Why Wrestling Thread? Why?! Why?!

[Heretic]

The world title went vacant a week after the heel turn.

It didn't have to. Last week the stip was that Bryan would defend against KANE (not Seth) or the title would be vacated. They were writing that now ditched stip at the same meeting they wrote the heel turn.

 

[The Sage]

On one hand, Rollins' delivery was good, and what he was said was fine. But he didn't really answer the question beyond "It was a business decision." Which would be cool, but isn't joining the business you nearly put out of business a poor business decision?

 

[Frico]

Really great heel work from Rollins, loved the "I bought in" line. Just really not a fan of that new theme.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Called it.

 

[Heretic]

Cena, trying to get some shine off the popular guys, like usual.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Oh I politely request that you f**k off Cena.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Promo work was fine, but his reasoning doesn't make much sense.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Called it.

You, me and the entire world called it.

 

[The Sage]

It didn't have to. Last week the stip was that Bryan would defend against KANE (not Seth) or the title would be vacated. They were writing that now ditched stip at the same meeting they wrote the heel turn.

I'm not following you. They wrote that stip in because they were waiting to find out if Bryan would be able to compete at the next PPV. They left the door open for Bryan just in case. They didn't get their answer until the weekend.

Screw Cena. He's ruined Raw and he's gonna ruin MitB.

 

[H.U.S.T.L.E.]

Well it works for me, because it establishes that Rollins was always two-faced and only used people to get to the top. Now that he's there, he isn't going to let anyone else stand in his way.

He proved to be boss that he was one of the best, so then he parlayed his success into the good graces of the boss so he didn't have obstacles places in his way in the future (like Daniel Bryan).

 

[Frico]

Looks like I'll be watching Main Event.

Oh I politely request that you f**k off Cena.

 

[Heretic]

Seriously, Rollins bought in with the losing team and didn't even get a shortcut into the MITB match...didnt even get a shot at Bryans title had he not vacated (which would have been negotiated last week). Rollins made the dumbest business decision of all time. It's not a very good start to his run as a heel.

Ziggler fought Rollins on Smackdown after standing up for The Shield. And he will face Seth once again on Main Event. Wouldn't it make sense for Ziggler to be the tag team partner?

 

[Hunter Rider]

Rollins delivery was very good, he held himself with composure and articulated his points about Reigns and Rollins well, but the reasoning was at best vague.

Cena is so tiresome sticking his ****ing nose into this ****, ugh, what a waste of a chance to give someone else some shine.

 

[JabarR]

I'm still waiting for Paige to turn heel. She's getting no reaction what so ever!

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I seriously feel like dozing off some I'm probably not gonna finish this Raw.

 

[runawayboulder]

Again with these two? Did Emma retire or something?

 

[Hotwire]

With the reason he gave for the turn, I'm actually hoping for this to be a big set-up and Seth will ultimately turn on Evolution and return to The Shield.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Oh and **** Cena.

 

[The Sage]

This match is two weeks past worn out.

 

[Van Petrol]

Couldn't they have just given him the Evolution theme? That theme is awful.

No. Now theoretically he can be handed opportunities rather than bust his hump for them.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I would hate that.
