    Sting should win not sure I'd buy him beating the Taker from those Lesnar fights though.

    Maybe they don't do Taker vs Sting just to keep the "what if" thought in our heads. Kind of like Rock vs HBK or Austin vs Hogan.

    I thought it was because Sting physically can't wrestle anymore

    Maybe not sure. That turnbuckle suplex did him in and the Rollins small package def wasn't the planned finish..but he looks hurt bad

    Hearing Mauro call the Owens/Ambrose IC Title match was refreshing. Loved how he called the New Japan American broadcast. That voice & enthusiasm and the way he gets the psychology of everything is the best in the business. A less annoying Joey Styles. His back and forths with Saxton were great. He coined the 'Lunatic Lariat' too I believe.

    Owens & Ambrose are becoming main event guys with this fued.

    Cannot wait too see Shinsuke in person.

    I haven't really watched in a while because the product has been so damn bad. So I check back in to see what's up because I wanna see how they screw up the rumble this year. Not only is it for the title (stupid). They are having Reigns in it, and they are basically booking it as a 1 on 29 handicap match (stupider).

    He's the f**king champ, and they are somehow gonna use the Rumble to make him look strong. I'm sure he's gonna get screwed by the authority, but this is still some stupid f**king booking. Why give him the belt in the first place if you were gonna go this route? I'm guessing Lesnar has to win, because they haven't booked anybody else to be remotely close to champ.

    The product really has reached pathetic levels.

    Wyatts sorta saved the finish but this probably won't start any feuds, just showing that there's multiple contenders. Lesnar stopped dead in his tracks by spears two times in the ending sequence. I was glad Reigns won it last month but this is sad.

    That's stupid, this is easily one of the most anticipated Rumble matches in history.

    Yes, they are going to use the Rumble too make him look strong. What the hell is the point of them making him look week. With Cena out past WM, he's the top face. It's not like he's not going to be in the main event at WM either as champ or challenger. They'll make 5-6 guys look strong on top of that..Lesnar, Bray, Rusev (after the great match he had w/Reigns on RAW), Ambrose/Owens, Triple H..if he's #2, Styles..if he does indeed debut, Balor/Zayn if the rumors are true, etc

    Anybody who thinks this product is boring doesn't appreciate real pro wrestling cause Ambrose/Owens, New Day/Usos, Del Rio/Kalisto, Charlotte/Becky, Reigns/League of Nations have been running great programs.

    Alright, bored.

    I'll say Brock comes in between 2-5 and he and Samoan Cena eliminates a bunch of people. Like, everyone basically. Out at number 30 is 3H. Through wrestling shenanigans, he eliminates Samoan Cena. Brock wins. 3H and Samoan Cena performs at fast lane.

    Your fast lane championship could be between Brock vs Wyatt or League of Nation guy, just to have hem in the championship mix.


    Just thinking aloud. Bored.

    AJ is scheduled to atleast be at RR as well as Raw & SD next week

    In six months the WWE roster should be Rollins, Lesnar, Reigns, AJ, Bryan, Owens, Ambrose, Nakamura, Balor, Zayn, Cesaro, Neville, Rusev, Joe, Del Rio, Sheamus, Wyatt Family, Barrett, New Day, Ziggler, Usos, Lucha Dragons, Gallows & Anderson, Enzo & Cas, Stardust, Social Outcasts, Cena, Sasha, Bayley, Becky, Paige, Charlotte, etc

    No roster can come close to that talent level. Dream matches picked out of a hat

    I'm so desperate for some Rumble shakeups so that I can get excited about this Wrestlemania. Because the way it's looking now, 32's only gonna be about breaking the attendance record, while 33 could be solid gold from top to bottom. And that's not even counting the part timers.

    If Bryan ever clears concussion protocol WM32 needs a Bryan/Nakamura match with no storyline just a challenge. If not I want a Ambrose/Owens/Nakamura match. WM32 will still have 4-5 matches I'll probably be into it but with the Rollins/Bryan/Cena/Cesaro injuries there is serious limitations, WM33 will be gold top too bottom especially with the time they are using too build up Ambrose, Owens, Neville, New Day, Rusev, etc and the Japan/NXT big 3 all having time too show who they are
