It seems like a lot of people are reading Cena getting destroyed as the sign his time is ending as the ace of the company. It always seemed like Vince was going to ride him until the wheels fell off, and unless he's in way worse shape than he lets on I don't see them not having him back on top. They're more attached to him than Linus is to his blanket. Cena's such a company man he won't fall into a trap of being more of a pain in the ass than he's worth like a lot of past top guys were, so I don't see any motivation for WWE to move past him.

Also lol @ all the people worried about Brock's excess redness at SummerSlam. He's a fair skinned dude in the middle of summer. Speaking from (painful) experience that's what we tend to look like in August.

Maybe Cena can slide off of Lesnar during an F5 attempt due to Brock's excess sweat and roll him up for a pin. I kid, but I would actually kind of prefer that to Distraction Finish #698798797897 of 2014.

I'd wager in the 80s when the WWF started the Rock n' Wrestling stuff. While it was great for business it also kind of ended any pretense that it was anything but a show. That was also when I first recall Vince dropping a few "sports entertainment" bombs in his commentary (lest anyone think that's a new invention).

I can't think of any way to do the "vacate the title for going too far" angle that won't come off as lame or a cop-out. Why would the Authority strip Lesnar of the title when he's their hired mercenary?

If Bryan would have been in that match and it was booked the same way, it probably would have made the Rumble look like a love fest.

It would appear WWE set the bar ridiculously low, so the trifle matter of most of the country not being able to get it doesn't matter. Reading between the lines of WWE's announcement made it seem like Rogers gave them stupid amounts of money so the threshold for success being low makes sense.

He looked like that before WM too, Hair dye and the WWE makeup team do wonders.

I don't think anyone's surprised, just hoping against hope for something different.

Brock is great just sitting there giving zero fucks during Heyman's promo.

I wonder if it will come out that the Trips-as-Steph's-hypeman routine came out of them wanting to do their version of Dixie and Spud. They do seem to have a thing about wanting to rib TNA by doing what they do better.

I had the network on after Summerslam and they were doing a piece on RVD and the guy who airbrushes his tights for him. It was interesting to hear him mention it was "Mr. Baba, my boss in Japan" who suggested he get ring gear that made him stand out since he was just rocking a plain black singlet at he time.

Reigns was the most over when the Shield was together, but the crowd has got behind Dean and Seth more since they've all gone separately. Reigns in singles matches hasn't lit the world on fire, and the more that goes on and he still gets the Next Big Star push the crowd will start to react negatively. That seems to be what's happening to a small degree.

They need to have a kid doing the "stop, stop he's already dead" bit.

Brock mauling dudes with Heyman marking out at ringside is everything great about pro wrestling.

That's definitely Rick Rubin behind the announcers by the way.

When does WWE finally admit Reigns isn't the new top guy? He has the looks they like but he is probably the third most over ex Shield member right now.

Plus they're already coming up with angles to put themselves over Brie and Daniel's kids, who aren't even conceived yet.

That Mama's Boy dude was on the preshow and actually showed decent charisma.

Jesus Fuck, JBL trying to single handedly ruing the post match.

I wonder who's fapping more backstage, Hunter or Vince.

Probably not an issue considering the match at hand, but should someone who they made a point of not competing for over ten years be dominating someone who's an active competitor?

Alright, that works.

I'm kind of hoping Steph does the full out Triple H Wrestlemania entrance here with dudes from NXT as her boy toys.

I love how the only person to actually drink the Mountain Dew product placement is the guy who died of a heart attack.
