Re: WWE Backlash Discussion
Come on with the Universal title you even know that Braun is going to win for the simple reason that, what the hell would they do with the title if Morrison and Miz win.
Asuka is going to squash Jax i'd imagine cause the last thing you need is more heat from the locker room.
Low key think that the Tag Team championship may go back on the iiconics.
McIntyre retains (filler feud), no idea what they do with Edge and orton tbh and Hardy vs Sheamus is a bit of a nothing feud.
No Nakamura, AJ, Bryan, Seth etc on this show, its one of the weakest on paper cards i've seen from WWE in a long time, though honestly it could turn out decent if they give everyone time, it could be good.

Imagine AJ vs Bryan on this card when you're promoting Edge vs Orton as the greatest wrestling match ever.
They really made a filler ppv to get that over and imo there's a great chance it won't be the best match of the night.

the match between Crews and Andrade was shifted into the kickoff show.
It was Vince's decision after Heyman's exit.

Re: WWE Backlash Discussion
Just read that about edge yea that sucks. Relatively long recovery from that injury. Who knows if he has the motivation to actually rehab it and come back...
And yea Randy Orton has had plenty matches of the night. There isn't many better than motivated Orton and admiteddly we don't see that near as often as we'd like. But there's no doubt the dude can go

The match was really good, but the finish was terrible.

Who was the huge black guy in the ninja suit? I would say moose, but as far as I know he's still with Impact. Plus this guy looked taller than Moose

Re: WWE Backlash Discussion
The greatest finisher spam ever.
Maybe I'm an old man yelling at the clouds, but when I was growing up, finishers meant something, and kicking out of them was extremely rare.

Re: WWE Backlash Discussion
Boy oh boy, that Edge and Orton match was LONG. It felt like it would never end. All things considered, it was a solid match — but about 10-12 minutes too long. I was exhausted after that match.
The Viking Raider/Street Profit segment was also much too long (as well as too jokey and hokey). I don’t think it does either team any favors by having these comedy segments.
The Lashley/Drew match was pretty good — even thought Bobby might get the upset at one point.

I thought Orton v Edge was very good and even if it isn't deserving, I wouldn't be shocked to see it as a MOTY candidate.
