]]> Five Potential Twists We Could See At Survivor Series /five-potential-twists-we-could-see-at-survivor-series/ Wed, 08 Nov 2017 13:13:00 +0000 /five-potential-twists-we-could-see-at-survivor-series/

The last month has been a crazy time to be a fan of the WWE. First, there was an illness striking down key players like Roman Reigns, forcing Kurt Angle to return to the ring at TLC, and now, AJ styles has just defeated Jinder Mahal on an episode of Smackdown to become the new WWE champion.

Styles’ unlikely victory and The Bar picking up the tag team titles from Ambrose and Rollins on Monday night has given Survivor Series a little makeover this week, and with Natalya facing Charlotte on next week’s Smackdown, don’t be surprised to see another change just yet.

Survivor Series is now shaping up to be one hell of a card, and with the WWE in full-blown surprise mode at the moment, anything is possible a week on Sunday. The show is famous for its twists and turns and the inter-brand warfare angle allows them plenty of opportunities to set up future matches and angles, especially with Wrestlemania season on the horizon.

So what twists ight this year’s Survivor Series have in store for us? Let’s take a look at five potential twists we could see next Sunday night.

Carmella cashes in, on Alexa Bliss 

Carmella has been teasing her Money in the Bank cash-in for months now and every pay-per-view that roles around creates speculation as to how and when she is going to do it. The logical assumption has always been that she is going to cash it on the Smackdown Woman’s Champion, whoever that happens to be, but it has not been made clear as to whether or not she can cash it on just the blue brand’s champion, or either of the women’s champs.

Survivor Series will see the two brand’s champions clash, and while the Smackdown side of things could see either Natalya or Charlotte as champ, Raw’s is definitely going to be Bliss.

Having Carmella cash in on Bliss would be a huge surprise, but if the opportunity were to present itself, then from a kayfabe point of view, she would be stupid not to take it.

She has also just presumably, severed her ties with James Ellsworth, which would free her up to join Monday nights and potentially join up with her real-life partner, Big Cass, who should be set to return from injury very soon. Having Carmella use Cass as protection would be a great gimmick for her, and would also present a strong challenge for Asuka, who is inevitably going to be winning the title in the very near future. Doing this at the start of the night would really establish a sense of ‘anything can happen tonight’ for the pay-per-view as well.

]]> Natalya Talks About Her New Co-Stars on Total Divas /natalya-talks-about-her-new-co-stars-on-total-divas/ Sun, 22 Oct 2017 12:41:00 +0000 /natalya-talks-about-her-new-co-stars-on-total-divas/

WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Natalya expressed her thoughts about her new co-stars on the return of Total Divas in her latest column for the Calgary Sun.

Three new WWE Superstars will be introduced in the seventh season of Total Divas. Alexa Bliss, Nia Jax and Carmella will join the cast along with the Bella Twins, Naomi, Lana, Maryse and Natalya.

Natalya said the following about the RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss:

“Alexa Bliss is your feisty and adorable Raw Women’s Champion, and when we were on SmackDown together, she, Carmella and I would refer to each other as “Three disgruntled blondes.” In other words, we were bad girls having a whole lot of fun! Alexa is very open about her troubles with body image and balancing home life and work. She and Nia Jax hilariously remind me of Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie “Twins.” Just watch and you will see.”

On Nia Jax:

“Nia Jax is bold, bright and beautiful. She is not your “average girl,” as she wears her heart on her sleeve and says what she feels. Nia is a force in the ring, but she also shows a much softer side outside the squared circle, especially when she searches for love in NYC. You need to be one strong man to handle Nia, and that’s a good thing.”

Natalya then spoke of Carmella, who she compares with Rachel Green from the “Friends.”

“Carmella is like Jennifer Aniston as Rachel on “Friends.” I adore this girl. She is there for you when you need her, but she finds herself in quirky situations quite often. One of the coolest aspects of this upcoming season is getting to witness the women of SmackDown Live make history in the ring competing in the first ever Money in the Bank ladder match. Carmella wins the briefcase and becomes “Miss Money in the Bank.” However, in winning this accolade, she nearly costs me my dreams of becoming the WWE Women’s Champion.”

Total Divas will premiere with its seventh season on 1 November on the E! Network.

]]> Speculation on Carmella Cashing In The MITB Contract Soon /speculation-on-carmella-cashing-in-the-mitb-contract-soon/ Fri, 13 Oct 2017 16:37:00 +0000 /speculation-on-carmella-cashing-in-the-mitb-contract-soon/

There is a lot of speculation that Carmella is going to win the SmackDown Women’s Championship sooner or later as the company is building towards her as the champion.

Dave Meltzer indicated in the latest issue of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that her loss on television recently is an indication of just that.

Meltzer wrote, “Lynch beat Carmella in 2:57 with the disarmer. What’s so cool about WWE booking is that every Carmella loss means that she’s one step closer to cashing in and winning the title.”

Typically when a Money in the Bank contract holder loses a series of matches, WWE books them to cash in shortly after.

]]> Best Hell in a Cell Matches in Recent History /best-hell-in-a-cell-matches-in-recent-history/ Sat, 07 Oct 2017 13:33:00 +0000 /best-hell-in-a-cell-matches-in-recent-history/

Hell in a Cell has been around for 20 years now. Between 1997 and today, nearly 40 matches have been contested inside Satan’s Structure. While the stipulation has produced many classics (who can forget Undertaker v. the Big Boss Man?), there have been a fair share of stinkers as well.

Obviously the older Cell matches are better (blood and brutality really add to the match), but there have also been some real classics in recent history. Since 2010, nearly 20 matches took place inside the Devil’s Playground. Which of these newer matches is the best? I’ll try my best to rank them.

 

4. Daniel Bryan v. Randy Orton (Hell in a Cell, 2013)

This was the sort-of culmination of the feud between Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton. After Bryan won the title at Summerslam, Orton cashed in his Money in the Bank contract, and the rest is history. Bryan won the title back at Night of Champions, but then he was stripped of it after a supposed fast count. After a draw at Battleground, the duo were set to settle their differences inside Hell in a Cell.

They went to war inside the structure. There were chairs involved. Lots of chairs. Also Shawn Michaels was there, for some reason. While Orton and Bryan failed to truly set the world on fire in previous bouts, they delivered here. There was lots of violence and barbarism on display here.

Shawn Michaels eventually kicked Bryan’s head off, which allowed Orton to pick up the win. Many believed this was the end of Bryan’s story, but he would get his win back at Wrestlemania the following year.

]]> Edge Says It Feels Like WWE Is Finally Pulling the Trigger on Kevin Owens /edge-says-it-feels-like-wwe-is-finally-pulling-the-trigger-on-kevin-owens/ Fri, 22 Sep 2017 13:14:00 +0000 /edge-says-it-feels-like-wwe-is-finally-pulling-the-trigger-on-kevin-owens/

On the recent episode of E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness, WWE Hall Of Famer Edge talked about the feud between WWE SmackDown Live Commissioner Shane McMahon and WWE Superstar Kevin Owens, and the WWE Chairman taking a headbutt from Kevin. Edge also talked about Vince McMahon supporting him during his first championship tenure.

Edge says the headbutt angle was surprising to him and that Vince has faith in Kevin Owens. Edge says that heis interested in what Vince said to Kevin before taking the headbutt, because Vince said some motivational words to him before he was going to cash in his Money In The Bank briefcase.

“Hell of a headbutt. I didn’t see that one coming. Yeah, yep. So here’s the thing: they built it throughout the show, which was great. And it seems like they’re pulling the trigger on Owens. Like, properly now. Not that he… I mean, he held almost every title in the company already, he basically been champion the entire time he been there, but I mean, this, this is a next level type of thing. I’m assuming main eventing Hell In A Cell pay-per-view with Shane now and if anyone is a master of making sure people get put over in matches, it’s Shane. Here’s what I really want to know – I want to know what Vince was saying to Kev right before the headbutt because you can see he’s laying something on him and I know how Vince talks like that. Like when I came out and handed in the briefcase, he says stuff to you and it’s motivating stuff, so I’d really like to find out what was said there.

Edge goes on to say that Vince told him to “prove him right” because Vince had faith in Edge over his decision to push him, while the others at WWE didn’t share the same thoughts as Vince and believed the push was “too soon” for Edge.

“‘Prove me right. Prove me right.’ because he was the only one that was in my corner. Everybody else either thought it was too soon after nine years with the company, or didn’t think it was going to work, or whatever. I mean, if I was going to have anybody in my corner, he’s the right guy to have and, thankfully, I did prove him right. But hearing that, right as I was about [to cash in], I was ready to chew the world apart, so I’d really like to know what that dialogue was because he’s not going to put somebody over that strong unless he sees something.”

Edge stated that this feud could make Kevin Owens a “made man”.

“Good angle. It will be interesting going forward after Hell In A Cell where Owens goes because it could be argued that he got jumped passed the world title in terms of like, whoa, I don’t want to say ‘importance’, but in terms of interest. It will be interesting to see going forward because it could make Kevin a made man, basically going off of this and if it’s continued because work-wise, he just keeps doing what he’s doing. Maybe, yeah… And he’s a heel, which is not the case a lot nowadays. Like I’ve said, there are not too many heels and he’s one of them.”

This year’s SummerSlam is expected to run for at least six hours, according to multiple sources. The kickoff show is scheduled to start at 5PM and run for two hours with the main pay-per-view beginning at 7PM and lasting approximately four hours.

The pre-show is expected to feature at least three pre-show matches. Rumored matches include The Usos vs. The New Day, The Hardy Boys vs Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson and/or the Cruiserweight match or Big Cass vs. Big Show.

The Smackdown Women’s Championship match between Naomi and Natalya is also a possibility, but if there are plans to have Carmella cash in her Money in the Bank contract, it wouldn’t make sense for it to happen before the event officially starts.

We will keep you updated once an announcement is made.
