WTF Swagger with Vickie, oh god this means we get more Vickie on TV

Why did Riley get the jobber entrance.

I want Riley to win.

 

[Troy]

Jack Swagger vs. Alex Riley in a rematch from last week.

JR mentions that Swagger is a two time former World champion. If you had only watched wrestling for a year you wouldn't believe that.

 

[Andrew]

Oh, then that's better for me with next week live Smackdown.

Nice spinebuster and Ziggler is out!

I want Riley to win.

That was my first thought as well. Riley gets the jobber entrance.

 

[Andrew]

Riley with a schoolboy thanks to Ziggler distraction!

 

[SoccerBoy]

Yeah just a once off. I can't remember what it on but something is on on Friday and that would impact the rating and airing of Smackdown so they are having it on Tuesday instead.

I think its something to do with labor day weekend here in the US and WWE thinks that it will affect the rating for SD.

 

[Andrew]

HHH on the phone backstage.

Looks like Swagger/Ziggler feud is on the cards with Ziggler possibly turning face. Ziggler says there's only one guy Vickie can be with.

 

[Troy]

Ziggler comes out and talks to Vickie. Vickie slips and Swagger exits the ring to confront Ziggler. Swagger gets back in the ring and Riley rolls him up.

So Riley gets a jobber entrance and then wins with a roll-up due to a distraction. Not a good week for Riley.

 

[TheZig]

Jack Swagger taking another loss, great what a way to treat a former world champion.

 

[SoccerBoy]

Riley picks up the win, after Swagger got distracted.

Anyone think we will get a Swagger vs Ziggler match?

That's the one. I did remember reading about Labor Day, nice to see it go live tbh.

 

[Troy]

That's it. You are right it is due to the public holiday and normally wrestling doesn't rate well on public holidays.

 

[John McHenry]

Riley goes from feuding with miz and cena and the like to this?

 

[Troy]

Riley picks up the win, after Swagger got distracted.

Anyone think we will get a Swagger vs Ziggler match?

I definitely think we will see a Swagger/Ziggler feud for the US title. Ziggler will go face and Swagger will stay with Vickie. Could definitely see this at NOC.

 

[Andrew]

Contagion sounds like a decent movie.
