Yeah that's true. I believe he will be gone at some point but whether that is this season or if they sign him long-term and then trade him, like Kane... I don't know. We'll see.

Damn, that's rough. It's an interesting time for him to leave, with how he was just starting a heel run.... I'm curious how they handle his eventual return. He could come back as a star babyface but I don't know if that's what they want for him.

Yes. Ideally Roslovic can be the guy. He's not there yet but maybe within the next 2 or 3 years like you say. I think asking Little to take a 2 or 3 year contract is a bit of wishful thinking. He'll be wanting 5 years x 6 million. Not sure we can swing that, though.

ROOOOOOODE!!!

I would keep him around. What happens if Scheifele or Little get injured.... who is our centre in the top six? Copp? Perreault? Lowry? Or could Petan be the best option of all? Let's also not forget that Little is a pending UFA after this season. If he does not re-sign we will need someone to take his place and it would be nice if Petan could prove the doubters wrong and be that guy.

Strictly in terms of in ring action, there were 3 matches on Summerslam better than any match on takeover - both tag title matches and the fatal four way.

Depending on cap space I could see interest from Ottawa, Montreal, or even Hamilton if they can get him on a multi-year deal.

Well I'm not going to sit here and defend Roman Reigns. He is what he is. But NXT is just so unbelievably bland. There is nothing to hook you in. Slap the Summerslam label on NXT takeover and present that to the fans and everyone would be cancelling their network subscription. It's just wrestling for the sake of wrestling. Why should anyone care? That's the big piece that's missing. Take a guy like No Way Jose and bring him up to the main roster and see how long that stupid gimmick will carry him. It's just silly. People like NXT because the wrestlers are fresh. Not because they are any better than the main roster. But because they are new. That's really all there is, and it doesn't do anything for me.

Wait, does Aleister Black even have 3? There's the kick.... the uhh... other kick.... the "sit down in the middle of the ring and look brooding"....

He has made some key field goals, he has missed some. So to say he is making the key ones isn't really accurate. He is making some of the key ones.

I was almost expecting Taker to appear during the fatal 4 way at Summerslam.

Smackdown needs another top guy. That would definitely be the place for Bobby Roode. In fact I would consider putting him right into the US title picture.

JEROME MESSAM

Stanley Bryant definitely deserves consideration for MOL for the Bombers. He is so consistent.

I love Medlock and wouldn't trade him for any other kicker in the league. But if you're going to give MOP to a kicker... he's gotta be better than last in the league in field goal percentage.

Yeah based on how accurate everything else was, I expect that the remaining spoilers will also be accurate.

I'm still not totally sold. What was even the point of that match? Cass beats the piss out of Enzo yet again? Makes no sense. And he got hurt falling outside the ring and is limping, talks to the ref, but then appears fine. He did a move on Enzo, I think it was a sidewalk slam, with no noticeable limp at all. Then he is setting up for the elbow and his knee "collapsed" in such a strange way. I'd be really curious to hear what the injury is.

Damn I wish I hadn't read that lol

That was so weird. It looked like it was a bad sell at first but then he was swearing and punching stuff and it seemed that he actually was hurt. But when he actually got hurt it totally looked like a work.

That would imply that they don't have an American backup defensive back on the roster. I think that would be very risky.

...a year?

Yeah that would be the choice. He's not at the NHL level anymore.... if he ever was. The money is better in the KHL than the AHL so easy choice for a lot of those fringe guys that have the opportunity to go over there to play.

What? Bobby Roode is on Smackdown? Not sure what you meant by that. And yeah it is a developmental promotion. But I'm not sitting there watching it saying "Oh yeah this is **** but I'm ok with that because it is developmental." No, as a fan that doesn't come into it at all for me. Either it's entertaining or it isn't, I couldn't give two shits about it being developmental. And NXT is not entertaining, it's sloppy and boring.

NXT is so overrated that it's painful to hear the way people talk about it. Just a big collection of d-list wrestlers and washed-up personalities completely devoid of any attempt at a storyline. Never seen another wrestling show so lame and boring in my life. Once Bobby Roode gets called up they might as well just cancel the show because there won't be anyone left worth watching. Half these guys at this point just look like your average joe from down the street. Zero star power.

The crowd loves Braun Strowman. And it's easy to see why. But I think we are not done with Joe vs Lesnar yet.
