Ordinarily I would be very happy about this, but at the moment WWE is going through some changes, none of the new talent are being used properly, and the older talent are getting less popular by the week and yet are being pushed even more. For anyone that saw hell in a cell, Orton vs Cena may as well have been a normal street fight, the structure was barely used, unlike Rollins vs Ambrose, but neither of them are good enough on the mic.
Ziggler, Cesaro, Sheamus, Wyatt and Rusev are the guys they should be pushing hard right now, not as midcard belt holders, but as main event showstoppers.
Bryan and Reigns are 2 of the biggest babyfaces they have right now, and both are injured. Punk left, Batista left, Orton prefers to be a heel, Lesnar only shows up every other month, and they have too many wrestlers who have stupid gimmicks and are fodder for the main eventers (Adam Rose, Bo Dallas, Slater Gator, Damien Mizdow to name a few)
Combine this with the failings of TNA and the world of professional wrestling 'sports entertainment' is in a bad place right now
Keep your eyes peeled for Lucha Underground ...
Heard about it, had its first show this past weekend with John Morrison featuring
anyone looking forward to the SS PPV tonight? It's free in 190+ countries and Sky reckon we will still pay 14.95 for the privilege! I'm hoping the rumours are true about the imminent arrival of a certain face paint loving WCW star...
Sting's entrance was intense, how did you know Sam?
It was all over twitter yesterday, people had seen him in St Louis and I guessed they put 2 and 2 together and for once it made 4
All around it was an awesome Survivor Series, Cena got his head punched clean off his body, Ziggler was made to look like a wrestling god and Bray vs Dean at TLC will be epic
Now all I want is HHH vs Sting and a Taker vs Brock rematch for Wrestlemania and it'll be perfect
I think taker is done to be honest. And I am still mythed as to why lesner has been allowed to go for so long without a title defence when Bryan had to forfeit because he couldn't defend for more than 30 days? They need consistency, I don't thing sting has joined wwe to be a wrestler, got a feeling he might be more of a figure head, but wrestle occasionally, maybe not at first but in the long term. I heard Stephanie was pregnant again so her and HHH are taking some time out, probably just a rumour though.
The I guess with Lesnar it's the fat that he can wrestle, but no-one has stepped up to the plate, whereas Bryan is injured and can't compete. I hope Taker has one last match in him, he should go out on a high and pinning Lesnar at WM would be poetic, but I doubt it'll happen. I have read that sting may well become GM like he was in TNA, but I really hope we get to see the Stinger Splash in WWE, even if it's just to hear Cole go mental over an incredibly basic move
The problem is they are waiting for Reigns and Bryan to recover, and then we will see more storyline progression. Wyatt vs Bryan never really reached a conclusion as Bryan had to fill the gap left by Punk. Reigns will be pushed as the new Rock /Cena but his injury means they are pushed for time, I reckon he'll win the Rumble and face Lesnar at WM, but upon winning Rollins will cash in and take the gold. Sting vs HHH is a given surely, but I don't know if they'll hold out til WM. Rock vs HHH was teased a month back, so another angle could be Sting vs HHH at the rumble and then Sting vs Taker at WM. Hogan and Stone Cold are two more names rumoured to be training for WM, and you can't rule out a Batista return. This is all without mentioning Cena, Ambrose, Ziggler and Orton, or any stars on TNA who don't sign new contracts and end up in WWE.
Oh and then you have Sami Zayn and Adrian Neville who will probably be on the main roster by then too.
Weirdly I think they currently have too many people they are trying to portray as main eventers and it's all one big mess right now, they need to start pushing the right guys and start pushing them now
Sting v HHH will be a WM match, can't see it being anything else - Daniel Bryan is still an age away from in-ring which is why they've done what they've done (no spoilers!) - Reigns is so dull, agree that Ambrose is the best one out of the shield.

Rollins is better IMO.
Got a massive opportunity being top heel on the roster now with the departure of the Authority. ( Lesnar is top but he's never there)
NXT is meant to be the better show. I saw one of their specials and didn't fast forward any of it which is some compliment! I managed to do survivor series in about 30 minutes. God knows why I keep watching it!
I actually stayed up and watched survivor series, I wasn't that disappointed best live show for a while, even the last wrestlemania was poo. I preferred it when survivor series was just team matches and when the royal rumble was more rumble focused and king of the ring was the whole tournament and when there was just 5 annual pay per views not one every month. I think they need to tighten the rosta and go back to old school.

amazes me that people (well grown men really) actually watch this, can understand taking your kids etc

Dean Ambrose is a MUCH more interesting character if we're looking at those who came out of The Shield.
