Another possibility to play the Rock role is Christian. HHH: "Allow me to introduce you to the new face of the WWE"  |

I almost think Survivor Series 2013 will be when they do a title tournament. Vacant will hold the Championship until then. That's really far off. I can't see them doing that. Unless HHH kayfabe wise is taking the whole "Corporate Champion" thing that seriously. |

Unless HHH kayfabe wise is taking the whole "Corporate Champion" thing that seriously. By no means is it "far off." There's been quite a few vacancies that have gone for well past a month (teetering on two months)... At Battleground, we will probably get the modern twist on the Judgement Day finish. |

Would love a one-night tournament.
Something like
Punk
Ryback__ Ryback
Cody
Goldust__ Cody _____ Cody
Show
Orton__ Orton
Bryan
Dolph__ Bryan _____ Bryan
Also do RVD vs. ADR in a street fight and USOS vs. The Shield for Tag Titles
Potential PPV of the year!

I do think Cody coming back to screw D-Bry in a tourny final would be awesome, but after a day or so it would be like "OK, so Cody is champ, but there's no way he could beat Cena, Orton, Ryback, Kane, Show, etc, etc." I like Cody. I like the Rhodes family. But, Cody doesn't scream WWE Champion. Especially when there's guys on the roster that you know would/could/have dominate him. |

Bryan could also win, followed by shaking Cody's hand in a show of solidarity. I just think a tournament at this time would bring a lot of intrigue to a PPV that probably wasn't meant to be more than just filler. |

I'm telling you guys, if they're going to do a tourney it won't be at Battleground (filler). It will be at Survivor Series. Battleground will have the Judgement Day 2.0 ending. |

Punk? Not at all. Yes he's one of those "works better as a heel" guys...but I just don't see it working in this instance. Plus they just got done turning him face because his latest heel turn flopped. The people don't want to boo him in WWE because there is always someone they hate more. |

It's kinda Russo-ian...but...it might work. Of course it's Russo-ian, he booked Deadly Game and I just stuck Cody in the Rock's spot. You magnificent bastard! hahaha |

Is that report of Vince wanting a blue dot over Christian's face true or something a dirtsheet made up for the lolz.

I'd book it like this...
Quarter Finals
Bryan vs Rollins (Bryan wins)
Ambrose vs Ziggler (Ambrose wins)
Orton vs Santino (Orton wins, and the commentators emphasise how big a mismatch this was. HHH will swear that the draw was made randomly with the best eight superstars in the company).
Big Show vs Hornswoggle (Stephanie demands that the Big Show willingly loses. Big Show refuses, but she threatens him with dismissal. He reluctantly agrees and Hornswoggle gets the win. The commentators say how humiliating this is for Big Show and how the tournament is being skewed in Orton's favour).
Semi-Finals
Bryan vs Ambrose (Bryan wins).
Orton vs Hornswoggle (Orton wins with a brutal punt to the head after about 4 seconds of the match).
Final
Bryan vs Orton (Bryan puts up a hell of a fight. The commentators say that Bryan has been through two intense matches, while Orton breezed by Santino and Hornswoggle. Bryan tries his best, but HHH continously alters the rules to favour Orton. Orton uses a chair. HHH says it's now a no-DQ match. Bryan is about to use the chair. HHH announces that the no-DQ rule has been rescinded. The SHIELD interfere and give Bryan a beating. HHH says it's now a Street Fight. Orton gets the win and the title).

Listening to a podcast about the Deadly Games tournament and other ones WWE/F has held makes me not sold on this. Tournaments in one night are usually a good way to burn out most crowds.

That's why they should do what I suggested and have a narrative running through the tournament. Under my plan, Bryan, Ziggler, Ambrose and Rollins all get over, by having some high quality matches, while Orton is portrayed as a corporate favourite being given the absurdly easy route to the final, and the odds stacked in his favour in the final. |
