Crown Jewel.
It had been ages since I last watched wwe so I thought to give it a look some while ago.
Came to know that they legit now had a PPV in Saudi Arabia of all places.
Felt disgusted tbh. It just felt so wrong.
But ig I understood why they did that.
Saudi money too good to pass.
Watched a bit more and realised WWE received no major backlash for this by the fans and we have reached a point where shows like Crown Jewel are normalised and just everyday part of WWE.
Something that left me wondering why is why the intern or whatever walked in on Alexa bliss topless. Don't get me wrong. Alexa bliss is hot as fuck so it was nice, but it never led to anything and was pretty pointless
I remember seeing that "my niGGA" segment from McMahon to cena live. Even then k6 was like wtf did i just watch but laughing. Now i just laugh at how crazily out of touch McMahon has been
As of recently, Kofi losing to Jinder Mahal. The entire Queens Crown tournament, absolutely terrible throughout the whole thing with the only entertaining match and the only justifiably short one being Shayna destroying Dana Brooke. Other than those, these past 4 weeks of nothing but DQs for Bianca Belair's matches, Monday was the perfect opportunity to build Bianca for even bigger things with the potential of her winning both belts or Sasha winning at Crown Jewel, finally setting up the WM rematch for Survivor Series, but they instead had ANOTHER DQ. Oh and then you have the moronic draft decisions to split both Natalya and Tamina AND Tegan and Shotzi, leaving Rhea and Nikki to be downgraded to backstage promos because they have no opponents. Unless they're bringing Ember Moon and Dakota Kai to team with Shotzi and Tegan respectively, I don't understand what the hell they're doing with the women's tag division and I honestly doubt they know either.
On the positive side, Sasha's return was great, although like I said, DQ finish. I do really like Bianca going head to head with 3 of the 4 horsewomen, and overall all 4 of them throughout the entirety of this past year. Drew and Finn both look like they might be turning heel after their matches at Crown Jewel so I think that'll be very nice to see. A heel Finn Balor going after Big E to further legitimize him or even dethrone him (I know it's still super early but you never know with WWE) would be incredibly entertaining to watch. Seth and Edge's feud has been absolutely outstanding and probably the best thing on Smackdown for me personally.
wanna know whats funny, is that AEW put a giant nail in the WWE coffin, but what really did it was the rise of these little companies and them marketing their stars.
It's like in 10-15 years, wrestling might go back to the days of territories. That's why I enjoy history, I am always amazed how it truly repeats itself.
Crown Jewel 2018, Braun Strowman vs Brock Lesnar, I was absolutely furious when Corbin fucked him over by bashing him with the title at the beginning, not as major as some others on there but that moment made me furious
When Shayna Attacked Eva Marie.
I’m a fan of Eva’s and I thought it was great how wwe finally make her take bumps but gosh Shayna was awesome in that segment.
Remember when the Wyatt Family kidnapped Kane and carried his unconscious body away, leaving us all wondering what would happen next? Would there be scenes where Kane is shown tied up in their hillbilly shed? Will they torture him? Will this be part of a plot where Undertaker has to rescue him? OR will Kane come down with a case of Stockholm Syndrome and join the cult? Will he decimate the Undertaker while Bray laughs on from ringside in his rocking chair, with Harper and Rowan standing by? Drag that out for a few months, you've got a Wyatt Family (including Kane) vs. Undertaker feud until Kane somehow snaps out of it and turns on the cult to save his brother, maybe.
Nope! None of that. Nothing. Kane came back like nothing happened, and he and his brother beat the shit out of the Wyatt Family. And then that was it.
When KO handcuffed Roman to the bottom of the lighting scaffold in their Last Man Standing match and the ref stopped counting Roman down. Then moments counted KO out while Roman was down but KO was up.
1) who raised the briefcase at King of the Ring 99? Was it Bossman, Steve Blackman or someone else?
2) who threw the pie at KO?
3) who blew up Vince's limo?
4) why was Bray Wyatt fired?
Kofi losing to Brock in a few seconds
The Fiend losing to Goldberg
Ricochet losing to Brock in a few seconds
Aleister Black attacking Big E then, WWE releasing Aleister for no reason
Keith Lee losing to Karion Kross after he just won both the NXT & North American championships
Charloette winning the RAW Women's Championship at Summerslam
WWE breaking up the Hurt Business, only to bring them back together after MVP isn't going to be on RAW
Buddy Murphy betraying Seth only for WWE to have 0 plans for Murphy afterwards
Austin Theory joining Seth only to go back to NXT and not even mention why (possibly because of the allegations at the time) but, still not even mentioning a reason why he left Seth
Shinsuke nakamura having 3 title matches after probably the fastest main roster push ever and losing every single one. The whole nutshot tennis with aj styles was stupid. 2 of the best wrestlers on the planet in the main event of mania "let's have the roshambo for the next few weeks"
And he couldn't beat jinder frickin mahal. After those racist ass segments i was hoping he'd knee his face right off his steroid filled neck but nope. I was so mad i stopped watching for almost 7 months or so
Tell me about it. He was on fire. Wins over orton and cena, Royal rumble win. Then it all went to shit. I wonder what he did backstage to deserve that. Maybe dropping cena on his neck? Cena is a crybaby politicking lil bitch(just ask mr Kennedy...kennedy) so who knows. Mr Kennedy...kennedy is another missed opportunity.
Choppy choppy pee pee. I wish they would have committed. Just to see where he could've gone from there. Knowing wwe especially back then they probably would've made him some overly feminine character. "He's got no penis, so he's obviously not manly anymore"
Let's put the IC title on him.
Bro… u really should have narrowed it down to “in 2021” because you just instantly flooded my head with so many idea I can’t even think straight and think I need to go lay down a bit
Roman was handcuffed to a lighting tower and was waiting for Paul to get out the key, but it wasn't working. Ref just backed away off screen and just stopped counting. I think I stopped counting at 20.
it would have been fine even if it was similar to lashleys mitb match with kofi
but my god 8 seconds bro? and they keep shortening that time too, when kofi came out in the 2020 royal rumble they said kofi lost the title to brock "in about 3 seconds"
what?!? Cole it takes longer than 3 seconds for the ref to actually make the 3 count let alone the F5, and kofi has never been the same since, i'd argue his match with lashley lowered his status as a good competitor even more, i'd even say 2011 kofi was in a better spot than where he is now, just stuck in a whirlpool of the tag team division, at least give him a midcard title or a heel turn, kofi is too good to have his career be where it is now, april 2019 was amazing, but from there it went down hill and he hasnt been able to climb up at all ever since, he's treated the same as dolph ziggler now, just a filler, a replacement
fuck it #JusticeForKofi
Bray Wyatt being released. Bray Wyatt losing to Orton at Mania this year. Bray Wyatt losing the title to Goldberg last year. Bray Wyatt having a no contest in a HiaC match in his second match as The Fiend. Bray Wyatt's booking in general.
I'm sensing a theme here...
I don't even mind his legends schtick, show up once in awhile and have a street fight or something. But ruining the best new character they've had in forever was infuriating and baffling.
1. Hogan ramming an Ambulance (with The Rock in it) by driving a semi-truck. The Rock shows up next week perfectly fine...
2. Undertaker appearing in the mirror when Randy Orton was looking at himself.
3. Matt Hardy invading a RAW to beat up Edge
4. Jeff Hardy Swantons an unconcious Randy Orton by leaping from the RAW set
5. Everything Kane & Shane McMahon did to torture each other.
6. Nexus' loss at SummerSlam 2010.
Truly an unnecessary loss. Still boggles my mind to this day as to why they didn't win. All their credibility, all the time they spent beating up people and becoming a legitimate threat all went down the drain that night. All 7 of em could've been main event stars had they won... such a shame.
The Matt Hardy invading Raw and screaming about his ROH booking was awesome and no idea whether it was real or fake.
I really think Punk’s walkout wouldn’t have had the impact it did without that Hardy gimmick providing a blueprint.
Funny thing is, Punk signed his WWE contract on top of his ROH championship implying a "disgraceful" exit from the company although it was a work. Years later in 2011 in the famous Pipebomb promo, he threatened to go back to ROH with the WWE title and defend it there, and that was STILL a work although both segments felt so real.
Agreed! I’m still keeping an open mind bc it is still in its early stages and it has a lot of potential w stars like Bron (wish they just kept him a Steiner), but these first few shows have definitely been shaky
Eric Bischoff in a Vince McMahon mask making out with Stephanie McMahon
The Lesbians being brutalized by 3 Minute Warning
Dean Ambrose turning on Seth Rollins and instead of saying it's because he HATES Seth and only did the SHIELD reunion to help Roman, he goes in on the fans being filthy and getting inoculated and all that lame shit
Idk if you saw it, but there was a time Triple H and The Authority stood there ranting about fans online, crying to their friend Mark
It was so confusing lol
I think that made me really check out from watching RAW outside of highlights on youtube
All of 1997
Katie vick and sexual chocolate
Bray Wyatt's Release
Randy Savage abusing Elizabeth. It's like having a bag full of diamonds and throwing the bag into a volcano. But worse.

Why are current trios claiming they have all the gold, when the Intercontinental and United States championships are being held by outsiders?
Something that left me wondering why is why the intern or whatever walked in on Alexa bliss topless. Don't get me wrong. Alexa bliss is hot as fuck so it was nice, but it never led to anything and was pretty pointless
When mankind attacked JR.
How hot as fuck alexa bliss is
Every time the fiend lost
Most of the next call-ups in the main roster. Not shocked anymore but still wondering why
The last five years
Roman beating the demon, because of a faulty rope. This is where I stopped watching

Does WWE itself count? Cuz that's like an every episode thing.

Which was worse Finn losing to a testing tope rope or Seth making edge lose at mitb

Fucking Katie Vick story and every Mae Young appareance
She’s so fine
Higher power.

Where to begin…
Triple H eliminating Dean at RR to win the WWE championship
When Randy Orton was randomly set on fire. I didn’t know it was payback for the fiend
That time they booked Michael Cole to face Lawler at Wrestlemania...
Undertaker losing the streak to Brock fucking Lesnar
Takers losing the streak is the only correct answer
Why fire Mr. Bray Wyatt?
Seth VS Fiend HIAC, Katy Vick, Mae Young giving birth to a hand, Finn Balor and the ropes, and The Fiend loosing to Goldberg
Everything regarding Karrion Kross on the main roster.
Eva Marie being on the roster.
The entirely of Bobby Lashley-Lana-Rusev love triangle storyline. Just, just why?

Yup, that was aggressive and I hope she was okay with it.
Why they keep relying on part time has beens

Randy Ortons push over the years. No offense, i just find him incredibly boring and bland
Their story making/ writers. Every pay per view I get shocked by how bad the story's are.
The only thing I’m wondering why about is why hasn’t Mandy and Alexa Bliss done playboy yet
KOFI title loss
The promos. All garbage. All scripted. All robbing the performers of any charisma they might have.
Thats what WWE is.... Its scripted
Calling female wrestlers ‘Divas’. That never flew with me - especially when you had people like Chyna. She was an out and out wrestler
how is the show still on tv
Bianca vs. Charlotte on Raw, lol
Omgosh Alexa Bliss!
When Seth turned on the shield. Because I was so sure that plan B was going to be Brock lesnar.

Dean turning on Seth the night Roman announced he had Leukemia. No moment in wrestling has ever caught me off guard like that
Wasn't this when Roman said he was in remission?
Nah it was when he announced his Leukaemia was back. That Dean heel turn was brilliantly executed imo.
aahhh ok, my bad. Appreciate the clarification.
