Wrestling- NVG (SPOILERS inside view at your own risk) - Page 216

I liked how they said they were under the impression that it would be decided in the Rumble every year. It's a decent idea to reset the title at some point. I think maybe bringing Backlash back and resetting it after a good storyline would be alright.

Seems like an awful idea. That wouldn't headline though. Rock is obviously headlining in some way.

Yeah, it's weird, because I've watched this PPV and never was confused by that wording, but I guess I can see why they thought that back then. I don't know what I think about the yearly reset, my initial thoughts are I am against the champion losing the title for no other reason than the calendar, but like anything else in wrestling if it's done right it can work.

Cena/UT makes sense since it's rumored to be Taker's last match and Cena is one of the few Superstars he hasn't wrestled. The match being for the title is beyond stupid, though. If there was ever a match that didn't need a title to be "important," it's Taker/Cena.

lol Kalisto and Titus? Is Bray supposed to not care about titles at all? New Day not involved is so bad. Hate the whole brackt.

Kalisto is a great worker. If they were smart they would utilize this opportunity as a springboard to start a singles push. But he probably is just a throwaway so Ryback doesn't have to knock out somebody relevant in the 1st round.

Why would you want Bray Wyatt in when it's clear he already has something planned for SS. Unless you want to watch him lose in the first round. It cracks me up how the littlest things get people all riled up here

Ambrose being second in merch sales surprised me until I realized that he has basically no competition outside of Reigns.

Who said Ambrose was 2nd? Meltzer said Reigns was 2nd not long ago.

I haven't heard it before this, it definitely is surprising. I didn't see many people wearing Ambrose merch at the event I went to and he was headlining.

Ambrose has just been in filler ppvs though. Really no different than R-Truth filling in once. I doubt they were ever that big on R-Truth. He's not the only example, just the first to pop in my head.

he didn't fill in once. He headlined 5 of them.

As for him being 2nd or Roman, I've heard rumors for both of them being 2nd. I don't know if anyone knows for sure outside of WWE.

Allegedly, Paige got a huge pop for her entrance in Manchester (not surprising), but that was edited out of the Raw broadcast.

Paige was getting face pops in the US also, which is predictable given that her face opponents have been booked as idiots who keep taking her back after she turns on them. She comes off as the clever bad ass.

You misunderstood what I was saying. When they trust him to not be in a filler ppv (be main event of big 3) then I'll think that they actually think something of him.

I want to watch a non crowd noise edited version of Raw

New Day is so over, they're the story of 2015 imo. Imagine New Day in the TLC era vs Edge & Christian, that **** could headline PPV's.

Roooonayyyyyy spot was cool

Best chant imo was the "who are ya" chant @ Bron Stroman during the final segment

Any UK crowd automatically #2 behind post Mania Raw just cause UK'rs love to sing

The way they're playing up Reigns turning down the Authority spot really makes me think they do turn him at SS. I can't see Ambrose turning and joining The Authority whatsoever. The only other alternative is Reigns goes over clean, Ambrose turns after the match, then Sheamus cash-in.

Or it just happens straight up. They shake hands afterwards. Sheamus knocks Ambrose out with the briefcase and loses to Reigns when he cashes in a minute later.

I kind of wish Dids still posted so I could shove the New Day being the only thing watchable in his face.

Really not looking forward to the new day face turn. You know it's coming and you know it's going to suck when it does
