Also, if they wanted to give the title to Naomi because she's from Orlando, wouldn't it mean more to win the title in Orlando, instead of (possibly) losing it there?

I'm not really a Wyatt fan but I'll be annoyed if they're giving him the title just to lose another high profile WM match.

I don't know what it was supposed to be, I just guessed flour. Would make more sense for it to be coke if Maryse was holding it.

OK, that wasn't catering. Makes more sense now. That was the makeup area and that's powder that's spilled on Maryse.

I would say no if it is going to be a 3 or 4 way match at WM. It's a lot easier to focus on the champ in that build instead of her being just one of three challengers.

Are there any other feuds that started by someone spilling something on someone? Didn't Jericho feud with Kane after he spilled coffee on him once?

I'm really excited about the possibilities of Bray as champion. I hope they do an angle where the Wyatt Family "takes over" the WWE. You could have HHH try to stop them to save the company, and when that doesn't work, eventually the Shield reunites to take them out.

What Wyatt Family? Harper's gone afaik. Randy's challenging Bray. Bray even ignored Orton last night to celebrate. The Family is done. Bray is a cult leader of himself now.

They could always put it back together, or add new people. Bray's character needs a faction.

Wyatt family is played out. It's been like 4 years now. If they're going to get me on board with his character then it needs some sort of change.

Savio > Crush

(If I'm remembering right and Crush led that DOA group.)

I will continue to be the loudest Bray apologist on here, and argue that he is not bad, but rather his booking is. Lately his booking has been pretty solid, and now that he has the belt hopefully it'll continue moving in the right direction.

Bray is a better talent than darO's other primary heat target (Balor), but that rarely translates to Bray actually entertaining me. He can be carried to a good match, and can perform pretty well with good story material, but he never singlehandedly elevates any material he's given.

ill give Wyatt this, he was actually interesting these last 2 months when him and Orton got out of their do the same thing over and over cycle. A main reason I'm so adamantly against this booking turn is it takes 2 guys who were doing good, interesting work for the first time in ages will likely return to their normal abysmal selves.

Good luck ever getting me to say something that nice about Balor tho.

Wasn't disappointed

The Jackyl wasn't even the worst leader of that particular group.

Reddit is much more positive about this PPV when 2p2 is. Probably because they are much higher on Bray than most of us are.
