Roman was so afraid of Covid and his family that he stayed away from wrestling but he was okay going to the dentist and getting new teeth🤔 Considering one of the dental professions is literally a hygienist... Ok lame joke aside going to the dentist a heck of a lot less risky than wrestling when they weren't testing anybody. Now that they're testing, he's back. Ik I’m jk obv

Book Dominic vs Pat McAfee now. Why? How? Don’t care, just do it. Rookie of the year award tiebreaker match, return of the slammys. It needs to happen. Both exceeded expectations.

It would make little to no sense but i hope Reigns is the leader of retribution, Reigns chasing the heel champ is stale as funk. My fantasy booking, to be sure. Serves multiple purposes. Allows Roman to actually be heel, something many have called for. It gives them an excuse to further explain why he's still wearing his God dang Shield getup. Putting a name like that in the group is the best way to keep Vince's interest and move it toward an actual goal, instead of just being a canvas for his terrible social commentary. Plus, it's a meta-troll that the group doing all this stuff in the name of "change" is led by Da Big Dawg.

I was kinda joking about Bo Dallas being the leader of Retribution. But now that I think about it, that might actually work. It’d explain why they acted nerdy the first few weeks. And it would be a cool way to reintroduce him.

Imagine those first 20 seconds, but without the cuts and zooms.
Cool to see Reigns back. This product has missed him dearly. It’s a bummer there are no real fans there. This would have been the biggest pop of Reigns’ singles career.

Yay. Roman is back. I can barely contain myself.
I think I farted in celebration.
Apparently everyone else on SmackDown just became irrelevant as the WWE will go back to pushing Roman to the moon.

all in all that was a fantastic show. honestly no [bi]real[/i] complaints. the finishes to the title matches were kinda lame but thats nitpicky.
nice to see Roman back actually, i wonder where they are going with this though since he basically beat up both guys.

That show almost out me to sleep. The women's matches were solid, but everything else subpar or worse.
This company has enough top shelf workers that they could be a MOTY factory, and we get shows like this. Bray Wyatt is a fantastic character, but he's one of the worst wrestlers that's I've ever seen in a top spot like this. He's so unathletic it hurts.
The backslide finish was so lame. I do not want to see anymore series of rematches in such close succession. AEW is so much better in that way, we almost never get rematches at all. At least spread them far apart.
Roman looked great and I was happy to see him, hope they don't turn him back into a company shill. He's just such a natural badass.
Not a bad show by any stretch, but I was looking for some banger matches that never came. It's 2020 and Impact Wrestling is more watchable than WWE. Crazy.

Nice seeing Roman back gonna be fun to see where they go with the whole title picture. Glad to see The Fiend champ again.
Bayley,Sasha and Asuka delivered again but what's new about that
Dom did great,Seth's attire was awesome and the match was good too
Drew and Randy wasn't bad since we know we gonna see it again I don't really know how they could've did much different
Hate to see Sonya go when she's been so good since the split,hope she gets all the time she needs and comes back ready to be champion when she's ready
Good show

Roman turning heel & leading Retribution would be cool, his shirt seems like a fit for what they do. That could be something to start him off & give the group some legitimacy.
Imagine Roman working a heel, and setting up a match with The Rock at WrestleMania 37...
Rock: Roman... Big Dog, What happened to you man? You were a Hero to these people, the kids loved you and You turned your back on them, you turned your back on the millions.
Roman: Naw man, i didn't turn my back on these people, they turned their backs on me. I fought for them, i did everything for them, i fought for their approval and they rejected me... It's like looking in the mirror isn't it Dwayne. You're looking at yourself, the only difference being i'm not gonna end up pandering to these people with corny catchphrases & stupid looking elbow drops Naw... I'm gonna take over this company MY WAY, nothing's holding me back now. You can forget all of these people, because this is MY YARD, and i'm gonna show them why... Whether they like it or not.
Now i'm in fantasy booking mode... Did i just cut a better Roman promo than Roman's cut since he debuted?

Did i just cut a better Roman promo than Roman's cut since he debuted? Yes. Except it teeters too much toward Seth's "these people turned on me" turn before the messiah gimmick fully kicked in.

Seeing all the posts about Otis possibly cashing in after the Reigns beat down.... not once did the thought of Otis cross my mind during the end of the show. Goes to show how much they seem to care about Otis having MITB. There’s no chance he successfully cashes that in, if he even does at all. I’m waiting for someone to challenge him to putting it on the line and take it.
