AJ vs Shinsuke
KOSZ/Shane & Cena?

Cena will earn the opportunity to be in the fatal 5 way tomorrow by winning a match against Nakamura. He'll then go on to win the now six-pack challenge to become champion, leading to his match against Nakamura at Mania.

Yea, some wear and tear issue in his foot, should be back a couple weeks after Mania I think.

Another champion related pet peeve of mine is when WWE doesn't have the champ come out last.

This one really bugs me too, at least booking is hard, you have to manage conflicting interests at the same time and leave yourself options open in case plans change due to injury or other unforeseen factors. There is zero difficulty in having the champion come out last, I feel like WWE actually has gotten a little bit better about this in recent months but it's something that should really never happen at all.

"loser lays out the winner" almost never ever works and I don't know why they do it so often. It was especially stupid to do since the guy getting laid out is about to main event the biggest show of the year.

You don't want to give any one guy too much or else he will outshine the rest of your roster.

The initial idea for Team Hell No was brought up by Road Dogg. Kane said that it was the most fun he's had in his career, he looked forward to coming to work and learning what he was doing next. Daniel Bryan and Kane are great friends in real life, and he thinks that really helped out their chemistry together. He thinks they both took things from each other when it was over.

Team Hell No was always bad??

This time they decided "hey, if we do a real squash maybe people will get pissed at Brock and like Roman."

Who is the target audience for this tho? Casual fans don't follow house show results and hardcore fans are aware of the fact that the Reigns angle isn't really a shoot. I guess they got a lil of mainstream coverage for the house show match but even that seems like a drop in the bucket.
