Got to say that I have not been impressed with much of anything since Mania. Neville's matches have been great, but I don't really trust WWE to handle him properly, given the recent history of some of the NXT call-ups. But just all around there isn't much going on story-line wise that I care about. I cancelled the WWE Network a few weeks ago. Maybe if the build towards Summer Slam is good enough I'll start paying for it again, but right now WWE does not deserve my money.
My game library ranges from Mario Kart to Call of Duty to Tales of Xillia to Diablo 3 to Forza. To me gaming is about having fun - not blindly supporting only one company while thumbing your nose at "the evil other systems."

I have been tempted but I watch alot of the old WCW and ECW so for me that's worth 10 bucks a month.

Again, I really get NO enjoyment of any storylines whatsoever, what I DO enjoy are fast technical or rough matches, I gotta say, as much as I despise Seth Rollins (or the Gimick they gave him) the Match VS Dean Ambrose was awesome!

Well I did see a few matches on hulu plus on my ps tv regarding kotr raw and I was surprised Bray Wyatt took out Ryback after he defeated his brother Bo Dallas in the tournament...

Bo and Ryback weren't in the KotR tournment.

Oopsie, my bad I thought the other way around. My mind is so busy right now.
So the rumor going around is that Reigns and Ambrose are going to turn heel at Payback and attack Orton so anyone thinking of a Shield reunion?
Also Jeff Jerret has an impressive roster for his Global Force Wrestling. Former WWE Superstars like Chris Masters, Justin Gabriel and Luke Gallows have signed. Jim Ross sounds like he might be a part of this, so I am wondering what are you guys thoughts on this.
According to Double J he is not looking to compete with WWE but rather Co exist. He has stated several times that the worst thing for the Wrestling business was WWE buying out WCW killing an alternative to WWE. Now as for TNA he says they are fair game and his goal is to be the number 2 wrestling company in the US.
Well at times I question why I still get excited for WWE PPVs. I have to say the best thing about Payback was the Rusev/Cena match and the Ryback/Wyatt match. The Fatal Fourway was a complete joke with Kane and J and J getting involved waaay to much they might as well just have thrown them into the match as well. The only thing I liked was the "Sheild" reunion. Other then that a big snorefest.

Imagine if last night's match between Cena and Rusev was the first time they had fought. It would have come off as an amazing match. Yet because it was the fourth time I feel like it nobody was caring by that point. It was a great match though.
The 4 way was beyond chaotic, almost the entire time. The thing about this match, most people know that the WWE title rarely changes hands between Mania and Summerslam. That's what makes this time of year boring. The only reason I was so invested in that match was the thought of Dean Ambrose possibly becoming WWE champion.
My favorite match of the night was probably the tag team title match. Kidd and Cesaro are amazing together. I'm really excited to see the tag team title chamber match. I wonder if it will be 3 teams, 2 people start and the other 4 in a pod. Or 6 teams with 2 teams starting and 4 teams each in a pod. What teams would everyone like to see in this match?
What's so bad about it? Isn't it just as easily faked as every other leg/elbow drop/stomp?
Or is it too "racistic hooligan"?!
It's because it's a high impact move to the head or appears to be so. Ever since the whole Chris Benoit thing WWE is very weary of high impact moves to the head. That's one reason we don't see the Hardcore Championship come b.ack and not to many chair shots rto the head etc. Also I they were afraid kids would copy it.

@Tasuki Thanks for clearing things up for me, even though - personally - I still don't see it. I noticed that everything got somewhat "tame" compared to the last time I actively watched years ago, but being afraid of children trying to copy it? But powerbombin' away with your friends ain't dangerous for your head right? And whats with those "straight" punches (Superman Punch) and kicks (Superkicks) to the head? I mean there's some obvious impact audible and I can imagine you'd need to be really careful to not really cause some serious damage to the jaw/neck. Anyways... Im thinking way too much about it!
