Reviews · The Indy Corner
Last week, AEW ticked back up in the ratings as hoped. With their business model, solid numbers are great, so it’s good to see that this current age of being spoiled for wrestling content has a chance at lasting beyond short-term.
Ambrose-Rollins Shield Reunion Already In A Pickle With Fast Title Shot
The fans in attendance nearly came unglued when Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins finally brought their fists together in the middle of the ring — the old Shield salute — officially marking their reunion in one of the great long term WWE stories of modern times. After they reunited, where Raw tag team champions Sheamus and Cesaro had come out to attack them beforehand, Kurt Angle came out and announced the two teams would meet at SummerSlam with the titles on the line.
Is GM Kurt Angle Enough Or Is In-Ring Return Necessary?
There likely was not a single fan unhappy to see Kurt Angle make his long-awaited return to WWE the night after WrestleMania 33, when he became the new general manager of Raw. For the first time in nearly 11 years, Angle’s classic theme graced the arena of a WWE event. Fans nearly blew the roof off the venue followed by the infamous “You suck” chant, creating a memorable, heartwarming moment no spectator will forget. Rumors had been widespread prior to the official return.
WWE's Flawed Methods Have Watered Down SummerSlam Main Event
While SummerSlam as an event is the second or third biggest and most highly anticipated WWE show of the year, as the card continues to be filled with matches, only one really sticks out as having genuine drawing potential and hype: Four of the current top stars on the entire roster, not to mention four of the biggest, baddest guys, all squaring off in a match against each other for the Universal Championship.
Does Any Road To Redemption For Bayley's Ruined Character Exist?
Bayley has been on the main roster for less than an entire year, and somehow WWE has managed to make the impossible possible. One of the simplest babyfaces on the entire roster has been thrashed and mangled to the point where fans are genuinely turning on her. Luckily for Bayley — in a sense — she is being forced to take time off to recuperate from a shoulder injury.
Time Is Right For Asuka To Leave NXT But Not Lose Undefeated Streak
One Fatal Four-Way match aside, WWE SummerSlam has noticeably less hype and anticipation surrounding it than years past. That is even more applicable to the event which immediately precedes it: NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III — arguably NXT‘s biggest event of the year. Furthermore, no one seems to be talking about what could be the biggest news coming out of NXT that weekend.
Mahal-Nakamura And The Uphill Battle Of A Worthless Title
In an ironic, and in some ways cruel turn of events, the first-time dream match between John Cena and Shinsuke Nakamura free on SmackDown was merely a No. 1 contender contest for the real big match ahead. Now Nakamura goes on to challenge WWE Champion Jinder Mahal in one of the top matches of SummerSlam. The result of the match became a foregone conclusion once news broke that Cena was going to have a major role in an upcoming “Transformers” spin-off movie.
Is Brock Lesnar on way out and can WWE afford to lose him again?
Depending on whether you are a casual fan or a fan who keeps up with behind-the-scenes news, Raw’s opening promo Monday with Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman was either just business as usual or an intriguing blend of kayfabe and reality over recent events and rumors swirling around. The central message interwoven in the promo was the idea of Lesnar leaving WWE. Again, something which was either just part of the storyline or direct reference to real happenings outside of the script.
Balor's 2016 Injury Lingers With Unforeseen Nonphysical Career Effects
Time is apathetic, and it does not play favorites. Whether time is in your favor or your cruelest mistress, it is often difficult to place any meaning behind it aside from pure coincidence. When you look at Finn Balor‘s career in the last year you are looking at a wild series of ups and downs. And when you look for rhyme or reason behind any of the ascents and descents, unfortunately for him it all seems to simply rest in being in the right place at the right time, or the wrong one.
WWE Continues To Waste Big-Time Matches With Cena Vs Nakamura
There is a reason professional wrestling has been such a longtime, successful entertainment business. The sheer level of control owners and bookers have over the product is completely unfounded in any other professional sporting medium. This is of course because wrestling is “fake” in the traditional sense — a product with predetermined results and fictional characters in an almost theater-like sporting presentation. But that is exactly what its power is too.
Does Ambrose-Rollins reunion hold substance or just cheap nostalgic play?
Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose officially teamed together for the first time in over three years Monday in WWE Raw’s main event. Once united in maybe the most popular stable in modern wrestling history, turned longtime bitter rivals, the pair has begun a brand new chapter in a storyline that goes back nearly five years. Unfortunately, a situation like this begs the question: Are we really doing something here? For where there is smoke, there is usually fire.
WWE Raw Main Event Scene Healthiest It's Been In Years
As we make our way down the road to SummerSlam, one thing should have become completely clear to fans: the top guys of Raw are at a peak the company has not seen in many years. Word is out that Vince McMahon plans to have Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns main-event the biggest event of the summer. Under normal circumstances, that would not be shocking nor really big news.
What Brock Lesnar UFC Return Rumors Could Mean For WWE Career
The rumor mills have been active in recent days regarding Brock Lesnar potentially making another return to UFC. Rumors whose timing fits the bill quite well, as such events would undoubtedly hold major implications on his professional wrestling career with WWE. Reports came out Wednesday that Lesnar has refiled himself into the USADA drug testing pool — a move which would make him officially unretired from MMA and turn the clock back on for his suspension dating back to July 2016.
Angle-Jordan And The Failed Soap Opera Mindset Vs Simple Booking
Seven weeks of slow-burn hype and tease led to the grand reveal that Jason Jordan was the long lost son of Kurt Angle. Unsurprisingly, the live WWE crowd reaction was largely dead and the whole thing was a target of jokes on social media. WWE tends to have a hard time keeping plans and secrets locked down. So those occasions like Angle’s big secret where WWE makes it a mission to keep the payoff shut tight until it actually happens naturally draw a lot of interest.
Has US Championship Officially Become SmackDown's Real Main Event?
It all started with a completely unexpected title change at a WWE house show. A.J. Styles became the new U.S. champion, defeating Kevin Owens at an untelevised WWE show in Madison Square Garden. Then in a single SmackDown segment, it became clear a much bigger shift in the WWE landscape was taking place before our eyes. The title does not make the man. The man makes the title. Beyond that, the man makes the title, and so do his challengers around him.
Roman Reigns Dwarfed In Raw Segment Alongside Lesnar And Joe
We all know Roman Reigns is Vince McMahon’s guy. We all know the fans have an overwhelming negative reaction to Reigns as a top figure in WWE. And biases undoubtedly have their factor in both, but you cannot deny the simple, blunt truth when it is played out right in front of your eyes. Regardless of what one thinks about Reigns as a performer or as the chosen one to front the company in the coming years, some of that truth was exposed to audiences far and wide on Monday Night Raw.
Strong Signs Point To Hardy Boyz Becoming Broken Once Again
Viewers of Monday Night Raw were privy to the biggest tease of the Broken Hardys gimmick since the Hardy Boyz returned to WWE at WrestleMania earlier this year. Then you take into consideration all the outside factors recently and they seem to be pointing in the same direction. Coming off Great Balls of Fire, the Hardys came out on Raw for a promo. They addressed their loss from the night before against Sheamus and Cesaro.
WWE Must Maintain Samoa Joe's New Aura After Lesnar Match
Let us be honest. The chances of Samoa Joe getting the victory over Brock Lesnar at WWE’s Great Balls of Fire are slim to none. That said, let’s also be honest in recognizing WWE struck some gold with Joe upon entering this Lesnar-Joe program. For months, fans of old were so uppity about Joe and his potential on the main roster, while fans newly exposed to Joe just could not see what all the hoopla was about. Well, the last month sure changed all that.
John Cena Going Out In Blaze Of Glory Is Only Way To End Iconic Career
John Cena in 40 years old. With each passing year, he becomes more of a mainstream star, taking extended absences from WWE. The writing is on the wall, and the light which is the end of Cena’s WWE career is visible at the end of the tunnel. He is not going to do this forever, nor should he. We’ve seen legends test the limits of their careers — guys such as Hulk Hogan, Undertaker and Ric Flair. But unlike them, Cena has other avenues to take. Cena’s July 4 return painted his trajectory going forward.
Despite Jokes Great Balls Of Fire Has Biggest Buzz Since WrestleMania
From the day the name was made public, WWE’s Great Balls of Fire has been an ongoing joke among wrestling fans, specifically because of the pay-per-view title. However, the event itself is anything but a joke. Fans would have to go back to WrestleMania 33 to find a WWE event with as much hype and buzz going in. Great Balls of Fire marks the first time in three months a WWE pay-per-view truly feels like a big event, rather than just a glorified episode of Raw.
WWE Missed Out On Easy Opportunities With Women's MITB Rematch
The presentation of WWE’s women’s wrestling has reached heights never seen before. The women are finally being presented as an equal part of the company, rather than a sideshow attraction. However, that has not made the women immune from booking problems which fans have become used to in the WWE. In some sense, it makes it that much more maddening given the huge leaps in other aspects of the promotion.
What It Could Mean If Lesnar-Reigns II Is Changed To SummerSlam
After the plan had been all but set in place since WrestleMania 33 for Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns to have their big rematch the following WrestleMania, it seems Vince McMahon has had a change of heart. “It was confirmed to us that a few weeks ago, probably just before the Roman Reigns interview where he said he wanted a shot at the Brock Lesnar vs. Samoa Joe winner, that plans for SummerSlam on 8/20 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn changed from Lesnar vs.
Column | Baron Corbin was the worst option to win Money in the Bank
Unfortunately for WWE fans, Money in the Bank continued a streak of underwhelming PPV events, occurring far too often with just two weeks separating each of the last three shows. Its beacon of hope, though, was the main event Money in the Bank ladder match which delivered in spades, bringing a happy ending to a show otherwise best left forgotten. But even then, the match was not without its ugly bruise as well.
WWE Smart To Keep Mauro Ranallo With Setup Best For Everyone
The supremely popular Mauro Ranallo is not parting ways with WWE. After being absent from WWE since March, Ranallo himself made the the announcement he will resume work with WWE. Rather than resuming his commentary on SmackDown, though, Ranallo will be making his way to the NXT brand. Looking at the big picture, you could not have found another move that works best for everyone. And finding such a route was the smartest option WWE could have possibly taken.
Enzo And Cass -- What Reason Is There To End A Good Thing?
We have seemingly witnessed the last day where Enzo Amore and Big Cass would be referred to as the tag team “Enzo and Cass.” Raw closed with the reveal after a month of random, mysterious attacks on Enzo and Cass. Like many predicted, it was Cass himself who turned on his partner, blowing up the popular tag team act which stemmed all the way back to NXT. It is a move many predicted would come eventually, but few, if any, thought of it as a good creative move.
SmackDown Women's Division Stuck In Limbo
Many would argue WWE SmackDown’s women’s division is a lot better off than Raw’s, but that is only the case when looking solely at surface level. Once you dig a bit, you find one significant issue on SmackDown’s hands that can only be coasted on for so long. SmackDown’s women’s division is stuck. The division has, in a sense, plateaued and entered a realm of limbo. So much so that even Money in the Bank, which is making big moves for the division, does not appear like it can shed much new light.
Mahal-Orton II | Best path is going all the way and over the top
There is no turning back now. Jinder Mahal is the WWE Champion. Trying to throw it all away accomplishes nothing except making the last two months a complete waste of time. This is the path that was chosen. Now it is time to go all the way and take it to its peak, to actually try to make something of it. At Money in the Bank, the rematch between Mahal and Randy Orton main-events the show, but it has to be treated as abnormal (which is what this whole plan was all along).
Is Lesnar-Joe Bound To Be Bigger Than WWE Originally Expected?
Raw began with WWE swinging for the fences, knowing the public’s attention would largely be on the NBA Finals an hour later. The show immediately began by recapping the events last week between Samoa Joe and Paul Heyman, and then Brock Lesnar’s entrance music hit. Heyman and Lesnar made their way to the ring for every Heyman-Lesnar segment you have ever seen — not that that’s a bad thing: Heyman as the excellent managerial mouthpiece to the always imposing Lesnar silently standing by his side.
What To Do With Elias Samson Now That He's No Longer Drifting?
Puzzlement surely followed with the announcement Elias Samson — formerly known as The Drifter — was going to be among the latest to move from NXT to the main roster in the wake of WrestleMania 33. Sure, The Revival made complete sense as one of the best tag teams ever in NXT, but Samson? His run had been far from anything outstanding. Nonetheless, he’s on the main roster now, and his presence has most certainly been felt.
Laying Low And No Major Feuds Is Best Option For Roman Reigns
For the first time in a long time, Roman Reigns looks to be fluttering in the wind of WWE. In the aftermath of Braun Strowman’s injury which has put him on the shelf for several months, Reigns’ character was left without a clear path. Instead of that being harmful, like it would to most any other WWE performer, it might just be what he needs right now.
Samoa Joe’s character development on path but lacks in-ring development
The first true crowning moment of Samoa Joe’s WWE run finally took place. No, it was not his No. 1 contendership victory at Extreme Rules. Rather, it was the path which began on the heels of that victory, where Joe is finally being given the platform to blossom. Was Joe the best choice for Brock Lesnar’s first title defense next month? Perhaps not, but the benefits have already emerged in spades.
Keeping Rusev Off TV Until Title Program Best Path Forward
For those who haven’t noticed, Rusev has basically been MIA for the last three months. Under most circumstances, this would be bad news. But WWE teased an excellent idea that can make Rusev’s absence more than worth it in the end, as long as a plan remains in place. Rusev was one of the wrestlers who shifted to SmackDown in the “Superstar Shakeup,” along with Lana, but both have yet to make their debut.
New And Different Not Enough To Justify A Mahal Title Reign
Jinder Mahal’s victory over Randy Orton at Backlash, becoming the new WWE champion, has drawn robustly polarizing reactions. The middle ground is noticeably empty. Fans were either glad to see the title change or appalled. Looking solely at the logistics, it is tough to process how anyone could be happy about the booking decision.
WWE’s hyper-focused main event booking exposed with aimless five-way
Extreme Rules is already upon us, but you would hardly guess that based on watching the go-home edition of Raw. Particularly, if you are looking for some sense of direction or solidification heading into what is supposed to be the big main event of the show. Essentially, the entire current main event scene of Raw is competing in a five-way for the Universal title No. 1 contendership.
WWE's Cruiserweight Division Has Become Wrestling Purgatory
The updated WWE cruiserweight division and 205 Live have turned into a disaster. WWE had good intentions in reintroducing a “small man” division to the roster. The division was given prime-time television as part of the weekly Raw broadcast and its own exclusive WWE Network show immediately following SmackDown every week. It is time to face the facts, though. The whole division has become a purgatory for talent and 205 Live is all but a failure of a show. Good intentions were not enough.
Column | WWE should run with newly struck gold in Breezango
There are not many sadder places on the WWE roster than SmackDown’s tag team division, but the last month has seen one team finally breaking that trend. It isn’t ex-fan favorites American Alpha, who everyone expected to lead the division upon arrival. It isn’t the veteran Usos, whose gimmick has certainly brought new light to a team that was on the decline. It’s Breezango, Tyler Breeze and Fandango, a team that was pegged as a lost cause by many, your author included, from Day 1 of its inception.
Finn Balor being pushed big ahead of the pack — likely for Brock Lesnar
Over the course of a mostly nothing episode of Raw, one man came out of it stronger than he has been in some time. It was clear WWE wanted us to pay attention to Finn Balor in particular. The spotlight was definitely on him above everyone else. The show essentially began with a big confrontation among four of the five men in the main event of Extreme Rules, with Balor the odd man out. Balor came out by himself later, though, and just as he was getting into a promo he was interrupted by Paul Heyman.
Can Hideo Itami Still Reach His Potential In NXT After All This Time?
Hideo Itami finally appears to have found his footing in NXT after nearly three years. Not because he was incapable, but due to several injuries which offset his course and brought to a halt his rise through the company. Itami has not fooled himself. He knows his NXT career thus far has not met expectations, including his own. He took to Twitter to voice that thought to the world, adding that now he was finally ready to show everyone who Hideo Itami really is.
The Jinder Mahal saga | Is WWE really going to pull the trigger?
A month has passed since Jinder Mahal abruptly and unexpectedly became the No. 1 contender to the SmackDown WWE Championship. With the big match now only several days away, the question which has become more present with each passing week is whether WWE is really going to go all the way and have Mahal take the title off Randy Orton. While this is a natural question with any championship match, it’s an especially intriguing one in this case.
Evaluating Relationship Between WWE's Main And Secondary Titles
One of the murkier areas of WWE appears to be the inevitable relationship between the main heavyweight titles and the secondary U.S. and Intercontinental titles. The word “inevitable” applies because no matter how much WWE decides to keep them apart or mix them together at a given time, they elicit comparisons and naturally exist in a similar sphere of prestige.
Nakamura-Ziggler Program Ironic If Not Potentially Prophetic
Shinsuke Nakamura’s opening program has been attracting particular attention for obvious reasons. As the hottest new performer in WWE, finally having made his way beyond NXT, old and new fans alike watch with keen interest to see how what essentially is his first impression goes. The choice of opponent, the changed entrance Titantron, the quality of promos, the portrayal of the two men, the potential quality of the match set for Backlash — fans are paying attention to all those things.
Is WWE On To Something With Golden Truth Underdog Story?
It is amazing how well things can work out when you actually put some preparation and effort into them. Sometimes even the most lost cause can be rehabilitated, and the ease with which it occurs can be shocking. Goldust and R-Truth are right there at the bottom of the barrel in WWE today. Not that it is their fault. The two are talented and perfectly capable of showing it off in the few opportunities they are given.
WWE Seemingly Booked Itself Into Corner With Braun Strowman
Braun Strowman is set to be out for an indefinite amount of time due to a necessary elbow surgery, putting his planned title match against Brock Lesnar in July at risk. The sudden news brought about the realization of just how much WWE is depending upon Strowman — a truth which showed itself on Raw. In the aftermath of WrestleMania 33, WWE, whether by carelessness or negligence, has somewhat booked itself into a corner. Of course, nothing is certain as of yet.
Bliss Beating Bayley A Necessity Because Of Unfortunate Circumstances
Sometimes human beings reach a point where the decision that seemingly flies in the face of logic is ultimately — and improbably — the right call. Alexa Bliss became the first woman to have won the SmackDown and now the Raw Women’s Championship. She defeated Bayley at Payback with a squeaky-clean pin in the latter’s hometown of San Jose, Calif. WWE has been criticized for the decision, as well as the follow-up the night after on Raw, where Bliss once again pinned Bayley clean in a tag match.
