It's weird. In dire financial straits in the 90s they retooled things and were willing to give people a chance. Now? Double down harder on Cena and Reigns.

Well there was competition back then

I think NOC will exceed expectations and be good, especially if the Cena Brock match has a 5 minute trading German suplexes spot. Also the Reigns and Rollins will probably be even better than the one on Raw.

I don't want to feel nervous heading into a scripted event but that's exactly how I feel. There are so many different ways that WWE can screw up and damage the people I want to see irreparably. Ambrose can turn heel for no reason, the two best Divas could phase out of existence, rapadooing could potentially occur, Cesaro...well Cesaro's already hosed.

All Cesaro has to do is start winning matches and perform feats of strength to get back being over.

Not really surprised it exists I mean there is a Monopoly game for Superbowl XL

Winning the US title is the ultimate Catch 22 though. Great you're the United States champ, good luck riding that "momentum".

At least it's better than Fella rapadoo, which I'm pretty confident is gonna be the outcome.

Man I feel bad for Sheamus now that he is basically the Irish John Cena even though he usually has great singles matches.

If Brock Lesnar doesn't beat John Cena I will shove the entirety of Cenation up my butt. That's how certain I am that Brock will win. It would just be bad storytelling and a monumental failure to NOT let Ambrose, Reigns, DB, or some new person be the one to beat Brock.

It really is going to suck when everyone tries to convince Vince that Cena would be really really stupid and he just ignores it all because he is so bought into Cena.

I have to say I genuinely believe that say, HHH would try to talk Vince out of having Cena win the title. So maybe that'll help.

Hopefully Cena will stand up and say he should job, hell he should have probably told Vince not to destroy Bray the way he did 3 weeks ago

I mean the saddest thing to happen in my life was me ordering a chocolate milk at a sports bar with my parents instead of booze or even pop.

Also I grew up on the PS2 like a real man and played cool games like Ratchet and Clank, and Jak 2 and Sly Cooper and uh some of the early Medal of Honor Games, and uhhhh Smackdown vs Raw 2006. :smug:

Where is the discussion of Dean Turning and the Cena/Rusev program coming from?

Goons getting all doom and gloom sky is falling because WWE is mediocre/bad right now even though the PPV should still be good wrestling wise. Though the Cena/Rusev thing comes from Big Dave along with his report that Lesnar might lose even though that might be him getting false info.

Anyone who 'grew up' on the PS2 is not yet old enough to class themselves as grown up.

If your favourite wrestling game ISN'T WWF Superstars on the original Game Boy then you're a babby and should go back to your Cena merch stand.

Not my fault I had to grit my teeth and wait 11 years before I could get my first video game console while playing N64 at my friends house and sucking at Super Smash Brothers/Golden Eye.

Its all come back full circle since one of the first tag feuds in NXT was the Usos vs Ascension. As long as they get enough time and its not a prolonged squash match it should be fine.

They are okay and only look horribly boring because most of their run at NXT consisted of 2-4 minute squash matches and they do a total elimination finisher which is a move I didn't know was that hated.

Someone actually brought something interesting about Reigns and how this surgery might help him out a bit

quote:

Weirdly enough, this actually confirms something I've been hearing about the internet for a couple of years now, namely that Reign's has been working with a weakened back since his football days, which is why he always had help getting the person up for the triple powerbomb and never did the "bend over, wrench him up" part himself. If you notice in his moveset, he does a really good job of avoiding moves in which he has to bend over and then lift the person, always keeping his back straight. If so, hope this resolves some of his underlying medical issues.

Probably bullshit though

Also TNA may actually finally be dead now, Tommy Dreamer and other guys tweeted "great working with such a talented crew" messages and supposedly they laid off their live events crew last night. Vince will take the Hardys back now that they're not insane drug addicts, right?

Also take back the Dudleys so they can have nostalgia tag matches for a little bit

It really sucks for the Usos/Dust Bros match that all they had to do was have Stardust lift the knees and then hit his finisher on the Uso and that would be a good finish. I mean why can't that happen, it isn't like setting up a finisher would take as much time as a rollup. It isn't like the Usos losing via a finisher doesn't invalidate their rematch clause.

Also the ending of the main event really felt like Vince didn't want Cena to lose again because that would in his eyes destroy all his credibility. Though I still think Brock would have kicked out of that AA in 2.9 seconds and then get back to dominating Cena, hit a couple of F5's and win. Again I'm fine with Cena vs Brock III HIAC blowoff match since it will probably be a brutal match where Cena uses the Cell to level the playing field.

I'm guessing we see Sheamus drop the belt to Cesaro in a rematch tonight so he can move up the card until Reigns gets back.

I'm trying to think of guys who can face Brock after the Cena match and after last night, both Sheamus and Cesaro are up there; hell I kind of want to see Swagger fight Brock.

Also a dig on the seemingly missing giant swing that he never does.

He's actually pulls out from time to time lately, but on shows no one watches like Main Event. Also if you are heel its pretty good way to get heel heat by teasing and then denying the audience the move they want to see.
