Nikki Bella being honest about the Bella feud and wanting to work with Seth Rollins. Recap from Cageside: (Wrestlign with Rosenberg)

 

 

 

On her feud with Brie not really progressing much over a number of weeks:

"Yeah, no, I agree. I think it should have been different ways but at the end of the day I don't write the show. I try to pitch but I don't write it, so."

On wanting to work with Seth Rollins:

"But I really want to work with Seth (Rollins) too. He and I are kind of the Prince and Princess, so I think it would be fun to kind of throw him in the mix. It does (get complicated with having Total Divas to account for) but I think I have a lot to go off on John (Cena) about, so."

 

 

I would actually like a pairing with Rollins although it messes with the internal "logic" of TD so I doubt the company goes that route

Man I don't even care. Like most people I got tired of Rocky as his recent return went on but that was Rock at his best. Great segment. He punked Rusev out but does it really matter? Rusev didn't drop a loss and got a rub by being seen as a guy worthy of being in the segment where Rock makes a surprise return. At worst I think it's lateral, and in doing so produced a great segment. I don't see that hurting Rusev's heat at all.

It didn't hurt but I hate how they keep sending this message that nothing now will ever be as good as the past. They have done a better job protecting Rusev than most people in recent memory, it didn't make sense for him to just stand there and listen to Rock talk for ten minutes. They could have had Lana slap Rock and Rusev blindsides him. Nobody looks dumb and you take a huge step forward in legitimizing Rusev.

Watching it I thought Rusev got a pretty big rub just from being in the ring on camera with Rock for that long. So he took a couple punches and bailed. Not like he was stretchered out and made to look impotent. This may very well be the biggest thing they can do to build him until he eventually goes down.

it's almost as if they made that show so boring to make Rock's return even better.

 

 

The Kathie Lee and Hoda segment was just unbearable and this is from someone who really doesn't mind celeb involvement in wrestling. Lunden seemed much more comfortable out there.

I'm just not of the mindset that getting a ten minute verbal dressdown from someone is a rub, no matter who it is. I understand that that's what WWE thinks, but I will never agree with it and they do this shit way too much now.

 

Brock Lesnar didn't back down from Hogan in 2002, and you can argue they're all at the same position on their respective card.

I know it was probably on the WWE app, but they really should have given Brie her intro and have Nikki do her promo when they were on air. Especially with the "hand behind back" stip. It came off way too rushed for something that's supposed to be important. (I know, I know, the divas, who cares)

 

And are Hornwoggle and "The Gator" supposed to be different "people"/characters in storyline? I don't think the announcers mentioned Hornswoggle at all during their match. Whatever that 90 seconds of mat wrestling was supposed to be.
