But seriously, just how quickly does The Shield need to bury the entire midcard for Bryan to have time to mainevent?

Will some midcarders foil her plan and actually beat the Shield before they get to Bryan or will it turn into a DQ brawl fest?

I'd hardly call being outnumbered in a 3-on-1 situation a burial. Logically, no one should win against those odds.

It's 3-on-1 at a time so I'm not sure I'd call that burying. They'll probably just tell the story of The Shield destroying people at the start, one guy wearing them down a lot and getting very close to winning but just coming up short but leaving them very tired and allowing Bryan to overcome the odds.

And then Bryan gets RKO'd OUTTA NOWHERE!

Oh no I'm not meaning burial literally, just like the go-to squash match hyperbole. I mean more like, even if it's 3 on 1, are they going to spam their finisher like they are on a video game?

[CH Punk]

Jack Swagger vs. Santino Marella is up next. Zeb Colter cuts a promo before the match and says Swagger's opponent is an immigrant. Santino ends up winning with a roll up.

[Deleted]

Holy hell, they're actually doing that, "Everyone faces the Shield in one night," idea. I've so been wanting to see that.

[fw91]

11 on 3? that could take up 3/4 of the show

[Instant Classic]

I'm fairly new here, so what's with the Lillian love?

[rnrk supports BLM]

RVD was one of the 10 guys who helped Bryan last night, wasn't he? I imagine he'll get to put up more of a fight instead of being completely squashed, unless Del Rio attacks him before the match or something.

[Wolf Hurricane]

I wanna hear more about John Cena's app.

[mrjl]

frankly, the 11 on 3 gauntlet should piss off the Shield as much as the faces. They'd have to be idiots not to realize they will get worn down eventually.

It's generally the first spoiler that gets posted every week and we have nothing to react to until the spoiler after that comes. As we are mostly the equivalent to small kids on sugar, we cannot just wait in silence and thus, well, Lilian. There may have been one or two spoiler threads in particular that helped establish the trend with an extra bit of ridiculousness, but I don't remember exactly.

Maybe it's a faint first sign that could give The Shield fuel to ditch Corporate H's Facgime later down the line.

I think it really got started on a couple of threads where it took a while for them to post any spoilers after Lillian entering, so people joked that that was the entire show. Basically, Lillian = new boom period.

* Ryback comes out with Paul Heyman and Curtis Axel. His opponent is some local guy named Nick from Cincinnati. Paul Heyman speaks and says that we know the big news - He's the best in the world. He would like to give credit to CM Punk for giving him all he could handle at Night of Champions. He says our hero at Night of Champions wasn't CM Punk and the winner of the match was Paul Heyman. He could not have done it without his hero. Ryback says Paul is gracious and doesn't need to be picked on by Punk. Ryback said he hates bullies. Ryback says Nick tried to intimidate little kids and wants him to intimidate Ryback. Ryback squashes the guy & picks up the victory in less than two minutes.

Its back ladies and gentlemen.

So let me get this straight:

The Shield will be in the ring at once, but there will only be one face at a time, yes?

Yeah... Be a star, Nick from Cincinnati.

[Bootista]

Nick From Cincinnati? Who's next Jake from State Farm?

* Randy Orton comes out. He says at Night of Champions, Daniel Bryan & Scott Armstrong conspired to steal the WWE Title from him. He takes all the blame and says the last two years he went deep down and thought we and the company wanted him to be like John Cena. He said he locked the way the viper because he thought that's what everyone wanted. He said he want back to the viper that he was 3 years ago and made an example out of The Miz so we'd know who he really and truly is. The recap from RAW is shown and Orton said let that stand to a warning to anyone who thinks they will get in his path. He said after Battleground he will be champion and he is going to end the war between himself & Daniel Bryan. He promises to be our, no, not ours, once again promises to be his WWE Champion. The Shield comes out for their Gauntlet Match.

* The Shield's first opponent is Darren Young and they destroy him. Titus O'Neil is out next and he fights them off but eventually they beat him down and pin him. Dolph Ziggler is out next but he also gets overpowered. He finally fights back and takes them out one by one but gets counted out and loses after a spear from Roman Reigns.

All the heels are hypocritical assholes that are hard to cheer for and I like it.
