Nevermind, WWE.com edited the part out that said he had to win.

I just watched the Shane McMahon segment, and am I right that they didn't stipulate Shane had to win his match to get control of Raw? Vince said he just needed to have the match with Undertaker?

At one time they had brand specific PPVs, except WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, etc.

Then they dropped that and had matches from each brand on each PPV, sometimes doing brand vs. brand matches.

how the hell is that even possible?

edit: ok i found out how

Care to explain?

My thought was he just translated it backwards to get the name...

Bryan was cleared to return, so his "retirement" angle has to be a work, no? Who interrupts his speech tonight to set up a Mania bout?

I'm pretty sure there was once a "if you haven't entered the ring before the next entrant, you're eliminated" rule.

Also Finlay was once DQed for saving Hornswoggle in the Rumble, or vice versa.

I want to know whose idea it was. Unless Charlotte or Ric suggested it themselves, it seems douchey.

Reigns sells out and wins the title, beating Ambrose in the finals, then Ambrose wins the Rumble?

Throw in the (remote) possibility of Rollins coming back in time for Mania and making it a triple threat.

I missed it. What was the storyline reason given for Cena missing the tournament?

Ideally, WWE forgets Sheamus has the MITB. I've been Googling "Why is Sheamus carrying a briefcase?" for months now and have gotten nothing.

They buried Roman and to a greater extent the entire Hell In A Cell concept by having Wyatt lose IN THE MOST DANGEROUS STRUCTURE IN WWE and come out at the end of the night like nothing happened.

WWE video game out tonight. Anyone downloading this?

They are, IMO. The tensions with the authority, the wrestling two matches per show, the white gear, the wrestling style, the Shield "reunion"... It's just a slow build.

Was anyone else surprised when they said it was the tenth Ironman match in WWE history? I thought it was the third (Bret-Shawn and Angle-Lesnar were the only ones I had in mind). Then I looked up the others and had seen them all, but totally forgot they existed.

I couldn't get into the tag tournament because I wasn't sure why we should care. It wasn't for a shot at the titles or anything. It was just a tag tournament for its own sake. I'm not sold on Apollo Crews. He reminds me of Bobby Lashley (though a better worker) and his name sounds like Apollo Creed....

Weak Takeover so far. Why are we supposed to care about the Dusty Rhodes Cup?

Go Cubbies.

Not picking on Jedi but I was always curious as to why people (and there is a bunch) consider Vol. 3 classic. The bolds are IMO the only decent tracks. Anyone else concur or disagree? No. Title Producer(s) Length 1. "Hova Song (Intro)" K-Rob 2:21 2. "So Ghetto" DJ Premier 4:01 3. "Do It Again (Put ...

LOS METS!!!!!

Anyone want to join our fantasy fed? It started in the early 90s and was at one time ECW's official e-fed. Just some good fun where you create and roleplay a wrestler. This isn't like most others, though, because there's no need to spend time writing a lot of shit. It's chat room/dice based for a fe...

Loses to Cena, retains against Sting.

The real question is when are they doing HHH vs. Rollins? Doesn't seem like that'll be a Mania thing. Survivor Series? Before?

Seth Rollins should be fired for having such disgusting taste in women.

Obv the song is trash but I'm glad it happened because the kinds of young(ish) rappers that usually ask vets like these for features can only pay in dap, drink tickets from SOBs and vague references to preserving da kulcha. This is a tangible check for them. mac couldn't have dropped more than a g ...

Whoa, can you post it here?

Disclaimer - this is the nerdiest thing I've ever been a part of, but it seems to have a following. Blue Pants tweets about the Mega Ran stuff a lot.

Well, I guess we can brace ourselves for the 2 in 22-2.

Blue Pants tweeted about some obscure underground music I did, so I'm all for her.

I couldn't get into Joe-Corbin or Apollo Crews.

The biggest gripe is that whole 2Pac bullshit. Eazy died in '95. Pac was still in jail and didn't join Death Row until Dec or Jan of 96. Yet in the movie he is seen doing "Hail Mary," a track recorded on his 2nd Death Row released and recorded in Aug 96, all of this way after he did All Eyes On Me....

Action Bronson reportedly confronted by Wu Tang outside the wake

lol... this whole thing seems staged at this point

I kinda bought Lesnar being "scared" there because of the surprise factor and the fact he was tired after throwing Rollins around the ring all night. That said, I'm not so sure about them having a match at Summerslam. Would would win? If Lesnar beats Taker again, big deal. If Taker beats Lesnar... ...
