Watch the Ziggler Harper match. Ignore everything else.
Well... Atleast Ziggler's IC reign has been a bit of a success.

Looks like D-Bry was writing his book while RAW was on. Maybe we should all take a cue from him and write our books too.
BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!

I don't think the person that was apart of the worst feud of 2014 deserves anything but a push out the door.
How different was it from the 11 other matches they've had since October?

The Roman Empire is starting to crack, friends
The quality of the action tricked Cole into calling a Michinoku Driver a "Michinoku Driver".
Also it was a great fued ending match. Especially considering this was booked on RAW.

You could almost say he needs a Shield of some sort.

Well... you see... hm... Ziggler hit a super kick and Harper ignored it and hit him with a clothesline. There were enough super kicks to make the young bucks blush.
BIG RED, MAGGLE!

He's mid card over at best while getting better than Cena level booking for a year now. They are trying to force it too hard

He's in the main event or the match before.. they still don't know. But yeah, he's facing Lesnar for the Belt. Also, it's super unclear if you have a match that night if you can still be in the rumble or not. Or is the it just restricted to the champ and contender for the belt that night..? SOMEONE CALL TUNNEY.
With the way they are booking Roman its the only thing I can see happening.
Unless they plan on giving a main event spot to Ziggler/Ambrose/Cesaro or a part timer can you see them giving it to Reigns?
Why is he selling getting hurt to the big show and fandango?
Just fucking go out there and beat them up.

Raw had 3 good matches. Again. The same 3 good matches we've had countless times now. Although the kickout/no sell match was frustrating. They need to stop that.
Yep, top notch entertainment. No fucks given, just fun times.
They kinda had to once they went back to the already aged Connery. Worked out great for the viewers!

That's not a good sign, is it :/

In fairness, people would complain he's acting like Superman if he didn't sell. That's not the real problem though, it's just that he sucks.

BECAUSE THIS IS THE FUCKING WWE AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FUCKING BOOK SHIT ANYMORE AND FLUKE THEIR FUCKING WAY INTO SHIT THAT'S SOMEHOW GOOD. THEY HAVE A TEMPLATE FOR THEIR MAIN EVENT FACES AND THEY CAN'T CHANGE IT BECAUSE THEY SERVE THE WHIMS OF A SENILE OUT OF TOUCH 69 YEAR OLD MAN WHO THINKS DRESSING A LITTLE MAN IN A REINDEER COSTUME IS OSCAR LEVEL COMEDY SO UNTIL HE'S FUCKING DEAD THERE'S NO USE COMPLAINING BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOING TO GET ANY BETTER
STOP WATCHING RAW
His finisher is the Superman Punch.
Let him act like a fucking brick wall.
We should all go into Mania 31 not knowing who is gonna win.
Instead we are going in with Bork pulling a repeat of mania XX

HA I totally forgot about Bork at XX. That comparison is all too apt.

He wrestled ROMAN REIGNS in a bad match where Roman won via count out. It was so exciting the crowd chanted Boring, Roman Sucks, and Daniel Bryan.
I, uh, think this dude's got a point.

Such passion from the WWE Universe!
With that aim, I'd hate to see the aftermath of him pissing in a toilet bowl.
Dumb as Fuck
This shit makes me cringe. God damn, Ryback.
Hopefully he reads GAF and finally got the message.

Cena has been the top guy for 10 years. Starting when he was 27. None of the current dudes are going to be the main event guy. Certainly not Ambrose because of the kind of matches and character he has. Cesaro is too swiss. Ziggler is fine but too old.
They want a long term investment out of you. Roman is only 29, his move set isn't even all that high impact, a punch and a spear. No slams that involve him taking a bump with his opponent. Which means he'll be less susceptible to injuries.
Roman - 29 Movie star looks. Got the Milf and Gay demo on lock. Children will love anything the WWE tells them to love.
Ambrose- 29 Crazy shit in the past that could come back to haunt him physically. Crazy character not marketable to kids, not a good image for the company. Could play second fiddle to Roman. The Randy Orton to his John Cena, if you will.
Ziggler - 34 too old to get a long term investment out of him. Not that great on the mic
Cesaro - 33 too old to get a long term investment. Boring personality. Should be booked like a badass but isn't.

I don't understand the obsession with having One Guy. I know that's how McMahon likes it, but fuck what he likes.
Hogan did say that Vince would give him a match.....
Hogan-Cena mania for the belt?
means you only have to pay one guy

You would think, being how disgusted he is of what his father did, he'd have never done the One Guy thing, but that's what he's done since the day he bought the company.
The best thing to do at this point would be for Cena to win the title at the Rumble, then beat Roman clean at Mania to end this awful 2014-2015 season, and hopefully recover with news acts for 2015-2016. It's pretty much the only way to salvage the Mania main, and the future of the company.

"not marketable to kids", such a huge factor when all signs point to your audience being mostly men in their 30's
