I have heat with making the stage smaller. I always like when they do cool arenas. Especially when i played the video games.

Aren't most of them these days just the Raw/Smackdown set with graphics? Occasionally they'll do something good. But I feel like the only one that actually stands out anymore is Mania.

Also with AR next time they do a old school smackdown they should use an AR fist. They do a lot with it for entrances but not for adding to the stage during PPVs

I love the stages they did for Puerto Rico and London, where it was very minimalist and barely any sections that were unsold. Here's hoping they do that again.

Also I wouldn't expect a Roman title defense since this is gonna be War Games. Either he'd be in War Games or they got the 2 big War Games matches selling the show so no need for Roman.

I love that WWE has successfully convinced their fans its totally legit to not have your biggest draw and world champion on a big 4 ppv :WOW
I’m sure the event will draw either way as WWE have spent close to two decades training their fans to care about the brand itself, but I agree. Not having your champion ona big 4 is wild to me.

I get grumpy mjf spent two lesser AEW PPVs not defending his belt, but he was still there in a match and AEW doesn’t have the big 4 concept, anyways.

Even WCW kept Hogan off the PPVs they knew didn’t draw well regardless, but he’d work SuperBrawl, Bash, Havoc, etc.

According to WrestleVotes, WWE was initially considering just using talent from the Raw brand in the WarGames matchup. However, a source tells WrestleVotes that the thinks has changed and there’s a chance it will also include talent from SmackDown. Previous reports revealed that the Judgment Day, who has been working all three brands (including NXT) as of late, would be featured in the matchup. However, it has not been specified who Judgment Day will be facing but booking points to Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, and potentially Kevin Owens.​
Ever since they did that face off on SmackDown, it has to be Finn/Priest/Solo/Jimmy and 1 of Dom or JD vs. Cody/Jey/Knight/KO + 1

Wait, you’re telling me the brand split is already useless? :ortonout

Happy to hear wargames back, though.

It's still not officially confirmed, especially now with how they've started things out of the gate with Pearce & Aldis

At this point that’s the only thing that makes sense. Judgement Day is more of a focal than even the Bloodline right now.

So it’s the teams that Dale are accurate. I’d do with Dom over JD for the heat and he can be the guy to take the fall. And for the babyfaces, the +1 should obviously be Sami; a year after turning on his brother, he stands side by side with both Jey and KO

I just think it’s funny how much quicker they abandon it after each new split. It’s like they’d learn and just stop doing it.

Sami would make sense but part of me is thinking it could still be Cena (schedule depending) given his recent ties with Knight against Solo & Jimmy
