3 for 3 so far. Great 1st hour of wrestling.

Man if Rollins was chocking up after Sasha/Bailey what do you expect from marks like us? The doc was fucking great.

New Day are gonna get destroyed in the next coming weeks but fuck it. New guys standing tall at the end of the show building a tag team program is refreshing.

Imagine how interested he would be in lucha if he had the DVDVR 80s set. Hit him up on twitter. Nothing to lose to be honest, he'll probably jump at the opportunity if he finds out that kind of content is actually available.

There's some really interesting stuff in that interview

https://streamable.com/kaik?t=2.2 Lesnar: "He wants an F5." Show: "Aw, what an old dick!" Lesnar: "I know..."

Before he got the concussion they were building to a Sheamus and/or Ziggler program for Bryan after Barrett. He'd probably tried to get a program with Cesaro too but who knows if he had kept the belt by that point or WWE would've actually booked that feud. The most interesting "what if" of his IC reign to me is him being able to convince WWE to book the Nakamura IC champ vs IC champ match he wanted for their Japan Tour (that ended up having a Network Special). They did it with Christian before they did it with Bryan.

Reigns vs Bray confirmed to be a HIAC cell. If it's a very good-great match Roman is pretty clearly the best PPV performer this year, no?

Also, I'm I the only one kinda surprised Rollins hasn't had much backlash for this ratings and "meh" house show numbers? I get he's Hunter's guy but it's still weird seeing a guy with his backround not having enemies in the back that are feeding Keller, Johnson and Meltzer stories about the company having doubts about him as their top guy like they did with Punk and Bryan. On the other hand, I'm glad we are past that kinda discussion and it's almost consensus that no matter who's on top, if the product is as stale as it has been it's almost impossible to get good results. But still, kinda weird there's no noise about it. Bring back Jeff Hardy and clear Daniel Bryan? No clue if that would work at all ratings wise - and putting aside the fact that both those things are highly unlikely to happen - but I'm not sure who they can rely on to give the roster and their product a refreshing boost.

Ratings have been shitty for a while now and Vince hasn't panicked at all. It's kinda weird to be honest.

Read on twitter Go Shiozaki quit All Japan. Is it true? Do we know his reasons or where is he heading to?

It's their fault they don't have another dude they can rely on to draw with the IC belt though. Why not give it to Ibushi who has proven to be a draw for them and let him have long run with it? Hell there's a nice story between him and Nakamura as passing of the torch type of thing that could be done in the Dome. Instead they put him with the NEVER title, make him job and we get ANOTHER Goto/Nakamura match. New Japan booking is as conservative and unimaginative as WWE's and we shit on WWE all the time because of it. And it's frustrating because they have an awesome roster that they keep wasting in the same feuds over and over again.

Ru Day might be one of greatest factions in decades with just 1 match, an unrelated youtube channel and a couple of twitter interactions.

At this point I think Brock is winning it. Not anymore I hope.

It's gonna be hilarious when Kane interferes in Taker vs Brock at HIAC too

HAHAHAHA

Someone has to tell Seth to stop doing that fucking superplex/falcon arrow spot. Fucking hate that shit.

YES! No Brock vs Taker at Mania And that Go To Hell "Tour" looks fun as hell.

Ah, I see. Had no idea about Jimmy Uso. I just remember reading Orton got taken out by the Wyatts a couple of RAWs ago and thought he was going to be the third man.

Isn't Orton kind of a lock to be the mystery partner?

Table for 3 with New Day was really fun.

Bryan's book directly contradicts this, he said Shawn came to training all the time. You mean his WWE book? Of course he is going to say that now after that becoming part of the story in 2013. But seek out his interviews before then and that directly contradicts his book. Not really, if IIRC Bryan used to say that most of the in ring stuff were taught by Ruddy Boy Gonzalez, something that he also mentions in his book. Shawn oversaw stuff and got them bookings, he very rarely stepped in the ring (like the story were he tried teaching them how to take a backdrop and his mom scolding him for getting in the ring). As time has gone by, Bryan has talked more about how important Shawn was in pushing him and Kendrick and getting them gigs, but he's always been clear about his "real" teacher being Regal.

How long can she be out if she is just out there as a valet though?

I saw a graphic from WWE.com that gad Baron fuckinc Corbin as the mystery partner. No clue if it was just photoshopped though. I hope so at least because were Isaw said they took the graphic down quick.

Rowan had a November return date last I read. Unless he had a Cena-like recovery I don't think it's him, though it makes the most sense I guess.
