Bryan vs Lesnar vs Reigns
Solves the problem of Bryan's return status causing any potential issues while Reigns benefits by having two big stars involved for his potential big Mania moment. Ideally, Lesnar's reign would be him just flat out dominating everyone to really emphasis him as the "final boss" of the roster going into Mania season. |

Sami Zayn should have been called up like yesterday. The dude's whole shtick is that he's just a genuinely likeable competitor, so he doesn't need the frills and production to get his toes wet. Just bring him up and have him wrestle. Give him a big upset like they did when he debuted in NXT, perhaps against a guy like Alberto Del Rio, and have him go from there.
Adrian Neville and Tyler Breeze strike me as the next two guys that are "ready." And much like Zayn, they are pretty easy to plug in. Neville could even be brought up as an occasional tag team partner of Zayn's. As for the main event program at WrestleMania 31? I just can't help but feel that Daniel Bryan should be the winner of the 2015 Royal Rumble. The Authority won't give him a shot? He earns it. Bryan would be a well-deserved Rumble Winner and it'd make total sense. As for who the champion would be? A lot of people seem to think that Brock Lesnar is going to get a run with the belts. They are probably right. I guess Lesnar vs. Bryan works fine for me. There is also the possibility of Cena vs. Bryan, however, which I feel could be huge. Cesaro could then be the guy who faces Brock. But if you do Lesnar vs. Bryan, you can always do Cena vs. Cesaro. Roman Reigns is in a lot of main event discussions, but I just can't help but feel as if he'd be better used elsewhere at WrestleMania 31. Maybe he is the guy they put against Triple H? Or you could have Reigns face The Rock, if The Rock is willing to work another match. Reigns vs. Ambrose vs. Rollins in a clash of the former Shield? That would be a huge match. I also wouldn't be opposed to even seeing Reigns take the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. |

Something less generic and more "larger than life" sounding to help in developing a distinct character. Like... "Primal". Seems like a name that people could get used to. Or some Samoan word that means "monster" or "beast" or something.
Something more generic and less "less larger than life". Like Gideon Bane. |

Everyone can run their mouths about Samoa Joe, but I believe 100% that nothing but good will come of his pending arrival to WWE.
Hell, it might be part of the deal package CM Punk is requesting backstage. Get positive for once in your life. It might feel good |

I'd name Samoa Joe, I'tiki Payne.
Samoa Joe will probably be named Po Ferocity. |

I would keep the Samoa Joe name. He's the biggest "Indy" star to never work for WWE, and he's been name dropped in a couple official WWE DVD or releases. Use his built-in pedigree from ROH and allude to TNA without actually referring to them by name and you've got an automatic story with Bryan and - if and when he returns - Punk.
They'll probably go with something from the NXT Name Generator. Avery Wilcox or something like that. |

I'd keep him with the Samoa Joe name, knowing WWE they'd drop half of it so he'd only be Samoa two months after his debut.
If they named him off the bat, they'd call him Sumo Sam and he'd be a Japanese sumo wrestler. |

Have him come in as Khali's brother with a fondness for baked savoury snacks, he'd be Samosa Joe.
Or, instead of going the "obvious" route of presenting him as a savage, they could go the other way and have Joe be a sophisticated, smoking-jacket-wearing gentleman; Samuel Joseph, Esq. Of course, they should just bring him in as Samoa Joe. Why not use the name recognition he has built over the last 10 years? |

All I want for Joe at this point is for another van to kidnap him while heading to the ring. Instead of a lair or anything like that, it's actually a rescue group who let him out in a warm, sunny park. Joe is hesitant at first to leave the van, but soon thereafter starts walking around and galavanting in the park, relearning how to have fun.

Cena whenever Raw is at (insert very smarky city here) and instead of the regular titantrons for each Superstar/Diva just play Cena's entrance every time. So I can see the look on Vince & Co.'s faces when the crowd/ TV audience 100% turns on them

They really should do a Hair vs. Hair Match with Bo.
I'm thinking someone like Adrian Neville once he makes it to the main roster consoling Bo having just cost Bo his "luscious locks", telling him to "keep his chin up, it'll grow back...if you just Bo-lieve, pet". |

First thing:
I didn't say "Hey stretch out Jeff/Willow's decision for a month to build suspense", I said they could have let it simmer for a week, have Kurt cut that same promo a week before the battle royale. TNA likes to do show long builds, I said give it a week and see if you can get some more people interested in the reveal. Second thing: ![]() |
