Why? The Rock was very much a part time champ who did sweet FA.

I'd rather see a part time Lesnar as champ ahead of almost anyone in either ladder match.

Having said that Bray Wyatt would be a very interesting champ but as I have said before I would have my money on Cena with Randy Orton the other possible winner just for something that has been done to death. Hope I'm wrong and pray they don't do something idiotic and put the strap on Kane.

Reigns is obviously being built but if they put the strap on a guy who is in his infancy as a singles competitor it reeks of a lack of booking direction.

Stuff it put the strap on BO!!!! :D

Nothing wrong with that but I don't think they will do it.

The VaudeVillians are classic. I'm not sure that there will be longevity in their gimmick but it is pretty entertaining. Hope the company give them a good run. They have got over in an instant on NXT.

I'm becoming a much bigger fan of NXT. Young wrestlers working hard to earn a spot on the main wrestling program.

On the flip side, who the hell is Renee Young and who did she blow to get on commentary. She is pathetic and reminds me a lot of Kelly Underwood. :vom:

In theory yes, but The Rock says it doesn't matter. (Pun intended)

Who else has a feeling that the WWE will pull a funny ending and split the titles by making 2 superstars grab different belts?

Would be sensational if they did. Been saying for a while they should go back to WWE and World Champions. Then once a year at one of their lesser PPVs they could have a Champion v Champion match for the right to be called Wrestler of the year or Champion of Champions.

Who your tip Devo? Place your bet!

Cena $1.50
RKO $ 3
Reigns $ 5
Cesaro $ 8
Kane $10
Shamus $12
Bray $15
No result/Schmozzle $20
H3 $ 25
Bryant $50
Someone who wins the first MIB match $100
The Miz $1,000
George " The Animal" Steele $ 10,000
Eric Young $100,000
Stephanie $ 7.50

As much as I hate to say it, the only thing I see happening at the end of the night is Cena walking away with the titles. Hope to god I am wrong though. With the amount of main eventers very thin at the moment, you would think WWE would back there main man to help them get through the next couple months.
Would love to see Wyatt walk away with the titles but to be 100% honest, I would be happy with anyone winning other than Mr 5 moves of doom.
Who is your tip WW?

Cena will win I reckon. I'd rather Cena than Randy.

A miraculous Bryant return to win the other one and cash in on Cena to turn him heel would be my dream scenario.

The issue would be that Brock has very little appearances & matches in his contract. Even as a part-time champion, The Rock was on Raw and Smackdown every week for a reasonable amount of time.

and the rock was only the WWE champ, not both . Being both I would think the fans would expect to see the champ every night.

Of course Super Cena had to win the titles...again. What a disgrace. Other than that, it wasn't a bad match, but no matter how good the match was I can't walk away a happy man.

Seriously though, if Reigns/Cesaro/Wyatt won, and jobbed to Lesnar at Summerslam, you'd be mighty pissed they dropped the belt to a part timer. Given that it's Cena, we'll probably be happy when Lesnar beats him.

I don't see the point of Cena dropping the title to Lesnar though. What's the point of Cena having a 1 month reign for his 15th time as the champ? I would've rathered Brock enter the MITB match and win and hold in until WM where he drops it to someone. Fewer title cganges make the title more prestigious in my opinion.

You're right re fewer title changes, but can anyone else see a decent story heading into wrestlemania next year?
Cena-wyatt has been fun, but done to death
Reigns-hhh won't last that long, it'll finish at Summerslam
Rollins-ambrose not big enough to be a draw card
Daniel Bryan v authority is already stale

Now picture this, keeping in mind the Cena chubby wwe has:
Lesnar returns and challenges at Summerslam. Beats cena for the gold, in his (Lesnar's) other appearances between now and then, he beats Cena, let's say twice, because there's not too many Lesnar appearances happening, and the story going into Mania season is Cena wanting revenge, and a shot at immortality, not as the guy who beat the guy that beat Taker, but the guy who equalled Flair's title reigns.
Lesnar says no, Cena enters and wins the rumble (equalling the Rumble victories record), and goes over at Wrestlemania.
Lesnar then goes away hopefully for good, and these other guys (reigns ambrose Rollins Cesaro bray wyatt) who have hopefully been booked properly in the few months in between, can have a real crack, without WWE having to pander to a part timer.

Everyone knew Cena was going to win...
It was a foregone conclusion. Cena never loses matches like these.
