I think the scripted announcing bugs me the most. These are the people that are supposed to be pushing what's on screen and they hardly ever come off as sincere or believable(I realize the irony of saying that).

Yeah, it reminds me of a sports video games where the announcers just say quasi-related things at random intervals.

I meant to mention this last night: Now that MNF is over, we can expect HHH back so he can claim to have boosted ratings for RAW. Teh Haitch! Ironically, another HHH would do this back in the late 90's/early 00's.

With the way the last few months have gone, I saw: "WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair, 67, dead" and freaked out a little.

I don't know if there has been an official announcement, or if what I'm going to type is even true, but I saw a retweet from someone claiming that DDP and Rick Rude will be going into the HoF

I'll be curious to see if they induct Shaq as the celebrity, with it being in Orlando and all. I figured they put him in the ARMBAR last year for that exact reason.

Apparently, there was a Ryback interview yesterday (which I listened to some on my ipad, but don't have time to search for right now), where he absolutely destroyed John Cena. Says he single-handedly ruined Alex Riley's career (apparently there might be a Riley interview somewhere too?) and is the reason HHH has kept guys down at NXT longer than expected (because he didn't want Cena burying them). You kind of have to take Ryback with a grain of salt, but it's pretty inflammatory stuff.

Think ryback lies a lot but apparently quite a few people have said that about cena.

Burying everyone makes one sense tho. If you bury everyone before they get over you make less money

There's a pretty public story out there about Cena changing the finish to go over Nexus at the last minute. Sources (Edge & Jericho) are pretty reliable. I've even read that Cena himself now regrets that decision. Think Ambrose had some heat for a while for refusing to job to him when the Shield was red hot too. Cena thinks Cena wins is $$.....or used to anyway. Perhaps he's come around a bit more. Hogan used to think the same way.

Bryan Alvarez mentioned on Wrestling Observer Live that "Vince [McMahon] has something huge for WrestleMania that everyone will LOVE."

Alvarez was reportedly told the news by Dave Metlzer but both are keeping the news under wraps because they don't want Vince to change the match, something he has done in the past when news has leaked.

Useless tidbit: Back in like 2006 Batista and AJ had legit beef and dissed each other in shoots.

I heard Joey Samoey is in for a big push when he debuts. Chances are slim but AJ vs Joe at WM would be so awesome.

Alvarez's WM surprise is now stated as being the reason Cena/Taker was scrapped, meaning it likely involves Cena or Taker.
