    Odds the Bayley shoulder injury is a worked shoot to lay ground work heat for the Sasha Banks turn?

    Or is this Sasha/Bayley feud a holy grail Cena heel turn thing that's never happening?
     
  4. Summer Slam would be the time to turn Sasha heel (could've said the same thing about Mania), but it's going to be hard to turn her when she's so over on and off TV.

    They'll eventually do it, but it'll be a while yet. Right now, she's in the role of Orton/Punk/Bryan as the second face who is for those seeking someone more cool instead of the kiddie face like Cena/Bayley.

    I saw one internet post on Cageside that said if the E really wanted to mindfuck with us, they'd have Bayley turn instead. I doubt that'll happen, though. She's too over with the kiddies as a face.

    They're advertising two triple threat matches for Raw, with the winners facing each other next week to face Bliss on the PPV.

    Sasha, Nia, Emma....and three more? Is it filled with jobbers like Fox or Dana? Do we get a surprise call up or return?

    Blue pants?

    Pretty good opening segment with Brock cleaning house of the Miztourage.

    This would make the second women's three-way Nia, Mickie and Dana Brooke. Seems too predictable even for WWE. Maybe a surprise return? Paige? Nikki Bella?

    Sasha winning was predictable. The second match is less so, but it would seem Nia wins and then -- hopefully -- goes on to face Bliss at SummerSlam. I'm probably dreaming, but I would love to see what Miss 5 Feet of Fury could do against Nia.

    If Bayleys injury isnt a work they should keep Nia as far the hell away from Bliss as they can.

    Shes green and borderline careless. She almost killed Charlotte twice. Now this. No mas.

    That visual of Braun chucking the desk chair at Roman ... WOW.

    Strowman throwing the office chair was tremendous.

    He and Reigns have such good chemistry together.

    EDIT: Nietsroob beat me by one second.
