Muur Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Interesting idea. Although... kayfabe. So the winner getting 100k for charity doesn't matter lol. Fair point for Asuka but remember it's for pinned ad submitted, so it's fine if she loses but isn't the one to take the fall. That's happened before, right?

I think she lost a battle royal once, but I dont thibk Asukas even lost a televised tag or multi-woman match other than that. Im probably wrong though.

Generations Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Either I'm missing an important detail here...or none of this makes any sense... They're going to gave a scripted wrestling match, wherein the winner gets $100k for a charity? But, it's pro wrestling...which is scripted. I guess it's a nice way of WWE contributing $100k to a charity, and making a spectacle out of it. But, it still feels like a strange avenue to do that. Meh...I guess it makes as much sense as anything else in WWE. I just hope they don't announce different charities for each team...because it would be pretty shitty for WWE to announce multiple charities, and then blatantly pick the winner.

Lmfao that would be awful. Little disabled kids cheering on wrestlers only to get their hearts broken. Then the wrestlers who lost would have to face them and tell them they failed and they won't be getting those special wheelchairs they needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
