[Chris]

Wait, they haven't defended yet?

They took a month off to party in Nigeria or something

Elias's theme rules

First time hearing it

 

[Marty McFourth]

WWE and not having their titles defended, iconic duo

 

[Mox Girl]

yeah aj and omos havent really done much since mania

 

[Sky]

You think Ryker thinks Omos life matters?

No, but he's going to say he thinks it to his face

This the first time HIAC is happening in June? Usually an October PPV right

First I remember, they bumped MITB to July bc they want crowds for it allegedly

Ah that makes sense, I would want crowds for that too. MITB matches are HYPE

 

[Sky]

Hopefully this is a step towards abandoning HIAC as a PPV name and having HIAC as a feud ender any time of the year

No scramble to the top of Titan Towers this year

 

[Deezy]

Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black died for nothing

Yeah HIAC probably one of my least favourite. I like Royal Rumble and MITB as gimmick PPV's. MITB was good at WrestleMania too, tho.

 

[Mox Girl]

i think people have been predicting the demise of the HIAC PPV for years and it never happens lol

 

[Sky]

Kill HIAC and TLC as PPV concepts, kill the EC PPV name and being back No Way Out (but still have an EC for Number 1 Contender status for the brand that didn't win the Rumble at WM)
