I don't think it's gonna be Joe. Since Cena is taking time off, whoever it is is gonna win. Joe is just now starting his feud with Balor so I can't see it being him. I also don't think its going to be somebody surprising, or else they would've made a bigger deal out of it.

I think it's gonna be somebody predictable like Ambrose or Ziggler. If it's Ziggler, the best we can hope for is a heel turn and he "puts Cena out of action".

I could totally see a Ziggler heel turn to take the title and put Cena on the shelf. I desperately want a fresh face though.

Just watched Breaking Ground, which leaked early on WWE network. It's pretty good. Much better than Tough Enough, but way too short. Only 30 minutes, roughly. I wanted more, which is a good thing.

-you can tell Matt Bloom aka Prince Albert is a good coach and really knows his sh!t

-at one point he asks Baron Corbin if he's working on his abs, Corbin replies, "Do you think I need to work on my abs" and Bloom's response is "I think it's too late." I lol'ed.

-NXT talent has to help set up the rings, much like WWE refs have to help set them up. Bravo for them, and I think it makes a lot of sense for them to have to do that.

-You get more of a sense of how tough it is on performers to not make it, as opposed to Tough Enough, which is obviously more staged. You also get more of a sense of the frustration from guys like Corbin who have been there a while. But as Bloom says, it's all on them. I don't think anybody is intentionally held back in NXT. Also when people are let go, it's not always just because they suck, but because they have medical issues that we don't always hear about.

-As with the background segments you see on guys like Crews and Balor in NXT, the interviews here give you a better feel for performers, much more so than kayfabe promos

-While somewhat staged, there's going to be some cool moments coming up in future episodes, like HHH breaking the news to Bayley and Sasha that they're going to be main eventing a PPV

Maybe Kurt Angle will return the favor and answer Cena's open challege like Cena answered his 13 years ago.

That would be best. But since he's still under TNA contract and probably wouldn't be cleared by WWE doctors anyways...

Maybe they could get somebody that's the next best thing.

Maybe somebody that could come out to Angle's music, but isn't the Patriot.

Maybe somebody that, like Cena, has their own little towel.

Maybe somebody that is also an olympic wrestler.

Maybe somebody that is ready...willing...and GABLE.

Pre-show 6-man: dgaf
Taker v. Brock: Brock
Reigns v. Wyatt: Wyatt via theatrics and/or other interference
Rollins v. Kane: Kane via count out/DQ/etc.
Charlotte v. Nikki: Charlotte, with Paige making a statement either during or after
New Day v. Dudleyz: New Day retains in some way, perhaps by having a table set up and finding a way to go through it, DQing the Dudleyz
Owens v. Ryback: Owens
Cena v. TBA: TBA. Guess it's more about who comes out. The later the match, the more likely it's Ziggler. Anyway, I'm sure it won't be Zayn, but I'm gonna say it's Zayn anyway

I like how they say "inescapable" but like...I'd contend that more HIAC matches result in guys on top of the cage than remain inside from start-to-finish

Yep. Also, Mark Henry and Big Show are the biggest threats to win the Royal Rumble.

It would be funny (not the right word, given his age and what not, but storyline wise) if it was Corporate Kane who answered Cena and then monster Kane beat Rollins and he was 2 champs as 2 characters.

I don't mind ADR. He's been a good heel in the past, but got a pretty good pop tonight. We'll see what they do with him.
