For who Uncle Howdy should have his first feud with, I’d say give it to Braun. From the looks of it, he isn’t connected to the Wyatt six like I thought he was and with him working with Bray before on storylines similar to this before proves it could work. Maybe during Brauns time away, he encountered Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt six but rejected their offer or was with them at one point but left and they are trying to either re-recruit him or exact revenge.
If Jey Uso were to win I feel like Drew McIntrye winning the title back (@ Clash at the Castle) from Jey instead of Damien would be 1000% more interesting considering the story he has with Jey Also your mind will change about the Lyon crowd when you watch Smackdown tonight, they might be better than the Puerto Rico crowd already
They should make the draft more realistic. GMs should sign superstars to 1, 2, or 3 years and after that is up, then they go into the draft. They draft should only draft free agents or NXT superstars. This makes it even cooler if a world champion becomes a free agent and gets drafted to a new brand.
I'll be honest, Santi. You're argument for the 5 matches swayed me a bit, but I still feel like an IC Title match or something of the sort could've fit well on the card. Also, I didn't even catch the irony of the gif I used. Good catch. I officially made it into a Hot Takes video.
Jey definitely should. Priest as champ just ain't it. He's a good hand for sure. But he just doesn't give main event-level vibes. If JDM wasn't in the group, DP would likely still be the least popular member of the faction. Besides, Jey winning sets up more logical matches for the next few months. Jey vs Drew and Jey vs Gunther are likely the biggest matches we can get for the WHC during the summer.
no, jey is not main event material, so no. Damien is way better than him. Jey is just "hey hey hey uce, yeeet yeeet UCE, come one hands in the air UCE!". The guy is brainless
@@mihaimercenarul7467 Okay, but Jey is still a far bigger star than Priest is (this is an objective fact). I don't even dislike DP, he's a tremendous worker. But his connection with the crowd is mild at best. Jey is a star and stars are the ones that should hold the top titles. Giving guys who aren't connecting with the live audience top title runs is how and why the original WHC lost so much of its luster. If the point is to try and build the new WHC's prestige up, then going from Seth -> Drew -> Priest this early into the title's lineage already feels like a misstep in terms of star power.
Ye I've seen clips they was straight up singing Randy's theme word for word WHICH NEVER HAPPENS I'm waiting for the pop if john cena appears at backlash
He does sometimes Tbh I only got X(twitter) for his hot takes videos(unfortunately I haven’t been selected yet😂) but now I use x for many different things wrestling
I think that uncle howdy should do what the fiend did by going after the people he had past feuds with , and maybe through Miz in there because they have some history.
Jey Uso definitely has a shot on Saturday. The Judgment Day is falling fast. I don't think that most people are accepting Damien Priest as the WHC. And losing the title would just add to the drama. Plus, with Cody Rhodes going to smackdown and Seth Rollins on the shelf, Jey Uso is the top babyface on RAW right now. The only thing that's stopped him from winning his last two championship matches is Jimmy, and Solo and Tonga just took him out. I'm not making any guarantees, but don't be too surprised if Uso wins.
Santi I think you’re a respected person, and giving Alberto any more light than he deserves is just gross. After what he did, I thought that we as wrestling fans were doing our best to keep people like him out of our sport.
@jOrDaN._. No offense but Roman, Cody, and Owens aren't really top tier in ring wise. They're good,with roman being the worse of the 3, but not who I'd put as the best. If we go strictly modern then Cody has a say but I'd still say owens and roman both don't have a say.
They need to start doing the WWE draft like an expansion draft. Allow each brand to protect 10-15 superstars and all other stars are up for movement. It gives you a plot device so that you don’t have to just redraft a bunch of people to the same brand because you have feuds set up for them. My personal opinion though
I am a fan of both Damien and Jey but I think that it’s not Jeys time yet, I think that Drew or Fin Balor will make a much better story to be the ones that take the tittle from Damien
Its great just to have 5 to 7 matches. The only thing that really should change is that they should do seperate Raw and Smack Down PPVs again. One month raw, next month smack down. Backlash already is a smack down ppv plus one raw match
Disagree some storylines need a certain ending at a certain time I get it bc they were kinda good in 2016 but it doesn’t fit this time period and I feel like one show would be better than the other depending on the month and there’s not a show every month now so it’s kinda weird
🔥🔥🔥Okay, hear me out. At the Backlash event, Jey will win the title due to Judgment Day faults, similar to the last time team jey won over Judgment Day. After this, Finn Balor and Damien Priest will start fighting each other which will lead to the next event. At this event, it will be Demon Finn versus Damien Priest, and Demon Finn will win the match. While Finn is celebrating his victory, Uncle Howdy will strike, making Demon Finn the first target.
With Drew Gulak's firing(its sad someone lost their job, even if he did some inappropriate stuff allegedly), NQCC needs a leader and Shinsuke could be the perfect leader
I can see Uncle Howdy and the Wyatt 6 feud with either Judgement Day or The Final Testament. If the Wyatt 6 shows up just before Judgement Day does fall apart, they can use this downfall to their advantage. If they do decide to do this, maybe this is how we will finally get Demon Finn Balor, since they have been teasing it the last couple of weeks.
Only problem being if it’s demon Finn Balor coming back he needs that win, and if he wins then the Wyatt 6 loses all its momentum, but if demon balor loses there’s no momentum for him either, but final testament I feel would work perfectly
Loool it was funny seeing Joe Hendry’s theme get over, because before it i was randomly walking around singing “ I believe in Joe Hendry”. This stuff kets me know i do not gave bad taste 😂
For the 2025 WWE Draft - Shawn Michael should draft for NXT. The WWE likes how the NFL draft looks/shows. So why can’t the writers build stories on an actual draft. The Raw, Smackdown and NXT (HBK) commissioners can draft accordingly to what the writers have alright written for the future. Interesting?! CHANGE IT UP! It’s what the fans like to see!
I reccomend listening to AJ's theme on spotify it just got released, I gotta say. It sucked at Mania, but I like it now that I can hear what they actually sing.
The Wyatt 6 first feud should be with Chad Gable & his new faction coming soon. Chad Gable could give INCREDIBLE character work with a storyline like that!
"I'm not a chef but i can tell when food tastes bad". That's the same thing for the fans who pointed out Sheamus for gaining weight. You don't need to be a top athlete weighting lifts to say that another person is fat. People do things and the others criticize. That's how life works
Karrion Kross and Scarlett could have been separated from the AOP & Paul ellering since both talents originally have 1 manager. The only potential problem from that point forward would be booking.
i think the bloodline is the perfect target for the new wyatt family. have them murder solo and make solo go threw a character arch where he becomes even more badass when he comes back and then starts murdering everything and everyone
Usually Backlash is a pretty safe PLE since it’s literally a month after Mania so there’s a super low chance for new champs to lose their titles. And funnily enough they’re all new champs rn so I feel they’ll all retain and there’ll be no new champs crowned tomorrow
santi you seem to only worry about da intros of songs aj song is a banger if you dont worry about just da intro n the new catch republic theme they're both hard but the intro does ruin it i agree abt that
if AJ’s theme didn’t have the “you don’t want none” everyone would have a very different opinion on it like you said. if you ignore it that shit is fire. same with new catch republic. that guitar is fire
I definitely agree with Santi about AJ Styles’ theme. It’s growing on me a little bit, maybe im just liking Stevie Stone a little bit after hearing it, but even though it is growing on me, the tagline at the beginning takes it down just a little bit
I wouldn’t say that I want a huge card, but I do think that another match wouldve been nice. After 3 hours, I felt like I could’ve seen one more, maybe a Sami defense. 3 1/2 hrs is my perfect length, give them another 20 minute match
This backslash could measure up to last year's backlash if triple h books a big surprise or two. That Puerto Rico backlash Carlito return was just amazing.
Santi don’t disrespect Alberto del rio. In 2013 he was imo the best Latin heel. Especially now with the influx of viewers many of us come from this era and he’s return would be amazing as it’ll hit those nostalgia points as we already have punk and if John returns we’ll be cooking. One thing is we can finally see Rey go heel and bring him back. Or a royal rumble return.
I'm sort of into this, if only because Jey vs. Drew for the title would be absolute fire. He still has a grudge to sort out with Priest, though, so I can go either way.
Disagree on the 5 match cards. Fastlane was by far the worst PPV last year just because of how much it felt like filler. Payback was a close second. And the only other 5 match PPVs recently have been Elimination Chamber, Royal Rumble, and Survivor Series which at least have special stipulation matches that take up time. Also Backlash last year was 7 matches.
I personally think that the wyatt family and uncle howdy will inturupt the bloodline vs KO and randy match, i mean randy did do some crazy stuff during the rivalry between bray and randy.....
