And like I said yesterday it is laughable how he they are having him play injured but yet have him at a WM press conference.”

You mean like how HHH appeared at NXT London when he was supposed to be selling a beatdown from Reigns?

Kayfabe is dead, get over it.

They couldn't have used that time. Reigns had some momentum with his brief run as Stone Cold 2.0, which was then absolutely destroyed by atrocious booking in the weeks that followed. I honestly believe there is no way back for Reigns and he will be the next Cena, with everything that comes with - that means being cheered by the kids and women, and booed by everybody else. Any opportunity there was to get him over as a Bryan-esque superface is out the window.

I just finished watching this week's NXT and the first half of the match bored me. Picked up quite nicely after the first fall. The whole match just seemed a bit off. The pace of the match seemed too forced. They knew they had 40+ minutes to fill and they took their time. I can understand why they did it, but I just couldn't find it entertaining.

I can remember a time when WWE got really pissed at how Zack got over with the darling internet fans and punished him weekly getting destroyed by Kane.

No one is expecting HHH to walk around with a neck brace off TV, but people understandably expect storyline consistency on WWE programming. If they don't care about beatdown angles, why should we.

Reigns was never getting over as a Bryan esque babyface as you would need the hardcore fans to go with it. Those fans don't have the same level of respect for him as they do for other guys. Plus they know he's Vince's chosen guy.

The only reason the fans aren't into him is because the IWC has been complaining for the last 15 months nearly about Reigns winning the 2015 Royal Rumble at the expense of the injured Daniel Bryan, aka the Internet's other Boyfriend apart from CM "I do 6 moves and have limited mic skills" Punk.

Randomly refreshing Ticketmaster on the NXT Takeover page and I've ended up with a ticket for Dallas!

On a different topic if I may for a brief moment, I was thinking, who has earned more money over the years, Cena or Taker?

My initial reaction was Taker, but Cena has done very well for himself over the years as well, so I don't know.

It was on the WWE Network, which is still WWE programming. I would imagine the vast majority of that shows audience watch Raw.

MOVEZ MOVEZ MOVEZ MOVEZ MOVEZ!

Who does enough MOVEZ to be acceptable for you?

And after you're done with that question, how about you tell us what exactly about how Roman Reigns character has been portrayed on TV would actually make anyone want to support him?

It's suprising that they're promoting that Wrestlemania will be free this year for new customers. I imagine many will just sign up for the month and cancel straight away. It's not as if people will stay on for Payback

So last night instead of Lesnar v Harper they changed it to Lesner v Harper and Bray Wyatt in a handicap match. Yet Lesnar hit 5 suplexes and a F5 to win the match in under 6 mins and Wyatt was never tagged in lol.

So far Roadblock has only 5 matches (for a 3 hour event) guess more will be added during the show.

Wow it is really 3 hours? I thought it would be 2 hours max as it is basically just a glorified house show

If so, you're waaaaay off the mark.
