I could make so many Vince McMahon jokes about how he'd book(if he had them both) that but I'll keep my mouth shut.
All of them?
He can't get away with it...

I hear Randy Orton's available.
Randy Orton is too old to be Randy Orton. He could be HHH...but Miz is my HHH in this dream scenario.

I approve of this Bayley Club.
I'd bury my face deep in there.

It depends on the heel, the story/gimmick and position on the card though, you generally shouldn't have a feud where the heel loses half the time in the feud, especially with clean pinfalls, you usually build up to the face overcoming the heel and whatever antics he pulls. You got a heel like the Miz, no he doesn't need a strong string of wins, his mouth and being so irritating is enough to carry him but again, we know he's probably going to lose so there's not much suspense in his matches unless you're the guy he's working with and whether he's going to catch you or not.
Same problem with how title holders lose far too frequently than they should. It's still one of those issues with 50/50 booking and no jobbers for guys to build themselves either up or back up, few really get built up anymore, ideally you'd build up a face and a heel and at some point they clash. Yeah, it's scripted but there's still a need of believably and the only one that really has it anymore is probably Brock.
Really hope he gets Sheamus' "you look stupid" chants with that dumbass hair.

Why would they have him do a public retirement speech if they were planning on releasing him to go make money for other wrestling promotions after having headlined a Wrestlemania? The whole thing is odd to me. I somewhow don't buy that the guy is actually going to be on the show.

I dunno but regardless, I do wonder if we might get Pipebomb 2.0 tomorrow night as a result of all this shit.

Thinking about Daniel Bryan. He is the biggest face in the company. The moment he comes back, he will be at the top - over Roman. Everyone will be focused on DB that no other face will matter. Does WWE want him back RIGHT NOW before Wrestlemania? I would honesty see him coming back the night after Wrestlemania so the storylines will stay intact.
You can joke and say that the storylines don't truly matter right now but DB coming back now will make anything that Roman does pointless. Does Vince really want that?

It's true. My imaginary sources comfirmed it

Everyone can eat their fucking hearts out. I told you all. You all can choose to be apart of this or against it.
It's another point towards the "Roman actually isn't the guy" theory.

"Possible WM 32 role" = maybe guest refereeing something, at best. The guy is never wrestling for WWE again, unless their lawyers all suddenly became idiots. They took away Seth's perfectly safe finisher, erased it from history even, just to prove that they were "serious about preventing concussions", so why would they let a guy wrestle who has a history of dozens of undiagnosed concussions and who has brazenly defied their wishes for him to wrestle a safer style in the past?

Bryan is going to give Flair the big knee tomorrow. Thus Hunter gets angry and attacks him. This leads to him dethroning Hunter at WM 32. As for Roman? Who cares.
Of course. That's the whole reason why Vince keeps telling his carny Doctor not to clear Bryan.
Everyone makes this point but why wouldn't they capitalise on that? Have they not learnt that Roman isn't working?
If they were smart they'd strap a rocket to him right now. Hell, put him up against a heel Roman.
ok, lets say they give Bryan the OK to come back
what are the chances they try to go all out and turn him mega heel to feed to Roman? Make him a corporate HHH guy and do all kinds of messed up stuff in an attempt to get the fans behind Roman?
they cant be dumb enough to think something like that would ever work

Bryan refs ME and raises Roman's hand to end the show? It's almost too plausible sounding.

If they turn him heel in Seattle, just fucking fire him

Because VINCE SIMPLY DOESN'T WANT BRYAN TO BE THAT GUY. Just like Braun, if Vince wants him to be that guy then he will be that guy and you all will like it. Roman is Vince's new eye candy and until he gets injured then he'll be that guy.

The fans would destroy Roman even more imo
Because the fans love him and won't boo him but they're totally wrong. Roman is a boo magnet, you can put him with Austin, Hogan, The Rock, Bryan, and CM Punk at the end raising all of his hands and he'll still get booed. But the thing is, they'll say Bryan was responsible for him being booed.

McMahon will never let Daniel Bryan wrestle again as long as they are pushing Roman Reigns as their top face. It just won't happen.

Oh it's true, it's damn trueCan Vince really be that stupid though?
Oh.
Such a shame. I'd like to think that maybe this company will be better after Vince McMahon is dead, but the fact is, it's gonna get taken over by his idiotic daughter and his doofus son-in-law and the rest of his stupid family.

Yeah, if you're ever asking "is WWE really that stupid", remember the first Rumble in 3 years they didn't manage to get ended with boos because of a fuckup they made
ended with World Champ HHH
I'll never fail to point out how a bunch of you laughed off reports of him winning the Rumble being planned before Seth went down as bullshit months ago. The one thing that should by all rights have obviously been bullshit was planned all along. The Future Ruler Of WWE
