You lost me at "Brock Lesnar took a paycut." Didn't he specifically say they made him an offer he couldn't refuse? I just don't see it. Regardless, who knows about the rest of it. MetsFan said he will make $3 Mil a year with this new deal. I don't think he ever mentioned a pay cut. Maybe someone conjectured that after comparing it to Brock's former salary. I have no idea how much he made per year his last run.

I hope it's true. Ambrose is awesome and deserves a nice push.

Brock probably took a pay cut per year, but got a longer deal, so more money overall. Plus if he's face, he can rake it in on merch money.

So, essentially, if Rollins doesn't use his briefcase at Mania or Monday on Raw, he's not going to be WWE Champion via cash-in. Primarily because Brock likely isn't going to be around from Mania until the build for SummerSlam. With Cena and Bryan holding the midcard titles though, pretty much anyone with decent star power can be WWE Champion and WWE can weather the storm. This includes Reigns. I don't want to see Reigns as champion but I can't imagine having a mediocre champion is any worse than not having your champion around at all. Reigns or Rollins, one of the two, needs to be WWE Champion by the end of Monday night. Dean Ambrose is winning MITB this year imo. He's the perfect guy for the case and his gimmick plays right into the gimmick of cashing in the case. Obviously Ambrose facing Rollins or Reigns at SummerSlam makes tons of sense. I think that could be fun. Rollins doesnt get to cash in becausr Lesnars never around. Itd be cool to see how it plays out

Sounds like BS to me. I don't get why Ambrose floated around so long...he was so over and he lost again and again. He was more popular than Reigns. Same as Ziggler. Same as Bryan. Can't have that, so you have to make them look like crap.

Ambrose getting a main event push would make me happy in the pants.

Cena winning the US title makes no sense. Why not give the man a damn vacation? There's nothing for him to do, and rightfully so. His time is done, and has been for a while.

It makes sense if they legitimately want to elevate the mid-card titles now. Unfortunately, Rusev will more than likely be screwed in the process.

Daniel Bryan winning the IC title is fine. It's fresh, and different. Cena winning the title just doesn't roll off the tongue. It's dumb to give Cena the US title after 10+ years of not holding it. Rusev is better off building credibility to his character by defeating Cena, which elevates the title.

I'd rather have Cena as the U.S. Champ than the World Champ so that just sounds swell. Hopefully the Ambrose push is a push to a Triple Threat Title feud featuring Samoa Roma and Seth Rollins (with Seth as Champion).

Nope...Reigns should win on sunday. I didn't go threw three months of him getting the win at the Royal Rumble...then, get a clean win over Bryant at fast lane, just to have him lose. (If they want, have Rollins cash in the next night.)
I don't have problems with Cena or Bryant...kinda hoping Cena brings back the Spinner U.S. Title anyways.
Good for Dean.

If true, I can live with this. Mainly for a potential Ambrose push.
Make him wear ring gear though, lol.

Can't have that, so you have to make them look like crap. lol if you say so I'm sure it's just a coincidence that Dolph was "fired" about the same time Reigns came back, right when he was red hot. And that Ambrose was stuck in a feud that dragged on forever with Bray, that also saw him lose every big match in the feud, and left him directionless after it. And how Daniel Bryan lost his first match back on RAW... to Kane, and has been booked pretty much like crap since returning in general. Yep... all coincidences.

You do know the only reason Dolph was "Red hot" is because he got given the spot Reign was supposed to be in before he got injured, right? Ambrose's feud with Bray happened before Reigns came back, lmao Bryan definitely lost his first match back on RAW because they think him beating Kane would have been hurtful to Reigns, that's definitely what happened I'm sorry, but you're clearly blinded by hate for Reigns. What you're saying is just stupid.

You know how many people will cancel the network? You saw how many did when he won at The Royal Rumble, imagine if he won know at Mania? It'd be even worse. The only backlash is losing money and viewers And most of these butthurt fans are back already so what does that tell you? I'm not
