    I'm sorry Simon but you get a thumbs down for not mentioning probably one of the greatest insults that Drew had and the greatest reaction: where he looked at Chad Gable and said that he just felt sorry for him and all Chad could do was shrug his shoulders

    @peterterry7918 9 дней назад +8

    I am just going to throw this out there in case no one has said it on the internet. I think Roman will come back, mentioning mourning his father and the importance of honoring those who came before and calling out Solo for not doing so. Solo is defiant with his new crew. The Uso's may or may not be behind Roman. The same with the baby faces. Solo's crew won't care. Then, one of two things happens: 1) All the fathers of the new bloodline are ready to fight for Roman, and Solo needs to fight Roman alone.
    2) All the MOTHERS of the new bloodline come and line up behind Roman, and there is a stirring of uncertainty in Solo's crew. In one dramatic moment, the Mothers then remove a sandal and raise it in their hand. Roman then reminds them that if any of their mothers even accidentally trip and get hurt in the ring, they will have to answer to their father. At this, the bloodline breaks ranks, and Solo and Roman agree to fight for the Head of the Table position.

    • @GrymmJymm
      @GrymmJymm 9 дней назад

      I’ve realized when they do these “cool down/‘filler” styled episodes, it tends to indicate they’re about to turn heat up.
      So while a lackluster go home show, I have to imagine it’s because we are about to be neck deep in the Summerslam hype machine.

    The Stack-Up Superplex/Swanton spot in the PD/SP match was another great tribute to modern tag team wrestling on the same show as the tag title history package/DIY title win; that Superplex was Edge and Christian's move (in Toronto) and Angelo hit his Swanton right after, like Jeff Hardy. Shame Kit had to place himself *on-camera* though, as he didn't land in the right place, and Dawks doesn't have Tez' insane direction-shifting abilities...

  • @GrymmJymm

    One of my favorite modern tag teams is shayna and zoey, and im not even lying. I want them to have a long run with the title, but acting more as their real world selves. Seeing shayna on up up down down made her more of a “likeable bully”.
    The women’s tag division could use their own “APA”, these two’d be great for that. So Im already on “the zoey stark train”, glad to see Simon is, too.

    hello Simon & all ... 1. thanks for your great show Ups & Downs, always a welcoming positive vibe from you ... 2. i have a prediction for you: the new bloodline (actually 4 members) have to fight some Heyman's guys that want revenge ... new bloodline could get Zilla Fatu, Hikuleo and / or even The Rock ... the Heyman's guys could be Roman Reigns, Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, with help of Seth Rollins (Shield-Finisher on Paul), Cody Rhodes, Jimmy & Jey Uso, Kevin Owens, maybe The Rock ... but they will fail, so another group will "finish of" the new bloodline: the wyatt-6 ... i think they will go for all wrestlers with "family-story", like Chad Gable / Alpha Acadamy betray, Judgement Day, who ever betrayes their members in a stable and finally the new bloodline ... you have storytelling for years here ! ... keep on your good work & thanks !

    @kbreslin7289 9 дней назад +1

    So it's Andrade or Carmelo Hayes with the MITB briefcase.
    I think Punk will interfere with Drew and Wyatt Sicks will interfere with Chad. I guess either of them could interfere in a cash in.
    LA Knight and Jay Uso are standing tall but WWE don't want to give the briefcases to faces, because cashing in has to be heelish.
    I'd say it's likely to be one of Andrade or Hayes but with a very slight chance of Drew. Not sure either of the two deserve it yet.

    2. Pretty Deadly - they've been on smackdown alot longer than DIY
