Summer Rae finally made her wrestling debut! I've been watching her at NXT this month, she's solid in the ring.

Hopefully this now opens up for Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns to have a singles run.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Daniel Bryan lost!!....again!!

I used to like DB, but have started to root against him because of that obnoxious yes chant.

Daniel Bryan does the running knee on Triple H, then HBK superkicks Daniel Bryan, Orton pins Bryan and HBK 3-counts it.

It's going to be an interesting Raw tomorrow. Both the WHC and WWE title rematches are going to happen.

Enough people watch it so that Vince McMahon can charge 50 dollars for PayPerView events and get away with it on a month to month basis.

I use to watch when I was little. I couldn't tell you who wrestles anymore. Does The Rock still wrestle?
I loved him .....and Ray Mysterio(?)

I think the Rock announced that he was done, and Mysterio's at the point where he's still on the roster technically but not regularly on TV

Those were the days though, it's almost unanimous that today's product isn't as good as it was previously.

I hate this generation's WWE I only watch it because of the sake of tradition with my old buddies but I feel they are running out of ideas literally. I feel like their main problem is the fact that they don't have that "good" character that will match the "bad" character's personality. The new people are good wrestlers but doesn't have that superstar personality that they use to get from The Rock or Stone Cold. Their best wrestler now is Randy Orton but no one can really match with him which make the story so dull and boring. John Cena who the WWE thinks the is Lebron James of this generation is such a bad character. Not a great wrestler, not charismatic, and half of the fan base of the WWE hates him. Daniel Bryant is a good wrestler but really doesn't have that superstar quality. They are trying to replicate the old "what!" chant to that "yes!" chant which isn't half as good as the What chant was. CM punk the only real charismatic wrestler but I don't think he is a good wrestler and really too small to have the superstar quality. The WWE needs that new "The Rock" but their are so much political issues when you mention the person Vince Mcmahon. That's why this organization is dying.

What the hell is WWE doing with Ziggler? I understand he pissed some people off in the back, but dude is at least a mid card talent.

He won't be buried forever. He's too good in all aspects. He's probably being shown some sort of tough love. He's racked up losses against Ryback, Bray Wyatt, Dean Ambrose, Alberto Del Rio, Randy Orton, and Damien Sandow who are all upper mid card heels. As of now, the top faces in the company are John Cena, CM Punk, and Daniel Bryan, followed by Cody Rhodes, Goldust, and The Big Show. I would say Ziggler is still on the same level as Kofi Kingston and The Miz.

Give Dean Ambrose another year, he has the potential to be one of the greatest heels of the modern era.

I'm not talking about heels I think they need a new face (or a hero) that can handle main event matches. They have enough good villains. The good guys are just mediocre.

So Bryan got screwed again. I hope this ends with Bryan winning the title at mania. Although I don't know who he will fight if that happens. It can't be against Orton, that is done to death. My thinking is somehow Triple H will end up with the belt, and Bryan will beat him. Triple h can go mad with power and win the title himself. Hopefully Bryan stays strong in this storyline, but I'm getting tired of him getting screwed, he better get his redemption, and that means winning the title cleanly.

Man that triple tag team match was on fire. Goldust can still put on a match too. Best match on the card IMO

Tag team divisions looking up with Real Americans and Los Matadores steadily getting over and The Shield, Rhodes Bros and The Usos being already over

No more useless joke tag matches with 3MB or ToF or Santino and Khali pls

Also lmao @ HBK, DBryan and HHH

DB didn't accept it, HBK cut a Heel Promo on him.

Handshake into a Yes Lock, HBK Taps Out

DB got attacked by Wyatt

Sandow came out and acted as if he wasnt going to cash in against Cena that night but instead attacked Cena's injured arm.

After Sandow finished his attack, he called out a ref and cashed in but lost the match when Cena connected on a second AA.

As far as Sandow being a heel or inbetweener, he is a heel but when your facing Cena most fans treat you as an inbetweener since they hate Cena so much; so Sandow was receiving a bunch of cheers.

IMAN5 · Post #219 » by **IMAN5** » Tue Oct 29, 2013 8:17 pm

is Sandow the first person to not win a title after cashing the money in the bank?

Lower card of Survivor Series was good, as was the Punk/Bryan vs Wyatts match. Big Show vs Orton was the worst match on the PPV. I'm definitely intrigued by the new Cena/Orton storyline that began to develop at the end of the PPV. It's hinting at a title unification.

Originally, wasn't too sure about the CM Punk and Daniel Bryan pairing, but I am now completely sold on it. I've never seen Punk look this happy before...

http://www.wwe.com/videos/cm-punk-danie ... v-26166257

If given the opportunity, CM Punk and Daniel Bryan are going to make the shows fun to watch, kind of like a new DX, or maybe a modern day Mega Powers. Depending on when Cena calls it quits, I think Punk and Bryan may go down as the two biggest faces of pro wrestling of the 2010's. Fandom is at an all time high for both. I look at them the same way I saw Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels in the mid 90's
