Should be a solid show
A show baby
Predictions?
Amazing KO promo.
A paint by numbers promo we’ve heard from Mahal.
A new challenger for Naomi
Fashion Files
And a welcoming to the penitentiary where it ain’t paranoia it’s the U….SOS
Rematch set for Battleground between AJ and KO but with a stipulation possibly an open challenge and Alpha revealed to be the ones to trash the fashion police office
I wrote weeks ago I hoped it was alpha. My goodness it needs to be alpha. I hope you are right about it being alpha.
They need something do and some direction after their lackluster title run
I wish they would trade Anderson/Gallows for American Alpha. Each would do SO MUCH BETTER on the other show.
Just imagine Alpha with Angle or vs broken Hardyz and Anderson/Gallows with Styles or vs any tag team on SD
American Alpha v Cesaro and Sheamus is everything great about wrestling.
So true forgot about that they would read the house down
Ladies and gentlemen boys and girls children of all ages. Iwnerd is proud to bring to you it’s amazing always entertaining most fun you’ll have on a Tuesday SMACK…DOWN….LIVE…CHHHAAAAAT!
Glad to be here
Hopefully we have a good turnout.
I bet we will
Let’s Go!
Here we go
Loving this opening
Good opener
AJ kicks us off
AJ kicks us off
So… Dixie Carter was on wwe tv. AJ Styles is the us champ and Samoa Joe was in the universal title match. IS this late 2000s tna?
Is AJ missing his name plate?
Hey hey hey! AJ’s Champion and Life is excellent! What’s up y’all?
Howdy
Good stuff
Return of the US open challenge!
Called it
Open challenges.. YES!
Who will answer the challenge first??
How did I know? Just how?
Please God let this happen
NO WAY
Cena vs Styles!
Rematch from the rumble
I love Styles reaction like … Oh…you again
For real. It was like “Didn’t I beat you already, bro?”
THEY have such a good chemistry. Reminds me of Punk/Cena where each brought out the best and wanted to prove as much.
Yup!
Seriously? Right now?!
Why not it’s an open challenge
I’m working! I can’t watch it!
Sucks
I just got back from seeing Spider-Man Homecoming and now it’s SD time good day good day
Great movie and howdy glad you could make it
amazing movie and I even had to catch up on that Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor first presser cause you know how much I love Conor so I’ve been busy the last 30 minutes or so
This isn’t actually happening right?
awwwwww what a tease
WHY KO WHY
In my best tony schivanoe voice… Kevin Owens you can go to hell.
Kevin Owens is SLIMMING UP!
Oh Kevin! You so salty!
Owens like damn I walked right into that.
I choked when he called KO Michelin Man.
tag team match coming lol
Tag match just set for our main event tonight Cena/Styles vs Rusev/KO
Looks like we gonna get a tag team match playa
Holla holla
Nakamura and Corbin tonight? Has to be a non finish right?
It has to so they can set up for Battleground
alright Tye getting a big singles match I like it
WWE found Tye
I was wondering what was going on with him….
No direction after his mini feud with Aiden
He faded off. Which is unlike SD creative.
True glad the A show found something for him
Whoa. Fighting words… #TeamRaw lol
#TeamBlue
The split brands has worked for both shows and both are fantastic right now imo
YOU’RE TEAM RAW TOO?! YESSSSSSS
WWWYKI
He’s Team Blue
Love the Battleground theme this year
I can’t wait to write about Dillinger-Mahal. Dillinger getting time this week against the champ. Gable last few weeks. SDL getting this right weekly
Is the Open Challenge happening or not?
Nope thanks to KO and Rusev
Oh good, then I won’t have missed it. I loved the Open Challenges until it turned into Cena ranting for 20 mins and the same people kept showing up.
tag team main event
Holla holla holla
Jinder finally has merch now but does wear/promote it at all
Anyone else notice the lady booing Mahal wearing a new day unicorn horn and a randy Orton shirt. Not sure why it stood out but it did.
Lol
Yes. I saw her. I especially saw the unicorn horn.
Is it just me or does Dillinger look lost surprised and confused during his entrance?
????????????????????????????????????????
YOOOOOOOOOOOO
Howdy
how are you?
Good and happy now that WWE found Tye
dark matches became his thing lol. You see his tweets to Miz earlier?
No but heard about them
What’s up
how’ it going?
Enjoying being trolled by SDL thus far
haha typical SD Live
I know the powers at be is from Canada do you guys get the split screen?
We don’t lol how is it
It’s nice. Having some knowledge in advertising I would expect more if this in the next 5 years
lovely
Tye had no chance
Nope lol
Just glad he got TV time
You don’t like me for how I look. You don’t like me for how I talk, I am the modern day maharaja
It’s become the same promo every week
Paint by numbers. I’m willing to give him a chance let’s just add some depth to his character. I forgot to add in the population of India above.
Is it not gonna be hard for fans in attendance to see the Punjabi Prison match?
I would think so.
That stinks
Much like the HIAC or chamber. You going?
nah. Looking at the structure makes it seem like it would be hard for fans to see what is going on in the ring
I THINK they put cameras in the cage so fans can see.
These wwe2k18 promos have been making me want a Rollins v Angle match lol
Yeah they have done a great job
Still a massive pop… years later… new day is fantastic
Anyone think Battleground has a chance to compete with GBOF?
We all know The Usos won that rap battle
Keep it PG… ?
They killed it haha
Oh for sure.
JaFaican lol
That was a cool move lol
It was.
Xavier……won. Xavier won a match guys.
Anyone else surprised we are getting Nakamura and Corbin tonight?
Yup I am
It won’t go long I don’t think
THE QUEEN
No women’s title match at Battleground
Carmella vs Naomi maybe
She has the contract
Why at Summerslam so it looks like Naomi has the night off for Battleground
Big match. Naomi might still have a match at Battleground though.
Against who?
Whoever isn’t in the fatal five way.
#JusticeforEllsworth
#KeepHimLockedUp
No he was wrongfully suspend
Calling my shot here…. Carmella cashes in at summer slam with help from Ellsworth
I don’t question creative or backstage stuff often. But man they whiffed on moving Alexa and Charlotte
Alexa’s doing okay, I think they’re making Charlotte earn her spot on SmackDown.
Good
Alexa has regressed and Charlotte has gotten lost in the smackdown shuffle. Each were cornerstones much like Styles and Reigns. Should have swapped Banks and Becky.
Don’t get me wrong Alexa is still doing well however her ascension has slowed
That’s good. They don’t want people getting tired of her and she makes the faces look great.
I’ll say this her and Banks has me pumped for their feud. I think it could have been better on SDL where Alexa was established as the alpha and Banks chasing her.
Bliss/Banks can work on either show because they seem to have legit heat with each other. Making Bliss a cowardly mean girl works for her.
You’re not wrong.
I think Alexa’s done pretty well for herself, crap segment and one stupid match aside. She gets legit heel heat, which is great and makes the babyfaces look good. Charlotte’s biggest problem is her success on RAW makes people hostile to her being champ on SD.
I would have loved to see that
I HATE THIS ENTRANCE!
I LOVE THIS ENTRANCE
You don’t get a headache every time it comes on. I didn’t realize he had a match and got hit with it.
Lol and no
*Rubs temples* That’s not fun.
I have two buddies who are 25+ year fans of wrestling and neither understand the love for Nakamura. The dude screams star to me.
Right
SOme guys jump off the screen when they walk through the curtain. Lesner Owens Reigns Nakamura all do
Add Charlotte to that list
So does Roode
I’m not quite there. Roode has a great entrance and is presented well however he himself doesn’t give me the feels
Looks like we are still gonna get the match at Battleground instead of tonight
UGH NATTIE LOSE THE CAT EARS
I honestly think she believes it looks cute when it really looks creepy.
I loved her new character change when she became heel and wanted to look like a dominatrix until she took that and added crazy cat lady twist and messed it all up
Loved Kurt’s WWE 24 last night
Gonna watch it after SDL heard it was amazing
WWE has done an excellent job with the WWE 24 series
They do a lot of good video content
Crazy thing every documentary they do is absolutely fantastic. Every video package they do is incredible. Ask them to make a movie….. ….. …..
LOL! I’m hoping this new one with Seth Rollins and Wesley Snipes is gonna be good
I’ll save you the time and burst your bubble now…it won’t be
🙁
Marine 3-4-5 were AWESOME! ?
hahaha so I’ve heard
Your gonna enjoy it
I have enjoyed every one so far. Angle is such a good interview too I’ve listened to most of his podcasts. Great story
It was great
Have yet to watch a 205Live. Am I missing anything?
no
I think myself and the powers at be should go head to head in predictions with the loser having to watch all the 205lives and do a write up LOL
It has been a let down rather watch the CWC tournament instead but we did get a few gems
This is not one of my favorite costumes for Charlotte. I’m sorry.
That green is not in her color wheel.
At all. She looks like a sick peacock.
Yeah. If she wants to look like a peacock, she should have more blue and use the green as trim.
Showing off or dressing nicely with the intent to impress and gain the attention –Peacocking
Primary color of a peacock is blue and the green is around the eyes on his feathers. Charlotte got the colors reversed.
I’ll admit this I’m not well versed in peacock so I believe you 100% ?
They added them in her graphic now great ???
I’ll never forget being at mania and Charlottes music hit and the three rows in front and behind me all standing up to watch her enter.
How would you bring Tamnia’s career from the dead?
I don’t know. Her mic skills are so glaringly bad that it would be hard to do anything other than an enforcer role.
“Shut up before I make you look like Ellsworth”
Have her manage Lana
Book her like a female Roman Reigns: badass that doesn’t need to do a lot of talking to get the point across.
put her back with The Usos I guess
I can’t wait for the inevitable Becky v Charlotte feud
we saw it last year tho
MARIA
SAMI WOW WOW LOL
lol i’m dying
Sami is me, rn.
I know right? What is their purpose?
Thank you they saved it for Battleground
FASHION FILES
HAHAHAHAHAHA
No. No no no no. Hahahahahahahaha. Where did they get the horses?
WTF is this? What’re they smoking in that locker room?
Nah Mojo you did broski dirty
the point is to eliminate everyone else first and then it’s every man for himself. He broke the Tag Tam Rule #5
Fact. Tag team rule #5 clearly states. You wait till your the final 2 bros in the ring before attempting elimination on your bro
Exactly! Everybody knows that!
I guess not Mojo
oh he knew alright
Heel Mojo coming soon?
The truth is not H. My god I can’t breathe
The truth is not h????
Kevin Owens has to have lost at least 30lbs
Rusev with the red white and blue tights
I find it ironic he and KO wearing RED WHITE AND BLUE and Cena and Styles aren’t
lol that is kinda weird
Who do y’all think Kurt was talking to when RAW went off the air last night
It’s tough which is good for WWE. Stephanie is the obvious answer. Dixie is the low key upcoming popular answer.
I was totally thinking Stephanie. Nothing major though. RAW is just being over dramatic.
A disgrace an and embarrassment to WWE.
If it’s true it could ruin me.
This could tear my family apart.
We will tell the world together don’t worry I love you
Pele kick to an AA! Nice!
Had fun tonight guys. Goodnight
Still mad they did that match on a house show.
