I have nothing against the hard stop - it's refreshing actually. Need I remind you guys of the years of suffering we faced when RAW or SD would go over by 20-30 mins sometimes. It was agony, especially for fans across the pond where those shows air in morning. The way I look at it is, these guys are professional athletes/actors, so they should be able to cut their promo right to the post.
We already want these shows to be cut down by an hour, don't start wishing for an extra 5 mins.

Braun? The guy thats going against the SNL guys is over more then the guy that won the Rumble and got a title match against Lesnar? Well, put it this way. As bad as the SNL stuff is, would you even care if it was Rollins in Braun’s spot? Rollins won the Rumble and is in the title match BECAUSE nobody would care for his match otherwise. SOMETIMES, like in Becky’s case, it’s best for the best person to win the belt. Other times, less popular superstars need an “interest amplifier”. Rollins needs the amplifier You’re looking at the wrestling business from the standpoint of a mark. In WWE’s eyes, Braun’s match is MUCH more high profile than Seth’s. The only way you can argue Rollins NEEDS an amplifier is because hes been one of the biggest names in the company for nearly the entire post shield run, and even the time the shield was around (first time) he was main eventing. Lynch is a 6 month flame that will burn out in a couple months. As soon as she is champ and squashed a few people, everyone will be on to the next. And Rollins will still be main eventing. To call a battle royal feud with some low budget comedian bigger than the universal title match is absolutely ing the type of thing that gets you piss tested.

Rollins isn’t a draw, Lesnar is. Rollins wasn’t the draw against Cena, Cena was. He wasn’t the draw against Orton, Orton was. They put him against people that can draw, or surround him by a collection of people that can draw aka the authority or the shield. Rollins is HHH of this era, he needs to be in a faction otherwise nobody cares. Also, if you think they don’t think of the SNL skit as top billing, take a look at the amount of time dedicated to it compared to the time given to the world title match And please don’t say he’s over because the crowd says “burn it down”. They also recite Paul Heymans entire monologue, we giving Paul a title shot? No non wrestling media outlet will cover Rollins vs Lesnar. They’ll all cover the SNL Braun stuff though. That’s mass exposure for wwe

The SNL stuff is a joke and is being treated as such. Braun has become a joke and an afterthought.

So Rollins isn’t a draw, SNL isn’t a draw, So you’re saying Rollins was just thrown into the title match then based on nothing but it’s ludicrous to think they internally value the SNL stuff, which will garner them 10x the national media exposure, more than a title match with 2 guys that apparently don’t draw...🤔

Seth Rollins pinky is better than brauns whole life. You're just intentionally acting like a tool now. Feel free to get the last word in if that's important to you, I'm done responding to anyone that thinks braun stroman is over at all anymore.
