@ice1517  
you have to give credit to the wwe to have this surprise sprung with NO hitches.
 
the colter bait and switch was genius.
 
though can you imagine if one of the previous US open challenges, the UNDERTAKER was the one who answered the call? It doesn’t make sense but the time that it takes for taker to do his entrance would probably be enough time for #TakerUSopenchallenge to trend (correct usage? not really familiar with the #)

@OptimusPrimevil  
Yeah, props to wwe for keeping it a surprise.
 
Also, Braun Strowman looks like someones caw of bray wyatt

@ice1517  
ha ha!
 
and nice that the spanish announcers finally upgraded their table with nintendium made ones.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I still want that as a wrestlemania match: JBL, Michale Cole, Jerry Lwaler, Booker T and bryan Saxton vs the spanish announce team

now that someone has pointed it out (at whatculture), i’m interested to see miz vs rusev just so people will talk about who has had it better in their life in the wwe more than their match (it all boils down to maryse vs lana)

@OptimusPrimevil  
Speaking of the Miz and <aryse, I find it funny that both of them are good looking people, yet Miz’s dad is….. well, Miz’s dad

@ice1517  
I haven’t seen the pic of miz’ dad…
 
really disheartening to learn that some people are such dicks. rusev got injured and some reactions are like “toughen up big baby, you get to go home to lana!”

@OptimusPrimevil  
yeah, like I said, wrestling fans aren’t known for being the smartest

@ice1517  
there’s not smart and just being plain jealous. then there’s the mix of both (“dump rusev and go out with me” - anonymous internet guy)

@OptimusPrimevil  
yeah,those people are dicks.
 
Also since || Alberto was accompanied with Zeb, Jack Swagger should come out with Ricardo||

@ice1517  
i dunno. wasn’t ricardo released from the company earlier than alberto? need to see few more episodes to see how they’ll sell this mex-america thing.

@OptimusPrimevil  
huh, didn’t know that.
 
Also, since Roman won the #1 contenders match, looks like he’s gonna face Seth and Survivor Series.

@ice1517  
true. though with the authority down to just one man now, seth/roman whoever wins will be easy pickings to the european union (if they formally make it a stable now) enough for sheamus to cash in

@OptimusPrimevil  
I take t that the new team of Barret, Rusev and sheamus?

@ice1517  
yup. waiting for cesaro to complete it XP

@OptimusPrimevil  
I thought he be nutural

@ice1517  
i’m thinking their arrangement would be if they help sheamus win, they all get a shot at the title. the others screw the current challenger until they all get put in a PPV match (triple threat or fatal four way depending on the number). either way, the title still retained by the group.

@OptimusPrimevil  
Either of those things happening is fine with me. I’d hope Seth would keep his title though!

@Flareblitzfury  
we really haven’t seen seth do wonders with the title but that’s just SOP for being a heel champion though. being a face champion usually brings out a better performance (clean wins as opposed to the standard “chicken-shit heel champ” wins)

@OptimusPrimevil  
Yeah, and it makes me wonder how long or if he becomes a face.

@Flareblitzfury  
until he distances him from the authority or a much eviler than thou appears that he becomes face by default?

@OptimusPrimevil  
Hmmmm, both of those would take a while, but I think distancing himself from the authority would be the most likely.

You know, this brings up an intrseting point: since we keep saying that most faces would do better as heels, what heels would be better as faces?

@ice1517  
it depends on the situation. sheamus as a face worked when he’s up against strong/monster heels like Hall of Pain henry. against anyone weaker, it doesn’t suit him.

@OptimusPrimevil  
True, going up against monster heels is a good way to get a face reaction
