Great ending to Raw...

Agree that was the best ending in a long time but that's to be expected this time of the year. I can toally see a Sting/Triple HHH match happening at WM.

I also have to add I loved Paul Hayman on last Thursday's Smackdown how he got Rollins to back off of him. Classic Paul Hayman tactics lol.

As for Raw I really enjoyed watching the Authority lose control of Brock, I was waiting for this moment since they "thought" they could deal with him and keep him under control. Again another great performance by Paul at the end coming down the ramp with Brock. His expression on his face just said it all like, Hey you thought you can controll Brock I am the only one that can control him.

Did anyone see this?

Pretty cool thing that Trips did there. He went into full-on 'father' mode!

Also, there's an interesting interview with Abyss:

What's notable about this is that WWE wanted him to face Undertaker at WM 19, but he turned their offer down.

I heard that about Triple H. Nice of him to do that for sure.

I remember when I was three years old being absolutely terrified of the Undertaker. Ironically he's been my favourite wrestler my entire life lol. Hope the rumours of him and Bray Wyatt at 'Mania this year are true.

Yeah I heard those rumors of Wyatt VS Taker at WM. I also heard that next year there shooting for a Sting VS Taker retirement match.

I love The Undertaker and his legacy, but I really don't have any interest in seeing him wrestle again. His match against Lesnar was his worst in a long time, and I know he had a concussion for a good portion of it. It still doesn't change the fact his body just doesn't cooperate like it once did. I'll be able to handle a Wyatt-Taker match, but I have zero desire to see Sting-Taker. It would've been awesome 10-15 years ago but not now. I think HHH might be able to get a decent match out of Sting, but I don't think Sting-Taker match would do either any favors.

That being said, I'm stoked for The Royal Rumble. It's pretty up in the air this year, and I'm gonna do my best to stay off rumor sites the next few days. I still think Reigns will win in the end, but there are probably 4 or 5 guys who are legit possibilities. I love that. And the inclusion of Rollins in the title match made that far more intriguing.

And that's exactly why I have read that they are having Triple H VS Sting and Wyatt VS Taker at this year's WM cause they don't think that Sting and Undertaker will be able to carry a match at their ages. I mean quite honestly I kinda agree it seems that you need a young guy to carry the match like Rock VS Hogan for example or Michaels VS Flair.

The Ryback vs. Rusev match last night on SD was surprising good.

I completely agree. I was pretty worried about it, but the two put on a good big man match. The suplex where Rusev's foot hit the rope was about the only misstep, but it was an enjoyable match overall. I think Ryback gets a lot of unfair criticism. He works a bit stiff in the ring at times, but for a big guy, he's pretty capable of putting on a decent match with the right opponent.

My prediction for the night. Cena pins Brock, but Rollins cashes in and walks out with the title.

No idea about the actual Rumble match.

DB got screwed... I figured Vince's man crush was going to win the RR but to not have DB in the mix at the end was a freaking joke. I had to laugh at Cole trying to act liking the crowd chanting BS was because of Kane and Big Show when it was clearly because RR was going to win.

That being said the Brock,Cena and Seth match was a train wreak from start to finish and I mean that in the best way possible. I loved it...

What a F'in joke. Worst Rumble ever.

It was nice to see Bubba Ray back in the WWE again and DDP. Other then that horrible.

So now I guess at some point before WM Seth will cash in the MitB. I can't really see a Reigns/Lesnar match.

I thought it started well but the second DB got knocked out it killed the crowd. You could feel the energy get sucked out of the arena.

I gave up on the company a long time ago, but I have to know. What percentage of people who act pissed tonight will cancel their WWE Network subscription? What percentage will not be tuning in tomorrow? Lastly, what percentage will not be buying anymore ppvs the rest of the year? Honestly, booing does nothing. WWE fans never actually show their displeasure in the only way that would really 'speak' volumes.

So you have stopped supporting every company that made a bad choice that you weren't happy with? If that's the case why do you still have a PS4?

Sony hasn't disappointed me for several years in a row and I've never been disappointed with one of its home consoles by the time each generation comes to a close. A medicore first year of a new console is hardly a reason for me to give up so ridiculous comparison. I, and several others, did however voice displeasure with MS' initial Xbox One policies and MS changed a lot of that stupid sh*t.

But back to my point, it seems to me the WWE has been annoying people for quite a while now. Every year all I hear is 'this sucks, that sucks, Vince is an idiot, I hate Super Cena.' And it's been that way for at least 3 years and many different ppvs. If the fans want something done, just booing isn't going to do it if the WWE is still seeing the money though, it's as simple as that. Of course to be fair, from what I read it didn't seem the PPV itself was too bad until the battle royal. Unfortunately, that is going to be all people will talk about now. Good writing and booking can flip it to a positive and get momentum going in the right direction but we'll have to see. I'm looking forward to reading the articles about upcoming shows on the website I frequent and seeing how fans respond.

@Gamer83: Sad thing is for most people even if they hate the direction WWE has gone or hate Vince for whatever reason, WWE is really the only big name wrestling around. TNA is in even worst shape then WWE and Jeff Jerret is still in the early process of his new company. Other then small indie promotions there is not much that you can follow in the ways of WWE.

@Tasuki

That's something I can appreciate. Hardcore fans are kind of screwed because they want to tune in but there's only one real option at this point so even if they hate every decision Vince makes it's not like back in the day where fans could turn around and go 'ok, I'm just going to watch WCW until WWF shapes up.' Just saying though, booing does nothing at this point. If WWE started seeing huge profit drops that put it on the brink, major changes would have to be made.

Apparently a good enough percentage to make the cancelation page conk out.

@Gamer83: Not necessary will it cause WWE to shape up. Again without any real competition there is nothing holding them back from being stupid. This is one of the main reasons I dont want to see Nintendo or Sony or even MS leave the video game market. After all competition is a good thing otherwise look what we end up with.
