Night 2 Predictions:

- Drew beats Seth, Damien successfully cashes in. Drew has been a great “woe is me” heel and having the belt for 15 seconds before losing it would only add to that story.

- Logan Paul wins tonight in some cheap ass way but Randy and KO (RKO can be a legit team name) turn attention as a duo towards Waller and Theory for the tag belts

- Rock turns on Roman for speering him. Sets up storyline for next years Wrestlemania. Winner gets the Ula Fall

Cody wins and Bloodline suffers an identity crisis. Only bummer is my guess is this sends Cody to Smackown unless belts change brands.
I think Cody is going to work both shows for the summer and eventually end up on Raw. Netflix is going to get to pull all the strings.

Agreed with everything else. I only saw the main last night but I really think Triple H is going to put together a massive night tonight.

Wow - they let Sami pay tribute to El Generico with a Brainbustaaaaa!!!.

El Generico at whatever Mexican orphanage he's currently at is smiling (assuming his corps isn't lying in a ditch somewhere)


I'm old enough to remember when Sami was bUrIeD after Elimination Chamber last year...

NGL - I'm looking forward to this very thing almost as much as I am to Cody completing the story. His reaction is going to be priceless in the immediate aftermath as well as for months following.

One thing watching A&E Roman doc and brought up in press conference is that he's on medication for his leukemia for life. I like alot of people brought up him giving Cena crap about being part time to him doing the same thing was hypocritical but I never thought about because of his past illness that he can't physically do a full-time schedule.

Plus like they did with Brock wwe with Roman realizes that fewer appearances make the appearances he does make all the more special.

I know you wrestling haters think you look cool when you do this but it really comes off as insecure and pathetic. Do you feel the need to talk **** every time somebody talks about an action movie? Look down on all forms of entertainment centered around scripted/choreographed fighting and stunts or just one?
Just looked dumb. I'm not a wrestling hater. I enjoy watching wrestling. If that's what you want to throw your money at, cool.

Yeah, most of my disgust with Roman is just a work in my own head - mostly because he's been the champion for going on 4 years straight with that and the Bloodline story having grown completely stale - and him really should have losing it last year against Cody.

In reality, for dealing with a lifelong condition, the dude looks like he's in the best shape of his life, and when he's actually in the ring, he goes all out.

And the stuff about lifting his family up isn't just a line. The usos and solo are better wrestlers because of being associated in storylines with him.

And wwe finally realizing the money in Roman was as a heel not a face.

My bad I apologize for jumping to conclusions. Developed a short fuse over the years with the drive by haters popping in occasionally.

Glad to have a guy repping Iowa in his intro but I've been ready for someone besides Seth to be champion.

The singing is old, the over the top wardrobe is stale too.

That being said Drew does nothing for me either. Hoping for a Drew win then immediate cash in by Priest.
