Seth Rollins is kind of useless.

I have no idea what they were thinking with that ending. Why did they even have Bryan come?

[Mozenrath]

I guess the idea was that it needed multiple F-5s, but it also kinda goes along with that Seth for the life of him can't seem to be a decent face. He's too weaseley. That's not even going into him doing stuff that makes the company look bad sometimes on social media, but that's its own can of worms.

[Toilet Paper Roll]

Somehow it's supposed to make us care. Honestly, the RAW title picture is so damn stale if they don't have the aura of Brock defending it then we have a boring title likely held by a boring guy who could be a midcarder next week and not skip a beat.

Rollins lost the Championship years ago, and they just ran the same angles with him as IC champ. Who the hell cares... whats new? Whats changed?

Brock vs Demon Balor could be a legitimate great Mania Match that already has a story behind it and they're gonna kick Finn to the curb, yet again mind you, for f***ing milktoast Shield bullshit.

Someone else in this company needs a f***ing push or the ratings will only worsen.

I thought that was the point, though. To get people angry that Lesnar is this Thanos like figure who supposedly doesn’t care about the business and to get Seth over as an underdog who needs more than one F5 to truly dismantle him.

I get it, the formula is tiring and plaid out, but I’m at least happy it’s with a believable underdog this time and not the dude who’s laid waste to multiple legends and villains in his wake.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

I've played Here Comes The Pain heaps of times, you usually don't win the match after hitting your five finishers straight away.

The hope is he gets the cleanest win any current talent has gotten over Lesnar

My guess is they ran out of time with no overrun. So they decided to cut Bryan and go straight to Brock/Rollins.

[cabbageboy]

It would be beyond hilarious if Rollins came out next week and selected Bryan as his opponent. Heyman did have a point about it being a better match.

Is that cinnamon milktoast? I'm hungry and that doesn't look too bad.

Yeah, but the cinnamon came from Ambrose, so I wouldn't trust it...

Wouldn't shock me. The Jarrett/Elias stuff and the Becky/Ronda stuff did seem to be longer than needed, thinking about it the opening with them all soaking in the fan reaction probably all did them in. USA usually gives them extra time if needed though, maybe this week's Dry Humping on the Beach is more important?

They have 3 months or so..

What they should do is say Seth is training up for the big fight...

So we can have some training montages... *plays 80’s ballad*

This or no buys:

That closing felt as if WWE doesn't have a damned clue what to do with that title anymore. Had Finn won last night, they could have had at least a dozen challengers lined up to face Finn and him either to be built up with each win, or a pool of main-eventers hot-potatoing the title. What does Seth do with the title? He's already had a dozen titles and he hasn't exactly set the world on fire with any of them.

Whatever holding pattern they're in right now is feeling very stale and very unprepared for justifying the vast sums they're supposed to receive, or indeed to compete with upstart promotions run by people who a) know how WWE works and its creative limitations, b) are willing to exploit those weaknesses and c) have the money and the vision to make those networks question their choices.

["Gizzark" Mike Wronglevenay]

I have no sympathy for anything that happens to Seth's character, for some reason.

[Totorob101]

Probably not the most popular opinion but for me Seth is the most overrated person on the roster.

You know what? Finn Balor may be the guy to challenge Daniel Bryan for the title at Wrestlemania. I had actually not even considered that until I read your post about kicking him to the curb. I mean, who else is there on the Smackdown roster? The AJ feud has been done to death.
