Team Cena is still down one. There's got to be a mystery arrival on Sunday.

Is Bryan close to a return?

 

This guest host crap reached an all-time low last night.

I could have written a better script/angle. The Authority fits right into the Grump Cat circle. They could have teamed up in some skit. What about some use of captions to portray thoughts? No, all we see is a damn cat that looks miserable while being pushed up against a covered ledge of some kind.

 

No they're not. It's Cena, Ziggler, Show, Ryback and Rowan (for some unexplained reason)

 

I like the additions of Harper and Rowan, but they've done nothing with them since splitting them from Wyatt. So why are they all of a sudden on opposite sides?

 

Ryback isn't on the team yet. He's still "team Ryback."

 

Missed Raw, but I don't like them splitting up Rowan and Harper into opposite sides.

Unless it's part of some deeper storyline down the way. Like, Harper has the IC strap, Rowan ends up with the US Title somehow and then when Bray eventually wins the World title, they "band" gets back together and that forces The Shield to reunite to take them on again.

Hey, a brother can dream right?

 

(Yet another) good read here on the Montreal Screwjob, with Bret Hart giving the play-by-play of the backstage fight with Vince McMahon. Not sure how much, if any, of it breaks new ground, but it is interesting to hear his thought process on how he was able to knock out Vince and showing restraint when he had the chance to do a Randy Orton-like punt to Shawn Michaels' skull.

He also buries Hogan and Bischoff about his time in WCW.

I haven't read the story yet, but from what Bret's own book said, that's bullshit. Bret supposedly ripped Hogan a new one in front of Vince because Hogan didn't want to put him over after the WM 9 debacle. Now he says that in WCW, he didn't know Hogan and him had a problem?

 

I'm getting kind of sick of Bret's bitching. He makes me look like a happy-go-lucky guy.

 

His recollection has also changed over time, and unfortunately, it's hard to tell if even he remembers what happened at this point, given the concussions he's suffered.

 

WWE.com seems to think Ryback is on the team...

Good god, that's a poorly written story.
