Last year, he was truly just shoehorned in, because the fans were just too loud to ignore. At least this year would be more justified. This year, Bryan can claim a rematch he never got for a title he never lost. And if there's some sort of double-pin/DQ/screwy finish at FastLane, it would be logical for both he and Reigns to face Lesnar at WM. That said, I do wish they'd cool it with the triple threat main events at Mania. 10 years ago, it was a novelty. These days, it's as common as a Dusty Finish used to be. I would argue they had a better reason last year as Bryan wasn't even in the Rumble and never lost a title match clean to Orton. The Authority hates Bryan, why would they give him another shot when they don't have to? Respectfully... It was never explicitly said that he was even in the Rumble match last year. They had no intention of putting him there. They were planning to pair him against Sheamus, somewhere in the mid-card of WM 30. I'll agree that he never lost clean in title matches against Orton (I was even ringside for Hell In The Cell in 2013, to see for myself). Anyway, once the fans realized their favorite guy wasn't going to be where they wanted him for Mania, they made themselves heard, until WWE had no real choice. At least this year, logic follows a real (but basic) storyline. |

Awesome, awesome show. Very well booked. I probably would've booked it same as you. I'm loving the new Camp Cornette with the Thrillseekers and Bulldog. An all (real-life) Kliq tourney final. Helmsley winning was the right choice. An intended winner in real life, just a year early. Can't wait for the Razor-Helmsley title feud, as well as whatever's brewing with Luger and Undertaker. I'm ready to see how 1995 WCW competes in your world. Great job, please keep it up.

Taking my fiance out to dinner after her shift at the hospital. Exchanging gifts. I know her gift to me will be taking me to the SmackDown taping on the 17th.

I'm gonna go out o a limb and say Luger wins the tourney. I agree with Dragon that Unibomb should defeat Yokozuna, as not to ruin his character. The Thrillseekers vs. Bret/Bulldog should rock. I wouldn't have minded seeing that happen in real-life. Can't wait for the card. Keep it up!

Your wife sounds a lot like my fiance. Any time she sees a Daniel Bryan or CM Punk figure in a store that I don't have, she'll get it for me, just because. Sometimes she jokes - "I know if I ever got you anything with John Cena on it, you'd kill me." - as a way of reminding me she knows my favorites.
Anyway, definitely hang on to her.

The only time I had a sign taken away at a WWE event (PPV), it was because it would've blocked the hard camera. Other than that, I've had no issue.

Rumor is Philadelphia wants WM33 badly. If that's the case, I will be going then. That's only a 4 hr drive for me! Not to jinx you, but I'm equally praying for 33 to happen in Orlando. Would be my fourth Mania overall (with 11, 24, and 28). |

I would love Adam Cole in WWE/NXT, but knowing them... Good News - He gets to keep his name. Bad News - He's the second coming of Eugene, brought in as Michael Cole's idiot nephew. I can't see WWE doing a gimmick where he's Michael Cole's idiot nephew I can't either. I was just thinking the worst-case scenario, so that any other way he'd be brought onto the roster, would be much better. |

The following is strictly my own opinion, I have no idea what WWE is planning to do on Sunday, but a thought came to me last night, as all the talk surrounded 'Should Cena give up his title shot for his friends' jobs?'...
I have no idea what plans WWE may have for a title change, or who is to win the Rumble match itself. I know we all have our own ideas and reasons behind those ideas. However, regardless of who the title opponent is at WM 31, I believe Brock should retain the WWE title on Sunday, and keep it through to WM 31. That way, Brock stays looking like an unstoppable beast until then. Any interruption in the reign between Rumble and Mania (whether it be Cena, Rollins, or anyone) would do a disservice to that buildup. So, assuming Brock's leaving the company after Mania, they are then free to book whoever they want as the big, conquering hero.

Seems like maybe an appropriate time to try WarGames, or maybe a new concept we haven't ever seen before. Something to drum up interest in a get me to Mania PPV. To put their own "stamp" on it, to make them feel that it's "theirs", they could do a Wargames-style match inside a Hell In The Cell cage. |

Unfortunately, it seems The Ascension has been ruined with how they've been handled thus far on WWE TV. And that's a shame, because I'm a huge Ryan O'Reilly (Konnor) fan from his FL indy days, and it seems I've been waiting forever for him to finally make it to WWE proper.

Sorry to see Regal go. I thought you would go somewhere with him after he broke away from the Corporation.
Nice to be reminded of the little WCW "Invasions". I hope you have something planned behind all that. It'll be great to see the Monday Night War unfold in your reality.
I loved the MSG Network events. I wish they still held them. Then again, I wish I still lived in the tri-state area...lol. Keep up the great work.
