Cena is on Team Smackdown. So he just picks what brand he wants to work under?

These cruiserweights will never match the WCW cruiserweights. The cruiserweights would have the best "wrestling match" on the card at the PPV's or Nitro. I still loved the NWO though.

Those PPVs gave them more than 3-5 minutes per match too.

"Free Agent"

They have a couple dates in India in December that Mahal will be at so we'll see if this was just short term booking to appease Brock.

There were rumors that Jinder was working with an injury. Perhaps they tryna get him healthy for when they go to India.

Exactly. Go back and watch some Nitro right now, they would get 5 min most of the time and they would do a lot of cool s**t in those 5 min. But these guys now are going 15-20 min a match. You can't just do springboard flips for 20 min straight.

Talent wise, this generation is so much better than the 90s guys. Of course they aren't that entertaining on the mic and most don't even have the charisma of Prince Albert, but there's no question how much better these guys are in the ring.

Sami Zayn is so out of shape. I didn't notice until Kofi pointed it out.

when was he in shape lol

KO and Sami going into the doghouse. Also, dont be surprised if Mahal regains the belt.

-- In a decision approved by Vince McMahon, both Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were kicked off the remainder of WWE's overseas tour and sent home after yesterday's SmackDown in Manchester, England for conduct deemed detrimental to the WWE.

-- Multiple sources both internally and externally confirmed to Sports Illustrated that Owens and Zayn's offense was "going into business for themselves" regarding their on-camera work during yesterday's SmackDown.

-- The move to have AJ Styles capture the WWE Title over Jinder Mahal was a decision made directly by Vince McMahon sometime last week. There is much speculation on why this change was made, with most believing that McMahon felt that a Mahal vs. Lesnar match was not something fans were looking forward to see though it's possible the title could change back in the future, especially with WWE heading to India next month.

ya nobody seems to know what they did yet.

Multiple sources tell Pro Wrestling Sheet that Sami and Owens were supposed to "feed" for New Day after the Zayn vs. Kofi match. KO attacked Kofi after the pin and both men quickly bailed out the ring before The New Day could get their payback.

"Feeding" is "The heel's role during a babyface comeback where he runs at the babyface only to be repeatedly fended off, with the hope that the series of bumps by the heel will generate positive fan heat for the babyface."

Multiple sources have reached out saying the duo have been slightly difficult to work with lately and seem very unhappy backstage. Both men were close to Jimmy Jacobs and Neville. Which may be a reason for their unhappiness.

Dunno how true it is, but reading apparently Lesnar told Vince he wouldn't work a match w/ Jinder and threatened to not show up at Survivor Series if that was the case

Racist
