Here's the thing. I don't really watch WWE anymore. I haven't watched an episode of Smackdown in months. Raw keeps me more interested with guys like Braun and Brock around, but even so it's an irregular viewing. I don't make much of an effort to keep up with a lot of wrestlers, even ones I like, and that's why I am making this thread. I want to ask few questions about a few wrestlers. The answer to most of these will probably be "they're injured", but it's nice to be sure. Perhaps some discussion can come out of it.
AJ Styles What has he done recently? The last thing I know about is his feud with Kevin Owens over the US Title. Now Kevin Owens moved on to harassing the McMahon family. What's AJ doing?
The Revival They debuted on Raw some time ago, to beat down New Day I think, they may have been around for a couple of weeks, then they vanished. Haven't heard a blip from them besides Cody saying "Fuck The Revival" a lot on Being The Elite. What's up with that?
The Great Khali He made a surprise return to help Jinder win Punjabi Prison. Has he appeared since? Has he even been brought up on TV?
Curt Hawkins I know where Curt Hawkins is. He got mauled by Strowman recently. My question is: what's the point of him? Is he the modern Brooklyn Brawler and nothing more?
The Hype Bros Not heard much about them in a while. Injured?
Samoa Joe Where did he go after the Brock match?

AJ Styles is currently doing what John Cena with the US title, he's entered into a feud with Baron Corbin. Had a decent match with Dillinger a few weeks back though. The crux of it is that Baron is a shortcut artist and AJ isn't a fan of that.
Revival came back but only in backstage vignettes when they were top suspects for the guys attacking Enzo and Cass. Right now they're MIA as far as I know.
Not a word on Khali
Yes to everything about Hawkins, they're making a big deal out of his losing streak of plus 100 matches but if it's actually leading to anything is anyones guess.
Having a few matches on SD live, losing efforts and they're teasing a turn or a break-up, not clear who or which way it'll all go yet.
Joe i'm pretty sure is on the injured list. He was in the awesome Summerslam fatal 4 way though (A must watch if you haven't already)

A.J is in a feud with Baron Corbin for his U.S Title and are scheduled to have a match at the up and coming Smackdown ppv Hell in a Cell, Tye Dillinger is also kinda involved in the feud too and could possibly be added to the ppv match to make it a Triple threat match. I know A.J deserves better than this!!! 1 of the Revival members is injured. Fuck knows what's happening with Khali and I don't really care! Hype Brothers are either teasing a split or a heel turn, Personally I hope it is a split and that Zack Ryder turns heel. Samoa Joe is injured.

Khali returning was a one time thing. More shenanigans designed to get Jinder over.
Samoa Joe just had knee and nasal surgery

Cool that AJ is doing the open challenge thing. Gives him some purpose. Feuding with Corbin also makes sense. Joe i'm pretty sure is on the injured list. He was in the awesome Summerslam fatal 4 way though (A must watch if you haven't already) Yeah I caught that one. Great match.

I haven't been following closely, but if AJ is doing the open challenge... that almost seems like it should just be a thing. TV title reboot!

Is this Kurt Hawkins thing meant to go anywhere?

Khali literally just showed up so he could get a photo of himself posing with the WWE title to work the marks in India.

What are Becky Lynch and Charlotte up to these days? My knowledge of the Smackdown ladies is that either Naomi or Natalya is the champ, Carmella has MITB, and fuck everyone else. Is this Kurt Hawkins thing meant to go anywhere? Maybe there was a plan when he returned and they had all those vignettes, but I'm guessing the plan was abandoned and then he just became a jobber who cuts short promos. I actually have no idea what his gimmick is supposed to be. Walking informercial wrestler?
