WWE News: Big Ryback Match, New GM?, Bryan @ WM?, and more.

[RIHT]

Here's some WWE news and rumors:

According to a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, there is some speculation that WWE might be building to a Ryback vs Triple H match in the near future. While the match isn't set in stone, there is talk of it taking place at the 2015 Royal Rumble event.

...Daniel Bryan is being included in all of the WrestleMania 31 promotional material but is not currently in the plans for the big event. It was noted by a source that the main reason Bryan was kept on the promotional material was to help with local ticket sales and exposure... Bryan had a strong buzz in the Bay Area due to his relationship with the World Series champions, the San Francisco Giants.

In an interview with ChicagoNow.com, regarding the rumor of him becoming Raw GM, Mick Foley said the following,

"I think their needs to be a balance of power. I think on screen the Authority has had too much power for too long and it’s been a little heel heavy. I would hope I am on that short list of candidates for that type of role if it does arise. And if it was brought forth to me, I think I would do it. And with my personality I think I can bring a fresh attitude towards that "higher power".

Santino Marella is scheduled to return to WWE RAW this Monday with guest star Larry The Cable Guy. They will be promoting Jingle All the Way 2.

WWE is advertising WWE is advertising Roman Reigns for live events starting in mid-December. The former Shield member is currently set to return at the WWE live event at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center in Sioux Falls, SD on Saturday, December 20th.

There was some speculation that John Cena may get his WWE World Heavyweight Title shot against Brock Lesnar at December's TLC pay-per-view as Lesnar will be returning to TV next month.

It hasn't been confirmed that Cena vs. Lesnar won't take place at TLC but Cena is also being considered for a Tables, Ladders & Chairs three-way with Seth Rollins and Randy Orton.

Either way, it looks like Rollins will be in the Tables, Ladders & Chairs match. If the three-way doesn't happen, the other option being considered is Rollins vs. Orton.

Here's a fact I learned: Billy Gunn went to college on a Rodeo scholarship.

Also, there's speculation on New Nation's debut at SS, AJ leaving again, which probably won't happen, CM Punk getting in an internet brawl with some punk band guy, etc. Anyways, there you go. Minus the fact, everything is from NoDQ.com Anyways, what do you think?

There are rodeo scholarships? Sounds like bull.

I wouldn't be against Mick Foley replacing the Authority as an on-screen boss character. I loved the Commissioner Foley era.

I would take that news lightly. Triple H wanted to lead the Nexus, face John Cena at WM (after 22), feud with Vince over the company, face Big Show, and most recently, face Roman Reigns at Summerslam, and none of those ever happened, at least not as of the post. However, Ryback being pushed back up so high the card is very promising. I mean, seriously, not even Reigns has faced HHH yet, and it took Bryan a whole year of rising up to the top.

For some reason, I expect a dumb Bull Dempsey joke to be made solely because the word "bull" was used.

It totally did! HHH squashed Bryan in 30 seconds flat and then won the title AMIRITEGUISE??

Would be nice to go to this, especially if it's Roman Reigns big return. The Premier Center is brand new as well, and a WWE event there would be pretty awesome to attend. I went to a couple live events here like ten years or so ago(got to see Lesnar vs. Triple H) but its been a while, and I'd love to see the new house show set up. Eh, who knows.

This Ryback/Roman Reigns showdown is fascinating. The office seems to be putting the rocket on Ryback again, even though it seemed all but certain we'd see that go to Reigns. This Royal Rumble is going to be really good stuff...

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

I'm pretty sure it's decently known that Billy Gunn went to college on a rodeo scholarship. JR used to say it every week on commentary around 96, and it was the basis of the Smoking Gunns gimmick to begin with.

*Ryback and Reigns staredown*

Crowd: "AMBROSE! AMBROSE! AMBROSE!"

[Mondai Rogue]

The CM Punk thing is mildly interesting/amusing if only for the dirtbag (Ben Weasel of the Screeching Wease) using the line "In fact I was hugging those ladies with my fists" as a defence for punching two women at SXSW in 2011.

[Ecks Ecks Ringout Ecks Ecks]

Though I am beyond tired of authority figures after years and years (and years and years and years and years) of the same shtick, if we must have one, I'd prefer Foley over just about everyone else.

Or the fact that the only time Trips was able to beat Bryan in a fight was when Bryan had been jumped, or had his hands cuffed behind his back. And there's also Extreme Rules and Payback. He also sold Brie's slap like it was a shotgun.

Yeah, I remember it aswell.  I had no idea what it meant but it sounded cool as a kid.

I remember hearing that too. I always thought it was a random bullshit fact JR made up just to help build a character. Guess I was wrong
