    ^edit

    I watch other wrestling promotions like Ring Of Honor, New Japan, Impact Wrestling, AAA/CMLL Lucha Libre, Combat Zone Wrestling, Pro Wrestling Guerilla, Chikara, and even local promotons like Reality Of Wrestling (owned by Booker T, his wife Sharmell, and his brother Stevie Ray).

    Wrestlers get hurt. I'm sure banging into barricades, steel steps, getting hit with Kendos and going through numerous tables does not feel good

    I think it's his acting that's not selling it for me. I like Kevin Owens in the ring stuff, technical skills but the persona, I'm not buying it much. I don't know maybe it's the old dad talk in me.

    Yep. I've seen his matches only from last year. He's good, hope he gets called up to a major promotion so he gets more exposure nationally/worldwide.

    Anybody see Ambrose's interview with Michael Cole on WWE.com?

    To me.. he sounded a lot like a heel.

    Would love to see Roman win and have Ambrose turn heel.

    Maybe make WM32 a triple threat match? Roman can go over and hold the belt until Summerslam where Dean finally takes the title from him. Then Seth can come back the same night and set up a WM33 Rollins vs Reigns vs Ambrose triple threat match for the WWE WHC.

    If anyone needs to turn heel it needs to be Roman, whoever Roman goes up against at Mania is going to be cheered regardless, the crowd has made up their mind with him.

    I could see Roman win at Wrestlemania, gain respect from The Authority and then turn heel by becoming their main guy.

    That could lead to a rivalry with Brock, or Dean.

    I can see the Shield reuniting at WM to beat the Authority as well or Ambrose turn heel they can book it in too many ways and it'll be good

    Brock has shown that he's head and shoulders above anything Reigns can do. Even if it's power moves vs power moves, there's no way I see Reigns beating Lesnar.

    Dean could be another story, though. I can see him being the Stone Cold to Reigns' McMahon, in that Dean just goes off the rails and tries to undermine Reigns at every turn.

    Can you really see the Rollins-Authority angle dissolved so early? When Rollins is cleared to wrestle again, I'm hoping he stays heel with the Authority.

    I wish I could believe this, but last time they were in the ring together, Reigns put him down with a spear, twice. But jeez I hate Reigns' "power" moveset. He can't do a normal powerbomb lift, his one armed deadlift slam looks really strained, his one armed samoan drop could be a style choice I guess, but it looks weaker than all the other versions. His only well done moves are his finishers, a tbone suplex, and the suicide dive over the ropes.

    I don't know if anyone has read the NXT tapings but it was announced that NAKAMURA would be facing Sami Zayn at NXT Takeover Dallas, Holy S***

    After reading the spoilers for the NXT tapings, I am going to try my best to be at NXT Takeover:Dallas, the card might even be better than Mania,

    I'm supposed to go up Saturday for Mania (person I'm going with can't leave till Saturday morning). I might have to go up there Friday on my own to see this NXT card it looks ridiculous.
