The blubbering giant is gonna help Johnny win. He was fired. He's not under contract. Johnny promises to hire him back so we'll have some angle where he's Johnny's bitch for a month.

The mere possibility of this happening is keeping me from ordering the PPV.

One thing for sure, giving Big Show a new gimmick where he walks around with Hornswoggle attached to his back saying nothing but Hodor would make him pretty badass.

But yeah, Big Slow going full heel is the only way he wont be mega AIDS in this story. The guy is ****ing terrible face and even Cena struggles to get away with "I want to be good but they are forcing me to be bad!" story.

It's pretty dumb since it would be smarter for Show to let Cena win and get his job back from the new GM.

That's kinda why I'm starting to think it won't be Big Show. It's too obvious that he would get involved so WWE is probably going to swerve us and bring back someone like Matt Morgan or Batista.

Whatever happens its gonna be a hugely overbooked mess that will take a 37.2 minute promo between 6 people at the start of Raw the next night to explain it.

FYP

We need a gif to meme how terrible HHH promos are. Something like a youtube vid of the show, the start of his theme then the mouse selecting pause then further points on the track bar until 22 minutes later the promo ends and he hits play again.

For the record I still have no idea what exactly those promos were all about in the run up to the Taker match at WM other than snippets people mentioned in this forum. Even when HBK was on screen I had to just skip forward cos I knew a dose of triple aids was just around the corner.

I think I would rather him return to commentary, though I was one of the few people who really enjoyed his run with the belt.

Has Matt Morgan left TNA? Why do people keep bringing him up? Also he would have no impact at all because no one watches TNA and hardly any would remember him from the Team Lesnar days.

It'll be awesome if the swerve us all by just having Cena beat up Ace for 5 minutes then beat him clean with an FU followed by an STFU.

Angle would be ****ing awesome tho

People recently added to the WWE.com Alumni page are RVD and Shane McMahon. The problem of course is both will get absolutely huge pops on the night, but tbh I think every known wrestler will so who ****ing knows at this point. My money is still on hugely overbooked mess but the timing of Shane being added this week is interesting.

Ahhhhhh, getting closer to the PPV, well since this is a May PPV, I don't have much high hopes for it. Basically, my expectations is just that if Punk/Bryan gets more than 20 min. and that they need to do what they need to do, then everything else would not matter. I mean if everything else is good, then that's great, but all I want is Punk/Bryan to deliver.

Punk
BoomTruth
Sheamus
Big Johnny
Kane
Beth

Only 5 matches on the card, there will be so many video packages and random squashes...

My confidence picks for this one (last PPV I got 16 of 21 possible points on a six-match card):

My shoe-in of the card:

1. CM Punk over Daniel Bryan. I mean this clearly feels like a place-filler, like they just went "oh, we need a championship match this month. Let's give it to Bryan, we've been pushing him so he slips into a title match pretty easily for the three or four week timeframe that we have to make something up." And then they never bothered to build it since. I'll give them serious props if they can get me to buy into a Bryan near-fall at any point. Still, from a technical standpoint this should be the match of the night and hopefully will be one of the best of 2012.

Pretty sure:
2. Kane over Zack Ryder. They're not having Ryder go over Kane cleanly without help from someone big like Cena, and someone big like Cena isn't interfering on his behalf on a YouTube pre-show.

3. Big Johnny over Cena. Obviously only due to interference by whoever. I just don't see them killing Johnny off as commissioner right now.

Sorta sure:
4. Beth Phoenix over Layla. I certainly hope that they're building for Beth v. Kharma at SummerSlam, and they can't be having Beth go under Layla in the meantime if that's the plan. Time to strap Beth again.

Getting shaky:
5. Ghana-Compton Connection over ZigSwag. This just makes more sense to me because G-C has more teams on the face/heel continuum that they can feud with over the belt.

No ****ing clue, really:
6. Sheamus retains in the Fatal Four-Way. But I mean none of these guys winning would completely shock me.
