popular wrestler as the face. That's a big part in making it easier to watch, when they aren't constantly fighting AGAINST the crowd
---

Actually I think I like the tag divisions in both, storylines haven't been great but the matches have at least been consistently good?

Think they just need like one more tag team each
---

I would also laugh my ass off if, the night after the PPV, Seth turns on them again

Roman being the one to turn on them would literally set him up tobe the top heel for a decade. Just throw the title on him and let him crush
---

This SHIELD reunion is actually the final step in the long subtle heel turn for Roman.

A ways into the match Roman will turn on Ambrose and Rollins, taking them both out, then take on and defeat Miztourage 1 vs 3 using nothing but Superman Punches and spears. Then he will stand in victory as the boos rain down.

Charlotte's big boot might be the worst finisher I've seen in a long time
---

Worse than Natural Selection?

Strife2 posted...

Worse than Natural Selection?

Yes. Atleast that looked like something. This is a boot to the chest on anybody that isn't Sasha or Bliss size.

Also, called Roode/Ziggles.
---

What about the Rearview?
---

"Atleast that looked like something."

Shit is a thing.
---

NBIceman posted...

What about the Rearview?

I buy the Rearview more because for as dumb as it looks, it's the person effectively running straight into her full bodyweight.

Charlotte isn't taller than everybody else or stronger looking than everybody else enough to make it work.
---

Who uses the Rearview?

I know Naomi uses the She Calls That The Rearview.
---

They're really making Owens look really strong so he seems like a contender for... Shane McMahon.
---

I don't get why Owens would be remotely scared of Shane at all. Like why would he flee from him

Oh man, did Dolph use Taker's entrance tonight?

I was just thinking that would be the ultimate troll move and I see the results that he actually did it.

Reminder we were once in line for a competitive Shane vs Brock match
---

Also, I hope Drew Gulak appears on 205 Live tonight to apologize for his condoning of Mustafa Ali's Imploding 450 Splash. As bad as Enzo may be, betraying your morality like that is horrible, Gulak.

Feet on the Ground, Safe and Sound!
---

Also I have clearly been under a rock for a long time but tonight was the first time I had heard Bobby Roode's entrance.

the thing is that no one believed it and we instantly knew it was dolph
---

Shield doing the fist thing will be cheers with scattered boos, entrance will be cheers with scattered boos, roman hot tag is audible boos, and we will hear lets go roman roman sucks chants still

basically, cheering for the shield despite roman, but when hes singled out they will boo

Also I was either dreaming or half conscious in bed last night, inspired by @eaedwards6400 's tew stuff and my hardon for stables


Bray Wyatt next week gets a vignette "I was a god! I held powers [shots of ghost summoning, uhh anything else that he did supernaturally], I had followers [shots of Luke, Rowan and Braun], I had the whole world in my hands [summoning children] but since I have lost my way... [shot of him getting pinned lots], I'm sorry sister abigail [shot of burning house] but I will rebuild the wyatt family..."

week after, curt hawkins is backstage after a loss, he's tired of it, turns and sees a wyatt family pamphlet.

a week or two after that, he comes out to the wyatt family music by himself in a new wyatt family-ish look, dominates and finally wins a match, after the match, pledges loyalty to the wyatt family

over the next few weeks, slow more people (unused jobbers) join after losing meaning and finding a pamphlet... maybe kalisto is tired of not showing up on raw... comes out in new look/music, with curt hawkins at ringside, and dominates. heath and rhyno, maybe. Bayley doesnt understand the boos and tries to find meaning, rtruth is looking for a religion...

he gathers a team of jobbers who are now dominating matches, one night he finally returns with a stable of 4-5 wrestlers, and we have a new wyatt family. and over time, others see this and are tempted to join

they were pretty silent, and once he came out he didnt really look like taker anyways
---

I think if Dolph had started this stupid gimmick with his Taker thing from this week and had Roode cut him off immediately, this build actually would've been really awesome. Cause yeah no one was buying it after 3 weeks of this previous, and his promo was actually kinda good this week. I was rolling when he cut Roode off towards the end and was like "JUST REMEMBER... YOU WILL RESTT.... IN..."-- Roode didn't let him finish but it was hilarious.

I mean I know, they wanted to stall 3 weeks, but I think literally just being off TV all that time would've been better than the previous weeks and it would've made the Taker thing unexpected too.

As someone who attended a CHIKARA show with roughly 7 other people in a Knights of Columbus hall in 2007, I'm offended that I wasn't tagged in that.

As someone who hasn't been watching for months and only flicked it on tonight as I had nothing else to watch, I can confirm that the Dolph segment caught me out. I couldn't believe Taker would come back out of retirement for a random Smackdown. Was only once he started getting towards the ring I realized something looked off and was kinda pissed the announcers blurted out it's Dolph before he even got to the ring. Because I thought how the fuck can they tell that's Dolph from where they are and where he's currently stood. Had no idea about the gimmick though

I really hope I get the chance to go to a CHIKARA show someday. If they even get within like 3 hours of us we will go.

Yeeees. This just needs to become a running gag.
---

If it's deliberately happened twice, I'd say it already is
---

I need like weekly moments of Gulak interacting with CHIKARA alums.
---

I think it's kinda funny that he seems to slowly be winning Evans over
---

So apparently Vince is PISSED at the Bullet Club invasion of Raw

LOL dude it was a fucking homage
---

Wasn't Vince the one who said that if he had been in charge of WCW during the DX Invasion he would have let them in?
---

I still want the alternate reality where Meng beats the living shit out of Shawn Michaels.
---

He also said he was never going to acknowledge the thing Bischoff was doing where he challenged him to fights because why give him ratings

Meng should have just been a complete shoot wrestler and taken all the titles.
---

Hey look I would never say anything negative about Meng, so I won't.
---

I was watching a thing recently where Flair comments over his Royal Rumble win. "Here's me running away from Meng. No pretending there, he glares at you and you get away from him"
---

Meng is the best

WWE needs to do a Meng documentary.
