Either way Romans not a good guy his not a bad guy his a stupid guy for whatever his been taking that's made him fail the wellness test. Such a shame as I was just about to praise him for his match with Seth at MITB also I still hope this Shield triple threat still happens at Battleground although the match is more worthy of taking place at Summerslam.
I actually agree with JR, those fans chanting "You Can't Wrestle!" are an embarrassment! Those two times I've seen him Live, he can wrestle in my opinion. I honestly think he's been told by WWE to limit his move set. He had a bigger move set in NXT, if I remember correctly. When he's done with his 30 days suspension, the WWE should bring him back as a heel, write the suspension in to the storyline. Have him slag the fans off, saying how they never stood by him. This is WWE though so they'll probably still try and push him as a fan favourite. |

Calling it Clash of Champions instead of Night of casts some doubt on that for me.

Maybe they are planning on using them for the new specials. |

Read a few days ago WWE has just trademarked Clash Of Champions and other old WCW PPV names.
Maybe they are planning on using them for the new specials. |

Ooh, Kevin Owens just followed me on twitter because I supported his charity thing.
Any suggestions for things to say to him before the inevitable block comes?

Tell him to make his big matches less of a spotfest and more about ring psychology and selling
![]() A network special at the end of October and December and they don't use either the forever cool sounding Halloween Havoc or the classy Starrcade. But instead use Clash of the Champions. The mind boggles. |

Wouldn't be surprised if Roman did this on purpose - isn't marijuana something which would get a performer suspended?
Despite being being pushed as the top guy and earning the money that goes with it, he's looked increasingly fed up with his situation. There was even a report started 'heeling' on fans after Payback. The full policy is here- http://corporate.wwe.com/what-we-do/...testing-policy |

ROH have announced Roderick Strong is done with them after this weekend. (Presumably NXT bound)

Very happy to see Backlash and No Mercy possibly making a return. Bring back the old PPV names and have the gimmick PPV as sporadic specials.

I hope King of the Ring makes a full return to the schedule further down the line.
Maybe add a Queen Of The Ring tournament to it. |

Bored waiting for boyfriend to get home so had a look at a potential PPV schedule with 2 PPVs in most months.
Royal Rumble - Jan 22 No Way Out (Raw) - Feb 12 Judgement Day (SD) - Feb 26 Fast Lane - Mar 12 Wrestlemania - Apr 2 Backlash (Raw) - May 7 Hell In A Cell (SD) - May 21 Night/Clash Of Champions - Jun 11 (This will be the new PPV to feature MITB format) Payback (Raw) - Jun 25 Extreme Rules (SD) - Jul 16 Roadblock (Raw) - Jul 30 Summerslam - Aug 20 TLC (SD) - Sep 10 Unforgiven (Raw) - Sep 24 King Of The Ring - Oct 15 Survivor Series - Nov 19 Fully Loaded (SD) - Dec 3 Elimination Chamber (Raw) - Dec 17. With that schedule, Raw gets 6 exclusives with Smackdown getting 5. This could rotate year to year. Each brand gets 2 gimmick PPVs. Clash/Night Of Champions and King Of The Ring (Which would feature a QOTR tournament) would join the Big 4 as dual branded with Fastlane also dual heading into WM. 18 PPV a year, which is a lot but with the brand split it actually isn't too much different than currently if you look at each brand as a separate entity. Raw would have an average of 3.83 weeks between events with SD! getting 4.09 weeks. Sorry I'm talking crap but feel free to ignore. |

Maybe add a Queen Of The Ring tournament to it. I'd like them to add a 20 women Royal Rumble match to the Royal Rumble card to kick off the show if possible at next years show (plus to happen at least once, both Hell in a Cell match and Money in the Bank/multi ladder match with the right women wrestlers) |

I think this shows that with the brand split this format would work. Each PPV (sorry, Network Special) still has the same average time to build up to the show and with each superstar/feud only being on one show a week rather than two it should hopefuly mean WWE can do a better build up with less repetitiveness. Good to see some of the old classic PPV names too. The CWC starts taping today I believe. Not sure when it will actually air on the Network. |

Thanks for that Hol. It;s good to see how it would actually play out.

Good to see some of the old classic PPV names too. The CWC starts taping today I believe. Not sure when it will actually air on the Network. For 2018, the events would be switched so Judgement Day would move to second weekend in Feb, No Way Out would go to fourth weekend which means SD! Would get the sixth branded event of the year. I know it won't work out like this for clarity but wanted to show it can work thanks to the brand split. The wait between PPV is short but thanks to the brands the amount of build for each brand shouldn't be impaacted that much. |

I've had a change of heart. No Way Out becomes Battleground. TLC replaces Elimination Chamber in December. TLC and Extreme Rules becomes non gimmick PPV with names i cant yet think of.
Second May becomes a gimmick event which alternates between Hell In A Cell, Elimination Chamber and No Way Out (which features Cage matches) with December alternating between TLC and Extreme Rules. So we only get 2 gimmicks a year and they alternate so the gimmicks don't get overused. Said it before, ill say it again. Im bloody wasted here. |
