JamieStevenson Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Couple of fresh matches but even those won't convince me to watch this live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Interested in Joe/Ricochet (which better get time) and that’s about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 I take this Rollins/Corbin match is just in place to further Corbin's feud with John Cone? Corbin's ref will be out cold and John runs down to a huge pop and counting the pin for Rollins. Also it's been 7 months since New Day have been anywhere near the tag title picture. They need to win here and go on to face Bryan/Rowan to get things back on track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Had there of been no Saudi Arabia show then this would’ve been much fresher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdhafc1874 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Random thought.Whoever it is, though in this scenario Heyman would be best - the ref helps to eventually cost Rollins the title.Rollins goes ape shit, beats Corbin up with his chair, Brock comes out & cashes in on Corbin instead of Rollins.Sets up angry Seth on run to Summerslam for Brock rematch & gets the shortest Universal title reign off of Balor too.

thekorean Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 What part of Scotland is Drew McIntyre from? Is his accent the norm, or has it been worn down from years of working in America? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Great match from the Cruisers, crowd were right into it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Ricochet wins! Very solid first hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 I haven't watched any of the show yet. However I've just seen that they've rolled 2 stinking feuds into the main event. Oaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Clusterfuck of a main event but a solid show up until then. Enjoyable watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulp Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 What part of Scotland is Drew McIntyre from? Is his accent the norm, or has it been worn down from years of working in America?I believe it’s Ayrshire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Venom Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Aye, Ayr. His accent is a mess. He was a few years below me at Prestwick Academy. His accent has just been affected to round out his Ayrshire twang, unlike Dar who fully embraces his west coast wide boy accent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Working from home today, so actually had the chance to watch this "live" the morning after. As usual, when there's absolutely no expectations on them, they pull out something solid. A pretty good show right up to the main event, then it lost its way a bit. Still an alright main event regardless, they're clearly trying not to just make it all about the relationship in the traditional WWE sense with all the little touches from Becky, but it's a dangerous line. Just a bit of "feel-good" storyline on a largely nothing show. Lets Rollins retain in a more interesting way, and moves everything along. 3 hours ago, Jeff Venom said: He was a few years below me at Prestwick Academy.

FifeArab Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Watched this when I woke up. Like It’s been said, when there’s total doubt and lack of Interest they actually run a good show. Thought this was a half decent watch. Would like to see something fresher now heading In to extreme rules like Cesaro, Black and Ali In the title hunts.

JamieStevenson Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 Cruiserweight triple threat, New Day vs Zayn/KO, US title & SD tag title were all really great. Can't bring myself to watch the 2nd half of the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When pushed on what part of Glasgow, he said Dundee!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
