My guilty pleasure - WWE

[ToolFanFromWayBack]

Have they always announced Nia Jax's weight before the match?

yes, since her debut.

Wow, never noticed that. I quite enjoyed tonight’s show (minus the overly long Elias bit). Samoa Joe v RR was 100 times better than Lesnar v RR. There was actual wrestling in a main event after 2 pretty crappy bouts in the last 2 PPVs.

i thought the PPV was garbage except the 1st match and to a smaller extent the Bliss/Jax match. Rollins/Miz tore it down (Tyson Kidd produced the match).

the rest was bad. Carmella is the worst champion in a long time and Jinder Mahal was champ! she's awful.

i thought the main event was bad too. rest holds 3.25 hrs into the PPV? uuuugh. speaking of rest holds, that's all Charlotte/Carmella was (i bet on the count that Carmella sucks at what she does).
This opening line to this review pretty much sums up my thoughts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F6jg1myVrQ

I rifled through so many variations of codes they have used... WWENYC, WWENEWYORK, WWENXT, NXTLIVE, NXTNYC... and I didn't bother to try WWENY. stupid me.

got 3D collectors tickets like a sucka.

[MJGallicchio]

We just grabbed tickets in sec 17. Didn't want to go overboard since we're likely spending the afternoon at Other Half and we'll be kinda drunk by the time we get in anyway.

[xangelx]

Weird, just went on and there's nothing on sale. Wahhhh

[cotis]

tomorrow presale is WWEBC for those who want.

[MJGallicchio]

There's still tickets showing for me under WWENY. It's coming up sold out on my phone, but through my computer it's working.

Smackdown Live will move to Fox beginning October 2019 and will mark a three-fold increase over what NBCUniversal is currently paying. Rumor is the deal is for 5 years and $1 billion. If Smackdown Live is getting a billion, I wonder what NBCUniversal is paying to retain Monday Night Raw?

[Creation88]

been a fan forever and i cannot believe they got $1 BILLION for Smackdown. That is insane to me.

There's rumors it's going to go to 3 hrs too.

Yup, and it may move from Tuesdays back to Fridays. I think that'll be a big mistake.

So Fox has a billion for Smackdown, but can't afford Lucifer. Stupid Fox.

Fox can afford WWE because they cut Lucifer, Brooklyn 99, etc.

SD will be live on Fridays and is the new "A-show". you'll see stacked roster and best matches on FOX rather than PPV and RAW in future, due to this.

I think it's great for them, make the money. my stock purchased back in 02 for $7 has never looked better.

So it will go back to prerecorded?

nope...my guess is:

Friday: SD live TV & RAW house show
Saturday: SD & RAW house shows
Sunday: house shows (or PPV)
Monday: RAW live TV & SD house show
Tuesday: SD & RAW house shows
Wednesday: off
Thursday: off
