God forbid they do a vignette for a few weeks like they did with Triple H when he was coming back from his knee surgery. I would have been more excited if they would have just shown him working out, getting stronger, etc. and then having him show up a week before NOC and have a faceoff with Lesnar or some poo poo.

But nope, let's go ahead and have him squash the whole roster for a month.

Cena should be in a frame-by-frame remake of the Rocky IV montage.

John Cena did not take a curb stomp through cinder blocks. He was physically dominated in a match for 15 minutes and made to look like a helpless child. He was not stretchered out he just looked helpless. He took a week off. That's plenty.

In all seriousness y'all as terrible as that main was, I don't honestly believe Cena's winning at NOC. I'm just irritated they sacrificed the Wyatts when they should've just cut the Slater Gator/Matadores tag and have him annihilate Heath Brock-style instead.

TBH giving Lesnar a one month reign and then having Cena vs. Reigns as the WM main event would be a pretty WWE thing.

Know what I would have rather seen? Cena and Wyatt have a normal match, Heyman shows up on the top of the ramp, Cena distracted, loses, then demolishes Bray afterwards. Or Wyatt completely destroys Cena, then Cena snaps afterwards. Or Cena loses to Wyatt and we spend weeks questioning whether he'll ever be the same and actually puts up a decent fight in like a 20 minute brawl against Lesnar. Or gently caress, have Cena win in a normal match and just talk about how he looks motivated or some poo poo.

Anything but "Let's have him squash one of the only intimidating characters we have left"

Yeah, and it's a circular thing since as long as heels get fed to the top face they will never has as much heat as they should.

Of course it would have been salvageable if it were just Harper or Rowan eating the pin, without that stupid "drag Bray into the ring" spot.

I thought they were going to have Lesnar go on this tear and Dean Ambrose or Daniel Bryan or Roman Reigns would be the one to stop him but now I think John Cena might do it at Night of Champions.

I hope that's not the case. It'd be fantastic for the rematch to be an even worse beating on John Cena.

I suppose it wouldn't be so bad if they were used correctly, but the fact that there's so few top names and they're all being used like loving poo poo (minus Ambrose/Rollins if you consider them in that tier) makes it completely useless.

At least Rusev and swagger put on more interesting matches. I think the most disappointing thing is that Mark Henry didn't show up to continue his feud? This whole show felt so weird and wrong.
