Read a rumor that someone could be turning during Super Showdown in the Shield/Dogs of War match and it's unclear who it could be which is what the company wanted. Take that as a grain of salt. I'm guessing it's either going to be Ambrose, McIntyre or Ziggler. I did notice Ziggler looking sympathetic these past few weeks. Maybe the Shield win after Dolph eats the pin, then he gets beaten down by Drew and Strowman for losing. Dolph and Drew are the Tag Team Champions, so it would be pretty stupid having Drew kick the crap out of Ziggler.

The best part of that poster is it fixes WWE misspelling showdown. Not really when you consider the belt obscures the dash.

So being in New York, Show-Down starts at 5 AM, and I am actually going to do my podcast for this event, and then I'm going back to bed.

I'll have to work until 10:30 am and the show starts at 11 here. Enough time to pick up a pizza and get home. This is so perfect I'm sure something will go wrong.

It feels a little surreal, we are a mere 10 hours away from this going LIVE!

In my opinion, two things need to happen at this event, otherwise this becomes a glorified house-show that WWE promoted for weeks on television, which is my problem with the Greatest Royal Rumble-nothing mattered. 1) Lashley and Cena should lose to give Elias and Owens a push and afterwards, Lashley should turn on Cena. The reason Lashley can give is that he had endure both Elias and Owens on his own, in the weeks leading up to Super Show-Down while Cena was away, safe at home. Lashley heel turn will him more interesting and it can lead to a Cena vs Lashley program, which Lashley wins to get a big push. Also, it will allow Lio Rush to become a heel on RAW and on 205 Live, bringing some consistency to his character. 2) Also, since RAW and Smackdown are the shows most of the general public cares about, a RAW or Smackdown title needs to have a new champion. Ideally, that should be Samoa Joe winning the WWE Title, because another unsuccessful championship opportunity is going to further ruin Samoa Joe, and ironically, by winning, AJ Styles will also be badly hurt in public eye. He is already starting to lose the fans.

I suppose I could go to bed early and set my alarm early to watch at 2 AM, but I have way too much to do tonight and then in the morning. I'll watch it in the afternoon and try to avoid spoilers.

Dolph and Drew are the Tag Team Champions, so it would be pretty stupid having Drew kick the crap out of Ziggler. It probably won't go this route, but Drew/partner vs. Dolph/partner for the belts would have my interest.

So this is how it feels to be an Australian gearing up for a North American PPV.

Doesn’t look like there will be matches bumped to it. (So the key to main card Cruiserweight Championship matches... hold them outside the US)

Walking around Melbourne there is a staggering amount of children in Balor Club shirts. Like more than any other shirt I've seen here. Also lots of adults wearing Bullet Club variants who... behave exactly as you'd expect.

6pm for those of us in the Far East so a rare treat. Card has shaped up nicely, be interesting to see if Australian crowd march to the sound of their own drum as British and Canadians have been known to do.

I'm not going to bother. Only thing on this show that has me even slightly interested is Joe winning the title, and I don't even see that happening on an actual pay-per-view, much less on a foreign house show.
