    Wait until Braun somehow botches the cash-in because he gets too aggressive, like with KO or the Mixed Challenge with Alexa.

    He'd probably be the most over champ since Bryan, so naturally that's what they'd do.

    The only way to end that match next week without ridiculous booooooos is for Braun to come down and beat the shit out of both of them.

    Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. I was pretty excited by the opening segment and all the possibilities....until THE BIG DOG hit and won the first match. So deflating.

    At least give me Rollins vs Reigns next week so I can spend 6 days lying to myself that they’ve been building Seth to this since March and he’s winning.

    Unfortunately, I believe the WWE want Lashley to take the belt off Brock. He matches with Brock physically and the WWE have always been high on him because of his look.

    Imagine the great microphone battles will have with Heyman and the great Bobby Lashley. :)

    Reading between the lines of whats a work and whats not I think Lesnar wants Lashley. I think Vince still wants Roman. Maybe its a 3 way. I wouldve liked a 4-5 way like they did last year, gives everybody hope and less reason to take a dump on the match.

    Stupid to say but if its Lashley maybe it wont close. Whos Styles line up against? Samoa Joe? Daniel Bryan? Miz? Thats the main event.

    It's kinda nutty, because in old-school kayfabe, you would have title matches go 2 out of 3 falls and the face would win one of the falls by DQ or count out, and they would rule that the title could only change hands on both winning falls being by pin or submission.

    I must have missed that. What did he do to botch those things or get in trouble/get heat for it?

    I think he means kayfabe wise.

    The Braun/Owens feud has been ridiculously one sided. They could have Owens get revenge by interfering during the cash-in. Heck, when the bell rings, Owens runs down, hits Brock/Roman/Bobby, gets Braun DQed. The heat would be massive.

    Now on the Network, a rare match from the historic rivalry between Bodydonna Skip and Dwayne Johnson.

    Yes ... THAT Dwayne Johnson. This is even before Rocky Maivia.

    Body Donna Skip ... AKA Chris Candido. Not a bad guy to get your introduction to the ring with since Candido could've wrestled a broom and got 3 stars out of it.

    Just finished listening to the Podcast about Mohammad Hassan - in your opinion, you who is the most controversial character in the history of the WWF/E?

    Chris Benoit's final act rubbed a lot of people the wrong way.
