Reigns was fine until they tried to turn him into a cartoon character with the Nerf Wrist Shotgun Pump Action and his increased Sheamus like smiling. It's hard to take a guy seriously as a badass tough guy when he's doing shit like that. They should have just let him continue on doing what he had been instead of insisting he have a catchphrase and mime actions.

Same with Batista and his bloody machine gun entrance. It's also why I struggle with the interpretive prancing in Balor's entrance from NXT the other night. Some guys should just be left alone to do what they do, especially when it's already working.

Lol forgot about him.

But still - Mizdow is red hot now.

Oh he is red hot. I'm just saying simply having Money in the Bank doesn't really guarantee anything in regards to Seth Rollins. He could have a Ziggler-esque run then not get close to that again, or he could be like Punk, get a title out of the briefcase, then explode and turn red hot down the road.

Wasn't he fired right after the movie he was in was released? I remember him coming back and being in a 10 man tag match, then was gone.

Raw this week. I like Jericho, but it's pretty uninspiring. Sick of the tag and 6 man tags just putting faces together against heels because it's 'good vs evil'. You can have a weeks break for some fueds, it could strengthen the fued, rather than weaken it.

I thought Lesnar actually got a pretty good pop considering he walked in without the title, F5'ed Jericho then left again.

I enjoyed The New Day's little promo but they're still a bit meh. I'd like to see Kofi and Woods in the tag and Big E just by himself for a bit.

Best highlight of the night was Lawler talking about Big E's sweat problems 'I got a sweater for christmas last year... I wanted a moaner or a screamer but all I got was a sweater' hahaha

On a very positive note, in the 2 nights that Reigns has been back, he's delivered the Superman Punch 3 times and not cocked his arm once. He did holster it though so not out of the woods yet.

Haha, yeah I will forever have that awkward "live via satellite" one etched in my brain whenever I see it.

Seeing Roman decl..decl..declare his intentions for the Royal Rumble at TLC was also awkward. Feel sorry for the guy. Will be interesting to see if the crowd revolt against him for the obvious winner is obvious thing like the last couple of years (Batista & Cena).

And if they're really gonna go with the Roman as RR winner route, a part of me would like to see Rollins MITB his way to the title in a douchey heel way (over Cena preferably, but over Lesnar would be cool too), and then get Ambrose somehow into the mix for a 3-way SHIELD match for the title.
Of course that means another 3-way title match at consecutive Manias, but would be totally fresh faces (and particularly no Cena) which I reckon the crowd would dig.
Don't care if it's TOO SOON, or NOT ENOUGH STARPOWER. That'd be making stars out of all three if done right (of course WWE doing stuff right is a lottery).




FYI, if you haven't already seen it, check out wrestlingwithtext.com (funny wrestling gifs like the above one) for a great way to watch a show without having to watch the show.

I had the same thought, wouldn't even mind if they did Rollins cashing in at WM. I've gotten a bit bored of the crowd pleasing ending at WM and if Reigns beats Lesnar, having Rollins cashing in would be a great way to end WM on a different note.

As for Ambrose, as soon as Rollins/Reigns start feuding about who was the dominant force in Shield, it wouldn't be hard for Ambrose to insert himself into the mix.

Ambrose for me has been the pick of The Shield members as a single, but he has been so poorly booked since Reigns started making overtones of a return that he is rapidly losing momentum.

True.

But creative seem pretty high on Rollins (as they should be), so hopefully he gets a title shot.

Yup, because glamour boy Randy decided he didn't like the way Kennedy delivered a bump during that match.Apparently Cena had a complaint about him to that tune before his injury too.
