I would prefer they all get to keep the tactical gear they had going but we can't all get what we want. At least Roman gets to keep his.

It's news, but it's also pretty spoilery. From this week's Figure Four Weekly.

Who's winning the title at Money in the Bank?

At press time, it's looking like John Cena is going to get the title at Money in the Bank, which...sure, that's fine. Realistically, it's probably too soon for Roman Reigns, though after seeing the reaction he got for winning the battle royal on Raw, it felt "right" to hotshot the belt onto him. Seth Rollins, who feels like the best person to put the title on right now, isn't in the match, instead being the first wrestler put in the second ladder match for the Money in the Bank contract.

And with Brock coming back at Summerslam, welp there's your main event of Summerslam.

I still wish he'd at least add some colour to the outfit to move him away from the Shield gimmick. Maybe a splash of red or blue? Change the colours on the buckles on his tacticool vest?

I mean, I'm alright with him keeping the overall outfit (it looks good on him), but then at least move away from uniform black. Otherwise it's just, like, Roman Reigns is still the Shield all by himself. And that's weird. Especially if they have an eye on maybe a nostalgia run down the road.

I'd seen some rumours that fall in line with this, but replace Cena with Cesaro to angle into a Summerslam feud with Lesnar.

Meh. If this is the way it'll unfold, that's pretty underwhelming. Looks like they are going full-on panic mode with D-Bry on the shelf.

If they're doing Brock vs. the champ at Summerslam, isn't Cena the best choice? Cena's the only credible face champ who wouldn't be hurt by losing to Brock after a short reign. Their last match was good before the stupid ending and worse post match promo, if Brock goes over as he should that has the potential to be a great Summerslam main.

That's for pretaped shows and stuff we know for a certainty is going to happen before it's aired. Informed booking speculation that could easily be changed at the last minute isn't really a spoiler IMO.

Assuming it's Cena/Brock it seems like they really want to Cena/Rock 2 lightning to hit again. How can we make the rematch bigger? Add the title! And honestly it might and it could help subs, although I'd honestly prefer something like Bray/Bryan 2 for the title with Bryan winning the title back while keeping Cena/Lesnar separate. Would be a nice way to bring Bryan back and let him get his win back from the Wyatts.

Also I didn't realise until a friend pointed it out to me, but Wyatts could walk out with a lot of gold coming out of MitB, I want that so bad now :allears:

It's more you can instantly know what is being discussed without even needing to look at the size of spoilered words - you can tell just from people's reactions, honestly. Depressed reactions narrow it down to 2 possible answers, and talk of panic mode leaves no doubt at all.

Matt Striker would have mentioned it about 17 times in their first match.

They should develop a tag-team finisher and call it the Dusty Finish.

I like the idea of Brock winning the title at Summerslam myself. He demanded a title shot in February and iirc proceeded to win a match of some importance at WrestleMania. Guy should be getting a shot.

Ideally I wish he could win it from a healthy and competently booked Bryan coming off a feud with somoene that wasn't Kane, but there's nothing that can be done about that now. Cena's the best placeholder champ if they go that route. And honestly, if his last reign pre-injury was the best they're willing to book Bryan I have no desire to see him back with the belt anytime soon.

Wrestling Observer daily update posted:

-- WWE sent out a survey asking fans who they wanted Brock Lesnar to challenge for the WWE World Heavyweight Title at SummerSlam. So that's confirmed.

I'm sure they will give deep thought to the survey responses and not just go with whoever they want.

Didn't see it commented on, but the other day WWE had an article/thing on their front page saying there was a return to the "Ruthless Aggression Era". Are they testing the waters on if it is okay to talk about Benoit again?

Doing a search I can't find an article titled that, maybe it was just a headline. I don't see it on their front page anymore.

On the running live stream, there are so many frequent Benoit appearances now that they should probably just start tagging the matches so that your attention isn't drawn to the big 30 minute gap in the tags of every show he's on.
