Wwe May 2019 megathread: RECORD LOW RATINGS EDITION Boliever 05/01/2019 (Wed) 21:53:41 Id: b12591 No. 141319
RAM and Ratingsdown thread for may 2019 RAM >5/6 Cincinnati >5/13 London >5/20 Albany >5/27 Kansas City Smarkdown >5/7 Louisville >5/14 London >5/21 Providence >5/28 Tulsa Also since we're here WWE RATINGS DOWN BELOW 2 MILLION VIEWERS. >TNA in 2010 has better ratings than wwe in 2019 With that, Moxley leaving, and half the roster wanting to jump ship is this the actual death toll of WWE or is everyone getting worked up over nothing??!?!
WWE simultaneously feels like they are doing worse than ever (ratings, boring shows) and also better than ever (stocks, global presence, Fox deal etc). Also this post WM season is the worst but sure seems extra bad this time.
>>141324 It's not just WWE. It's everything. Clown world consists of things being shittier than ever in terms of quality while doing better than ever financially. General spiritual malaise and intellectual/creative decline combined with an off the charts levels of kikery and an average lower IQ of consumers will do that.
>>141325 True, didn't think much of other entertainment but the description fits. Creativity died and people paid to kill it.
>>141319 >is this the actual death toll of WWE This is the biggest reason why I still visit this board. I hope it will happen very soon. >>141325 >doing better than ever financially I have a hard time to bolieve that.
>>141390 They made that Fox deal worth $1 billion, which skyrocketed their stocks from $30 to $90 in months, currently at $85. Plus the saudis pay them big money to have shows there. Domestically they might not be doing that well but WWE at a global level might be bigger than ever so they probably get a good revenue from out of USA too.
>>141391 The problem with the fox deal is that if they don't deliver on ratings they're gonna get kicked off the main fox channel and they'll lose a shitton off their deal. It could seriously fuck them up when it inevitably fails on mainstream network tv. They NEED to change the program before it goes on there otherwise they are fucked. USA needs raw to survive so they can do whatever they want but smackdown will need to deliver ratings for fox to fulfill their contract
>>141431 The Fox deal pales in comparison to the money WWE is making overseas. Vince saw the writing on the wall a long time ago, he knew that the US Domestic market for sports entertainment was not the future, instead it was the billions of sand niggers and pajeets who he could cash in on. That's exactly what he's doing now. He realigned his product with the globo-homo multikulti status quo and now the mudpeople absolutely can't get enough. >b-but m-muh Saudi Arabia The current ruler of SA is part of the new batch of young globalist kikes who have gotten high on their own supply of neo-Bolshevik horse shit. He's on board with all the cancer that Super Steph brings to the table and has been actively trying to rebrand SA's image for years now into something that will be accepted by the greater globalist kike community. That's why Vince is all in with the ragheads. He's betting that in the next 50 years, Saudi Arabia will come to be seen by your average retard as "progressive." Is that a good bet? Could be. Who the fuck knows at this point. Clown world is unpredictable as fuck. All I know is that WWE as a company ain't going anywhere any time soon, regardless of how badly some of us want to see it crash and burn into ashes.
>>141439 The money they make overseas is essentially a stopgap, the tv deals they have over there are a fraction (at best) of the US ones. WWE's primary revenue flow is their US tv deals everything else they are basically losing money on. The saudi shows gave them a huge payout in the short term but besides that one Australia show no other country is doing this for them. Even places like india really don't get them that much solid revenue. The idea you're talking about might be potentially true in like 30 years but right now there is virtually no real money coming from overseas besides the saudi shows
>>141445 >The money they make overseas is essentially a stopgap, the tv deals they have over there are a fraction (at best) of the US ones. The second part of your statement is correct. The first part is not. You're not taking into consideration the merchandising that they do overseas. WWE is selling a whole shit ton of cheaply made crap to pajeets and dune coons these days. TV deals haven't been the WWE's primary source of income for a long ass time.
>>141445 The Saudi shows also don't work as a business model because it's novelty seeking by rich princes. >I bet I can get Sasha Banks to fuck my camel >No-no Aladdin, I bet I can get Sasha Banks to rim my camel! >Okay okay Muktar we have bet. Whichever one gets Vince McMahon to send us Sasha Banks for camel rimming wins >Okay Aladdin, it's a deal. And that's where the money comes from. As soon as it stops being a novelty to have a bunch of pet Americans cuddle each other in your area it stops being a viable way to make money. Sooner or later another fad will come along which will make WWE uncool or just a used up gimmick and then the money vanishes over night. WWE needs to aim at the Chinese market but they have Japanese wrestling and don't want to see happy negro and his 2 butt buddies dancing around. So Vince either suicides his US business or he gives up on China. If NXT UK is anything to go by his plan is to push his brand into Europe and hope it can grow there. But WWE was big in Europe at the same time as the USA. Hogan, Bret Hart and the Attitude era mirrored both places. So there isn't a new market to tap here.
>>141445 >>141451 They currently have a 10 year deal with Saudi Arabia which started since last year, 2018. After that, who knows, heck who knows if Vince will be still kickin' around micromanaging everything he probably will

Roman Reigns says he will appear on Monday Night Raw this week despite WWE's official response that he won't >WWE officials have learned of Roman Reigns’ desire to appear on this week’s Raw, but as of now, and due to his obligations as a SmackDown LIVE Superstar, he will not be appearing on Monday night’s show. >Reigns proclaimed Saturday morning via Twitter that he had “some business” on Raw, and that he would return to the red brand this Monday. However, WWE responded saying that will not be the case. Reigns then fired back, saying he still intended on kicking the show off despite WWE's response. https://twitter.com/WWERomanReigns/status/1124683766453153792 https://twitter.com/WWE/status/1124693192148959233 https://twitter.com/WWERomanReigns/status/1125087160527458305 All about the mon-aay >Braun Strowman, Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, Ricochet. All four have a chance to become the new Mr. Money in the Bank, and while it may seem like alliances and rivalries are starting to form, keep in mind we have a long way to go. For instance, Strowman and Ricochet were pretty chummy this past week, but it’s hard to imagine The Monster Among Men putting a temporary partnership over his quest to once again become Mr. Monster in the Bank. And while McIntyre at Corbin are at loggerheads, it’s possible each will take an enemy-of-my-enemy-is-my-friend view of things if it gets them closer to the contract. The point is, take nothing for granted. Clashing styles >It’d been a while since we saw the AJ Styles who showed up during Raw’s Universal Title Match contract signing — brash, cocky and ruthless — and it’s pretty clear Seth Rollins wasn’t quite expecting him, either. As evidence, witness the Phenomenal Forearm that left The Beastslayer in splinters after taking a trip through a table. With two weeks to go until Rollins defends his prize in the first-time-ever matchup, Styles is firmly in the driver’s seat and maybe in the champion’s head. If The Architect wants to keep up, a response will be required. You shave my back >Okay, so the headline shouldn’t have been that The Revival shave each other’s backs in the shower, but the mildly embarrassing footage obtained by The Usos was still enough to unman the “Top Guys” when all was said and done. The Usos now have a psychological edge in this young rivalry, and in order to catch up to their rivals, the former Raw Tag Team Champions have to either develop thicker skin or finish out their business between the ropes in a way they couldn’t this past week against Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins in what was otherwise a very impressive performance. In other words, this could be the beginning of a whole new Revival or the first humiliation of many. The choice is up to them. Mysterio-us ways >United States Champion Samoa Joe thought he had Rey Mysterio in the bag when they squared up for a rematch of the WrestleMania 35 quickie that saw Joe defeat his opponent in a minute flat. Surprise! Mysterio defeated The Samoan Submission Machine in a non-title match, leaving Joe shaken in the ring and Rey’s son Dominick beaming from ear-to-ear. Of course, while a win doesn’t guarantee anything for The Ultimate Underdog, his use of the hands-across-the-waist taunt atop his son’s shoulders says it all: He wants the title. And now, he’s got a case for a championship bout. A Lady in a Man's world >Now this is more like it! After weeks of jaw-jacking and sneak attacks, Lacey Evans dropped the mic and came at Stone Cold in an all-out brawl that instantly moved The Lady of WWE from “upstart cheap-shot artist” to “legitimate contender.” Now, Evans has some honest-to-goodness wind in her sails heading into her Raw Women’s Championship Match, and with it the chance to take advantage of the chaos and claim one of the Irishwoman’s treasures for her own. The Man, meanwhile, finds herself with a challenger she may have underestimated, or at the very least misjudged. And given that Charlotte Flair has been getting the better of Lynch on the blue side, Becky No Belts is a very real possibility.
>>141319 THE RATINGS ARE ONLY GOING UP, SHILL THE WWE IS NOTHING BUT A SUCCESS
>>141467 >Braun Strowman, Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, Ricochet. All four have a chance to become the new Mr. Money in the Bank >three guys who have been screwed over and held back vs some newfag to the WWE
>>141470 Mcintyre seems like the only guy that could win. But I'm tired of MiTB cash in championships, and for a guy like Mcintyre it would be better off to win it in a regular match. Also, the past two years both had failed MiTB cash ins.
>>141471 It could be Corbin. Cena fucked him over a few years ago, but maybe the Authority-lite gimmick built him up as a character enough, even if still dressing as a backstage bald guy when he still has his old gimmick's entrance (which he JUST botched even worse than usual) is pretty stupid.

Shane McMahon will crown new SmackDown Tag Team Champions >SmackDown LIVE was thrown for a loop last week when, due to Jeff Hardy sustaining a knee injury at the hands of Lars Sullivan, The Hardy Boyz had to relinquish the SmackDown Tag Team Titles. >With the state of both the blue brand’s tag team division and the titles in question, Shane McMahon will arrive on SmackDown LIVE this Tuesday to crown new SmackDown Tag Team Champions.What will Shane-O-Mac decree? Kevin Owens to respond to Kofi Kingston’s attack from last week >Kevin Owens got a taste of his own medicine last week when WWE Champion Kofi Kingston launched a massive retaliatory attack on KO to close out SmackDown LIVE. >The fired-up Kingston, who was still fuming after Owens’ ambushes on both him and Xavier Woods in recent weeks, had Owens reeling to such a degree that KO ultimately bailed. However, Owens will now respond to The Dreadlocked Dynamo’s attack tonight. Massive Six-Woman Tag Team Match to go down on the blue brand >Everyone has their eyes on prizes right now in the SmackDown LIVE Women’s division. >Tonight, Booley, Carmella and Ember Moon (all three of which will be in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match) will take on Charlotte Flair (who is facing off against Stone Cold for the SmackDown Women’s Title at WWE Money in the Bank), Mandy Rose (also in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match) and Sonya Deville (who graciously told Mandy to take the spot in the Ladder Match). >With less than two weeks until the Money in the Bank pay-per-view event, all six Superstars will absolutely be out to make a major impression. Which side will get the upper hand? Find out tonight on SmackDown LIVE. Ali and Andrade to square off tonight >Two of SmackDown LIVE’s four Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match representatives will face off tonight when Ali and Andrade clash with less than two weeks before the Money in the Bank pay-per-view event streams live on WWE Network. >Both Superstars are trying to gain pivotal momentum as the ever-important Ladder Match approaches, and Andrade will be looking for a measure of retribution after both he and Randy Orton were on the losing end of a tag team match against Ali and Finn Bálor last week. Who will prevail in this contest of rising Superstars? Which Raw Superstars will take advantage of the "Wild Card Rule?" >Last night on Raw, Mr. McMahon dropped a bombshell by announcing the Wild Card Rule, which will allow no more than four Superstars from SmackDown LIVE to appear on Raw each week and four Raw Superstars on SmackDown LIVE, without facing any punishment. >WWE Champion Kofi Kingston, Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan and Lars Sullivan took advantage of the new precedent, with Bryan and Kingston squaring off for the WWE Title in the main event, Reigns clashing with Drew McIntyre in a WrestleMania rematch and Lars Sullivan demolishing No Way Jose and his conga line, then storming into Mr. McMahon’s office, prompting the expansion of the Wild Card Rule from three Superstars to four. >Will any of the red brand’s stars take advantage of the new rule?

>>141530 Just a quick, small example from Bray's Twitter. How on the nose is this shit? What if, instead Bray advised kids to Show Outstanding Consideration and Intelligent Observation. C'mon, everybody, let's take the S.O.C.I.O path. Then you could do S.O.C.I.O. Path t-shirts and other merch. But again, I don't have five years so fuck me, right? WWE took a shit on a perfectly good character with the original Bray and now that everything's in the shitter they want to revive him from their own burial. He should be the new age Undertaker and drawing huge dimes but instead they made him a joke. I don't get this fucking company, I really don't. This new approach from him is brilliant but it's so advanced I really wonder if your average WWE fan will even get it. And i'm still holding my breath waiting on them to fuck Bray over again.

Seth Rollins and AJ Styles brace for monumental title collision >Mr. McMahon knew what he was doing when he ordered Universal Champion Seth Rollins to team up with his WWE Money in the Bank challenger AJ Styles in an impromptu tag team match this past Monday night on Raw. As tensions boiled over – assuredly to The Chairman’s delight – Styles hit Rollins with a seemingly accidental Phenomenal Forearm that left The Beastslayer vulnerable to an End of Days that sealed the win for their opponents, Baron Corbin & Bobby Lashley. >What’s going through the minds of these Superstars in the aftermath of that heated confrontation? Who will drop in thanks to the “Wild Card Rule”? >This past Monday night, Mr. McMahon was inspired by the surprise appearances of SmackDown LIVE Superstars Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan, Lars Sullivan and WWE Champion Kofi Kingston on Raw, instituting a “Wild Card Rule” to allow four Superstars from SmackDown LIVE to head to Raw on a given night and vice versa. The rule brought us an unprecedented two WrestleMania rematches in a single evening, and things are just getting started. >SmackDown LIVE saw The Usos, AJ Styles, Sami Zayn and The Miz drop in from Monday Night Raw.

Samoa Joe moves in on Rey Mysterio’s family >In a tense backstage encounter last Monday, United States Champion Samoa Joe formally met and intimidated Rey Mysterio’s son Dominick, accusing Rey’s progeny of disrespect when Dominick lifted The Ultimate Underdog up on his shoulders following Mysterio’s non-title win over The Samoan Submission Machine. >Joe is confident there will be no such victory celebration for Rey and Dominick when Mysterio challenges him for the United States Title at WWE Money in the Bank. How will Rey Mysterio react to Joe’s mind games just six nights before their title clash? Rambling Rabbit rambles no more >“Firefly Fun House” became even more disturbing than usual last week, with Mercy the Buzzard making a meal out of Rambling Rabbit and Bray Wyatt having a picnic with a half-dozen morose children. Something is clearly amiss in the Fun House. What awaits us there next time? Braun Strowman takes out the trash >As Sami Zayn berated and criticized the WWE Universe yet again this past Monday night, Braun Strowman emerged to silence the outspoken Superstar, chasing Zayn to the backstage area and tossing him into a dumpster that was carried away by a garbage truck. >Who will be next to “get these hands” from the rampaging Monster Among Men, who looks to become a two-time “Monster in the Bank” by winning the Men’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match?

Money is the Beast >In one of the most stunning moments in WWE Money in the Bank history, Brock Lesnar emerged out of nowhere as a replacement to the attacked Sami Zayn and laid waste to Ali to capture the Money in the Bank contract. As a result, Seth Rollins will surely have little time to celebrate his victory over AJ Styles. As if The Beast wasn’t already one of the most dangerous threats to the Universal Championship, Lesnar comes with the complete unpredictability of a Money in the Bank cash-in, whenever he chooses to utilize it. Will light be shed on Lesnar’s latest conquest and how it came to be? A new championship emerges >One of the more unexpected twists of WWE Money in the Bank — and there was some competition — was the announcement that WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley would return to Raw to unveil WWE’s newest championship. Speculation immediately began about what the former Raw General Manager could have in store for WWE, but hints are scarce. Uso Rules >The Usos are in the catbird seat right about now. Not only do they have the advantage as they weigh a challenge from The Revival, but a non-title victory over Daniel Bryan & Rowan on the WWE Money in the Bank Kickoff has SmackDown Tag Team Championship implications as well, via the Wild Card Rule. The world is Jimmy & Jey’s oyster, and they have their pick of grudges to pursue: Personal vendetta or, perhaps, championship gold. What’s it gonna be? Becky One Belt >Stone Cold survived a tough challenge from Lacey Evans to retain her Raw Women’s Championship at WWE Money in the Bank, but The Lady of WWE made sure Lynch was less fortunate against Charlotte Flair. Evans attacked Lynch with the Woman’s Right in the middle of the Irishwoman’s second title defense, allowing The Queen to relieve her of the SmackDown Women’s Championship. With one title left to her name, Becky returns to Raw somewhat diminished, but no less motivated. The Man threw hands with Lacey immediately following the ambush, and while Charlotte’s own rivalry with Booley (who cashed in on The Queen moments later to win the blue jewel) is just beginning, it seems Becky vs. Lacey is about to start a furious second act.

The New Day present Big E’s Welcome Back Celebration >After spending the past month on the shelf (and Twitter) following knee surgery, Big E is returning to SmackDown LIVE, and The New Day could not be happier! In fact, WWE Champion Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are throwing a celebration you won’t want to miss. What do they have planned to welcome back their friend? Booley & Stone Cold team up to face Charlotte Flair & Lacey Evans >After a chaotic night at WWE Money in the Bank, SmackDown LIVE will be just as wild for the women of Team Blue. Newly crowned SmackDown Women’s Champion Booley, who cashed in her Money in the Bank contract to dethrone Charlotte Flair, will team up with Raw Women’s Champion Stone Cold to take on The Queen and Raw’s Lacey Evans in tag team action. >Lynch will surely be out for payback on The Queen for taking her SmackDown Women’s Title and on The Sassy Southern Belle for interfering in the match. What will happen in this highly combustible tag team throwdown? Kofi Kingston goes one-on-one with Sami Zayn >WWE Champion Kofi Kingston may have the specter of Brock Lesnar cashing in his Money in the Bank contract hanging over him, but The Dreadlocked Dynamo will have to put his focus on another rival’s close friend tonight, as he goes one-on-one with Sami Zayn. >Kingston defeated Zayn’s best friend Kevin Owens to retain his title at Money in the Bank, but will now have to deal with Zayn, who’s taking advantage of the Wild Card Rule to battle the WWE Champion. What will SmackDown Women’s Champion Booley say in exclusive interview? >Booley stunned the world at WWE Money in the Bank, first by winning the Women’s Ladder Match to earn the contract for a guaranteed championship match, then by cashing in and defeating Charlotte Flair to win the SmackDown Women’s Title mere moments after The Queen dethroned Stone Cold. >Now that she’s at the top of Team Blue, how will Booley start her reign? We’ll find out during an exclusive interview with the new champion. Roman Reigns and Elias clash in a WWE Money in the Bank rematch >Though Elias smashed a guitar over his back before their match on Sunday, Roman Reigns would not let the crooner escape WWE Money in the Bank unpunished. The [LOUD LEUKEMIA] floored Elias with a Superman Punch on the entranceway and followed up with a ring-rattling Spear to pick up the victory. >However, the score is far from settled between the two, as they will collide in a WWE Money in the Bank rematch on SmackDown LIVE. To make matters more complicated, Reigns’ WWE Super ShowDown opponent, Shane McMahon, will be in Elias’ corner. Who will walk out of SmackDown LIVE victorious? Who will bring the 24/7 Championship to SmackDown LIVE? >WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley came to Raw last night to make a major announcement, unveiling the WWE 24/7 Championship – a title that can be won and defended at any time, day or night, as long as a WWE official is present. >It was chaos from there as Superstars scrambled to the ring to become the first champion. Titus O’Neil earned the unique distinction after emerging with the title from a frantic scramble for the championship. However, O’Neil didn’t make it out of the arena with the title. First, he was defeated by Robert Roode during his celebration. Roode, who spent the rest of Raw on the run from his fellow Superstars, was dethroned by SmackDown LIVE’s R-Truth, who hid The Glorious One in the trunk of his car to throw the chasing Superstars off his scent. A waiting referee in the passenger seat gave Truth the opening to pin Roode and claim the title for himself. Will Truth make it to SmackDown LIVE as the champion, or will one (or more) Superstars take hold of WWE’s newest championship? Will Daniel Bryan’s tag team revolution continue? >Daniel Bryan’s promise to change tag team competition hit a bump in the road during the WWE Money in the Bank Kickoff when he and Rowan lost to The Usos in a non-title match. >A strangely meditative Bryan was interviewed after the battle, during which he promised to “stand up” and reevaluate his revolution. Will he show the results of his reflections? Carmella to clash with Mandy Rose >The bad blood between Carmella and Mandy Rose won’t just be contained to the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, as the two will collide tonight on SmackDown LIVE. >The tensions between the two began during the Ladder Match when The Golden Goddess attacked Carmella, seemingly forcing The Princess of Staten Island out of the match with a knee injury. However, Carmella refused to stay down, as she returned to the battle and went right after Mandy. >With nobody else in the way, what will happen when these two rivals do battle in the squared circle?
>show up half an hour late >it's Andrade "one of the few NXT callups they're actually doing something with" Cien Almas vs Mustafa Ali or HWNDU Jesus they look so similar based on my admittedly faulty memory

Brock Lesnar to announce blockbuster decision >“Beast in the Bank” Brock Lesnar has been circling Universal Champion Seth Rollins and WWE Champion Kofi Kingston like a shark, and per Paul Heyman, “The Purveyor of Paranoia” will finally reveal which World Champion he will cash in on this Monday night on Raw. >Might The Conqueror seek payback against Rollins, who defeated Lesnar for the Universal Title at WrestleMania? Or will he look to end Kingston’s 11-year WWE Championship journey in heartBREAK and destruction, mere days before he is set to defend it against Dolph Ziggler at WWE Super ShowDown? Future of the United States Championship to be addressed >In the conclusion of the United States Championship Match at WWE Money in the Bank, the referee issued a three-count that awarded Rey Mysterio the star-spangled title. However, Samoa Joe’s left shoulder was clearly off the mat, resulting in no small amount of controversy. >In a self-recorded proclamation aired during Monday Night Raw, Joe said he is willing to “gift” Rey a chance to hand him back the title. >“Rey, I’m giving you the opportunity to lead by example. To be the man that I know you hope Dominick grows to be,” Joe said, once again invoking the name of Mysterio’s son. “Because if you don’t, just imagine the example that I will set for you.” 24/7 Championship chaos continues >R-Truth left SmackDown LIVE with the all-new 24/7 Championship. However, given the fact that the title can change hands anytime or anywhere, it’s anyone’s guess as to who could be holding the title when Raw comes on the air at 8/7 C on USA Network. >With Superstars clamoring for the title at all hours of the day – and its holder in a near-constant state of disarray – the 24/7 Championship ushers in a calamitous new era for all brands in WWE. Who will be Stone Cold’s next challenge? >After defeating Lacey Evans at WWE Money in the Bank to retain her Raw Women’s Championship, Stone Cold bested The Lady of WWE in back-to-back tag team matches on Raw and SmackDown LIVE. >Despite these setbacks, The Sassy Southern Belle affirmed in a WWE.com interview Tuesday night that she has unfinished business with The Man and that she is “the future Raw Women’s Champion.” Will Evans earn another opportunity to battle Becky, or will another challenger emerge?

But Kingston’s condition heading into the match has to be questioned, as the WWE Champion was once again attacked by his Super ShowDown opponent, Dolph Ziggler, last night on Raw. >Can Kingston fight through the pain and defeat his rival, or will KO put himself in line for another championship opportunity? Dolph Ziggler to appear on “The Kevin Owens Show” >And if facing the WWE Champion wasn’t enough for KO, he’ll also be welcoming Kofi Kingston’s Super ShowDown opponent, Dolph Ziggler, to “The Kevin Owens Show.” >After viciously attacking Kingston on last week’s SmackDown LIVE and last night’s Raw, as well as brutally assaulting Xavier Woods with a chair on Monday, what will Ziggler have to say as next Friday’s championship match draws near? Booley goes one-on-one with Raw’s Lacey Evans >The target on Booley’s back is only getting bigger, and with the Wild Card Rule in effect, there’s twice as many Superstars gunning for the SmackDown Women’s Champion. >Tonight on SmackDown LIVE, The Hugger will go one-on-one with Raw’s Sassy Southern Belle, Lacey Evans. Last week, Booley teamed up with Raw Women’s Champion Stone Cold to defeat Evans & Charlotte Flair. Will the result be the same in this singles bout? How will Roman Reigns respond to Shane McMahon and his “insurance policy”? >Roman Reigns looked to have Shane McMahon in his sights last week on SmackDown LIVE, only for Raw’s Drew McIntyre to blindside him with a devastating Claymore Kick. >The antagonism toward The [LOUD LEUKEMIA] continued on Raw last night when McMahon and McIntyre viciously attacked Lance Anoa’i, a cousin of Roman’s. When “The Best in The World” took things a little too far by locking on a second triangle hold post-match, The [LOUD LEUKEMIA] came to his cousin’s aid, taking McIntyre out with a Superman Punch that staggered The Scottish Terminator but gave McMahon an opening to escape by the skin of his teeth. >Now that Shane McMahon has crossed another line by going after Roman’s family, how will The [LOUD LEUKEMIA] respond? Can R-Truth make it through another night as 24/7 Champion? >It’s been a rough week for 24/7 Champion R-Truth. Despite his best efforts to hide from his fellow Superstars, Truth has yet to have a peaceful moment since dethroning Robert Roode for the title. It was no different when he made his way to Raw last night for The Usos’ block party. >R-Truth got rolled up and nearly lost the title on several occasions, but he once again ran off into the night as a cadre of Superstars gave chase. Will it once again be #RunTruthRun on SmackDown LIVE, or will a new 24/7 Champion be crowned?
