Does WWE even understand the concept of foreshadowing?

You must really hate her
When's the last time we got background video packages for anyone on the main roster.

Bryan has another 12 or so doctors to get endorsements from before Maroon will so much as his answer his calls to tell him "no" again.
Does Triple H's workout regimen count?

Emma was the last Diva callup I had hope for, and holy god did they ever fuck that one up
I have hope for Bayley, but this time I'm expecting them to fuck it up. All I hope is it's only minor and that if not, they just get it out of the way so it can finally put the nail in the division's coffin.
Seriously, if they fuck up Bayley, I don't see how anybody has hope for women's wrestling in WWE ever again

Fuck good point. I did actually watch that one and all, it was pretty great.

In the end I have no idea whether the Divas Revolution branding helped or hurt. I think the big problem is that change in the division really does take time to build and people were not receptive to the idea that they were giving themselves credit for changing it before they actually changed it. Not to mention that they certainly haven't sustained anything - they've booked exactly one sensible feud.
I still have this nonsensical expectation that Enzo and Cass are coming up before Mania even happens. My expectation is probably going to be crushed by the sight of the Usos standing tall over the lifeless bodies of the New Day at WrestleMania.

ed: ^^ If the branding of it being a "revolution" didn't hurt, Steph taking on-air responsibility for it certainly didn't help. There was maybe 3 weeks when there was actual hope, but when it became nonstop tag nonsense the air died out like a balloon was popped.
Gonna be Bryan chants all night regardless, between that and commentary if you're watching have your mute buttons ready
Finn's the one guy I will absolutely go on record saying isn't getting better treatment on the main roster than he is at NXT. On the fan side: Main roster fans will get sick of that entrance by the end of his first month and the Demon entrance by its second or third use. On the in-ring side: He's absolutely fighting at least one Wyatt, and that's a death sentence in 2016.
Speaking of: think of the boos that will come if the Wyatts prevent Brock from winning the FastLane main event and fans realize that's a Mania match

You forgot Enzo and Cass.
Balor's success is going to depend on how far they go with the Bullet Club guys on the main roster. For that to be a credible stable in WWE it needs more members than just Balor, Anderson, and Gallows.
Maybe AJ joins back in.
More like bitter Jericho gets jealous of AJ or something like that. That's what I'd do anyway.

Or Jericho is a condescending dick to AJ.

It's a stable of outsiders. You know, like outcasts. Socially.
Heel Jericho is going over at FastLane through cheating, I'm pretty sure. I don't know if the turn happens before then or after that but they've spent way too much time on the angle for it to mean nothing.
You mean they're radicalz?

So they really are planning for Braun to have a singles match at Wrestlemania. Holy crap...it's going to be worse than crap.
Jericho came out to save his two new bffs from The New Day yesterday after Raw ended though (but maybe that's why it was kept off air)

Will be fun to see if Braunny the Strowman can top this masterpiece of a Taker Mania match...

You can't go around informing people of the internet. Certainly not an internet where you can complain about stuff... WWE stuff.
Might as well count election night as a football game. At least this was the only one on a Monday.

Not surprising in the least. Saw the YouTube clips of last night and other than the Ambrose promo in the beginning and the Miz TV segment, everything else was horrendous.
If I recall correctly during the Wyatt/Cena feud there wasn't any mention of Wyatts costing Cena the world title at Royal Rumble but they mentioned the Wyatts interfering in the chamber match. So I'm expecting the Wyatts to interfere at Fastlane and WWE to use that as the catalyst of the feud despite Rumble being the actual starting point.

This is factually true.
I'm still reeling about how easily the authority handed Reigns a rematch, that only makes sense if this is part of a master plan to divide and conquer hence the Jannety speech Steph made on Raw.

He's a big looking dude. And look how strong he is as he lifts Undertaker's WrestleMania opponent up on his shoulders with ONE HAND...

I wouldn't be surprised at either of them winning at Fastlane. I think the build points to Ambrose more than people seem to think thoug.

To me Becky Lynch is Bayley, but in a different way and I feel like she's not getting over at all (to me at least). I think the recent Charolette stuff helped, but she's got the same goofy underdog approach.

Dean and Roman get a tie at Fastlane, either by trying to pin and submit Brock at the same time or a countout. Triple H agrees to face them both, but then a new challenger appears, making it a fatal 4 way.

But he is not that strong.
