Over the last day, the former Tyler Black, current FCW wrestler Seth Rollins has indicated on Twitter that he is in Louisville, KY which is the site of tonight's RAW. "Things are about to get interesting." "Haven't missed airports....or delays one single bit." "Read Lenny Bruce is Dead on the way to Louisville. Hard to take much away from it, but it was entertaining. Anyone read it?" twitter.com/WWERollinsSo could tonight be the night he debuts on Raw? Is he just starting on the road to work dark matches? Did he just randomly decide to travel to Kentucky? I guess we shall see tonight. |

Probably just there to hang out or work a dark match. Can't see them bringing him to the main roster so soon. Besides there isn't much for him to do on Raw at the moment, unless they want to turn him heel and have him feud with DB for the US title... Hmm.

I haven't caught up a lot on my FCW lately, so all I've seen of him so far is an interview with Alicia Fox's sister, which didn't really indicate if he was face or heel. It sounded more faceish to me though. And I saw his match against Richie Steamboat, in which he seemed to be playing the heel. |

Odds are I'm totally over thinking this and all, but... {Spoiler}The original plan (if you believe PWI, which I tend to do) is that Rollins was supposed to be on NXT 4 with Cole as his mentor, and it was shot down at the last minute. What if this is where they decided to go with that pairing?
Cole and Lawler can't be on the same announce crew now. Not after Cole cost him the WWE Championship. What if Rollins ends up being Cole's guy who is the "anti-internet sensation" or something? Like, the guy Cole brings in to combat the people he doesn't approve of.
There wouldn't be a missing spot on commentary. You'd have Lawler and Punk (who they let end the show alone in the booth last week) and Cole could be back around for NXT on Tuesdays. Cole could be managing Rollins as a heel just to get Rollins in to the fold, and then as Punk heals up and gets ready to return to the ring, Cole is vanquished and goes back to being Cole in the announce booth on Raw in 2-3 months. ...k, maybe I'm WAY over thinking it. Still, it would be fun. |

If he's debuting on the main roster, these could be the realistic ways he would debut:
A) as an open challenger to an open challenge declared by The Miz (or a lackey jobber type who he brings out to challenge him, a la Cena's debut.
B) randomly attacks Bryan after a match, or saves him. Depending on which way they'll turn him.

Lol his match with Richie Steamboat on youtube is worth watching just to listen to the crowd commentary. The actual match was also good. |

Still, it would be fun. This would be pretty brilliant stuff. Cole as a heel manager would be pure greatness. That would let Rollins debut by destroying King and then moving on to other people on Cole's hate-list. I have a feeling that they'll just be taking King out of the booth tonight, instead, though. |

Sign me up for this idea. The match with Daniel Bryan would be a thing of beauty. |

The only thing that makes me think that he won't be wrestling on TV is that if they are going to bring him up, wouldn't it be on Smackdown, which needs roster help.

If Punk, Daniel Bryan, and Kaval had to spend months in FCW before getting the call up...they certainly wouldn't debut Tyler Black after one match at FCW.

I thought he was there longer. Well, still, they debuted him on NXT and not on one of the main shows. I think we all agree that Bryan Danielson and Tyler Black aren't even close to being in the same league. |

I think we all agree that Bryan Danielson and Tyler Black aren't even close to being in the same league. Tyler has the psychology and the moveset, and despite being a 7/10 on the Sabu Sloppiness Scale even right before he won the ROH title, he had certainly cleaned up a lot during his reign. I do, however, think that he isn't nearly ready for TV yet. LOL, remember when Punk first signed and they even let him have some matches on TV, and management was horrified at how sloppy he was? |

Putting him in a dark match makes sense to me.
