July 6th is too late for the Great American Bash. Sorry but I'm being that guy. Jokes on you, I’m still going be drunk from the 4th so it counts |

So now after they’ve had the unsanctioned match with all the crazy bumps and spots, we’re running it back under normal rules.  Lol, its like Foley vs Flair following up their hardcore match with a regular wrestling match. Except, y'know, less sad because Cole and O'Reilly aren't has beens that should have retired 15 years ago. |

He basically said the first match was about pain, just wanting to hurt each other. this one is about pride, who is the better wrestler?..Cole or O'Reilly. It make sense. I can see being annoyed and/or bored of seeing them face again though. That's always a fair point imo even if the matches are great. some people don't want to keep seeing. |

Is it just me or does it feel like the fanbase as a whole just isn't amped right now for Cole/KOR 2? I have my reasons for thinking that (and honestly I'm indifferent towards it) but those 2 have lost a lot of momentum and it's somewhat mindboggling

In a non pandemic world, this is where sending some guys to NXTUK for a taping or two could have worked We was supposed to get WALTER/Finn before the Pandemic and I think someone like Cole could have used that as well |

And the NXT live audience seems to really just wants to cheer Cole. |

Like legit WWE had it right there to have Kross vs KOR for Kyle to become the guy then you could eventually get back to Cole, but instead they are so focused on making Kross work they made Kyle come to a screeching halt momentum wise. |

Yeah, it is a many fold problem It's not as much about making Kross, but there is merit to it. They had him beat Finn clean twice which no one did and they trying to make that shit work. Tho i do think Dunne is the guy that will take down Kross If anything Kyle should probably got a quick run with the title which would led to Cole turning on him. They do the unsanctioned fight for the title, KOR wins but his body is beat up in the process. Have Kross beat him and then you have a journey back to the top after he tasted success. Right now it just looks bad because he took two clean L's to Finn and then he while he got the almost visual tap out for the title, he got choked out instead It is the little things they are missing that compounds it |

Cole should've stayed face. It was working.
