    I did initially start the thread in the Hangout only for it to be moved here so I don't know what to tell ya.

    Cena's already coming back in a random match with Del Rio? WWE is desperately doing damage control on the PPV circuit.

    I don't think this match actually happens. It'll come out that Vickie didn't have the authority to make it, or Cena isn't medically cleared. Then the title shot will go to the last person to have pinned ADR, Ricardo Rodriguez. Plus, El Local has been showing up on NXT and
    will make his Smackdown debut Friday.

    Still, didn't like the way ADR reacted to the news that he'd be facing Cena. Dude has beaten Cena a bunch of times, no reason to be scared now.

    I don't follow wrestling much but is that, like, the same Golddust as before? Shouldn't this dude be like in his 40s? I remember him from when I was younger but this dude was awesome to watch.

    The very same.

    On that note, I really wanted to see a Shattered Dreams spot tonight.

    What a badass match between Goldust and Cody vs The Shield. Great feud building for survivor series.

    Yup, that was surprisingly entertaining. The match was told well. The Crowd was hot. It kind of had a hokey ending in the end because of the Big Show, but he is also part of the angle. Overall, that match was satisfying. That's the only match I remember from having it on, but not paying attention. Like I was gonna watch Monday Night Football.

    Goldust was AWESOME last Monday, I had no idea he could still perform like that. I love this team up of the Rhodes brothers.

    He is apparently a talented make-up artist as well:

    I honestly thought Goldust was in his late 50's or early 60's. The fact that he is still barely 45 is amazing to me.

    Yeah. I was just thinking the other day how many eras this dude has been a part of. He's stuck around for at least 5 eras. Wowzers.

    Golden Era
    Made his debut at the 1991 Royal Rumble (Tag teaming with his Dad Dusty vs. MDM Ted Dibiase and Virgil)

    New Generation Era
    Debuted as Goldust

    Attitude Era
    Went from the whacked out Artist Formerly Known as Goldust to Bible Thumpin Dustin Runnels back to Original Goldust

    Brand Extension/Ruthless Aggression Era
    Teams with Booker T, stuttering fool. Frequent coming and going.

    Current PG Era
    Teaming with brother Cody as Tag Team Champs.

    Goldust has seen Bret Hart, HBK, Hogan, Austin, Rock, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash and all the greats from those eras come and go and he's still ticking.

    I thought Dusty Rhodes was gold dust, there's no way that guy putting on make up is Dusty Rhodes.

    Nevermind, I watched back in the '90s and always thought they were saying Dusty Rhodes but I guess I misheard and it was Dustin.

    Up for Hell in a Cell tomorrow!

    Matches, with my predictions in bold:

    Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton for the WWE Title in the cell, HBK is guest referee
    Albert del Rio vs. John Cena for the WHC
    Rhodes Dynasty vs. Shield vs. the Usos for the Tag Team Titles
    Curtis Axel vs. Big E Langston for the IC Title
    AJ Lee vs. Brie Bella for the Divas Title
    CM Punk vs. Ryback & Paul Heyman in the cell
    Los Matadores vs. The Real Americans

    Some random predictions:
    HBK or Big Show turn heel and cost Bryan the match
    Seeds are planted for a Cesaro face turn
    Brock returns or we're introduced to another new Heyman guy

    I'm weirdly excited for this PPV. I have no idea how the hell in a cell matches will play out and the tag match should be awesome. Might have to turn in my IWC card, but I'm kind of looking forward to Cena's return.

    Question: del Rio HAS to beat Cena, right? If Cena wins business-as-usual, ADR will be buried all to hell (see Ryback and Mark Henry), and Cena's stuck defending the second-best belt, which makes no sense.

    Cena will beat ADR but later on, he will lose to Damien Sandow because Sandow is going to cash in his Money In The Bank briefcase after the World Heavyweight Championship match is over.
