The Pre-Preshow is WCW Chi-Town Rumble. Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat for the world title. Pretty much owns. Steamboat totally nosold the effects of the Figure Four seconds after it's release after being in it for like 3+ minutes though. Kind of weird to see.

They just keep boozing him down. Who do they think they are, some kind of bald texan from 8 years in the future?

Maybe Sandow impressed with how well he's been doing with the weirdo jobs they've been giving him and they're handing off that weird thing Miz was doing that didn't go anywhere where he bumrushed the booth to whine. Sandow will do it way better anyway.

Did John teach the Uso's how to cut a Cena Promo? That was kind of horrible but also kind of fun.

Uh oh, Dean Ambrose is laughing off a major defeat rather than getting really depressed about it. Time to hate him just like Cena.

Throwback RVD singlet. I feel bad for Swagger losing his feud to the guy who just recently came back now he's just gonna start jobbing to both of them.

Nah, I'm guessing that Cesaro is going to stick his nose into this match and then Adam Rose will make the save after last weeks little dust-up.

I honestly think part of the problem with Adam right now is that his entorage comes in first to their own music. It looks awkward and it dilutes the pop.

They should do it like they do on NXT and turn the lights down and flash some colorful party strobes and smoke machines so you can just get little glimpses of them and then the lights come up when Adam shows up and the real music starts.

Wow, Alicia is doing great right now with the promo and the being all viscious. Who knew she was good for something other than backbreakers?

Also that pop for Paige getting back up from the ambush. Is this really happening? Do people care about Divas? It's so beautiful... :swoon:

I really hope this is the Payback Diva's Title feud, because I am LOVING it.

DEAR WWE. YOU ARE DOING THE DIVA'S DIVISION RIGHT! KEEP LETTING THEM HAVE CHARACTERS AND DO STUFF SO THEY WILL BE IMPORTANT. KTHANKS.

If Payback doesn't end with Paige returning JBL's hat and he is thereafter forever a Paige mark I'll be kind of sad.

He didn't Vacate... how odd. After that speech stayed in-kayfabe by blaming the injury on Kane and The Authority I thought for sure Stephanie was going to come out and take the belt since she's been harping on how she'd have to do it at every step of the Kane feud if he hosed up.

I guess they're waiting to see if he can recover in time for Payback, since that was in the cards due to the type of surgery?

Also drat, that Wyatt/Cena video package was fantastic.

.....it's actually really powerful and hasn't been beaten yet

Is it really misogyny when a scented chemical advertises itself by saying it makes the opposite want to sleep with you? Because I'm pretty sure every perfume and cologne advertises itself that way. Axe is just more frat boy about it.

I really hope this Alicia thing is a work. If I got three for three on Diva's I love leaving the show right after a major event that sets up potentially fun stories and robs the division of a high quality worker I'm going to cry. First Beth, then Kaitlyn, now this? :qq:

good match

the wrong man won though

The US Champion won. PSP never stops bitching when Champions lose matches on TV, especially if it's to set up the title feud, because they say it hurts the belt's value.

So let them build the belt by having the champ win you dumb babies.

It never fails to amaze me after weeks and weeks that people still whine about how weak Bryan looks in this feud rather than how strong Kane looks. Look deep into your Smark Hearts and ask yourself what your posts would look like if Kane was Brock Lesnar instead. I'm guessing they wouldn't be frogsirens about how much Daniel is being buried and how much dumb the whole thing is.

This is exactly how an Underdog Babyface vs Monster Heel feud is supposed to look. The only missteps have been how some of the monster movie vinettes make him look afraid of Kane, and even then those are the exceptions, in most of the angles he's been booked as ready and willing to fight despite the odds.

Except he's already beat Kane multiple times before.

I think this is the real sticking point for most people on PSP, they can't accept that there's are big differences between Kane in/out of his Mask and Kane face/heel. Each of the combinations is distinct and seperate and doesn't really bleed into any of the others, and frankly always has been. Just because Face Masked Kane in Team Hell No was goofy and fun and Unmasked Corporate Kane was a jobber does not mean that Masked Heel Kane can't be an unstoppable monster.

I mean, Kane's been that way since I was a kid, I don't see why it should change now. The crowd seems to accept it, don't know why the internet can't.
