Yeah, for as much as he doesn't care about wrestling in a John Cena "WWE is my life" way, when he shows up he brings it better than just about anyone on the roster. I'll miss you when you ride off into that MMA sunset, sweet beast.

You are now hearing this
noise in your head.



Lesnar owns at pro wrestling. He always goes out of his way to make things look great, and he basically demands snug offense.

And he protected a totally unconscious Undertaker through a 20 minute disaster of a match, but at least it made it to the end.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

Reigns is getting photocopies now of the very worst John Cena poopy poop scripts, so WWE must really be 100% behind him now.

Cena doesn't have a rematch, he won the #1 contenders spot. Just sayin'

2006-2015 is all a blur to me.

I'm glad I wasn't a huge Roman Reigns fan before, because I'd be really loving bummed out by all of this if I had been.

Oh, thank you. I was trying to remember what the line was that made me roll my eyes so hard I got a headache.

I feel you, dude. I was so hype on Roman, but now I just feel bad for him. He has all the tools, but instead of letting him learn how to use them, he's become an action figure for a developmentally stunted rich man to play with on national TV.

I agree the writing was poo poo, but a better mic worker would've been able to make that material at least marginally work. Roman just doesn't have the chops for it. Rock could. Ambrose could. Cena would sound cheesy as hell but it'd be consistent with his persona. The lines are silly, but they're also being written for the wrong character.

The thing is, that's obvious (or should be) to everyone watching so why are WWE trying to shove the square peg into the round hole? Why not focus on his strengths - big, tall, good looking guy who kicks peoples asses and whose best promos have been short, to the point affairs generally consisting of,"I'm gonna kill you to death."

It's alright, Roman. You're probably still winning the Royal Rumble.

I'm still fearful they're going to try to recapture the magic of last year by having some heel spill Bryan out of the ring before introducing Roman, in hopes that like last year the crowd picks up on Roman as the best alternative to what they actually want. Of course, this time around Roman is more likely to find himself in the Batista role.

Daniel Bryan will leave the WWE and join the UFC, WWE will let Dean Ambrose get the Mania main event and Reigns will get a big movie role and quit wrestling in three months.
