Have a couple of spots where Brock eliminates someone, and then slides under the ropes to beat his ass for another 30 secs because he's bored while waiting for the next dude.

Sure! I have nothing against any of those guys, but we all know how WWE is going to book this. 2 minute squash matches. Forgotten the next week. that's why I can't get excited for any of the d-tier guys scheduled for this tournament. Replace them with some guys a little higher up the totem pole and not only is the tournament more believable, but we'd probably get some better matches, too.

Kofi and Big E are the only guys I think are missing tbh. Then again some wrestlers have been off WWE tv for so long, I don't remember who's on the roster. But you could bring in mystery opponents like RVD, D'Lo, Billy Gunn, Ken Shamrock, Val Venis, X-Pac, Bobby Lesnar, etc
Not to brag, but I really think my bullshit bracket that I pulled out of my ass in 10 minutes is not only infinitely more interesting but also does a better job at hiding the shallow ass talent pool they have going at the moment.
why the fuck is Stardust, Kalisto, Tidus and Miz in this bracket? What have they done in the past year that tells me they deserve to be anywhere near the title picture? They barely have televised matches, let alone wins. Where are the New Day? The Dudleys? You know, characters that are actually over? characters with wins? characters with TV time and are frequently in the main event of Raws? In the case of New Day, three young up and comers? If the issue is that they're tag team champs, then why are the IC and US champs involved? If the issue is breaking up tag teams, then why is Kalisto and Tidus involved? If the issue is "keeping them strong", well FUCKING SPOILER, everyone is taking a loss besides Reigns. Breeze is going to lose his first main roster match! Kalisto will lose his first match, I'm sure that will do wonders for the Latin American viewership. Please, can someone give me a reason why the new day is not involved in this tournament? It baffles me.
Guys does anyone really care who is in the bracket? Can we just not black bar the conversation about the bracket? Just don't post the results, the actual bracket is the tiniest spoiler ever.
The reason those people are in it is because the New Day are defending the tag belts and the Wyatts are in the Undertaker program.

I still think that match should be dropped and they should be in the tournament. That's where the money is on this show. If they aren't going to defend the US or IC title on the card, fuck the tag titles...

Crowd would cheer Heel Cena, though. Especially over Face Reigns.
Owens is the best option. Lots of storyline ties/reasons to do it, elevates the IC Title and Owens to new Mega Heel status. Takes heat off WWE for 'only pushing the muscle-bound idiots who can't do jack' with a guy carrying a keg everywhere as your Top Two Champions.
I think Owens wins the title at SS due to Authority interference. They've already set it up
also, Reigns is stripped of his #1 contendership for refusing to join the Authority at the beginning of RAW tonight
from the beginning with HHH granting Owens a match against Cena for the US Title. You have a zillion feuds to set up with Owens (conservative list off the top - Zayn, Itami, Balor, Cena, Reigns, Rollins, Rusev, Ambrose, Cesaro) - 3 of which would be perfect ways to bring NXT stars onto the main roster - and it would set up a future Lesnar / Owens match at some point as well.
After reading the spoilers for RAW, I kind of think the best option would be
Authority fuckery screws Ambrose out of his first round match, and Authority fuckery screws Reigns against ADR or Owens. This sets up Ambrose and Reigns chasing the Authority 2.0, and even builds towards a long-term story when Rollins returns.
One addendum - have the first three people out be The New Day, who starts cutting promos and throwing jobbers out till like #11 or so, where Lesnar comes out and proceeds to obliterate them. Have him set the record by one, just so you have the option of beating the record again at some point.
Wrestling Observer being a bunch of smelly haters, Something like Kane vs HHH absolutely fits seeing as that's the infamous Katie Vick saga.
The rest just seem like lacklustre feuds as opposed to truly dreadful, does anyone even remember Kane vs Big Daddy V? sounds more forgettable than anything else.

Okay Kane/Rey was a load of poop, Kane jobbing every PPV to Rey collapsing off the top rope with his pillow like cruiserweight impact was hard to watch.

Rumblr, an app that helps people find and engage in recreational fighting, is set for a test release Monday.
A beta trial version will go to the first 2,000 individuals who registered to use the app, and more than 78,000 people had shown an initial interest, per Alfred Ng of the New York Daily News.
While this might sound like a bit of a joke, the creators insist it's a serious proposition and that they have "substantial funding" to make a "Tinder for fighting" happen.
I have an HBK standee that was my mom's. It's just upstairs, collecting dust. I also have a display piece from around WM 13 or so that is HHH/HBK that came out of a Toys R Us. Why? Who knows.
