    Doubt it cause Brock was able to get Paul hey man a contact with wwe again. Just recently from what I heard. I would love for randy to get over but I just don't see it happening. All I'm hoping is that the match is going to be equally fought and not lopsided like it usually is with Brock.

    Orton going over is the better move. Plus he looks better than he has in 3+ years.

    Making Lesnar beatable again is going to help guys like Balor, Owens, Zayn, Cesaro at having a chance at staying at the top.

    Otherwise, Reigns/Rollins/Lesnar will be the WM Main Event 5 yrs strong

    They do legitimately need to make Brock look weaker, and not just to crotch shots. But there's a significant jump in power rankings to whoever beats Lesnar that first time. It's wasted on Orton, he's already a legend. Also I don't think Lesnar is enough of a regular that he can start taking 50/50 booking when he only shows up on ppv's.

    Shame they can't have him giving the rub to "everyman" types like Owens or Zayn.

    Im not sure most WWE fans buy Owens or ZAYn going over on Lesnar yet.

    I think Cesaro or Balor possibly. Orton's a good opponent and the classic matchup SummerSlam needs with so much of the card scattered with new talent trying to get over

    can't believe the secondary market for Takeover, you can get tickets as cheap as $13 before fees, floor going as low as $80, if they hit $60 before Saturday, I'm buying them

    sucks if that arena won't be filled up by the time it airs

    btw, find it hilarious that Eva Marie got suspended also, so much for her match at Summerslam

    Probably good for her to be suspended, she was going to be booed out of the building.

    Also, finally a hot crowd. Finn will get the reaction he deserves.

    Lol, wtf?

    [​IMG]

    What is up with these wellness policy suspensions in the past several months? Are they legit or some of it just a work?

    Some default in the cabin pressure and her t*** exploded during an in direct flight on Delta, who the *** knows? Let me know when WWE goes vivid and does adult entertainment.

    I dont see much reason for a worked drug suspension since that instantly delegitimizes the entire wellness policy which is in place strictly for PR purposes... I'm worried about Paige I would not be surprised if by this time next year she is no longer with the company. She seems to have heat with Vince or someone already and this won't help. Unfortunate cause I really like her :(

    She's a great in ring talent and they can do a ton with her character. Being 23 with I'm sure almost a mil can be problematic

    So do y'all think ADR will just not have his contact renewed in October? It'd open up a slot for a heel on Smackdown, and Somoa Joe is ready.

    It's interesting how both Paige AND ADR both were suspended for the wellness policy. I read somewhere that they're dating.

    Also, what's going to happen to the 6 woman tag match at Summerslam? Who fills Eva's place?

    Nia Jax - obvious choice.

    Dana Brooke - another option because she's banned from the Women's Title match.

    Bayley - why not?:grin: would be kinda funny and awkward if that were to happen.

    It won't be Brie or Nikki Bella because one is still recovering from an injury while the other is sorta nearing retirement.

    Mandy Rose could be another choice because she's from New York but she still needs more work in the ring.

    Both Nia and Dana are on Raw, and the women's tag match seems exclusive to SD. I think Bayley needs to be firmly attached to anything Sasha Banks does, so that she can ride the wave of main event status. Plus, Bayley has nothing to do with anyone on SD, so having her debut on that brand might not be best for business.

    Maybe it'll just be a handicap match.
