So, this will be an instance where we're supposed to 'forget' the 30 day rule? 30-day rule really shouldn't apply when it's a matter of not being booked rather than being injured or refusing to wrestle.

In kayfabe Rollins should be super pissed that Lesner has the belt as he's hardly ever there and when he does show up never looks vulnerable giving him zero chances for an opportunist cash in. If Lesner has a few more successful defenses ie RR, WM then Rollins is going to have to cash in the contract in a fair fight lest the contract expires.
I hope the authority addresses this in the coming months. Or maybe Rollins gets annoyed at HHH for giving Brock the title shot in the first place leading to their breakup angle.

Since Brock Lesnar did The Authority a favor by taking the title off Cena, they let Brock defend the title on his terms. It gets heat on both Brock and HHH, as opposed to just having everyone forget that there's a championship.

Ah the shortsightedness of putting you Championship on a part-time guy. RVD taught them nothing.

RVD wasn't a part-timer when he won the championship in 2006, and in his part-time recent runs he's putting people over, not sure what you mean there. As for Brock, I love the idea of him having a monster reign, and from the sounds of things it's just WWE and I assume their financially minded shrewdness that is resulting in Brock not being used more.

Brock and the title both should be special attractions, IMO. Neither should just be expected on TV and PPV, people having to earn a shot at the title or pissing off Brock to draw him out of the killing fields should be what this is all built on. Even when the title is on Cena or Bryan, they should be scouting guys, working tag matches or hyping/building their PPV stuff with only the occasional TV singles match.
However that is also far from giving USA/NBCU what they paid for and they are WWE's master so it won't be happening.

Thanks to Ambrose/Cena being moved up to tonight's Raw...
we now have Ambrose/Rollins inside the Cell, and Orton/Cena for the God-knows-whatieth time.

After some research:
Assuming Ambrose/Rollins goes on as scheduled and no more Hell in a Cell matches are added to the card, Ambrose/Rollins will be the first Hell in a Cell match since the inception of the stipulation not to feature a former Hell in a Cell participant.

That's because about 90% of them have featured The Undertaker or Triple H.

It may also be the first time we've had a match pairing get a second Hell In A Cell match, with Cena v Orton. Last year was close with Punk v Ryback/Heyman almost being an exact rematch of Punk v Ryback the year before.

When you can copy a stipulation from the legendary Test/Steiner feud, you have to do it.

I hope Cesaro wins the Intercontinental title (assuming he'll get a shot at it), give the guy a title folks.
More excited for Ambrose/Rollins now that with them both fresh the outcome is less predicable now. Though I'm still betting on Rollins of course, he's unstoppable.

I know it won't be in a Cell but Big Show v Rusev would be interesting in the Cell I reckon.

I'm hoping Miz wins the U.S. Title and he and Ziggler resume their feud for both titles.

For what it's worth, they're billing Ambrose vs. Rollins/Cena vs. Orton as a double main event.
