That's because they ponied up the dough to hold it there - $100-200 million is being reported
And WWE still ballsed it up with an ad featuring female wrestlers
charlotte flair has been pulled from the uk/euro tour as she is under going more dental surgery due to having some teeth ko'd by carmella
Vince McMahon,Triple H & CM Punk should bang their heads,bury the hatchet & bring Punk back to WWE.Punk looked like a fish up a tree at UFC 225 the past weekend where he simply couldn't make the transition to MMA in his 2nd straight loss to rookie Mike Jackson with UFC boss Dana White calling time on Punk's UFC career. There have been numerous wrestlers that walked out on WWE (vowing never to work for the company again) & came back ie Undertaker,Del Rio,Hogan,Ultimate Warrior,Angle etc so bridges can be built.
With Punk unable to make the transition to MMA it certainly puts into perspective the likes Brock Lesnar (who become UFC Heavyweight champ) & Bobby Lashley (who has one nearly a dozen fights in Bellator) who both successfully made the wrestling to MMA transition with only a limited number of fights (they both had stellar amateur wrestling careers).
Vince would rather bring back Hogan the racist than Punk the rebel, though. And I can't imagine HHH would want him back even to job him out to Cass.
Not to mention the bad blood about that court case.
I suspect if Punk can find a media niche, he would be a lot more productive.
feck me, nxt take over Chicago was great. MITB is going to be outshone by this. everyone was fantastic regardless of their results. Ciampa is probably one of the best heel wrestlers at the moment, it would be interesting he has this same level of performance against another wrestler, the crowd was giving him proper heat and backing undisputed era.
They have announced the UK BRAND shows now Its going to be named NXTUK and there will be a womens title and a Tag Title to. And the GM is Johnny Saint
^^
So blatantly done in response to itv world of sport finally launching about a month ago simple as that. Interesting to see who WWE sign for this Uk division, especially which female wrestlers they sign (the Male wrestlers will be the ones from the tournament), presume they can’t or won’t sign the wrestlers who are doing world of sport which rules out the likes of Viper, Kay Lee Ray & Bea Priestley.
They had 4 female wrestlers wrestling yesterday in London
Toni Storm
Jinny Couture
Isla Dawn
Killer Kelly
So will be these 4 plus the likes of
Lana Austin
Nixon Newell
Nikki Cross
Leah Owens
Kasey Owens
And so on the night after MITB ppv Seth Rollins drops his belt to Dolph Ziggler on Raw which didn't make a lot of sense to me,if Rollins has a legitimate injury & requires time off Elias should have won the strap at MITB.I like Ziggler who I feel over the last few years has had the rough end of the pineapple in terms of storylines & treatment by the WWE hierachy but I reckon Drew McIntyre should have won the IC belt & given him the momentum push.
Maybe I'm alone on this but I'd certainly like to see Bobby Lashley vs Brock Lesnar before Lesnar parts company for UFC shores with the clamour of them both fighting in MMA & having decorated amateur wrestling careers (& I'm sure that they've never fought before).Sure Lashley isn't the best mic talker but he was the natural successor to Lesnar when he left WWE in the noughties.Lashley unlike Lesnar is content with being a full-time wrestler & he'd benefit with having Heyman as his mouthpiece (plus I'm fed up of the continuous Big Dog push).
What's happened to the Authors of Pain on Raw exactly?.
