Your SO OF COURSE preview of WWE BATTLEGROUND 2017 In this day and age you can’t just “predict” a PPV anymore, you have to account for the capricious whims of WWE’s septuagenarian, sleep-deprived egomaniac owner. You can’t just “preview” a PPV…you have to preview how things should go, in a reasonable and sane world, and then add “so of course…” and explain what Vince McMahon will probably do instead. Last time on SO OF COURSE… balls ! Meanwhile on Smackdown…. What’s happened to Smackdown? Raw suddenly has turned into a pretty good show ( notwithstanding certain storylines… ) while Smackdown has been spinning its wheels for the better part of two months. Actually, if we’re being honest, Raw is not that good either, but it’s main-event scene is straight fire right now and that makes all the difference. So what’s going on with Smackdown? If only I could remember what happened two months ago that might explain the blue show’s sudden nosedive… What could be the expl...

WWE RAW Results: July 17, 2017 Braun’s Revenge. The 1260th edition of WWE Monday Night RAW came to you, live, from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, TN. For weeks, RAW General Manager Kurt Angle has been plagued by “personal problems” and the GM has been obsessed with his secret somehow getting out.

Who was on the phone with Kurt Angle and what has had the GM so worried these past several weeks?...
