    Gotcha. Even when he's interested I still think he's a limited worker. Being capable doesn't equal being great, there has to be some consistency there because I think almost any wrestler can have a great match under the right circumstances.

    Cole is awful, period. I am so tired of him and JBL talking during awesome matches about BS trying to be mike and mike for wrestling. Or when it's dark and Wyatts or someone are building a "eery" ambiance, they are babbling about bull****.

    Dude lay off of Cole, he helped me locate and download the WWE app for my smart phone! He also does a great job telling me what's trending on the Twitter and what people are saying about the WWE Universe.

    But yeah, Cole is pretty bad. I actually don't mind JBL because at times he will bring up good points and he's entertaining.

    There's talk that the Wyatts will cost John Cena the EC title match thus making the Cena/Wyatt WM match official. Makes sense and keeps Cena "strong" right?

    Also the WWE has offered The Rock the Hall of Fame "main event" spot for 2015.

    Thats interesting about the Wyatts and Cena....wonder how they're gunna work that while locked in a chamber? My guess Lights go dark, hes looking at titan tron, Lights back on RKO boom.....Cena is out early, blames Wyatts etc.

    There's always ways to get the cage open. They have to open it each time a wrestler gets eliminated, so maybe they run in then. Maybe the lights go out after Cena hits the AA on Orton and when the lights come back on the Wyatts are already in the ring with the cage still locked beating Cena down. Maybe they come up from under the ring ala what The Undertaker used to do.

    During Vince's WWE investor conference call someone asked him about CM Punk's status with the company to which Vince replied to "He's taking a sabbatical. Let me put it that way".

    I think it's pretty interesting the WWE is going out of its way not to knock Punk. In the past they would have just buried him on their show and in the press.

    The problem with Orton is that it's hard to think of anything that he's exceptional at. His mic skills are horrid and his work in the ring is OK at best. I know a lot of people hate on Cena too but Randy Orton is not even in Cena's league. Nobody's going to mistake John Cena for Brett Hart but he's great at entertaining people. Orton is really good at getting a pop from women who think he's good looking. I guess I have to give him that. I'm not surprised to hear that he half asses it sometimes. I mean the guy was so bad at being in the Marines that the Marine Corps was offended at the idea of him even pretending to be a Marine on television. I guess you could overlook his low character if he was exceptional at something. He has a look but plenty of guys do and the WWE doesn't continuously push them at main event level the way they have Orton for years. I'll never understand it.

    The guy looks like a star and has the legacy of growing up with family in the business so that helps too. I don't think he's worthless in the ring but like you said he's not exceptional. He just doesn't do it for me.

    It actually has a couple of decent matches on the card. The EC match itself should be good and so should the Shield/Wyatt match. And it will be fun watching Del Rio get beat up too.

    You'd have to think the Usos will win the titles but maybe it would make more sense if they won it at the WM pre-show? Although the WWe could also throw out a Fatal 4 Way for the titles at WM between them, the Rhodes Brothers, maybe the other 2 Wyatts and the NAO.

    O'Neill is probably going over Young. Good to see the WWE giving O'Neill a shot. Word is he went to Vince asking for a shot at being something more and asked to split up the tag team and give him a heel run. Glad to see they're giving him some mike time too. He's got the look that's for sure.

    So off topic sorta....cause everyone has penciled in Brock as Takers opponent......but holy ****....imagine the Bray Wyatt in the ring with someone, going nuts on a rant like normal, in the corner bent backwards like a crazy person, giving someone the sister abagail........and as he kneels with arms extended LIGHTS GO OUT........DONG........Taker vs Bray would be ****ing epic.

    I don't think Bray is quite ready for The Undertaker yet at WM in terms of being established. But the stuff those two could do in the build up to the match in terms of mind games etc would be pretty entertaining.

    Hulk Hogan is being considered for the GM of RAW since Sting has yet to agree to a deal. I think having a GM and the Authority is kind of overkill. I'd rather Hogan be named President of something ala Jack Tunney back in the late 80s/early 90s or Linda McMahon in the early 2000s and only shows up for important announcements or matters otherwise his appearances will start to get stale and he'll lose his appeal.

    Surprisingly (not) the fans sh*t all over the Batista match(cheering Del Rio in every move)..if its only Batista vs Randy Orton at WM 30 I can only imagine what its going to be like in the superdome...hopefully creative has something up their sleeves other than the obvious

    Also no way the WM event is Orton Batista. Bryan will be in the main event. Maybe him vs hhh and if he wins he's in the main event, idk, but Bryan is leaving WM champion

    The next two RAWs should be very interesting with the Network launch today at 9am, the WWE will be hyping the crap out of it and are bringing back Hogan, Jimmy Hart, The Undertaker, Lesnar and Flair. And then next Monday is in Chicago and you can be sure the WWE will need to do something big to try and get rid of the CM Punk chants. I think that's the RAW where if they are planning on putting Bryan in the main event, that's the one where they announce it or have a match to get him in it.

    WWE.com expectedly lagging like crazy right now, I am trying to sign up for the network but I am going to wait a bit.

    Last nights PPV was great. Cole playing like JR at the end of Bryan being screwed was great! This is setting up nicely for Bryan to have his Austin moment at WM. If only they (wwe creative or HHH) don't screw this up. 60+ thousand people screaming YES YES YES with Bryan holding the titles at WM would be orgasmic!

    That 6 team tag match was amazing. I was marking out like crazy. The fans chanting "we want tables" and Rollins.....holy **** is Rollins awesome.....Hes like "put me through this table!!!" It was magic. Put Reigns over too and really kept the train chugging along for them to break up. Good stuff.

    You can bet that the WWE brags that their system "crashed" because of the high demand of people wanting to sign up for the Network, which is probably true.

    I haven't signed up for it yet, I probably will take a look at the free trial and then sign up in mid-March or so when I know I have more time to watch stuff.
