Good thing Ambrose hasn't gotten on the mic in WWE. He sounds like a drag queen O_O


He can be good on the mic - I've heard/seen some of his promos from ROH.

imo, him and Bray Wyatt/husky are the best talkers right now.

Yeah, when they let Ambrose be intense and crazy, he can cut an awesome promo.  Just look at some of his Jon Moxley stuff.  Kind of reminds me of Roddy Piper.

As far as RAW goes, love the direction.  They've done this before, of course, but I love when the heels are at the top.  It makes it a much more powerful moment when the face wins the title.

Yeah, it's going to be epic when Bryan wins the title... unless they screw up royally and give the title back to Cena instead.

It wouldn't surprise me, to be honest, if this is a long-term Orton push and Bryan doesn't win the feud.  That would suck.  In that scenario, you're probably right, as no one else on the roster would be likely to beat him until Cena returns with "I never got my rematch" and instantly gets a shot at the title.

Which would almost make no sense... but according to WWE logic...

If Cena comes back in 4-6 months I dont think they'll just drop the ball on DB like that.

Now if he somehow in a unlikely miracle comes back in 4-6 weeks, Daniel Bryan - say hello to Dolph Ziggler. XD.

I'm sure Cena will be out 4-6 months.  Even if he heals in 1.  He still has to rehab his triceps so that's going to take time.  I think he'll be back for the Rumble as a surprise contestant again.  I just wonder how they're going to drag this feud with DB all the way to Wrestlemania.

Sooner or later CM Punk is gonna get involved - I doubt they'll do a straight storyline with Punk and Lesnar since Lesnar is on limited dates and appearances.

They'll probably have Punk feud with Axel in the meantime.

Without the IC title on line? Unless he loses it in the bout, I doubt this rivalry go beyond Oct.

No, but by that point the build for Survivor Series is gonna start.  And who knows; they might give the title to Punk just to push the title.  Hell I remember at one point Shawn MIchaels and Jericho were feuding over the IC title maybe 5 or so years ago.  It made the IC title seem more important than the WWE title.  Of course WWE killed that quickly...

Wow I must of missed that or it was WAY too short.

If they do that, that would be awesome.

Although with Ziggler+Bigshow+Mark Henry taking part in the events of the dark event after last night - we could probably see a stable vs stable rivalry.

I have a feeling this is gonna be good unless they do another NEXUS type of mistake.

It was way short, I think it was only that episode.  It literally made the IC title seem too strong.  I think they will ruin it.  There's a reason WWE's been sucking lately.

On the contrary, one of the best PPVs I've watched in years.
