Nobody goes anywhere on WWE except into the midcard, booked to be just as good as anyone else not named Cena, Undertaker, HHH or Lesnar.
Blah. Seth Rollins has been champ for 6+ months Owens, New Day & Charlotte are champs. And I'm 90% sure either Balor or Joe are answering Cena's open challenge at the PPV
Seriously, you are a fool. He has the belt but keeps getting beat. Having the belt isn't the same as getting over as a top guy. He even got **** on by HBK on RAW. Stop posting about wrestling mate, you don't know jack ****.
Seth Rollins beat Ryback on RAW, that was his first televised victory since September 8. Let that sink in, the WWE Champ, the best wrestler in the world, lost every match for over a month. He's also been losing to Cena at basically every live event. Way to book your champ.
He's been over as a top guy for two years. He carried RAW for the entire year Bryan was hurt and Lesnar was defending the title once every 4-6 months. He most certainly is over, walking out of WM as champ is all the proof you need. I don't care if he is losing non-title matches on TV. That means nothing. Every heel champion in the history of wrestling has done the chicken**** routine. The idea that he can be beat on a PPV is what gets people to pay to "hopefully see it"
And say what you will like an *******. Heel CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Triple H, Eddie Guerrero, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, etc have all played chicken**** roles as champion. No one remembers that CM Punk was losing matches to Ryback and had to introduce The Shield as his protection just to weasel his way through it, before eventually dropping the title to the Rock. They only remember he held the title 350+ days. It didn't hurt CM Punk at all as a top guy, and all he did was go on too have the biggest match of his career against The Undertaker and Rock/Cena made that one of the biggest WM buys ever. I can't even remember one epic match he had as champion after winning it from Cena in that classic. Rollins won it from Lesnar and has had two top matches with Cena, a really great program with Ambrose, pretty good programs with Reigns & Orton, and had clean win successful title defenses on TV in pure classics with Neville, Cesaro & Ziggler. And got 100% from Sting in a match that was much better than I expected. Rollins makes the title legit. Him trying to help put over Reigns & Ambrose. Just last week on RAW and give Ryback a showcase match too try and help him. It is good business. I think it is a slowburn to a Rollins face turn and eventual Shield reunion.
I agree Seth Rollins is a cowardly p***y who is a disgrace to be the champion of WWE. He can't win a single game without some form of cheating. He is a no talented hack holding back other way more talented wrestlers like Reigns, Ambrose, even Cesaro. Nothing without the authority saving his a$$ over several months
lmao, yall are some fools. I think Scolalist is a little too optimistic with his opinions on wrestling, but he knows his stuff. Seth Rollins is a wrestling God, and he deserves to be the top guy. He even retweeted this earlier this month: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">I get it. <a href="https://twitter.com/WWERollins">@WWERollins</a> is the champ that, no matter what happens, lifts his title and yells "Scoreboard" @ the end of the night. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AndStill?src=hash">#AndStill</a></p>— Lightning BC (@Lightnin87) <a href="https://twitter.com/Lightnin87/status/653788131540488192">October 13, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Also, it's exciting not knowing who will answer the open challenge this weekend. With Cena taking time off, he should be dropping the belt to whoever answers the challenge. It could be Kofi, Samoa Joe, Finn Balor, or even Dean Ambrose (his match is cancelled for HIAC). I wanted it to be Tyler Breeze, but I like that he jumped into a feud with Dolph right away. Then of course you always have the rumors of the challenger being Spoiler Carlito or Kurt Angle.
Predicting that someone is going nowhere on the main roster in WWE isn't much of a stretch; particularly Breeze, who's been groomed to be a heel that loses all the time, and makes the other guy look great (kind of like Dolph Ziggler was...). I speak only for myself, but Tyler Breeze works for me because he completely commits to the gimmick, and that's something that's been apparent since his repackaging. It's a character born out of desperation, the last shot of a guy who was going to be future endeavored, and he absolutely gives it everything he has. I see a guy who has worked his ass off to add layers to a character that was an entrance, a cell-phone, and a (still) weak finisher. He didn't come in with massive indie cred, or a flashy moveset, or a hot-shot win. He built his way up by taking a gimmick that in no way should work, and made it entertaining. That journey, the way you can watch a character that grows, is one of the best parts of NXT. Baron Corbin went from :30 matches and a flaccid feud with heel Bull Dempsey to being arguably the top heel in the promotion. Dana Brooke is well on her way from being "just another pretty face who can't wrestle" to this weirdly compelling package of insecurity, mispronounciations and (intentionally?) bad makeup. On the main roster, everyone is slotted into their spots, and hardly anyone ever changes. It's the same moves, the same matchups, the same distraction/walkout/disqualification finishes. Is it any secret why the New Day is the best thing on the show right now, because you feel the upward momentum for them, because they're going to have a new taunt, because it doesn't yet feel like they've hit their ceiling, and you're intrigued for the potential. Is it any secret why the US Open challenge is the second best thing, because you're guaranteed a new matchup and whomever eventually takes the title off of Cena is undoubtedly the next guy due for a big push. It's what the Money in the Bank briefcase used to be, or the old Intercontinental Championship. It's not a good sign when you're smaller than your valet, and you make Ziggler look tall. But the gimmick is so easy to book; gets the IC strap in a 3-way where the champion doesn't get pinned, belt gets fur accessorized, give him some pre-tapes from "the seasonal residence", let Summer help him win by cheating, have him tape a music video, let an uggo beat him eventually and have him settle into the solid upper-middle card as the guy who rehabs Cena Victims and makes new babyfaces look like a million bucks for the next 5 years. Yay Breezus.
The selfies being synced to the titantron was awesome. Breeze pretty much traded wins on NXT, him doing so on WWE TV is fine
So, Eva Marie challenged Bayley for the Women's title at the NXT tapings. There have been rumors of this, but apparently this is actually happening. I don't think she will win, it seems like it would be the biggest slap in the face to everything that has made NXT so popular. But this is the WWE,nothing would surprise me. Giving her the belt would be the single biggest statement the company could make on what they really feel about women's wrestling. The challenge is set to air in late November, which means this very well may be Bayley's opponent in London.
it'll be on the weekly show I'm sure. Doubt they give Eva Marie a high profile title match in London. Even though she is the best women's heel in NXT. And it drives all the smart marks insane that she would be champion. Athena Reese debuts in two weeks on NXT. Asuka's kicking ass. Billie Kay & Peyton Royce have gotten characters, entrance music and have pre-recorded promos airing as they await their opponents. All is fine
How can you guys not appreciate the wrestling genius that is Seth Rollins? And whoever said he got **** on by HBK doesn't get it... the point is that he was in the ring with HBK. Seth Rollins matches are main event level matches every night! Just watch he will steal the show with Kane at HIAC.
I'd lose my **** if HBK had one more WM match vs Rollins Rollins really is HBK 2. He's that damn good at everything
