Probably wanted to sell Gargano taking that cheapshot from Saturday night. Black would have been awesome though especially if they let him do his entrance.

Eh yeah, makes sense. Takes the heat off the fued w/ him and Ciampa if he randomly shows up.
Black is the next KO for me. HUGE fan. Reminds me of CM Punk...but his debut is probably better for RAW/Smackdown/any time other than the Rumble when you hurry up and get to the ring.

Apparently a one-time deal. Based on the reaction and him looking in shape, I wouldnt be surprised if we see him again soon.

Wasn't he recently in some weird promotion in Mexico? I thought he got like super ripped. He looked like normal Rey tonight.

LMAO She probably heard it from Vince after that. I feel like she may turn full heel tomorrow night or sometime soon. She was acting really heelish towards the end tonight.

He was in Lucha Underground until 2016 according to wiki.

Probably realized roids aren't good for your body long term.

Happy for Shinsuke and Asuka, but man their promos are going to be painful to watch leading up to WM. Especially Asuka since she just made it to the main roster. Alexa gonna have to put some work into this.

Gonna be rough for both. Shinsuke can barely speak English at all...and all Asuka can say is "Nobody is ready for Asuka"
With Alexa/Asuka we know who is who. For Nakamura/Styles, who is the heel?

AJ will probably have to. I don't want them to go the "big bad foreign" heel route with Nakamura. It's overdone enough already.Originally posted by jrg:Originally posted by VaBeachNiner:Happy for Shinsuke and Asuka, but man their promos are going to be painful to watch leading up to WM.

I think they make AJ play the heel because he can get away with it, aka the anti-heel thing if need be. Making Naka heel would be weird at this point.

I'm happy for the new challengers but as we have seen with Bayley, not properly working on their promos could backfire. I think could Asuka could have benefited with a little more seasoning before slapping the womens title on her. But the WWE's need to push the womens revolution is rushing her too fast imo. Fans will get tired of Asuka quick.
