I just wish they'd have someone f***ing competent at the helm so we get good Sentai adaptaions again.

And it sounds like the sale talks are back on according to CNBC. Saudis, RMT/Endeavor, and assorted private equity are at the head. And apparently Nick Khan made comments that Vince would be willing to give up power in order to sell.
A certain American Dragon had to learn lying from somewhere.

Also, Rhodes hasn't lost since his return. At all.
You CANNOT convince me that he's not dethroning Roman at WM. CANNOT.

I'd have kept Solo unbeaten until after WM, honestly.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}A site called GiveMeSport has an article with tweets showing what is supposedly a leaked design for a new world title belt with Cody's logo on the centerplate. Not sure how reliable any of it is but I want to put it out there for the record. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Looking it up I don't buy it. It really just looks fan made to me, between the like-the-winged-eagle-but-with-nowhere-near-as-much-detail shape of it, the weird half side plates, the white strap when these days WWE generally seems to see that as specifically a thing for women's belts, and the total lack of the name of the belt on it. It looks like a decent fan creation but doesn't at all look professional. {Spoiler}Still, given how it's pretty obvious that Cody's winning, it's something I could see them doing just with some modifications.

Doesn't really matter to me as long as they don't get the King gimmick. Duuuude King Dominic would be f***ing money. He would take it 100% literally, and it would give him something fun to do to keep his character up. Imagine the hijinks! As much as I REALLY do not care for Dom, he'd knock it out of the park. May end up actually being the best King since King Booker if all goes right.

Asuka destroys Charlotte. Think Lesnar steamrolling Cena that one time type domination. Charlotte never gets a chance to get out of the blocks. Decisive win. Puts over the ferocity of her KANA persona. Then she goes on a dominant tear as champion, and all the while Iyo is breaking off from Damage CTRL, eventually had a blow off match with Bayley, wins, then is built up until the summer and becomes #1 contender, and at Summerslam we get Asuka vs. Iyo for the championship. Poor Rhea.

2006 Finlay vs. Tribal Chief Roman Reigns vs. prime Masahiro Chono vs. 1970s NWA champ Harley Race vs. prime Terry Funk vs. Bam Bam Bigelow, one-hour Iron Man match.
Yes, 2006 Finlay. He was so goddamn good during that timeframe.

Really stopped caring about this WM/10 same. I'll watch it for sure and it will likely still be a very good show, but I just want them to get through it already so we can see which direction they go in after. Part of it is that it feels VERY predictable, which isn't a bad thing exactly as it's gonna bring some massive freshening to things (except for the RAW Women's title scene, of course). The other part is outside the Bloodline vs. Cody/Sami/KO story, the build hasn't even been just there. It's barely showed up.

Has to be someone who hasn't been a top champ yet on the main roster. Period.
Which means for the men, it's either Solo, Jey, Dom, or Theory for heels or Montez for faces. For the women, only two people it should be and those two are either Shayna or IYO. Personally I'd go with Jey and IYO. IYO could be positioned to go after Bianca or ASUKA and Jey winning could work into the Uso Trio punting Roman from the Bloodline after WM if they go that route.

One criticism I have about NXT is it desperately needs fresh blood in the men's division. Same faces for the past 18 months and even the UK guys who came over have been around for years. Where is the men's division Sol Ruca? Probably where we least expect it.

They may realize that if they blow off Edge & Finn and Rey & Dom there might not be much further to take Judgement Day. She is 100% getting cheered over Charlotte. They could re-do the fake eye spot on the steps right before her match and she'd still get cheered like she's 1988 Hogan against Charlotte Flair. The only downside is that she's pretty much the best heel they have. Given that Charlotte has ALSO been getting surprisingly pretty good face reactions during this feud, not really sure about that.
