Either he was just to careless to beat the test or he's being hung out to dry for something.”

Either way Romans not a good guy his not a bad guy his a stupid guy for whatever his been taking that's made him fail the wellness test. Such a shame as I was just about to praise him for his match with Seth at MITB also I still hope this Shield triple threat still happens at Battleground although the match is more worthy of taking place at Summerslam.

Reigns will be back before Battleground. His absence will be tricky to explain. An off-screen injury angle? The truth? Broken GPS? Something else?

Expect that Lesnar might be getting the winner at Summerslam too which is the reason why they've actually gone with it here. Thinking about it, I wouldn't have actually minded a Shield/Lesnar match for that matter, all have history together and it'd tie in well.

Could easily argue both points though. Can see why it's happening here but a match like this could easily be a headliner at a Summerslam or even Wrestlemania considering the history/story. Interesting one, although I agree a bit on the actual point of long builds in general. It's why I'm terrified they're going to f*ck up Bayley/Sasha when it happens on the main roster.”

Personally don't want Lesnar anywhere near the title, don't want another part time champ.

I know. I really do debate why she's being given such a lengthy run with the belt even though the Divas belt got retired before she lost it.

If her last name wasent Flair she would not have been champion this long.

Yeah but they went silent on the swear words at the start. Was that the same live? If not its disgraceful they are doing this on a service fans pay for.

The ending sucked. You could see it a mile off they would do this. Just restart the match till we have a winner would have been better.

WWE has already announced why Roman Reigns will not be there for a month.

True, not everyone has the internet and WWE most likely won't mention it on TV, but most people who watch WWE and attend shows will know why Roman Reigns isn't there.

Well they shouldnt be rewarding him for bad behaviour.

Im very disapointed in Roman for this and yes it is his fault.

But WWE is weird, I remember the time Orton got a 60 day for a second Violation and what happened when he came back? They put the bloody World title on him.

I was thinking they'd have a different on screen angle to explain his absence. We'll have to see how it gets played out. I'm sure WWE are glad they made that Battleground main event before he was suspended and he'll be back before then. Timing worked on their side there. Silver lining and all that. Well planned out.

If they had any balls, they would use the truth to create an angle for his character.

I'm calling a 'who was his supplier' angle to kick off Attitude Era 2.0. Turns out to be ultimate troll John Cena, who has been supplying the guys for years...

Personally it would be one hell of a suprise if they had Kurt Angle show up and win the US title on his first night back thats if he signs back with WWE.

He had talk 8 weeks ago and be interesting if he came back.

Did Money in the Bak have problems during the preshow?

I tried to watch it monday morning and I noticed there was no audio during the intro think it lasted 10 seconds. At first thought my audio lead had played up but watched it downstairs this morning and it did exactly the same thing.

Mind you I didnt watch the whole thing monday because only wanted to see the pre show matches but today I noticed the video cut out during Rene talking when there was 4 mins left. So thought must be my end so went back to watch it and nope exactly the same problem.

Then you better get ready, July 4th is a Monday after all. I am calling it now Rusev and Lana will come out say something along the lines of "Due to today being America's birthday, your United States Champion is issuing a challenge to anybody to come out and face him for the Championship." Just as everyone is expecting Titus, Cena, Swagger or whoever else this cranks up. https://youtu.be/x08uWrZTVE8

But remember the WWE is not run for the benefit of the fans, its not even run anymore for the benefit of the McMahon family. The WWE today is run for the benefit of NBC and the main 'marketing partners' of Mattel, Toy r Us and Lionsgate.

I just can't see Mattel making & Toys r Us selling a 'Wellbeing Reigns' action figures.

To be honest I thought he had been released ages ago, keep forgetting he is there and why is he still there lol

Graves should be on Raw, he is a great heel commentator.
