Bray Wyatt Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 7 minutes ago, Koko78 said: They have everything scheduled down to the minute, they can figure out how to time matches and interview/promo segments around commercial breaks. I agree that they were getting a bit silly with the 2-out-of-3 falls matches to break things up. I don't disagree that putting it on Maria is a good choice. It gives her character more reasons to be detested (she is a great heel, especially with the emasculation of her husband), and it allows for some creative way to get it off her - without her actually having to take any bumps. The 24/7 championship has been so great as a comedy belt, because McMahon is letting the performers show their creativity. And thats not even discussing the tag match which I thought was great, with the new champs, Brock MDK'ing Seth, or Cedric off the top of the jumbotron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, I'm thrilled that they're going back to actual stables. They just need to move Balor over to the "OC" (I hate that name BTW).

OC is an awful name not sure who signed off on that, and surprised they arent gettin in trouble from that awful TV show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I am a big Ricochet (Prince Puma!) fan so was glad to see him and Andrade get some shine. Some people I know think Sami may be getting a face turn, we will see. As for Maria, I think the idea is brilliant, slows down the constant chaos of what has been the 24/7 belt, and also could allow for some creative ways to take it off her. My guess is Mike will have enough and pin her while she is sleeping or something Maybe she won't lose the belt until she has the baby. While the baby is resting upon her chest as she lies down a ref can come in and count the 1,2,3. And the newborn will be the new 24/7 champ.

They normally would not even take chances with the women and she has been involved every week the past 3 weeks or so. Whether it's physical or not they normally don't take chances with that at all. Like the Miz's wife. I remember when it was announced she was pregs (the 2nd time), she was shown that 1 episode and then none after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be any number of reasons why Maryse disappeared after the announcement. She may not have been under contract (and if she was, she certainly was not full-time like Maria), and the Miz certainly didn't need her to advance his then-storylines. That's not counting that it could have been Maryse's choice not to go on the road while preggo. On top of that, how much extra work was she doing with the Miz & Mrs. filming? It's not like she was a fixture before getting pregnant. It's not exactly much of a risk for Maria to do some backstage segments and berate her husband on a weekly basis at 13 weeks. She's pregnant, not an invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's pregnant, not an invalid. Yea I get it. But her filming that other show is basically them at home etc. Not necessarily on Raw backstage being in "possible" harms way. In any event, if Maria would happen to take a fall while backstage at a Raw or if she happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and got knocked down by another wrestler, then I would suspect WWE would be liable. So I still don't buy that she's really pregnant, if she is, then I'd be surprised. Edited July 30, 2019 by Patrick_Duffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would give credence to HHH still running things. Not terribly likely that Vince is going to try to micromanage 7 hours of programming per week, on top of trying to run XFL. Of course, if the ratings aren't there, all bets are off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
