Guess who had a face turn at tonights Smackdown down tapings? You all know who it is. B1G

LOL I almost posted a spoiler and preface it with saying its not a spoiler anyones going to give a crap about...then I didn't even bother posting at all. And this turn was once again seemingly for no reason.

It's comical. He turns heel/face every other month.

I've never liked Big Show. He's a boring person who can't really do anything in the ring and flips heel/face every other week.


the best wrestling he's ever done is be Captain Insano

[Crankshaft]

You aren't old enough to remember Big Show at his best.

Big Show in WCW was pretty fun to watch. His WWE run has largely not been very good at all even from the start. In WCW though the guy could pull off some pretty impressive big man moves. Much lighter back then though.

Someone counted and this marks his 33rd turn. Why WWE wants a smiling happy-go-lucky giant, I'll never understand.

[DudeMan2766]

This just goes to Survivor Series from ('13?) I think there has been at least 3 changes since.





edit; err, did that happen at the last Survivor Series? That's how Cena was eliminated wasn't it? For some reason I thought that last one on the list was when he knocked out Cena to get his job back from Laurinaitis.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

I wonder what his longest reign has been

[DudeMan2766]

I wonder how long until his next emotional breakdown will be, as is typical of your babyface 'Shows.

[Froggy]

NXT time.... awwww yissssss

[Froggy]

NXT Rival results...

Spoiler:

Itami d. Breeze
Corbin d. Dempsey
Blake & Murphy d. Lucha Dragons
Balor d. Neville
Sasha Banks d. Charlotte, Bailey, & Becky Lynch NEW CHAMP (AMAZING match)
Owens d. Zayn due to ref's stoppage NEW CHAMP

I was just going to say this.

He cries so much.

Just got done watching. The whole show was very good. It's amazing how NxT is compared to Raw. 2 hours, and everything is tight and just works. No 20 minute long promos. You still get the backstory, but you get lots of actual wrestling too.

Anyhoo...

Yes the Women's 4 way was very very good. Great work by all involved. Women's wrestling done right.

Spoiler:

Glad to see Sasha win, thought Bayley was really impressive as well. Becky Lynch does what she does and the match was laid out perfectly.

Owens/Zayn was awesome. Put Owens over as a dominating force, but kept Zayn strong.

Spoiler:

I mean how often do you get a ref stoppage in a championship match that's legit that they actually award the challenger the belt. These guys have always had great chemistry going back to ROH so no surprise they put on a show. Can't get put over much stronger than Owens has since coming to NxT, overall a very good match, and kept Zayn strong as now they have a rematch set up easily with Zayn saying he never got pinned or quit. Kind of how the end of Austin/Hart did minus the blood and passing out.

Really the only match I didn't care for was Dempsey vs Corbin cause I just don't care about either guy, but it was passable for a big man match.

Everything else on the show was good(Itami vs Breeze, tag match) to very good Balor vs Neville.

[Froggy]

the tag match wasn't great

[skullman80]

I know, I called it good haha.

In real life, is he talking about where his teeth went?

[Cagsjr724]

[SolidSnake]
