One ocean away from Old Trafford.
In case ya'll are sleeping on this, Total Nonstop Deletion is the gift that keeps on giving.

"The Kid hasn't even had a match yet, and he's more over than me!"

Wait, Abbyss just literally murdered some local jobbers right? Died at fecking Hornswoggle showing up though.

"Matt Hardy you broken son of a bitch, let me down. Please let me down"

"Even the man with Three H's would be proud of the way we buried this promising young talent." I'm done. This is the absolute highlight of 2016. No way life gets better than this.

Another PPV tonight. Read that there has been abysmal ticket sales for it.

Can see why, nothing on the card interests me. Plus Christmas is a week away.

Is there any match tonight that isn't predictable?

Sasha has to retain tonight.

you're predicting 2 draws on a B show?
Can't see them trying to build up Zayn and him not lasting 10 min vs Strowman, and Charlotte hasn't lost a PPV yet so a draw means that Charlotte remains unbeaten in PPVs and Sasha remains champion.

@Alex99
New Day have the record now, so it makes sense for them to drop the belts to Cesaro and Sheamus

They're not going to drop the titles at the first opportunity, and especially not at a minor PPV.

They're the longest reigning champs ever, and now that's the case, there's going to be an element of expectation during every defense. It would be incredibly anti-climactic if they dropped them almost immediately after breaking the record. There will be a proper feud with a proper build up, and they'll drop them in a manner that allows a follow up storyline focused on them breaking up.

I see your point, but with Nikki Bella she broke the woman record then she dropped the belt 6 days later (even if it was just to get rid off AJ lee from the record books), think they will do the same here. Let's find out who's right

"End of the line."

Less and less believable everytime they say it.

Sounds like quite a meh event..From strictly a results/booking perspective:

Jericho vs Rollins seems a spot just to make up numbers
Charlotte winning back the title just devalues the championship further, since it switches so god damn easily I hardly care about it.
Reigns vs Owens didn't end clean, which is fair enough, but they're overdo'ing the Jericho influence now. He's already cost Rollins and now costing Reigns a bit of a broken record (even if it was through a different motive).

This would have been a great opportunity to bring KO up to a new level, beating Reigns clean on his own. Showing 1) he doesn't need Jericho and 2) he is a heel that is actually that damn good. But instead they opt to protect Reigns further.

On the plus side however:

-Tag switch is great
- Zayn vs Strawman is being booked well.
