I like Rollins as champ. He has beef with every important face in the company and every title match will feel like he can lose it. I also liked the booking because Reigns looked incredible and but didn't get the "chosen one" ending. I think crowds will stop resenting him and his coronation will feel special as it should.

Told y'all him losing earlier was cashing in 101. That's how they always book the "opportunistic" cash-in.

Can Rusev retire Taker next year, please?

That segment went so long they cut the promo video for Bray/Taker.

Oh shit.

Holy crap. This is 'Murica video is hilarious.

I almost don't wanna watch the finish of this match.

There's so much time left that it's almost a given they are running a big angle after the main event.

Damn, man. No nostalgia fun? Not even unintentional comedy? I had a blast watching it

Ok, that handshake was dumb as hell

That was WAAAAAY better than I thought it would be. As fun as the could've booked it. Don't really care for Sting so I'm not mad at the wrong man winning. Great show so far.

GOAT RKO. Seth losing. That's "cashing in later 101", no?

So according to Meltzer on his podcast, WWE is "full court pressing" to get Jim Ross back. He couldn't finish the story because his brother came to his house and Dave started talking to him and never went back to the JR subject (which was pretty funny). But he explained Ross wouldn't have been caught dead going to WWE shows and now he's front row at NXT and going to the HOF.

What I don't get about this reports is how they don't cover the obvious questions. Like in this case, if they are so concerned about Bryan's health then why the hell would they put him in a Ladder match with 6 other people and why would they book him to work as much as they have in the past 2 months? They couldn't ask their source about that? I just can't believe this story because nothing they've done with him says they are concerned about him getting injured.

He destroyed Wyatt's rocking chair with a lighting, I'd be surprised if he didn't return as the Deadman. Well, if people still believe Vince hasn't lost it this Sunday will be a major test to prove that point right or wrong.

Bryan's interview with Jericho in his latest podcast was outstanding. Great insight on his injury and his thoughts on his position in the company. He clearly views wrestling way different that most of his fans.

Schneider would've laughed for like an hour straight with the claims Sitterson was making. With all the heat dude is having he has to have a one-on-one with Will or Dylan, right? That show sells itself.

Either that or we are gonna get some loongs performances from the artists that will be there. Kid Rock all over again.

The "do you know it's scripted?" question kinda pissed me off. Specially the second time he made that same question. Will didn't care though so that made it a fun listen, good back and forth from two very different mindsets. I kinda wished Dylan was on that panel though, I don't think he would've been able to hold it together

Wasn't it mostly print and radio? I don't remember him doing the big talk show circuit at all. Espn? Yes, but they weren't near ESPN studios in NOLA. He did appear in the NFLNetwork. To me it's a big difference being on Fallon, Kimmel and Conan than doing radio row or local press. Bryan got some press but clearly not at the level of the guys they see as huge stars. Again maybe it's because of the difference in the mania markets but ESPN could do remote interviews also. And as Meltz mentioned the company never promoted his appearances with the Giants or Seahawks after their championships Agreed on WWE never promoting his mainstream exposure being a sign they don't see him as THE guy. But if it were as easy to get an ESPN interview they would've done it last year with other talent, they didn't. I don't see what happened at last year's Mania as a sign of their stance of Bryan at all. It's pretty clear this ESPN deal is because of the market they are in or because they reached some sort of agreement. They didn't get this attention for Summerslam in past years either.

After watching Roman Reigns on Conan O'Brien it's clear as day how WWE has completely fucked him over in terms of his character. Dude was great, felt comfortable, was funny and showed charisma.

3 minutes in and I'm laughing at that clusterfuck of an intro. That was awesome

Mark Henry is the fucking best
