I mean he basically dominated them and got caught by a roll-up when Dean distracted him. Its really not that big of a deal. I think this is a great weasle act that will pay-off big time for the person that beats him for the title. Besides, its not likely he is going to lose this Sunday anyway.

Is it me or that the Owens powerbomb looked badly executed tonight? Meaning Neville did all the work on the fall?

DM you going to the house show in a couple of Weeks? WWE and EDC in same weekend. Dang!!
Welcome to modern day heel booking, brehs. Only difference between Rollins' current reign and the one Orton had in 2013-14 is that Rollins doesn't have the credibility of 12 world title reigns to carry him through shit booking.
He'll be fine in the long run because the company is obviously committed to him but right now he's just the victim of standard heel writing in 2015.
Make sure you have a sign that says Roman needs to work a match with New Jack to get over.
Did Owens get ANOTHER new shirt?
I'll play Natural Born Killers on my boombox.

Sounds like the best one is coming to your area...even if you have to suffer through a Dean match.
He was a failure from the start though.

I agree it still sounds like a good show to attend.

Ambrose is only relevant today because of The Shield and he can thank Roman for his 4 week run.
He was the focus of his feuds. As opposed to The Authority(w. Seth Rollins) vs Dean Ambrose or The Authority(w. Seth Rollins) vs Roman Reigns.
For some reason it just clicked with me that they have a chance of making Wyatt the anti-Taker. Just quickly build him up for his Mania loss and have him start a losing streak that he tries to break every year.

All three of them are only relevant because of the Shield
You honestly think this storyline is The Authority vs. Dean Ambrose?
They've been building up Rollins vs. The Authority since Wrestlemania.

The only reason ANY of them are over is because of The Shield. Roman would have had to have been in NXT for at least another year without having two experienced indie guys to cover up his weaknesses, and doing long promos with The Shield is the only reason Rollins went from a shitty CM Punk knockoff to the best chickenshit opportunist since Edge. Ambrose was the only one who would maybe have had a shot at getting over on his own merits, because he at least is pretty comfortable with a microphone in his hands.
Also, Wyatt is honestly fine. WWE is never going to build up anybody to the level of Undertaker again because their business model revolves around the company being way bigger than any of its stars, but crowds still seem to enjoy Wyatt even with his promos because even if the content doesn't go anywhere, he's still good at delivering them.
Having a hot shot feud with Kane isn't building up 'Rollins vs The Authority.' Brock will kill Rollins and take his title, Triple H will find someone else who's actually over as a heel to 'represent the authority' because Triple H and Stephanie can't bear to be off TV and Rollins will go to feud with Kofi Kingston or Dolph Ziggler for the IC title, never to touch the main event again.
Ambrose will be released and Roman will go do movies.
Yet Reigns is the only one who still wears shield gear, shield theme, and shield entrance.
That means he should be the new Hulk Hogan by now

I used to think that neckbreaker should be his WWE finisher, but they've built up the Papa Powerbomb so well (one pointless Cena kickout aside) that I've been converted.
So you're a joke poster now?
Why am I a joke poster but Yeezus saying Bray was a failure from the start isn't?

Its really funny to me that they try to sell Nikki Bella as attractive when she's literally the least attractive female on-camera talent they employ.

I think Triple H and Steph WANT to be off TV, but nobody can get over enough anymore to make it worth WWE's time to take two established Attitude Era stars off the show.
Ambrose isn't gonna get released, though. That's just silly. Fucking Zack Ryder still works there, for God's sake.
Also, Angry Grimace, I must respectfully disagree. Nikki Bella has been in hubba hubba territory since Summerslam, as putting on a little weight has done wonders for her.
So you and Yeezus are joke posters now?

Let's not get personal.
Bray is terrible.
Bray is terrible.
Yeah, they are. Either that or they are out of touch.
Friend, no one dislikes Bray Wyatt more than I do but as far as his career goes, he isn't in a bad spot. Zack Ryder is in a bad spot, Adam Rose is in a bad spot.
Bray might not be the next Undertaker but he could be the next Kane and that's not really a bad place to be in the grand scheme.
just skip to r-trizzle

Bray Wyatt delivers his promos well regardless of content, has a distinctive look, and is a pretty decent wrestler for a bigger guy trained only in WWE style. "Terrible" is just silly.
He's the only non-Brock who's got something going on.
Even Owens........cuts Randy Orton......esque promos. I try to get behind Sheamus and then he has stuff like the IC chamber match and wrestles Orton again and I just want him to fuck off instantly again.
Sheamus is money as a heel. Orton as a face sucks when they have Ambrose playing the same type of face.
Edit: Rtruth has been entertaining since March.

I literally LOL when Kane told Truth to buzz off
That O'Reilly/KUSHIDA match was really good. Better than the juniors division has been in a LONG time, but it's not good enough to make up for the rest of that BOSJ.
And it's still not as good as any of the best junior stuff out of AJPW, NOAH, and maybe even Zero-1.
Just watch the opening, and the main event and rtruth part and call it a day.
Also, I was watching some WWF 2001 PPVs and man Brothers of Destruction are TERRIBLE. Like the two combined form such a bad team that just fucks up all the matches they're in. The booking is so awful for all their opponents because every single Brothers of Destruction match is about 'got to make Brothers of Destruction look stronk.' They fucking no sell everyone because you can tell that they're saying 'no, no, no main eventers. don't sell for these tag team shmucks. You're better than them and the only way we'll have them go over you is sheer luck. They're below you.' They're worse than LOD for no-selling.
What a dark and awful stain on the WWF's tag division of that era.

Orton knows he's going to spend the next few years putting over HHH's NXT pet projects and is likely half assing it out of sheer boredom.

Rollins is practically guaranteed a clean win on Sunday.
