This makes sense since Gallows and Anderson turned on him in New Japan before he left to go to WWE.
I'm not a good guy. I'm not a bad guy. I'm a Paul Heyman guy.
I've always thought they should pair Reigns with Heyman and let Paul do the talking.
I could support the Payback rumor. I'm a sucker for new stables. Agree with others that Roman's stable needs a mouthpiece.
I really do feel sorry for Reigns. It's not his fault the fans called BS on his mega push that, frankly, he's not ready for. He gets booed out of every building a la Boo-tis-ta. However, if anyone thought that the big, pretty one wouldn't be the chosen one of the Shield, you don't know how McMahon works.
I have a feeling if they turn Roman heel, the crowd will start cheering him to be edgy.

I am curious about your guys opinion on Triple H. I watched the guy WCW and then, of course, in the Attitude era and beyond in WWE. I never understood the appeal. His wrestling was average to below average. (Kick, Punch, Pedigree or Sledgehammer) His interview skills compared to the greats, I think, are average. The sledgehammer gimmick annoyed the crap out of me because it just felt lame. Of course, he married the bosses' daughter so he isn't stupid.
The only thing that I can say that I do like about him is that he created NXT. Is there something I missed about this guy?

I'm right there with you.
I'll give the man credit that he can put on good matches and he's an above-average promo, but a little long-winded at times. However, when he became THE top guy my interest in the product waned. I quit watching all together around 2003 because I was so sick of HHH.
He's a sure fire HOFer and has a passion for the business, but he's always going to be an upper mid-card/low main event guy who married well in my book.
Sad because it's another part of my childhood gone. But, we all knew that was a matter of time.
RIP Chyna.
They put Sunny in the HOF, but Chyna never got in. You can tell she really wanted in but never did.
I would have liked to seen her giving a speech getting in.
The backstage heat on her is real and it will be the topic on how this plays out with the company.

True I understand and am not bashing the WWE for this, she played her part to.
Shes hard or was to deal with. Sunny would bash the WWE and members all the time and she still got in. However..
I love when the wrestlers have passion for something and she did, she wanted another match and wanted in the HOF and I respect that. She never thought she was to good for the WWE like some others after leaving does.
Supposivily this is the last video she uploaded to her YouTube page on the 17th..
She sounds so out of it here.

People are trashing WWE online about how she should have been acknowledged and in the HOF. This woman was a train wreck for years. She had a major drug problem, did porn, accused XPac and HHH of abuse and other things.
You're not getting asked back when you're out of control.
It is about time, I saw the video of the end of the match, the fans were going nuts for it. That makes Joe the first ever ROH, TNA and now NXT champ.
I guess this also paves the way for Balor to move on up and get back with the Bullet Club??

I like the idea of a title changing hands at a house show. Makes the house shows seem important.
From what I have read Joe was supposed to win the title in London then they changed their minds and again in Dallas. I like what LD said and HHH said much the same last night makes you think a house show can be important.
Of course the fact WWE cameras were there filming last night may have given away something big was going to happen.
The "Balor Club" debuts and turns on AJ maybe who knows but I am at least interested to see where this is going.

Yup WWE has a few interesting storylines going on right now.
It's funny what they can do when they are not forced to get one guy over with the crowd.

So what does this mean for Balor and Balor Club? Costs AJ the title? Reigns works with Bullet Club? Is AJ face? Is Balor a face or heel when this happens?
Very curious

^ Him and KO are among my favorites. I have an odd group of favs
Balor
Reigns
KO
Nakamura
Rollins
I think Balor could be a face of WWE if they allowed it and didn't water him down. Do the exact same stuff they did with him in NXT and he will be great.

Yup WWE has done more with their roster in the last month then they did the last year. Very intriguing storylines moving forward for sure.
She got fired after sloppily working 2 dates for TNA.
That's all that needs to be said for her post WWE career.
Glad to see Joe take the NXT strap. He's been a favorite of mine for a long time. Anxious to see how this whole "Balor Club" thing works out. They could be building up for a hell of a run to Summerslam and perhaps beyond.
My current favorites are KO, Cesaro. Ambrose, Styles (I was a huge fan of his prior to WWE) and ... Cody Rhodes because the guy puts his all into whatever gimmick he's given.

The idea of not putting her in the HOF just shows how crazy of a world we live in.
If she doesn't go in the next 3 years then to me no other woman is a hall of famer. Crazy to think she won't next year.

The cake is baking pretty good right now I would say, what say you Big Cat Fan ? Patience Grasshopper.
So for those that have the WWE Network the next episode of Table for 3 which I really like...
Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard and Ric Flair talking about what else...the 4 Horsemen.
Talking about the current roster I really hope Crazy Grandpa doesn't change course over the ratings. The 3rd hour of Raw lost almost 800,000 viewers on Monday. Please don't rush Cena and Orton back.
The ratings didn't go down overnight and they won't go back up overnight. I am actually interested to see where things are going right now which is a good thing.

Heard there is a chance that Orton might not make it back. Something about developing fibromyalgia after his surgery.
Well if you seen a rating it's low. Even with Shane, and the new blood had a good run. But it's time to get the stars back and look forward to summer feuds with what Orton is going to do with this Shane O Mac storyline.
Plus we don't have to put up with a fat boy KO crying on the mic every week.
But one thing I disagree on krazy is Rollins, it's time he jobbed for awhile.
1993 Survivor Series
The Foreign Fanatics [laughing](Yokozuna, Ludvig Borga, and the Quebecers)
vs
The All-Americans (Lex Luger, the Steiners, and the Undertaker)
Mind you, this was full on 1st gen zombie Undertaker on the "All-Americans". I mean WWF circa 1993-94... :flush:[roll]

Anybody else misunderstand my post?
BCF please allow me to introduce myself.......I'm Mr hate a Cena! That means he can't even turn heel now for me to like him. And Orton well he just doesn't fit because he is an odd character. I like him personally but he was best as a crazy loon snapping on everyone or as a goofball(somehow that actually worked) but he is Orton so he is an injury or drunken night away from f'ing up.
Rollins should job? Well let's just agree to disagree.
Oh I knew what you were doing. But your right, the company needs Orton. Now why you would put Cena and Rollins I have no idea, since you said stars.
You need to stop sayin Cena going heel, it's drown out. It's a boring idea and Cena a bad guy would be girly in a already girly era. {the indy fan era}
I can not let you go of the path of indy smarks. I'll bring ya back to mark hood where the money for the company comes from and that is Cena selling gear.
