It doesn't help Cesaro that he's only used his most over move once in what seems like months. And even then that was against Cena this week on Raw.

Smackdown doesn't count cause no one watches it

It's also really weird that they seemed to have gone all in with the "King of Swing" moniker at exactly the same time he stopped doing it. Remember how we heard Triple H had a lot of power during Mania weekend? That makes me think this whole weird Cesaro situation might be part of a power struggle between Vince and Triple H.

The last time Cesaro was depushed was because he was "Boring and had a funny accent", which stinks of Kevin Dunn.

Though it'd probably be harder to get kids hyped for Sting in 2014, I always preferred when Sting didn't talk.

It's not like he's bad at it or anything. It was always just way cooler to me as a kid and sold me on the idea that he was an Undertaker-like mystical entity.

I'm probably biased though because the first time I saw Sting was Starrcade 97

If Sami Zayn is one the roster than that probably means he's getting called up soon right? Either that or they're really going to push NXT hard.

It's almost astounding how badly the Heyman/Cesaro pairing went. At least Curtis Axel got a title run out of his pairing.

I'm leaning further and further towards getting WWE Network. I work 2nd shift (3 PM to 11:30 PM) and never get a chance to see any of the shows as they happen and I just do not feel like trying to find a stream when I get home. It would be so much easier to just be able to pull it right up.

May just wait until Monday Night Wars are added, but I'm 65-35 right now on getting it this month.

The way the games' rosters are locked into place so far ahead of time, it's more likely they're just including NXT as it currently is. They already did most of the NXT move sets last year and put in the arena, so it makes sense for them to include it properly this time around.

He has an action figure in the works. They serious about him.

WWE Network is rolling out Worldwide which means NXT is rolling out Worldwide to places international where it isn't airing already.

They're serious about him until randomly one day for no reason they're not and he gets jobbed down to main event, then back to NXT and then released.

In WWE anymore you really can't be disappointed about your horse not finishing the race because they're in the business of breaking legs before any of them can hit their stride. It's bizarre.

Not a really huge scoop, but I thought some folks on here might find it interesting.

Friend of mine "got a call" from WWE and is packing her bags. Not sure if it's an evaluation/testing or if she got a contract, but she's a graduate from Lance Storm's school, so this might be another indicator that they're trying to beef up the Diva's division with non-models.

By the way even as Taker mark #1 who was there live in person when Taker got beat (I initially thought Taker kicked out, which was why Heyman was shocked when in reality it because Brock had WON), I have since come around to the fact that having Brock break the streak was perfect and I hope Lesnar continues wrecking poo poo. Why? Because Brock's a part-timer, and remains a part-timer. If some full time guy had broken The Streak, he'd need to lose too often. Giving it to Brock solidified Brock forever as an insta-win button and someone worth making GBS threads pants over.

I'm not saying Brock should never lose the titles but he should win them (and I believe he's going to, and lose them to Reigns at Mania, at which point much of PSP will probably get Real Mad but as it stands now I will mark out and laugh) and then Brock can leave for a while again to feud with Bryan or a returning Punk or something equally needing a huge fight feel.

I will be legitimately shocked if Cena wins at Summerslam. If Cena had lost at ER '12, I'd feel the opposite but I honestly think they'll have Brock win to generate excitement and set up a Cena/Brock rubber match down the line.

I guess the tl;dr is Brock owns and I hope he wins the titles and eventually loses them and everything Brock-related will continue to be a huge moment which is cool. :)

I expect Brock to win, but I hope they have Rollins cash in the MitB to beat him for the title. Then Brock can disappear again for six months and meanwhile we'll have someone who provides more than a couple days of entertainment a year holding the belt.

That said, this is the one match where I hope Cena actually wins.

If Seth Rollins cashes in on Brock Lesnar and leaves with the title I'll piss off until WM31 etc :toxx: lol

I forgot that this was an option and now I kind of want WWE to recreate that moment when Edge cashed in on John Cena for the first time... only this time it's Brock and he completely eats Rollins alive despite being through a match. Wouldn't even leave Rollins in any worse position, it's Brock after all.
