July Wrasslin |OT| The Game, The Kane, The Pain, and The Insane (AJ)

The brand doesn't matter. Santino and Tensai are already in and Zack Ryder, Jack Swagger, and David Otunga had qualifying matches.

Good point, yet the cases are still locked to a single brand it seems, a minor shame as I would love to see someone cash in and win only to then get cashed in on by the other guy, it would be like 24/7 Hardcore title for the briefest of moments.

I wonder if Tensei will bust out some awesome tricks in this match, he's gotta mist someone off the ladder at least.
 

Aiii

So not worth it

The cases are tied to the belts, they're named after hem now, not the brands.

Split is done.

Do you think in 2031, the WWE wrestlers will be jobbing to guys from today as part of their 2,000 episode celebration?

Amazing Red had to be one of the most wasted talents out there. The guy could do so much but just wasn't given a real opportunity.

He trained Rosita. His legacy will live on through her porn shoots ^_^

Cena/Punk-like comedy.

No split, which is why there's no need for both the World and WWE titles. One would be worthwhile and would actually make it more important - more challengers to fight for it instead of rag-tagging some mid card guy who got no push and is just randomly there because the other heel is out at the moment.

Can't wait for the team up of Goat face and Dolphin boy, animal powers unite!

If this did happen you know WWE would go for a Sheamus/Cena face match showdown for historic unification.
And of course Cena wins.

Just look at the WHC as the IC belt of 2012, problem solved I'd reckon.

It can't be just me being old fashioned. I would much prefer them to go the route of one world title, keep the IC title, tag belts, and bring in the lightweight or bring in WCW's cruiserweight. Soon enough I'm sure they'll have some nice high flyers in there from FCW/NXT. It would give Bourne, Sin Cara, Kidd, Hunico, etc. some air time and stories (kidding, we know WWE doesn't do that).

The only reason we needed the extra title belt was because the rosters were too big, now that's hardly the case at all with the roster stretched thin and filled with jobbers (never forget this years Rumble!). So yeah I would have no qualms about cutting down the main event belts back to just the WWE, would make the title actually seem more worthwhile.

Just thinking about all these solid lower card wrestlers makes me wonder just how the hell haven't WWE capitalised on a tag team division rebirth.

The one problem with having the WWE belt over the WHC title is I don't really want to see the Big Gold Belt retired, and while the WWE title should be the main one, I couldn't stand seeing that ugly-ass belt as the only World Title in WWE.

I agree, I love the way the WHC looks, the current WWE title is dreck. I miss the undisputed title, it was so short lived.

A tag division is probably the easiest thing to get going in all of pro wrestling. Give guys a team name, give em unique gear, let them fight for the titles. That's it. It's also the easiest match to get over with crowds. 4 people at all times so the spots are bigger, instant pop with hot tags, tag team finishers, etc. Every time someone gets interviewed and says "Yeah, rebuilding the tag division's gonna take some time" I just shake my head and face palm. You have 4, soon to be 5, hours of TV per week and can't build a tag division with all the low card wrestlers at your disposal?

We could probably make a tag team division from the current roster complete with team names and some small gimmicks in like 15 minutes, I miss rooting for a chosen team, 2000 seems so long ago now.

So odds are that like I thought they will add more wrestlers to that match, Rey and Orton surely once they get off their suspensions (assuming Orton is off in time and not heavily reprimanded....heh Orton actually getting punished, hilarious!).

Seen as there are 3 heels and 1 face - we can expect 2 more faces my bet HBK and Mick Foley.

Did Foley say he had one more big bump/match left in him? I would mark out for this.
Then by upset when I realise how much pain he's in just getting up the ladder in this modern day.

Good list.... but the diamond cutter is so far above the rko it's not even funny.

It's a BANG! vs. a "falling soft on your matress"

Fucking tag team match...... creatively bankrupt.

When are we getting a good storyline again? Sigh.
Good storylines take effort, bro.
No time to squeeze those into a short week with only 6 hours of original WWE programming.

Incidentally, this tag team match features D.Brine's first WWE television opponent (Cena), his first NXT television opponent (Jericho) and D.Brine's long-time indy scene rival (Punk).

And I'm sure AJ will factor in somewhere here as well. Perhaps Cena will call her a HOESKI and make her cry. He's good at making women cry.
