    Yeah we’ll just use this for takeover @Kon

    Only looking forward to Styles/Joe and Rollins/Ziggler. Probably won’t even watch those live.

    Gonna take a wild guess and assume I’m the only one excited bout Alexa/Ronda lol.

    This is one of the few SS matches I'll seek out and watch. 1) because Alexa is unbelievably hot and 2) because the two Ronda Rousey matches I've watched have actually been good wrestling matches (I'm still trying to understand that one)

    How's the build been for AJ/Joe? I'll definitely be interested in seeing that. Those guys have put on some classics with eachother in the past.

    I also legit don’t know what’s gonna happen in Alexa/Ronda. I mean it seems pretty certain that 1. Ronda will win the title at some point and 2. If Alexa wins here it won’t be clean, but I don’t know what the result will be.

    They may hold off on giving Ronda the title for now, maybe Bliss will pull some shady tactics and win, or maybe Natalya costs Ronda the match ‘by mistake.’ Ronda will certainly get plenty of offense in, while Bliss will look like the typical coward heel WWE always goes with lol.

    *edit* @Big Dangerous unfortunately I haven’t watched smackdown at all recently so I dunno how the build has been, but probably pretty good since I’ve been hearing that SD has been solid lately.

    @Kon you familiar with AJ and Joe's TNA work? (Specifically together)

    Those guys were some of the most innovative hot talents of the 2000s. It's really surreal to see them facing eachother in wwe for the title after all these years. AJ is one of my top 5 or so favorite wrestlers ever

    I’m not actually, I hardly watched any TNA stuff ever except I used to have that x division DVD or whatever the h--- it was called.

    I’m probably missing a ton of good stuff but meh, just don’t wanna get around to it for now. But yea I am curious to see what they can do on Sunday, hoping Joe wins and kinda think he will.

    AJ vs Chris Daniels vs Samoa Joe

    The greatest multi-man match in the history of pro wrestling as far as I'm concerned

    They practice them spot for spot for a long time

    AJ/Joe build has been very good. Joe is cutting awesome, personal promos every week and even if it's kinda hokey (Joe read a letter supposedly from AJ's wife) both are so believable that it doesn't matter.

    Yeah sometime before Sunday I gotta watch the promo vids they have for this AJ/Joe feud, sounds like it's been good and i wanna know the story, see the highlights of it etc before the PPV. That AJ/Joe vid was great by the way, d---.

    Also I saw talk of Alexa/Ronda possibly headlining on Sunday, I guess Alexa was asked about it in an interview too...It seems possible if WWE is gonna have Reigns win without a Braun or KO cash in cuz I dunno if they'd wanna end the show with just Reigns winning and the crowd booing like crazy, cuz that's what it'd be lol. If Ronda is gonna win on Sunday that seems like how they could end it too, but I dunno I still think Brock and Roman will main event.

    Revisionist history

    Act like something was like it actually was not

    Trish is treated like some kind of legendary female for wwe and a precursor for the revolution...uh no she had like 2 good matches her entire career
