It's kind of funny how I expected Connor's Cure to be a scam charity much like Susan Komen, but its seems like it's pretty legit, the only bad thing is how cynical WWE is in promoting it

Should have named the charity Roman Reigns, wakka wakka

WWE should let Taker take a lot of steroids and get as big as Lesnar before Roman kills him again.

taker vs cena would be so awful, undertaker has been really, really terrible for the last couple of years, it's just painful and sad to watch him hobble out with his gut and receding hairline to not be able to wrestle, just stop please

also, cena has been mailing it is so bad since that rumble match, he doesn't even care, remember when he showed up to survivor series not even wearing the smackdown colours? I'd rather watch a boring rear end orton main event than taker vs cena now

Undertaker's WWE career has been "do the thing we should have done five years too late" for nearly a decade now, why not just keep going with it? I'm sure Taker is fine getting a giant paycheck to look old and tired for about 40 minutes once a year

Paige was the first to figure out that doing a submission hold while on a table adds 50% more damage to the recipient. Truly ahead of her time.

i also have to say over the past couple months i've found the ascension extremely endearing and am rooting for them, feel like they've really grown as a tag team and seeing the breezango/ascension flip was a lot of fun

that being said wwe won't do anything with them just like breezango but i will still wish and hope

I would legit have a good laugh if they put Ellsworth in the womens rumble and had him just get tossed out, I mean they had Becky throw him around already and could be a tie back to the money in the bank stuff

It's called a joke but even still Triple H didn't either. It makes the wrestlers look stupid and Cena is smart enough not to do it. Given he wasn't even supposed to be wrestling that night it's hard to blame him for having an off night when he's thrown into the match randomly and booked to be an absolute nothing in it.

Sasha internally got a lot of heat at the time. The kick was way too hard. It is a loving live event not a PPV. But the real blame was put on the road agent/producer of the match (I don't know who that was to be honest their name was supplied to me) as the spot should have been approved at a high level and basic common sense should have been used about her neck.

Yeah, a blind kick to the back is a stupid idea on someone with a surgically repaired neck regardless.

If it wasn't the kick it probably would have been something else. Just a matter of time, unfortunately.

Oh yeah I'm sure it was inevitable but they should be trying to avoid it as much as possible.

But then looking at some of the stuff they're doing in Sheamus matches maybe they just don't know how to protect someone's drat neck.
