WWE TV January 11 to 17

Del Rio won back the US title from Kalisto at the SD tapings tonight. This company is maddening

 

[Coffey]

 

I read that as well. This company is exceptionally frustrating. Is the idea we're supposed to have heel heat for Del Rio because he won it back? Because all it does for me is think the people making decision in WWE are fucking inept at their jobs.

 

[goodhelmet]

Meltzer sais on his radio show that unless they change their minds, Brock - Roman is not the current plan.

Aw, bullshit.

Roman Reigns Vs. Triple H?

[joeg]

I honestly think Meltzer makes a lot of stuff up. Seriously. He has a column and a podcast to fill, so he just guesses.

[Loss]

He didn't report it as fact. He said he didn't expect it.

[WingedEagle]

Meltzer sais on his radio show that unless they change their minds, Brock - Roman is not the current plan.

 

Did he say what current plans are for either of them? I'd be on board with Roman-HHH if its a repeat of 30 where it leads to a title match later in the night, but would be very underwhelmed if that's the big and sole Roman program.

[Loss]

He didn't say Brock-Roman wasn't their current plan. He said he didn't expect that it would happen at Wrestlemania. He wasn't reporting it as news.

[Mando]

I hope we get Brock vs Sheamus at some point

 

Seconded! Loved Sheamus aggressively laying in shots on Brock in the corner. I can't offhand think of any other potential pairings I'd be more excited by (save for Daniel Bryan versus Brock in the vein of the Danielson/Morishima feud).

[Loss]

I don't expect Bryan to wrestle again in WWE. But I do think his music starting when we find out who drew number one, him somehow sidestepping/eliminating Brock later and Brock rushing in and putting the hurt back on him and taking him out of the Rumble to set up a WM match would be a case where fans would easily accept Bryan not winning the match. I don't expect that at all, but one can dream.

Brock vs Sheamus from last Friday night in Houston might still be on YouTube. They definitely have a longer ppv match in them.

[Strummer]

Dave in his update says the finish of the Rumbe has been written and it will lead to a big match at Fastlane. They want Fastlane to be seen as a major show and not a buffer for Mania

[DMJ]

Here's hoping he's right - I've got tickets!

[sek69]

So I wonder what the deal is with Lana, her Twitter is full of "don't let the man get you down" type of stuff, and she disappeared off TV even before Rusev fell into the Schrodinger's Cat black hole of WWE injuries.

[Death From Above]

I asked in multiple places if I missed something with her just disappearing off TV and absolutely no one seems to have a clue why. It's very odd because they were building an angle there and it just got dropped with no explanation.

 

Even when the Del Rio/Zeb Mexiamerica thing bombed they blew it off with a Del Rio promo where he fired the guy.

[sek69]

She clearly seems to be thinking she's being fucked with by the company if the tone of her tweets are any indication.

[RCS1988]

If the finish for the Rumble is written and they want Fast Lane to feel like a big show, then have the Rumble end in a no-contest.

[Strummer]

Stephanie on twitter says she is training for Wrestlemania. A vague statement but maybe she's doing a match. If not Rousey maybe Sasha or of that ilk

[sek69]

She clearly seems to be thinking she's being fucked with by the company if the tone of her tweets are any indication.

[sek69]

She just posted a CJ Perry demo reel on YouTube and WWE immediately blocked it on copyright grounds. Unless this is just all some meta-angle she seems to be trying to provoke them now.

 

Edit: stupid mobile posting

[Strummer]

Well this is not going to end well. She was arguably one of the most over acts in the company last spring/summer and now she's trying to get fired it seems

[jcmmnx]

I'm not going to be surprised if we get Brock vs Roman at Fastlane and HHH vs Roman at Mania. I think it's a foregone conclusion HHH is going to headline the biggest Mania ever. Brock vs Orton and Taker vs Sheamus will probably round out that shit show while NXT puts on their best show ever(especially if Nakamura and Styles are there).

was going to post the exact same thing....Brock/Roman at Fastlane jives with the rumors that they want Fastlane to be a big deal. It would be so like this company to do Brock/Roman at the B show and the much less intriguing Roman/HHH at WM.

Would prefer Brock/HHH (uneasy alliance) vs Ambrose/Reigns at Fastlane and then Mania be Brock/Reigns and Backlash be HHH/Reigns. Would be way better.
