Strummer

so Dave on the free show said that he thinks the company sees Ambrose as # 4 babyface which is why Rollins went over at the PPV. Also said that the company sees Rollins as the #1 heel in the company. I guess that's right with Brock part time, Orton turning and Stephanie and Hunter not really wrestlers

interesting that Stephanie and Hunter offered protection to Cena to help him get his title back from Brock when they were the ones who brought back Brock to take the title from him to begin with!

Ryback! And he's a babyface again!

Rusev is about to crush Hogan isn't he? eh maybe not

will there be a stip attached?

more trolling with teasing a Cena heel turn. It worked this time though

Orton was shootin' on RAW and I friggin loved it!! More of this Orton please. The one screaming and spitting like Beavis

Ambrose/Bray will no doubt get tons of focus on WWE TV but I doubt it gets any main event segments on RAW. Maybe Smackdown but that really doesn't mean much

I wonder if they are going to go with "he can't win the big one" route with Ambrose like with Bryan last year and with guys like Jericho, Eddy and Benoit in the past. People who get pushed like that never seem to get the real star treatment but if they are going in that direction history shows Ambrose should have a rather safe, drop up and down the card spot for awhile. If they are going the "crazy babyface who doesn't care if he wins or loses" then I have more doubt about his spot summed up perfectly. Frustrating as hell and can skewer your enjoyment of shows as a whole

holy shit Coffey I was just goiing to post that. It's gotten to a point where I think the only way WWE will completely get behind new stars is if Vince is ousted. The praise for Hunter is probably being overstated and he probably isn't the savior he's been made out to be but there is no doubt in my mind that he would be doing better than Vince now at least at this moment

so the main programs look to be Orton/Rollins and Ambrose/Bray. Have no idea what Cena does until the Brock match at the Rumble. He'll probably be inserted into the Rollins/Orton stuff to the delight of no one but Vince

hmmm, hottest babyface in the company screwed out of the main event in the cell and then transitioned into a feud with Bray Wyatt. Swore I've seen this tale before

Mizdow is off the charts great

apparently Ambrose is scheduled to feud with Bray in the upcoming months. This booking is getting awfully similar to last fall/winter. Looks like Rollins is going to go over tonight

Stephanie and Hunter have both been acting like cool heels lately. Which is a departure from how they were the first half of the year. Don't know what is happening. They will probably go back when/if Bryan returns. and yeah not to take away anything away from her performances but she outsmarted and got the advantage on Brie for the vast majority of the feud and then beat her at the PPV anyway. Poor Brie might be the worst booked babyface in wrestling history

specifically talking about this angle though. Two weeks ago she walked out on her partner in a tag match. Don't know if that is something the top face of the division should be doing. Emma has been portrayed as the happy go lucky babyface so running out on her comes across rather dickish. I guess it's better with Layla as she's a heel but it still is a weird angle

Jericho made a rather astute point while promoting the book. He said that he and Vince are very alike personality wise which is probably why they clashed so much over the years. Excellent point and something I've never thought of before

Anyone think the " AJ can't find a tag partner" angle will lead to Kaitlyn returning? Anything else makes her come across heelish or inept. I don't get how this company books its babyfaces

sescoops is almost always legit. Terrible news for Bryan

Didn't like Steph and Triple H acting like cool heels at the beginning. That is not what got them over in this role to begin with. That sounded like something Vince Russo would have scripted making fun of wrestling. Hopefully Orton v Cena is not the main event

That certainly sounded like a blowoff for the Bella feud with Cole saying Brie finally got revenge

Looks like Orton is turning face. Meltz has said that is the plan by the new year. He's going to get lost in the shuffle with Reigns and Bryan returning though

this was one weird ass show. JBL randomly leaving the announce booth and dancing his way to meet Teddy Long was a what in the flying fuck moment. it seemed to make Steph break character and laugh. Then Stephanie, Teddy and Johnny Ace dancing to Adam Rose's music and grinding into each other. yeah the backstage segment was great "Why are we this close?"

I saw the Rock/HHH/Stephanie segment from SD and Dave is really reaching saying it's setting up a WM match. It's played almost entirely for comedy. Wouldn't look into it at any other level

Smackdown is moving off Fridays in January. The delay was to wait until football was over
