Maybe they're hinting at joining AEW"s women's division? I mean, they do have dudes wrestling in it.

I still haven't seen Tyson Fury vs Braun Strowman or the universal title match. I'll watch it later when I get home from work before SD.

Crown jewel will still be there when you get off work. Now get back to work dammit! Them burgers ain't gonna flip themselves!

Didn’t Braun kick out of like 4 of them? And it took 3 to beat Brock both times? It’s not a protected finish.

Before yesterday, when was the last time someone kicked out of an RKO?

So a demon, a beast and a monster kicked out of a couple curb stomps? Roman Reigns also kicked out of 6 F5s once.

RKO is the most protected finish in the business, but it's one of the only ones you can name that is. Nearly everything else has been spammed kicked out of. Seth went through like 4 crappy finishes when WWE banned his stomp. I'd rather not go through that again because WWE doesn't know how not to spam finish kick outs. The finish is fine. The booking just needs to change.

Pretty sure the RKO has been kicked out of a good number of times in high profile matches.

My entire point is over the past 4 months, Seth Rollins’ finished has died a slow death. And yes it is the booking. The top guy shouldn’t have everyone no selling his finish.

If you know the booking is the problem then getting a new finish won't help since those same 3 guys will kick out of his new one and I'd rather not go through lame ripcord knees again.

I wouldn't mind if he started using the Small Package Driver again, though, and used the curb stomp more sparingly in an attempt to rebuild its reputation.

Goes back to what I’ve been saying since before HITC; he shouldn’t have been booked with Bray.

Look at the past 6 weeks. They unintentionally turned Seth heel with the fans; killed his finish. Killed the concept of Hell in A Cell. And borderline had Bray on life support
