Yeah Owens will remain the heel especially with Jericho's face pops and how over his list is. They're actually selling the list of Jericho in the WWE shop lol

Sad to see them break up as they were very entertaining together. You could tell he was speaking from the heart when he was telling him how much fun he's had in the last year.

Wonder if they'll turn AJ at some point. Would've been great to have Joe on SD attack AJ and have them feud. Crazy to think the 2 top tna guys from 8 years ago are now big players in WWE. Not to mention another is the nxt champ

All good things must come to an end, I suppose. Jericho is leaving for a while after Wrestlemania, so it makes sense to pull the trigger on the split now.

Reigns manhandled The Club for two weeks straight now. Way to book your Tag Champs.

Meanwhile, The Rock came out to the ring when Raw went off the air and left a voicemail to CM Punk:

...to which Punk tweeted:

I think it was a great gesture from The Rock.

EDIT: It could be because of the movie about Paige that The Rock and WWE is producing.

I'll watch Smackdown's replay tonight, people say it's a great show again this week.

Last October, I ordered a custom nameplate and a wall mount for my Big Gold Belt World Heavyweight Championship from Wrestling SuperStore. The store doesn't ship here in the Philippines, however. So I had my friend who's in New York buy the items for me. And at last the nameplate's here, and now the title looks complete.

Image

Part of me regret not having my WWE 2K16 character's name on the plate, but there it is. I might re-paint the engraving with black enamel paint to make the letters pop more.

I was hesitant to remove the default nameplate, as I don't see any mentions online about the nameplates on commemorative belts being removable. I forced the screws at the back side of the belt, and the default nameplate went off.

I'll work on the mount on this weekend.

WWE Fastlane sucked. There goes Owens' reign. You work house shows several days a week as champion? Well let's just give this to another part-timer.

This only means that Orton/Styles vs Wyatt won't be the main event.

I regret watching this PPV.

That's not all. It means the title is going to remain on a part-timer through Wrestlemania, since it's Goldberg/Lesnar at said event.

I'm okay with Owens losing the title so long as it wasn't a squash like this one. "New Era" my ass.

There are rumors that Foley would be replaced by Kurt Angle as Raw's GM after Wrestlemania.

He needs to take some time off for surgery, so it makes sense.

I didn't watch Fastlane, but from what I understand it was basically a mediocre episode of RAW, and that was before they put the title on Goldberg. I couldn't be less enthused about Goldberg v. Lesnar at Wrestlemania. So underwhelming. Two guys with supremely limited movesets, who produce nothing but boring matches. Unfathomable that the powers that be think that this is something that people want to see. The projected matches we listed after Survivor Series would've been tremendously more highly anticipated. Shame.

Imagine the disappointment for me, someone actually going to wrestle mania. I am looking forward to Owens/Jericho match. Whoever they stick with aj should be a good match too. Hopefully Becky wins her belt back

Actually, you've got to give them credit for not playing hot potato with the Women's belt again, and having Charlotte's winning streak on PPV broken. Damage has already been done, but at least they didn't do it again.

Now watch as she wins the belt on RAW, probably.

I think that Women's title match yesterday should have ended in a DQ when Sasha ran in and attacked Charlotte.

Smackdown is fucking good. That talking smack though.

I definitely hate that AJ-Shane would be the match at Mania for Styles. I hope they swerve and have Daniel Bryan (clear him for one match!) go up against AJ instead.

Also, Talking Smack is one of the thing things that Smackdown has over Raw. It gives personality to their roster. And Miz is always brilliant on Talking Smack.

AJ-Shane would definitely be a waste. I assume AJ would get the win at least, but he deserves better.

The whole skit was funny. My favorite was the one where Ric Flair says "Seriously, this is not Ric Flair." :lol:

In other news, Paige was part of another wave of "The Fappening", with her sex videos and nude photos leaked publicly.

I think WWE should change the design of the NXT Women's Championship now that it's associated with Paige's leaked tapes.

Definitely some good skits with the Southpaw Regional Wrestling stuff. "Sports entertainment" gets a bad rap from old school purists, but if you go back and look up some footage of those old "wrasslin'" territories, the parodies aren't that inaccurate. Exaggerated for comic effect, sure, but still on target.

I'm guessing WWE is going to stand by Paige, though she's certainly been on the outs with them in recent months, so you never know. It'd be a tad hypocritical though, given what happened with Seth Rollins some time back.

I love how Rusev kept himself from laughing during his skit as Big Bartholomew. And the Sea Creature is a total win! :lol:

I won't be surprised if Paige is released since she already had two strikes of wellness violations. I'm wondering how the crowd will respond tomorrow on Raw.

True, though they might also delay doing that just to spite her. They've already refused to let her out of her contract once before, and while this is obviously a scandal they don't want, she's also a victim here.

As expected, Raw is basically holding pattern until WM with nothing really going on. Meanwhile, Smackdown crowned a new champion and are in the midst of a great last-second buildup of the AJ/Shane match
