Only about an hour in but a really great RAW so far.. Neville beatdown by Owens, Owens beatdown by Ambrose Sasha and Becky in classic #4231 Kofi and Kalisto
The Rock said he would be making a featured appearance at Wrestlemania. I assume he is not fighting but good news since I will be there and the Rock was one of my faves back in the day.
Call it Christmas optimism, but I don't think he necessarily denied potentially fighting at mania. I'm not throwing him in my fantasy booking yet, but there's got to be more legends wrestling than just HHH and Taker, and even they're still speculative. I'm hoping this recent brutality streak from Owens is the start of a main event heel push. I've been inception'd by Sam Roberts, but an Owens - Lesnar matchup would be great to watch. Cena and Reigns did the staredown yesterday, but tough to call who would end up on the crowd's side. That crowd was kind of all over the place in a bad way yesterday. It looked like they legit pissed off Vince when they started to chant for DB and Punk.
Anyone catch WK10 this morning? It was my 1st NJPW show, and I'm hooked. Every match delivered and the last 3 will probably all be 5 stars.

This is one of the most unpredictable RR matches of all time. I doubt Reigns leaves as champ and it's probably Reigns/HHH at WM. Lesnar, Cena, Bray, Ambrose plus Reigns have to be the five strongest going in. Maybe Bryan comes back who knows. I'd like too see 2-3 NXT guys like Balor, Joe & Zayn in it. Owens/Neville & Becky/Charlotte were great and Usos/Rusev & Del Rio was really good the rest of that show was super eh. I do like the name of Social Outcasts as the new heel stable. Vince got a box of roids for Christmas. Heel Stables in WWE are all gold right now League of Nations The Wyatt Family New Day Team B.A.D. Cosmic Wasteland Social Outcasts
1. Reigns 2. Lesnar 3. Cena 4-7. Wyatt Family 8-10. New Day 11-14. League of Nations 15. Ambrose 16. Owens 17. Neville 18 & 19. Usos 20. Kalisto 21. Ziggler 22-25. Social Outcasts 26. Stardust 27. Jericho There is a lot there.
AJ Styles, Shisuke Nakamura & More Sign With WWE The Wrestling Observer now reports that AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura, Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson have all in fact signed with WWE. The site reports that the four stars gave their notice to NJPW booker Gedo this morning at Wrestle Kingdom 10. It isn’t known when they will be starting with WWE but as noted, Nakamaura won’t be leaving right away as he will drop the IWGP Intercontinental Title before he does. The site notes that Anderson was close to signing with TNA but when the WWE deal came around, he changed direction. New Japan has a one-year contract system which meant that their deals expired as of January. Nakamura, Anderson and Gallows will honor their committed Ring of Honor dates next month in Las Vegas. AJ Styles is said to be done with ROH moving forward.
WWE Bullet Club time! Let Balor turn heel (have him be the one that attacked Itami, most likely) and let him bring in some friends from Japan to be his heavies/protection.
Spoiler AJ is debuting in the rumble, Nakamura has to drop the title first but holy crap this is unreal, please give us Nakamura vs Bryan
Im sure they'd need a new name as NJPW isn't giving that up. Omega and the Bullet Club turned on Styles, Gallows & Anderson at the WrestleKingdom follow up show this morning. Kenny Omega took over leadership. Also once Nakamura drops the IGWP IC title he'd should go at Ambrose at WM for the WWE version. That match would be sick. Can't wait too see this with Owens, Neville, Ambrose, Cesaro, Balor, Zayn, Joe, Del Rio, Bryan (if he doesn't retire), Rollins (when he returns) I figured with all the talk Styles was signing soon but Nakamura is a huge shock. Two of the ten best non-wwe guys on the planet!
Probably just go by Balor Club since WWE already sells Balor Club merchandise for Finn. Wonder how they are going to write Doc and Machine Gun off of NJPW because they were united with Bullet Club after they turned on Styles.
That's awesome, we'd get to see a facsimile of an homage to a stable that will now own the facsimile. It's really a pipe dream, but if they're rushed in at rumble we could get a stable v stable match at mania, like the Shield vs evolution/wyatts.
