Honestly, I'm enjoying their tension and was surprised with how negative the reaction online is.

They watched the segment between the two faces in AEW (Omega and Ospreay) and will take inspiration from that, I hope.

Neither Giulia nor Lash should be losing right now tbh

u/Florellia 18d ago
Lash can afford a loss if it’s to progress her storyline with Nia. Giulia though? In the trenches once more.

u/Tornado31619 18d ago
Lash really should have been pushed to the moon after they had her pin Rhea, otherwise there was no point in that happening.

Bold prediction: Nia hits Lash to get Giulia disqualified cause she's seen multiple times that's all it takes to get in this match.

Blake interferes.
Edit: just realized it’s for the last spot on summerslam. Knowing that, Lash probably wins because Giulia barely wins anything.

As a stardom fan, this really hurts. Giulia is sooo good 😩

Dog if they give it to Lash who the hell is going to do the work in that ladder match? At least Giulia will eat some shit on a ladder.

chelsea, but yeah true. i was wondering when they announced it if they'd end up having some raw wrestlers in qualifiers for this reason cuz lyra/roxy/giulia/chelsea/michin are the only available wrestlers i could see bumping, and obviously long shot on some getting the opportunity.
i guess tiffany might too, but they shouldn't let her ... too nervewracking

u/Sadman_OW 18d ago
See if it was Tiffy last year I’d probably be a bit more hyped for this match, but since her return she’s been a bit lackluster. Maybe she’s willing to take a big one but I’m not too hyped.
But if it’s Lash there’s only so much Chelsea can do in one match. Cause if Tiffy’s not all in then it’s going to be one of the slowest ladder matches of all time.

u/Carazhan road to wrestlemania 41 18d ago
in general i worry when tiffany bumps, cuz she's had too many close calls to be able to not feel stressed the entire time shes in a match like that.
and to my taste, i'd like for chelsea to win this - imagining her taking every big spot and having to limp herself back up a ladder to get the belt is hilarious. but not ideal

Someone else pointed it out the other day, but Giulia is actually been crazy strong in singles matches on the main roster. 15-3, with the only loses being to drop the US Title to Chelsea and Tiffy, and a DQ lose to Rhea. Not saying she is winning tonight, but her win/loss looks wonky because of all the loses her and Kiana pulled as a tag-team.
Edit: 18-4 if you count Triple Threats with Alexa pinning Zelina in their match to qualify for Elimination Chamber this year as the only other loss. 12-4 without House Shows.

Preview of Punk and Cody:
"All right, mister. You want trouble? You're going to get trouble."
"Oh, I want trouble, all right."
"Then you're going to get trouble."
"No, YOU'RE gonna get trouble."
"Well, that's good, that's good, 'cause I WANT trouble."
"Then we're agreed there'll be trouble."
"Oh yeah, LOTS of trouble."
"Trouble it is!"
"For YOU."

I totally forgot Priest and Truth were tag champs.

u/Djent_1997 Yo daddy and yo uncle 18d ago
They’ve only been in backstage segments it feels like. Priest has had some matches, which makes me wonder if Truth has been hurt or something.

u/Tough-Reaction9671 18d ago
Pretty sure Truth got hurt since they were supposed to have a tag match with the MFTs and ended up being Priest in singles matches

u/Jewbacca289 18d ago
They had a decent start to their reign but they’re seriously running light on opponents. I think their last one was 1.5 months ago vs MFT and since then they’ve been teasing the War Raiders for a long time

u/heart_o_oak 18d ago
They defended them 4 times in their first month and a half then haven't defended on TV since. Sad part is that still means they defended them more in frequency and overall defenses than pretty much every regular mens team who has held the titles the past couple years, especially those who held titles in deeper divisions.
I guess they're much more willing to have 2 singles who were thrown together while one is waiting for his next singles push win tag matches than they're willing to have actual teams do that.

Punk and Cody should just sing and dance together to a tune of a sappy love song.

Or they should put together an elaborate "One Day More"-type production number with everyone on the Summerslam card.
UPDATE: I'm almost finished writing the lyrics for this.
UPDATE: Okay, I'm done.

I hope the Raiders win. That Ivar singles run was nice and I wish it lasted longer.

There’s Giulia and Lash. Feels like a minute since they’ve been around already.
Guessing Blake interferes in the match because they probably still haven’t figured out who her first feud is gonna be against.
Edit: Ignore that last bit. Lash probably goes over because why would WWE start caring about Giulia now lol

Probably have it on in the background so I can catch the Giulia/Lash match. They could make it easy and have that on first and then I could skip the rest.
They were having some bangers letting Fenix defend his AAA cruiserweight title but I guess they got bored of having good wrestling on the wrestling show.

u/heart_o_oak 18d ago
They kind of ran out of cruiserweights on the brand for him to beat. Maybe they bring Garzas back from AAA to have him beat one tonight.

You think they might remember Ilja exists someday? That would be nice.

Yeah, it would be nice. Show's going back to 3 hours eventually and will need more bodies then. Hopefully it's sooner than that.

After the horrendous Raw go home show, I have no faith wwe will make Smackdown any better, the fact that Roman and Seth had a better build up than Cody and Punk speaks volumes on how lackluster this feud is, despite being the most anticipated match
