Zayn and Owens certainly have chemistry together and with Zayn floundering it could only help him to work with KO. The rumor is AJ and Shane vs KO/Zayn for a bit until after the tour in India at which point AJ will (I assume quickly) get the title.

[Angel Oracle]

Agreed that Zayn seemed to stagnate.   He and KO have been good friends for many years, kind of like Edge and Christian with both being Canadian.

Maybe revive the late 90s Hart family anti-America storyline?

Shield is back together, officially!

Shield vs Miz/The Bar/Strowman at TLC in a handicap match

Classic Shield, triple power bomb to Miz in the ring and also to Strowman through the announce table!

You'd have to assume there will be some shenanigans in this match that will naturally lead into a traditional Survivor Series match up next month, right??

[Angel Oracle]

Looks like Thomas is right.

The Shield vs. Miz/Sheamus/Cesaro/Strowman/Kane on Sunday?   WTF?

[Thomas]

Maybe not.  Rumors now of an Undertaker/Kane vs Shield match at Suvivor Series. 

[Thomas]

Roman Reigns, Bo Wyatt and brother Bo Dallas out for TLC.

Some has-been called Kurt Angle will be replacing Reigns in the main event.

[Angel Oracle]

2/3 Shield + Angle defeat Miz/The Bar/Strowman/Kane at TLC = I get it, but only in the WWE do you have 3 defeating 5.    Had to be a weird PPV, with no Reigns or Wyatt.

The Styles/Balor match was supposedly epic though, some giving it an A score.   They even mocked Gallows/Anderson with the Bullet Club "too sweet" signal after the match.  

Enzo wins the Cruiserweight title again?   WTF?   I get that he's a 10 with the mic.   But in ring skills = closer to a 1 then a 10.   Plus he stole Gail Kim's TNA Impact finishing move.

They weren't mocking Gallows/Anderson. They both were the leaders of the Bullet Club in Japan. AJ rolled with Gallows/Anderson for a while. It was a really cool nod to that. I'd love a SHIELD vs Bullet Club feud. It's a good idea though so WWE won't do it.

I was thinking it was a sign of respect for their fellow Bullet Club members.   But I then read something where the WWE is frowning on Gallows/Anderson doing it.   Don’t know why the WWE would be concerned, unless it’s either A) supposed to be a NJPW trademark, or ) Vinnie Mac sees it as copying the NWO’s Nash and Hall too sweet gesture?

[Angel Oracle]

The other result from yesterday: Strowman’s possible face turn after his own team attacked him?

He has been a tweener, kind of like Lesnar.

I think the E will keep this close to the vest. It may have been an intentional tease by the company or AJ/Finn going into business for themselves. But you'd think at some point they would realize that a Shield/Club feud would print money.

Welcome back, Joe! 

[Angel Oracle]

HHH did a nice gesture.  He invited the WS champ Astros team to be special guests at SurvivorSeries weekend in Houston.

[nando714]

Survivor series ..so far so good 

next year at staples center 

[Angel Oracle]

Who else saw KO/Zayn turning on their SD brethren, by attacking Shane-O-Mac and helping cost them the match?

Many likely saw HHH turning on Angle, to take the glory for himself and help win it for the RAW team? 

Yep, SurvivorSeries, RAW, and SD three straight evenings in SoCal a year from now 

[nando714]

Lol

[Angel Oracle]

As I suspected could happen one day, MITB was just made the 5th major PPV, joining RR, WM, Summerslam, and SurvivorSeries.   It will be cross-branded like the other four.

That’s a fun ppv

Just watched Psych the movie, which included Cena and Charlotte.

[Angel Oracle]

Rich Swan indefinitely suspended for allegedly attacking his wife, wrestler Su Yung.

If true, kick him out of the WWE and throw the book at him.

[Angel Oracle]

We find out Sunday at Clash of Champions if Shane-O is turning heel, as rumored.    Now there's TWO guest refs for the Zayn/KO vs Viper/Shinsake match (Shane-O and Daniel Bryan).

Obviously, Zayn/KO will win, because they aren't leaving the WWE.    Bryan intercedes when Shane-O tries to screw Zayn/KO, and saves the match for them, and Shane-O then turns on Bryan? 

[Angel Oracle]

Saw NXT for the first time last night (special USA network broadcast), and who should I see managing a team called Authors of Pain?

Yep, legendary Road Warriors/LOD manager Paul Ellering

Wonder if he has one more WWE run in him as a manager?

[Angel Oracle]

So, was the quick 3 count by Daniel Bryan just righting a wrong, where Shane-O refused to count to 3 when Zayn pinned Orton?   

Does Shane-O turn heel over that?    Do DB and Shane-O collide at the Royal Rumble?

[HaloCory22]

@Angel Oracle you check out WK12? Jericho vs Omega. Blew away any match WWE has had in years. Check it out on youtube. They have the full match. I really hope Kenny comes to WWE soon and they can have a Wrestlemania rematch.
