if it's just Santa Clara that they locked down, it's not that big of a deal. There's a bunch of cities nearby, most notably San Jose, within easy transit and driving distance to Levi's Stadium. I'd imagine the Indy stuff will be in downtown SJ, but if Vince locked that down then maybe Oakland or San Francisco. If he locked down the whole Bay Area then holy shit.
He opted to leave, and I believe it was because of the travel. Of course he had some injuries with his neck, too.
Yup. Crowd would explode if after the match, Bryan kicked Cenas head off* and start a give no fucks attitude character.
*Not literally. The crowd pop would probably be louder if Cenas head flew into the cheap seats, but would probably stop when they realise you can't work a decapitation.**
**At least I'd hope they stopped.

IIRC, they wanted him to take time off for rehab but he did the Japan tour and signed with TNA ASAP.

Team Hell No was amazing, they had the best taped segments.

From the Observer:
Well, if this is all part of a storyline they got the outrage they wanted times a 1000. It does make sense with those Bryan tweets recently.
Also, with all this talks of quarter ratings and draws. Smackdown is doing pretty good now with no Cena and Orton on the show. Its being carried by Punk and Bryan. So where is his credit for that.

Don't steal this idea from me. I called this crossover gimmick first.
Incidentally, this isn't the first Roman Reigns idea I've called first. Back on December 9th...
WWE is walking a fine line with that shit. If they keep up this "storyline"
until after Mania, I can see fans spitting so much venom their way that they'll burn straight through the concrete floor at the Raw After Mania.
(It's not a storyline, it's real because fuck this company)
While I agree with you mainly on JBL last night's performance was just a worse version of the one King did in the 90's when he left mid sentence, got thrown out right away, came back and finished the sentence. Best comedy Rumble spot ever.
Also...I know I haven't been around all day or last night but I actually really enjoyed the Rumble! I liked every match! The only thing I'd change would be to make the Rumble 40 man again.
EC is going to be fun as hell.

Thanks for the info on the Cena Orton match last night.
Its my dream that these two get booed until management does something.

You don't have a guy fucking job clean like he did last night if he's supposed to be held down by the machine. He hasn't won a match all year.

I thought it was the bassist for Metallica.
This far outweighs Aiii and I's creepin
Wait, so this could all be a work to rile up fans, so they support Bryan?
So, the WWE realized that screwing over Bryan just makes him more popular? A guy like Mick Foley, Daniel Bryan, and a bunch of other "legends" who rely on the WWE for their money calling them out was a work? Joey Styles, who runs WWE.com, pointing out that BBC article was also a work?
This was all a work to get the easily riled up IWC going even more?
LOL!!!!
A WWE official should have tweeted about how disgusted he was with the WWE, and how he would now exclusively watch New Japan Pro Wrestling.
NEW JAPAN PRO WRESTLING!!!!! LOL!!!!!

That is a fucking dangerous game to be playing unless the payoff is a mania title shot and victory. Which cannot happen now that Batista has won the Rumble.

Don't worry, halfway thru a dead RAW, Diva gifs will flood this board.
When you're as pretty as Reigns we'll mark out over you.
The GF went crazy on that one. Even i went a little bit crazy
there's like 3 pages of kane abs

Those tattoos ruin everything.
Yeah it is but anything happens its not till after WrestleMania because Extreme rules is in Seattle Washington.
If Daniel Bryan is not getting a title shot and the Main Event is Orton vs Batista again get ready for insanity from that crowd.
You're acting like title shots haven't changed between the Rumble and Mania.
Or that there isn't a ppv where champions change all the time between Mania.
Or that they aren't setting up the D-Bry rages against the machine angle as a giant one post mania that could last an entire year.
He's an underdog people. The chase is always more exciting. He'll get his due and I'm sure the people in back aren't ignoring him any more. They haven't been for awhile; he headlines almost every single RAW.
As there should be.
