meh Escobar/Gunther doesn't work right now. Imperium are heels and LDF are trying to establish their heel status.

Yeah, but it would have just been a one off as the obvious feud brewing for Gunther is him and Braun.

If they didn’t wanna go heel v heel then having Ricochet be the final face is dumb cuz Walters already dog walked him multiple times.. give that spot to Butch instead

Faction vs Faction would've been easy booking, could've even brought in a hot Euro chick to counter Zelina.

Ricochet loses, gets beat down, Braun makes the save bc he likes the flippy guys now seems like the obvious thing they're going for. I guess that's alright

Braun vs. Gunther at Royal Rumble. Braun hits a Shooting Star Press to win the championship...

Disappointed to see Ricochet go over Escobar. I feel like Santos and the rest of the team could use the rub and the short faction war with the Imperium before Gunther moves on to Braun.

I mean, Ricochet doesn't stand a chance of winning, why not just have Braun win the tournament in the first place?
