Im worried about Big E as well. He didn't have much push as champion. Now what? He just needs to develop his character anr mic skills.

I don't think the IC belt was the best way for him honestly. Sure it has its prestige, but it's harder to move someone up from the mid-card to the main events if they're champion IMO. It's not impossible, many have done it i know, but still. Because how do you move up the guy that lost into something bigger yanno? But w/e. I'm thinking he's gonna linger around the mid-card level for a while or maybe be on a TAG TEAM PLAYA.

Don't see much happening for him in the future unless the crowd picks up to him a lot more.

I think Sandow will probably get a push around Payback then. Usually when a "tantrum" like that is thrown it gives you the impression that something big is about to happen for that superstar in particular.


With Bryan being out for a bit (said he'd return by MITB guaranteed and Payback is a possibility.) I think the belt could be dropped @ Payback. I don't think the feuds set up for this PPV are going to be anything special, but i think it's going to be the ppv that builds some newer stars for the future to come.

Poor guy, he'll probably never return. But then again, when you're a huge commodity like he was, and you get a little frustrated and decide to take off for a while you're usually just in a waiting line, cuz you're bound to come back once realizing money's flushing and there's still plenty that can be made. He's still got a few years left in him.

They really are considering it. I was not expecting that though, I was more expecting a shield member. Or an NXT Rookie making his way up, so they can make a present day Randy Orton out of him.

I die a little inside every time that fruit cake adam rose shows up with his homo posse..

*man tear*

Anyways, NXT Takeover was dope. Those were some pretty cool matches, Sami Zayn can make anyone look great in the ring, his match with Tyler Breeze who is also awesome was probably the highlight of the night. The way they hyped the Tyson Kidd and Adrian Nevilles match was insane too, they made it seem like Tyson's career would be over if he lost (which he did.) I was actually kind of rooting for Tyson I wanted him to win. I don't dislike Neville but I really don't care for him. Charlotte and Natalya brought the house down also, but Natalya also came up short (bad night for the hart family, huh?)

I don't see him having any kind of future, as mean and unfair of me as it is to say, he should listen to his fiance.

"McMahon 3:16 Says I've just pissed my dress"

 

Whoa, Seth Rollins.

I love the scene where John throws the steel steps to Brey Wyatt's face.

He did it again on raw just with less intensity. Crowd picked up to it, it'll probably become a thing now that it seems as though he's inserted himself into a potential title picture aaaagggaaaiiiiinnnn.

unless there was another reason behind that annoying long program with steph

I honestly wasn't expecting Seth Rollins to be the one that disbans The Shield. I thought Dean Ambrose was the one.

now to see who of the 3 gets buried by the shadows of the others.

^ Ambrose unfortunately. Reigns was a given for main event status after the fact, fans placed him there. It was between Rollins and Ambrose and Rollins was handed the ball and told to run, so he got the opportunity. Ambrose will slowly fade into mid-card events unless he can put himself over more.

heres what ive processed from RAW:

- HHH is grooming rollins to be the next HBK

he has the mic skills and high flying ability...and with the added heat from backstabbing his brothers, like when Michaels turned on Janetty, should skyrocket him into stardom. dont be suprised if he's not only in the MITB match...but wins the briefcase. did i mention that Daniel Bryan has arguably the best ring chemistry between Rollins...no coinkydink there

- Reigns aint ready for the keys yet

Reigns is gonna be a star no doubt, but he needs more work; especially on the mic. Ambrose and Rollins a re miles ahead when it comes to mic work and ring ability. Ambrose can be Reigns mic piece until that is fufilled and once the training wheels are off...its all systems go for the Rock's baby cousin

- Ambrose will Ambrose

Ambrose IMO is this generations Rowdy Roddy Piper in the sense of his mic work is phenominally good (Just YT a random Jon Moxley promo from his indy days and youll see why). He has the potential to be a even better anti hero than CM Punk ever was, and will get over being himself turned up full volume.

Overall i like the move that Trips made for Rollins heel turn. this makes sure that Rollins doesnt fall by the wayside and get lost in the sauce as it was looking despite stealing the show over and over again (like that other wrestler from the previous era with long hair and high-flying moves...see where im getting at?)

I agree with you for the most part. I'm surprised they perceived it so well, I honestly thought they'd have Ambrose do the turn and Reigns get the push almost instantly. I'm hoping Ambrose doesn't get lost in the shadows and has the opportunity to use his skills to their full effect. It's all about opportunity, you could be amazing at what you do but never get TV time to prove yourself.

I agree with the HBK thing. And yeah, Roman might not be as witty as the other 2 but that's kinda his character. Short on words but explosive in the ring. He's not a wrestler. He's a brawler/powerhouse. Dean is a brawler 2, but he's so inavative that he almost seems technical. And of course Seth might have the best mat skills of all 3. I think with Romans move set, charisma, good looks(no homo), and raw intensity he could shine...on his own.

Im kinda sad that Ambrose took back seat. His mic skills give me goose bumps. And he works hard in the ring. But I gotta admit im glad Seth gets a chance. He deserves it. If they gave it to Roman...it might have meant annihilation for the other 2. But if Dean got it it would have secured him a spot as a main eventer for a while longer. Seth and Roman were already a solid tag team. Maybe they could gave even been solid singles competitors.

Tbo, I'm still trying to get over it. Lol! Next thing you know Super Cena and Dynamic Daniel are gonna either become a tag team...or God forbid...turn heel! :orton:

Cena will never turn heel.

Cena turning heel is like CM Punk coming back. It's not going to happen.

Tbo I'd love to see both...

Who wouldn't? lol

This is so embarrassing.  TNA draws 300 fans in a baseball stadium.

Dang, that's just upsetting. Don't they draw more on weekly shows?

IT'S UNDER 9000! :orton:
