It would have been funny if the horn honking would have led to Orton hitting an RKO on Bryan, then Triple H and Steph start laying the boots to an unconscious Bryan.
Big Show briefly starts doing the "yes" chant, before realizing he f***ed up...big time.

Why anything any more. Some fat ass drove a truck into a building while some leathery old men yelled at each other about who's coolest and two jackasses signed some legal documents. What the f*** is going on with my life that i'm willing to watch this every week.Seriously, Raw makes me feel like I need to stop being a loser and get some actual hobbies to occupy my time with on Mondays. I find I only pay attention to like 20 minutes of the actual show these days. But Big Show is so crazy, lol. With like actual fire and spirit. It's refreshing.

I'm assuming Big Show couldn't just walk into the building without security tackling him, so he stole a semi-truck and drove it in. I'm not so sure why though. He didn't really accomplish anything other than grand theft auto. how do you know he didn't buy it with his inexplicably large sum of cash in spite of apparently being broke? or gee maybe the same guy in WWE who got him a camera setup gave him the keys to a truck.

I can't really get upset at that segment. Just the mental image of Show using his life savings to rent a truck with the intention of merely distracting Orton looks amazing. Rent a truck? That's his home now. That's where he sleeps. of course; how else does he get from show to show? and apparently being fired gave him enough time to learn how to hijack a freaking satellite.

What I wanna know is at what point did someone look at this segment on paper and say, "this could sell tickets." This was the f***ing go-home show!

Yeah I actually feel really confused too. He drove in a semi-truck just briefly distract Daniel Bryan? Why did Orton just awkwardly start threatening Daniel again while Shawn was talking? And why did no one drop the #pipebomb that Triple H himself has never been face of the company? Wtf was going on? I read this in that DBZ voice over voice.

it's like I said in the RAW thread; I should get fired because it apparently makes you immune to any legal repercussions. Hell, between this and the Lesnar storyline, evidently if you quit your job then attack Triple H you're allowed to sue him. Triple H breached an iron clad contract by firing Show. Show comes out later that night to discuss the severence pay of his contract(I assume that's what makes it iron clad, if Show fulfills his contract then WWE either keeps him on the roster or buys it out for an obscense amount) and when he does Triple H has him attacked by three hired thugs. Big Show was just protecting himself to keep Triple H from calling out more goons

Also, Vince (and yes, to all the people saying that we aren't getting the storyline, I'm fully aware it's probably gonna be Vince backing Show up)doesn't own the police force. If HHH hates Show that much, HAVE HIM ARRESTED!!!

Rent a truck? That's his home now. That's where he sleeps. of course; how else does he get from show to show? and apparently being fired gave him enough time to learn how to hijack a freaking satellite. Those tech classes he took at Wichita state have finally paid off.

I think this whole thing would have been better without Big Show.

Actually the hacking skills are a different story altogether. Remember "Big Apple Takedown"? When our government turned WWE stars into superspies for some reason. Well after Chavo Guerrero was fired Big Show was brought in to be the team's new hacker. Of course since Show was fired that job has been given to Tensai but Show still has all that training so he put it to good use. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}And yes. I own the book. It's a guilty pleasure.

I think this whole thing would have been better without Big Show. And the 2 quick title reigns And the title being vacated And the month of Bryan constantly getting jumped and continuing to "stand up" And Triple H blurring the lines about "face of the company" which is basically saying only certain people can be champion

I think this whole thing would have been better without Big Show. I feel like these past two weeks Big Show has been the best part of the show. He just... gets it. This is such a great role for him. Big jolly guy raising hell.

Daniel Bryan wins and becomes a fighting champion like bret Hart was in his first reign? He could defend the belt against various midcarders

Okay let me break this down the best I can. First of all, Big Show is emotionally unstable and we all have witnessed it. He goes from super happy, to uncontrolled anger, to always sobbing. I think it is weather related but I am not sure. - Big Show gets Iron Clad contract(can't get fired).
- Johnny Ace is an idiot and screws up the contract(means he CAN get fired after all) which says that Big Show must follow orders from authority figures
- Big Show is told to knock out Dusty, Bryan, etc and also screw up the main event of Battle Ground. Which he does
- Big Show gets jumped by the Shield (under order of HHH) and so Big Show defends himself. Knocks out HHH
- Big Show gets fired for no real reason other than defending himself. (HHH was about to pedigree Show)
- Big Show sues HHH/company because he was fired for no good reason and thereby receiving his payday for the rest of the contract.
- Highjacking the feed (or getting in the production truck) is easy, even HBK said that him and HHH did it back in the day and was fun. Plus Big Show needed to vent his injustice.
- Since Big Show was in the production truck area he was able to 'borrow' a truck and distract the contract signing(what else could he have done? he has no job.)

Daniel Bryan wins and becomes a fighting champion like bret Hart was in his first reign? He could defend the belt against various midcarders Absolutely. It would have been better than what we got. Or, have Orton cash in after both Cena and Bryan are incapacitated, allowing for Bryan's big moment to come later. Again, I was completely okay with them holding off until giving the title to him at Survivor Series, and having him hold it till the Rumble or whatever. What I don't like, is when the belt is hot potatoed around, or worse yet...f***ing vacated. Those are two of my biggest pet peeves in wrestling, because I feel it doesn't benefit anyone. Maybe you like that shit, but that's you.

I'd have totally been behind down to Earth fighting champion Daniel Bryan taking on all comers.
