I'm gonna try this WWE RAW thing tonight. Seems interesting.
I'm not staying up for TLC build up. Will stay up for Royal Rumble build up though!

Notice who Reks called a good guy? it was Triple G himself of course, more compelling evidence that Kane is a locker room hero.
Whatever happened to Swags, I swear we saw him backstage on Raw with a brand new man beard, what happened with that?

That's assuming Nikki is going to stay with John. Maybe he can hold this relationship.
I'm conflicted on it myself. I'll probably watch the opening segment and the end. Just want to see The Shield and I'll find the Daniel Bryan stuff afterwards.

Evidence? Of what, Nikki/Cena? or Bryan/Brie?
Either way:
Who's that other dork??

Daniel Bryan.
Judging by Smackdown, as well as this weekend's house show reports, they're moving Hell No in a new direction where they're now a more cohesive unit as a team. Seems like their ambush by the Shield was supposed to be the start.
Probably a good thing, Bryan is best when he's always evolving and never standing still.

About time, the current gimmick hasn't been all that funny for a while now.
Nailed it.

If Team Hell No's new direction means we can get Rollins/Ambrose vs. Hell No for TLC, I'm game.
Makes too much sense though

No reason why they should be on a PPV yet, they've done nothing notable.
Or any reason they should enter a feud with Team Hell No when they're first building to a PPV to reveal their association with Heyman.

They're going to need some really good booking to fix what screwup it was to have them say they fight injustice and all that shit - yet beat down Ryback, then Santino, then Hell No - I mean there's really no rhyme or reason to it, and that sucks, because you can't completely get behind that motivation if it doesn't make any goddamn sense.
I know you guys probably think I'm being unnecessarily unfair to them, but I think the booking and having them beat down a trio of very unrelated performers in every way was a foolish move when trying to explain their motivation, and will cause them problems in the future.
The Kane one seemed justified going what what they said their idea of justice was, he won a public poll to face Punk, not because he was "deserving". Beating down Bryan was then self-defense, technically.
But they are a heel group, so they're obviously going to be hypocritical at some points.

It's not so much that they're liars, I just can't take their motivation seriously. That's like saying "I will take your title!" as a heel and having no interest. (cena has done this.)

Soooo happy to see D-Bry's 'turn' to seriousness (or just not a joke character) again. I love him no matter what but to be honest I got sick of him being Santino #2 type character awhile ago.
The fact that he is yes'ing again and is happy doing it is the best part, makes me happy too. FINALLY!

Guys any hints come out regarding what's going to happen at tonight's raw?
Because that's early morning for me and I have to decide whether to get up on time.

I missed this. When/where was this?
Fuck that. I don't want to root for The Ryback.

- Former WWE Wrestler Tyler Reks recently posted the following on Twitter about issues he had with John Cena while working for the company
"Anyone want to know what top guy forced me to stop using the burning hammer - even after it appeared on SD/RAW and PPV's? ... 1st house show loop, Cena asks pulls me aside, degrades me like I'm 10 years & tells me if I use it again I'd me fired. He yelled at me & said, 'Who gave u permission to use that'? Apparently he hadn't been watching the product 4 the last 8 months... Or perhaps how he stole our idea to get fired, use social media to get over, & run in from the crowd (Given to Miz & Truth)... I still have the promo DVD our idea was burned onto when Cena supposedly helped us with the idea - then lied & said it wasn't stolen later."
He was asked by a follower about Alex Riley and his lack of push, and he responded with the following
Riley? Great guy - talented. Would be over as all hell if a certain someone wasn't holding him down..."
Pwinsider.com reported earlier this year that Riley's push came to an end after a backstage confrontation with Cena with the story being that Riley didn't show "proper respect" to Cena, which was basically "acting like a normal human being instead of acting subservient to Cena."

So is there anything special about the Roman guy or is he just "a big guy"?
Ambrose and Rollins I know of but I havent seen that guy before he showed up on RAW.

Reigns is going to be the breakout star of the three.
Maybe if his character wasn't a lazy Stargate ripoff, well after stargates height of popularity he would have got over.
Actually there is:
- Ryback- unfairly getting another title shot
- Kane - Because the poll was fixed, D.Bryan and went on twitter to say so,
- D.Bryan - only was attacked when he attacked Rollins
- Santino - for getting more air time. When others don't...
So yep they are fixing injustice.

Eh? But Santino deserves air time!
I could see the Kane beatdown 'injustice' direction - if it was starting to tease a Hell No breakup, but they seem stronger than ever.

You're a good man.
In regards to current discussion, Reigns has a shot of being the breakout. He's samoan (rosie's brother specificially) and he has a great look. If he can be a decent/good wrestler and can carry himself on the mike (which is his biggest weakness atm) then he can be a big star. If he can't speak, he can still get a decent run with a manager/mouthpiece. Ambrose already has buzz and is getting more since he's the most attention grabbing. Rollins is arguably the best wrestler of the Shield and one of the best in WWE, but he too has some promo work to get through. I've only seen him as a face, but i was told his heel run in ROH was good. Did he cut any solid promos during that time?
Also on a side tangent. It would probably be too costly but wouldn't it be cool if Chikara had a Nu52 style reboot with new/modified costumes? It would be another fun comic book nod.
That spear was better than Edge's running hug - so there is that...
