I don't think they rebuild, it just crumbles away until its Finn & JD as a tag team and Liv to an extent.

Would be interesting to see who Finn replaces Priest with.
I don't think we get one, unless they go with Carlito who's not even really a full member yet(I think)

tbh we might get a full on split soon somewhere cause Finn and Liv could be scheming, which would put Rhea on the out also, who could easily change to a face since fans love her so much. JD clearly stays with Finn since he was who brought him in to the fold in the first place. I just don't know what to do with Dom, he can't be a face so idk if he can stivck with Rhea, cause of Finn and Liv are the ones pulling strings idk if Dom gets with Liv.

I could see it splintering if they wanted to go that route. What's it been? Two years since Edge introduced the group?

Seems they're deadset on turning Priest face. With as awesome as Rhea is, she's pretty much a Babyface in the eyes of the people. That leaves, JD, Finn and Dom. Don't know if tht's a credible enough heel stable to carry itself

My vision is that Liv & Finn are working together (JD by proxy) as they have a history of teaming up before. She's not interested in Dom at all and everything she's doing is to play him. When he's finally about to fold, she's gonna pull back and be like 'lol just kidding' or Rhea returns. She took Rheas title away, Priest kicked out of the group, has Finn & JD working with her and has caused a split between her and Dom. 'I'm gonna take everything from you' is now complete. Don't ask me what they do with Carlito, he's just the odd dude out.

Liv is 100% playing Dom. The entire point is she’s on her revenge tour and she’s trying to take him from Ripley.

So I actually think everything is being set up for Survivor Series with Finn/JD/Liv breaking off from Priest and Rhea and Dom siding with Rhea, Carlito becomes a full member of Finn's group and we end up getting Priest/Dom/Rhea vs. Finn/JD/Liv.

Now tell us why Seth/Gunther would be a good story since you mentioned it at the start.
They're both workhorses who carried their titles with pride during their long reigns, Seth vs Gunther would bring up the question of who the better workhorse is.

Yeah at this point Priest is obviously about to turn face. He’s already been saying for a while now that he doesn’t need judgment day to help him win matches. I’m sure after Summerslam he gets beat down and kicked out.

I can't exactly say that I find that idea any more interesting than Priest's story with TJD.

"Hey Seth, I'm Gunther. I'm the better wrestler."

"Hey Gunther, I'm Seth. I'm the better wrestler."

"Let's find out who's the better wrestler!"

And that's exactly what Priest is trying to prove but he keeps having people getting involved in his shit...

It actually includes Gunther, who comes off like a 3rd wheel in this story, being a superior wrestler is all Gunther cares about.
