If it wasnt for Heyman returning would anyone honestly have anything to look forward to in Wwe?
I'm very very drunk and cant think of the words to describe how wrong i think the Daniel Brian, Wyatt family thing is
Am i wrong?

I have to admit, I'm not too fond of the idea. I personally wasn't down for a Daniel Bryan vs. Bray Wyatt feud in the first place, but I think it should have ended with Bryan managed to get a few wins over The Family, even if he never pinned or submitted Wyatt.

I'm fine with it, but if I were the booker.... I would have had Kane actually be the one to be brainwashed by the Wyatts. Kane's current suit-wearing heel turn has done absolutely nothing for him....

Wyatts could then get involved with Bryan. Have Bryan be the one trying to save his friend from the clutches of Bray Wyatt.

.... But since that didn't happen, I am in fact looking forward to seeing what WILL actually happen.

It could be kind of cool if The Wyatt Family became anti-authority faces.

CM Punk has made some disparaging Tweets today. :(

lets make sure we dont post the tweets here so other people have to get the tweets themselves.

Don't worry, Ryan Clark has taken CM Punk's bait and posted them on the front page.

Paul Heyman as an orator can make ANYTHING better. Case in point, he polished this turd of a remake for the handful of seconds he was in it...

Supposedly, they even added a couple more scenes for him because he was better than they expected.

Truthfully, I'm surprised in the number of years it has been on and the number of iterations it has spawned that Paul has never been a weasly scumbag on some episode of Law & Order.

Another Tanahashi vs. Okada match. I'm not sure if I'm getting them in sequence, but this seems right. Loving it so far, more so than the other match. Love the cockiness of Okada and the lengths he will go through to become IWGP Heavyweight Champion (a title that was once held by Brock Lesnar).

I think they had a few matches before the Wrestle Kingdom match but so far you've gone in order, next is their G1 climax match and after that is their King of Pro Wrestling match which I think is their best and one of the best matches of the year.

Given his on-again/off-again relationship with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, I really wouldn't mind it if the main event of WrestleMania XXX was Randy Orton defending the WWE World Heavyweight Title against 2014 Royal Rumble Winner, CM Punk. Heyman has made it clear that he's not back for revenge against Punk, a nice way of closing the book there, but that could be easily remedied if Orton chooses to go to Heyman for advice on how to best get into Punk's head. Orton isn't bad on the mic (sometimes not the most exciting promo in the world, but far from bad), but having Heyman in there would help tremendously. Heyman would provide that extra insurance policy that The Authority have seemingly taken away from The Viper.

Heyman could then also gloat about having the youngest WWE Champion and youngest World Heavyweight Champion in WWE history in his camp, and go on a bit of a power trip.

That's probably better than the Steiner/Christian head slam.

I don't usually put much stock into these rumors, but reportedly The Undertaker has requested Daniel Bryan to be his WrestleMania XXX opponent.

The Observer is pretty reliable as a source overall. Them, PWInsider, and F4W are usually the big ones for both reliability and as the sources for the majority of wrestling news.

It’s not the same thing as when Steve Austin turned heel in 2001, since he brought a generation of fans to the table. The business has also changed to where it’s not like doing this is risking business as it often did when the wrong guy was turned at the wrong time.

It’s not even clear what the direction is, except apparently as a way to make Wyatt into a star capable of working with Cena at WrestleMania, as is the plan. Where Bryan fits into the show is unknown. It is said that Undertaker asked to work with him at Mania this year, and such a match would at least have the turn make sense.

But as of press time, the top four planned Mania matches are still Cena vs. Wyatt, Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar, HHH vs. C.M. Punk and Randy Orton vs. Batista.

WWE decided against offering a contract to the American Wolves after their tryout matches on NXT.

The basic gist of the situation was that HHH didn’t want to sign them after the tryout camp because of their size. The feeling is they are loaded with guys who aren’t big who can go so the mentality is that they are looking for guys who can headline WrestleMania in five or ten years out of these camps. A lot of people went to bat for both of them, feeling they should get a deal and several pushed that they should go directly to the main roster. So HHH agreed to give them a several month tryout period. The problem with that at first is that WWE also didn’t want them on anyone else’s TV past the commitments they already had with ROH until the end of the year. But after the first taping, HHH made the decision not to sign them. There were stories out that it was because in the match with The Ascension, there was a spot where Richards landed on his head, which was an accident. Essentially, when they were working on their match, Viktor picked Richards up without dipping down first. So when they did the match at the tapings, Richards went up, and this time, Viktor dipped and the end result was Viktor lost him and he landed on his head. The ref told them to go home under orders from HHH in the back. They did, but not right away. I don’t know that had anything to do with the decision not to sign them because it would make little sense regarding Edwards who had nothing to do with the spot, and they were not there to be a team as WWE could have picked one and not the other.

"Samuel Shaw" debuting on Impact right now. Seems like a serial killer. Dexter gimmick.

Undertaker vs Daniel Bryan W/Wyatts could be amazing.

New Jack and Balls Mahoney Face Off shoot

He is going to murder Christy Hemme. Pretty sure about this.

one of the better shoot promos of all time imo.

Buddy Landel talks about being his own worst enemy in this promo for a match against Shawn Michaels at SMW's Superbowl of Wrestling

Landel could've been a much bigger name in the biz imo had his demons not gotten the better of him.

They taped two weeks worth of Impact when I went.

Heel Christian is so fucking amazing.

This Samual (stupid spelling) Shaw character might be kinda interesting. I felt genuinely creeped out during his match.

Dexter gimmick. Tight fitting dark green shirt, tan pants, black gloves, emotionless eyes... Christy Hemme is going to be swimming with the fishes soon.

Cesaro is getting better all the time.

Also, EC3 is amazing.
