    Seth in a quick bs backstage segment just cut a better promo than Reigns ever did in any segment.

    Owens/Zayn up next.

    Picked Owens to win tonight but that's only cuz I think the feud will go on even longer lol, if the feud ends tonight then Zayn will probably win.

    havent kept up the best

    I'd say whoever won last time will lose this match?

    Then Summerslam will be someone going over

    I still don't understand why Sami was drafted like 6 sports ahead of Owens

    dude don't even try reasoning with yourself

    the draft choices completely break kayfabe and make no god forsaken sense



    they didnt even explain why none of the NXT champions were taken

    Samoa Joe plows through the entire NXT roster? doesn't even get drafted.

    Owens in-ring heel mannerisms are some of the best I've ever seen....years in the indy's have taught him how to be a true jerk and Triple H must give him full freedom in the ring

    That being said, both of these guys are overrated workers. They have great basics, but there are better workers in the company. IMO

    Notice the commentary referencing Sami's shoulder injury?

    "Sami injured that shoulder in the match against Cena, probably should've ended the match"

    "Kevin Owens takes credit for that injury"

    Good continuity by Cole and JBL (or whoever are talking to them in their headsets)

    I agree about Sami, I've always thought he was overrated

    But Owens is the total package imo...great talke(Owens on commentary is f---in awesome), great worker, plus there's a large amount of his move set WWE doesn't allow him to do that would him shine more

    He's a great total package for sure. Strictly talking worker, people overrate him. I've seen people consider him a wrestling god due to his reputation and abilities given his body shape. He's good, not extraordinary.

    you talking about on the apron?

    wasn't a brainbuster man just a suplex, Vince would never allow a brainbuster

    might've had some torque on it but I'm pretty sure brainbustah is on the banned move list

    that was Sami's move in the indys and he hasnt been allowed to do it on WWE programming
