Typhoon my boy!

[LaLaLand]

Absolutely massive roster. 30 women!!! I remember the days we'd get like 3/4 women in a game, mad.

More to come via DLC, they said the roster would be between 180-200 and it's currently 165.

I'd expect something along the lines of:

1. HOF pack:
- The Rock n Roll Express
- Beth Phoenix
- Teddy Long as a manager?

2. UK pack:
- Tyler Bate
- Pete Dunne
- Trent Seven

3. NXT pack:

- Andrade Cien Almas
- Drew McIntyre
- Kassius Ohno
- Aleister Black
- Ruby Riot

4. 205 pack:
- Ariya Daivari
- Drew Gulak
- Lince Dorado
- Mustafa Ali
- Tony Nese

5. Main Roster additions:
- The Hardy Boyz
- Lana
- Elias Samson
- James Ellsworth.

[Jordan.]

Shock at them leaving the Hardy's out. No doubt DLC because they know people will pay extra for them.

[BBfanUSA]

This is partially coincidence but NXT is doing a house show by me on Oct 26th, and two local indy promotions with generally local talent are all going to be running shows at the same times by each other blocks apart.

And then the night after in a suburb nearby, is an all star promotion that booked Cobb vs Riddle, WCTT, Ricochet, and more.

I am planning to hopefully go to one of the indy shows that weekend. What a doozy.

[michael21]

I have a question

Spoiler:

Who wants to walk with Elias

[Denver]

Christy Hemme is pregnant with Quadruplets

[LaLaLand]

Just aired on RAW, she's coming!!!

Spoiler:

Youtube video

[Denver]

She not expected till like mid October

[Brother Leon]

Meh. I'm not here for her and her Streak.

[LaLaLand]

Here 4 Emma to get the shock win at No Mercy, have a short reign and then feud with Asuka on her arrival. Their NXT matches were awesome especially the one in London.

[Calderyon]

http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/...in-india-this/

Considering this is the main reason he is the champion right now, it would be a small or medium disaster, if he doesn´t show up.

I think they´ll make him do a promo or something at least.

Miz and Maryse are expecting the Goatiest of GOATs

[LaLaLand]

^ So pleased for them!

The MYC final is on after SD! live from Vegas.

Kairi Sane vs. Shayna Baszler... Who's winning?

Kairi is signed whilst Shayna isn't, so she'd be the obvious winner if they're gonna slap the NXT title on her...

However, they're pushing this 4 Horse Women vs 4 Horse Women match, which could see Shayna winning to forward the feud...

[LaLaLand]

The winner of the MYC is

Spoiler:

Kairi Sane

and she will be challenging for the vacant NXT Women's Championship at TakeOver: Houston against a yet to be announced opponent.

[LaLaLand]

- Plans for Asuka on Raw are for her first feud to be against Emma as they had great chemistry down in NXT.

- Rumours that a multi-woman match will take place at the next TakeOver to crown the new NXT Women's Champion. So far only Kairi has been announced.

[LaLaLand]

NXT had a taping last night for the rest of September and into October...

Cole, Fish and O'Reilly aka "The Undisputed Era" seem to have a new female member...

Spoiler:

Taynara Conti

"The Undisputed Era come out with Taynara Conti and Cole sends her to the ring. Nikki has Liv pinned, when Conti pulls her from the ring. Nikki chases her around the ring, but when Nikki gets back in, Peyton hits her spin kick for the win."

Also regarding the NXT Women's Title... There have been qualifying matches to determine Kairi's THREE opponents at Houston in a Fatal 4 Way.

Spoiler:

NXT Women's Title Qualifier: Peyton Royce (w/Billie Kay) defeated Nikki Cross and Liv Morgan to advance to "Takeover: Houston" in the Fatal 4 Way with Kairi Sane.

NXT Women's Title Qualifier: Ember Moon defeated Ruby Riot & Sonya Deville to advance to "Takeover: Houston" in the Fatal 4 Way with Kairi Sane and Peyton Royce.

The 4th and final participant will be decided at the next tapings just before TakeOver: Houston.

Also, Emma's debuted an altered theme to the last one she's had on RAW on the Australian tour, featuring her "IT'S ALL ABOUT ME" quote. I'm liking it.

So, Princesa Sugehit lost her mask to face/technico rival Zeuxis at CMLL's 85th Anniversary show tonight. Wrestled a whopping 21 years with it. Full traditional spanish name is Ernesta Sugehit Salazar Martinez (they take their maternal parent's last name)

This is what she looks like, not too bad for 37. (Trying to find out if WWE signed her for any reason. It's also not uncommon for promotions to dole out some cash to both participants in a Lucha de apuetas match to put their hair or mask on the line and even more to unmask. Given Sugehit's tenure, I suspect she was paid a good amount or just wanted to give up her mask since her career is winding down. )

Also, Corey Graves' little brother, Sam Adonis wrestled on the card as well. He's a pro-Trump heel.

There's actually been a decent amount of American wrestlers using the fact that they're American for heel heat. Including Eddie Guerrero despite being of Mexican descent

Bobby Heenan has sadly died
