    You know, they won't do it because of the stigma, but I think the WWE could really pull a nice serve here with Rusev and Lana tonight against Cena.

    We all know Cena isn't going to say the words, so what if Ruseve makes him do it because he's about to put Lana in The Accolade? Then the next night on Raw, Lana comes out with Rusev and reveals it was the plan all along and that she was only toying with the "Stupid Americans and their acceptance of her."

    But then again, we'll have Rusev say it probably. I could also see them having Lana stop the match on behalf of Rusev to save him and then their heat continues to build.

    Ha, I've actually thought several times, "Maybe Rusev makes Cena quit by threatening Lana..." However, I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be with that, given the domestic violence sort of angle they'd seemingly be going in with that. Your idea of having Lana be in on it makes more sense, although like you say, I think it's still more likely that they just have Cena win.

    I feel so bad for Sandow. And it's worse because they're doing nothing with Miz so his win in the feud means nothiNg.

    Tyson Kidd is awesome.

    Cesaro is strong. Holy shit.

    The I quit match was great until the finish. They make a huge deal that the ref can't stop it with Cena out cold because he didn't say it, then Russev didn't say it. And that rope spot was the definition of a rope break!!!

    Russev should've won the 4 corner match if Cena was winning the blowoff. Still reallY enjoyed the vast majority of that match.

    Some fun moments in that fatal four-way. The brief Shield reunion, and then Reigns-Ambrose were entertaining as hell. Finish felt a little flat, though.
    So besides those four, who do they add to the mix to round out the Chamber match? One has to be Kane. Who's No. 6?

    Man. What a blah Pay Per View. I know we can't really complain anymore because they're on the network but they literally could have scrapped that entire PPV and I wouldn't have even noticed.
    Oh and two weeks until Elimination Chamber and then two weeks after that is Money in the Banks? Add in the NXT special Wednesday and the weekly Raw and Smackdowns (Which I don't watch) and even I think this is too much.

    Main event was about as good as it could've been with the build. Really fun match.

    6th guy in the chamber must be Cena. (Bray?)

    "We can't all fit in that pod!"

    Hilarious.

    I thought it was a solid show. Too late to think of more, and I hate typing on this iPhone screen.

    Great show. No match that I didn't enjoy. I wouldn't say there were any MOTYC, but there were lots of matches that were nearly great.

    The bromance between Reigns and Ambrose is my favourite thing.

    The New Day backstage after winning was hilarious.

    We don't spit (Big E spits his milk out), we don't cuss (Xavier says 'what the hell?') and we don't complain (Kofi says Chamber match is unfair). Brilliant stuff, that was.
