Nakamura rumors, hogan won't be at mania, SDrops in ratings, Raw increases, Luke Speaks on no mania

[supanegro]

So it's safe to say the glorious one will retain at takeover?

Report in OP is taking if from the Observer but Meltzer didn't say if Nakamura would debut on RAW or Smackdown, he said it could be either show, wasn't sure yet

What's the problem?

From a fiscal POV. Raw is 3 hours and brings in a shyt tonne more advertising revenue.

If you want to look at it from a mark perspective, SD will have Roman a few weeks after mania anyway.

Like the previous poster said, Nakamura has to go to Smackdown. Raw already has Samoa Joe and they got Finn Balor back. What's the point of a brand split if all the top talent are going on Raw?

And on Smackdown, they're going to need a new fresh challenger for the WWE championship after WM33 and Nakumura is a perfect fit. Especially since John Cena is going to be leaving WWE for a while.

I'm SDSet so don't get me wrong but the brand split as it is only exists because USA felt WWE reneged on their deal to create original content on SD. So I can see why Vince still wants to stack RAW though I don't think it's right.

didn't they do like a HBK vs God match or some stupid shyt like that?

Edit:

I just looked it up

Vince and Shane McMahon vs HBK and God in a no holds barred match

I was talking about Terry Funk vs Luke Harper breh


ps: the buildup for that Vince/HBK w/God match had sooo much fukkery

Cant wait for Nakamura to debut, but they missing out on that epic mania entrance

He has an "epic" entrance every nxt take over(i feel like they over do it).... if he's still hot next year he'll get his mania entrance

This nikkas Luke Harper is dumb... if he wants a singles push he's gonna have to get a hair cut and put on a singlet.... he felt like a backup dancer this whole time because he looks like one... dirty bum ass hillbilly is not a main event gimmick

 

[ALonelyDad]

guess he won't be beating down New Day and taking over the show as rumored


Is this really true? Because even if they considered this shyt..

 

[Westcoastnative]

Seriously it's ridiculous, SD is rail thin on talent nowadays since they've ran through about a half year of storylines now. Meanwhile Raw just keeps on getting new talent on top of an already stacked roster that they don't know how to use. They won't even fukking callup Dillinger to add a fresh face to SD, while Raw gets Bayley, Joe, Finn, Goldberg, Joe, Aries.....

On the female side, Asuka also needs to be on Smackdown when she's called up. Raw already got the two biggest women on NXT, Sasha and Bailey.

Pretty sure they will use Harper in the AtGMBR.

takeover is NOT Wrestlemania

takeover is NOT Wrestlemania

I didn't say takeover was wrestlemania.. I said they give them special (wrestlemania style) entrances every takeover event..
