And how the gently caress are they gonna explain it without it being "we are taking everyone off tv who has been concussed because of the lawsuit but we aren't mentioning it because of the lawsuit"? Ahem, "mild concussion" http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2015-07-27/alicia-fox-injured

The New Day took an awful dated gimmick and turned it around into something legit entertaining through their sheer force of charisma and wrestling skill. If you can't appreciate that I'm not sure what to tell you.

More and more I think that not giving Roman the briefcase was a mistake. He was getting rehabbed nicely leading into MITB, and got the coolest spots in that match, and by the end even I was cool with him winning. He could've done the babyface thing of cashing in ahead of time and they could've run Rollins/Reigns at SummerSlam, and I think people would've been very happy if he won there. In that scenario, they probably wouldn't have had to hit the Cena panic button since that's a great co-main under Taker/Brock. Instead they gave it to a heatless midcarder nobody wants to see win the title, and you would barely even know he has the briefcase.

Chris James 2 posted:This way he can win the Rumble again and win the belt proper at Mania I'll be shocked if Cena isn't carrying the belt into Mania. You know the money shot Vince wants -- Cena loses to Reigns cleanly, shakes his hand afterwards, lifts up his arm, and possibly has a literal torch to hand off.

Niwrad posted:I think my problem with Sheamus and the briefcase is that you barely know he has it. He doesn't taunt the champ with it and doesn't really bring it up much. I don't think he's even teased a cash-in which is always fun. The other problem with him winning is ... where's the story? Usually when a guy wins the briefcase you can immediately see what stories and feuds he will have for the next several months (like Rollins last year with the Shield fallout). The gently caress has Sheamus been doing lately, other than a feud with Orton that nobody cares about?

Seems like only a matter of time before Vince digs up NXT tapes in the dumpster, sees Becky Lynch's debut Riverdance gimmick, and is like "HOLY poo poo WE GOTTA DO THIS"

Observer posted:With the Lana as the female superstar of the company direction already seemingly changed and her now just being another character on the show, the new idea is to find a “Latin female star of the company.” They are looking for sex appeal and Spanish speaking skills for someone who can be front and center to expanding to the Latin audience. Like with Lana, it doesn’t have to be a wrestler. There are people who are starting to search for Latin female weather reporters in Mexico who are chosen for looks. The perfect person they are looking for is, unfortunately for them, under contract with Lucha Underground in Melissa Santos, who is easily the best female ring announcer in the wrestling business right now. Well, if Lucha Underground doesn’t have a second season, she’d be available. Hope y'all ready for that Rosa Mendes push Also lol at them loving up Lana's push so badly

Lana and Roman Reigns are Exhibit A and B for how, even when WWE wants someone to get over, they still gently caress it up

So if Cena has to miss Summerslam, who does Rollins get as an opponent? Does he even defend the title or just get plugged into one of the random multi-man matches they're building up?
