Any word if drew injured his knee in his match with Jimmy?
He seemed to be holding his knee after coming off the ropes, I saw him talking to Jimmy whilst on the mat, then all of a sudden Jimmy went for a splash, missed and Drew hit the Claymore. Seemed liked it was a call mid match.
So, if he were to turn up on NXT (due to the partnership) would he come out as Elias? If he came out as Elija then Kevin Owen’s needs to come out after and do the whole “you’re Elias” and now mention is he from triplets.
Could that have been a work? Genuine question. WWE like surprise returns at the rumble and having everyone think Bliss had not come to an agreement made the return even more of a surprise, for me at least.
Definitely HBK, but I could see Undertaking helping with how both of them made the announcement.
Great inductee too.
That announcement table hit did look horrible, I wonder if he got the injury later on in the match through something else.
Though the new tables do seem the be able to withstand any hits now (and not rigged to break) so I wonder if the side of the table did it when he hit it and his head was thrown back.
Loved seeing him back. One of my favourites since he debuted.
Also nice twist at the end with the call.
I will never get bored of these backstage Boogyman pranks. I feel even though we won’t ever see him wrestle again, there will always be something for him to do.
Such a shame, I’m going to assume one of the reason is because Ricochet is no longer there and they want to spend more time together. In the short time (it seems short anyway) I’ve never heard a bad word about her announcing, she bought something different and unique to them, and from the clips that have been shared of her, she is just a big a fan as any other fan that watches.
I don’t think we’ll ever get someone who is as emotional in the ring announcements as Samantha is. Her calls when Sami Zayn and Cody won at WrestleMania will never be forgotten, you could hear her choking up when announcing Cody as the new champ.
Truly one of the best announcers in history.
I’m all for a great wrestling match, but sometimes seeing two monsters beat the living daylights out of each other is a sight to see. I say bring it on.
I now require more Seth the Ref cam with more commentary.
Anyone else feel that Dom costs Rhea the match tonight and goes with Liv? I just feel that there’s something gonna happen in that feud and what better way to give Dom even more heat than costing Rhea.
I see big things for him in WWE in the future.
Not only is she possibly the best ring announcer right now, she seems like she’s a genuine fan of wrestling with her reactions.
Not all in the same year though. So starting in 2025 with the Rumble, I’m guessing the other two over the course of two years.
This just makes the return of Roman now even more interesting. When Solo had three guys you could guess who Roman would side with to take them on (if that was to be a full on Bloodline Civil War thing.)
Now I’m wondering who, and how many Roman would have on his side if he did go against them.
Please let us get one more Kayla/Hayman interaction.
I noticed that Smackdown had the Prime logo on the ring. It didn’t take them long to go against the “prime logo only on ring at PLE’s” stance. Wonder if that will continue.
This stuff is gold from Drew. If Punk costs Drew the title in Scotland, he’s going to get booed out of the building.
Shame so much has to be done to keep things secret now, but how much more special and better where these two surprises because they weren’t known ahead of time?
Netflix are showing this live here in the UK at 19:00. I’m guessing that’s the same for all places that it’s on Netflix.
