Needs more violence against women, imo.

Also, Ace getting mad at Eve and telling her to "have some respect for authority" was a nice lead in to the final segment as well. Good writing.

Did anyone answer my Q if ziggler got his rematch?

I dont recall him doing so, not sure if they will develop that or not but with Swagger holding the US it has opened the door to how they could feud through to WM if that is the plan with them.

Either that or mix it up sometimes where people waive their rematch clauses to get certain stipulations or I don't know, something.

Don't think Ziggler did get his rematch before he moved on to bigger and better things. The US Title is aids anyway just get rid of it IMO.

Only thing I disagree with in retrospect is the tag match being awesome. It was 2 minutes long and was purely a burial of Bourne now that we know what we know today. Lolol @ him though. Or lol @ WWE for not just letting them smoke. Maybe they should adopt the NBA's wellness policy.

Yea considering the guy who just won it never loses it back. Would be pretty awesome to have them go months just losing it back to the other person though lol

Which altogether is a really really weirdly designed policy.

I'm going with face because his opponents have been tyson kidd and jtg. Kidd is a heel and I assume jtg is as well but I haven't watched superstars in a while.

The fact that you don't have the faintest idea should tell you all you need to know about whether it matters or not.

Brodus is definitely face. He smiles and laughs and dances. He has also squashed three heel jobtards (well, 2 and Kidd) as said.

I think his faceness is as unsubtle as AJ not being Asian.

Anyway, B&W is up for last night:

Wow that was a really good show. Didn't see that coming at all. They advanced all their story lines nicely going into the RR. I can't think of a single segment that I really disliked.

Perez/divas was bad but very short, so whatever. Cena was very good today and Kane cut to the point in like 10 seconds. That show was a lot of fun!

I really, really like how Cena only had one segment this week, and although it had a minor case of aids, it wasn't anywhere near full blown blueboyaids.gif.

His bit in the write up about how Cena is the kind of guy who is all "rise above hate" and **** but when someone he likes loses a title in a fully sanctioned match involving zero cheating he goes ape**** and tries to straight up murder that person was good. And true.

I never really got how Cena was all "hustle, loyalty and respect" when he is taking Rey's title by making him compete twice in a 3 hour timespan or trying to murder Swagger for being booked into a match and facing someone injured not by him but someone else entirely and indirectly by Cena himself.

I get the feeling that Cena is going to Embrace the Hate® and end up attacking a bunch of faces without remorse. It remains to be seen whether it'll actually make people dislike him, or they'll think it's cool.

Im pretty convinced that it would be hard to turn Cena just because of how those who dont boo him are so markish they would just assume the other guy was a bad guy when he attacked them.

But yeah, they are definitely going down the road of a heel turn embracing the hate, but whether they finally do it or not is another question.

Oh god I never thought about the possibility of HHH returning at the RR to stop Johnny Ace from screwing over Punk, but now that Brandon mentions it I could absolutely see that happening. HHH is still the COO of the WWE so he could over-rule any decision Johnny Ace makes in the match.

Lol wwe kayfabe power structure. But yeah, in theory HHH returning at the RR to save Punk in some overbooked mess is within the realms of possibility, however i figure he will just be kept off TV until Taker returns in March.
