It's a shame because Del Rio was a lot better in Lucha Underground. He was better his first run in WWE when had Roberto and was the aristocrat driving in the nice cars.

Now Ziggler, Lameus, Boreton, Del Rio, Dryback, and the divas are the equivalent of wrestling Nyquil for me.

Interesting comments from Scott Hall about Sting losing to HHH:

Brock Lesnar returns, Scott Hall on Sting at Wrestlemania - - SI.com

“I was there and obviously involved in his match at WrestleMania last year,” said Hall. “We’re rehearsing the match in Cali last year at Levi Stadium, and it’s the Kliq and the New Age Outlaws out there, and we all know each other. And then there’s Sting, who doesn’t know anybody. He’s an outsider. I just think he never felt comfortable there. Being hurt was answered prayer for him–just let it end.

“You need to remember that Vince is never going to go with something he didn’t create. But we didn’t get anything done at the rehearsal the night before, so WrestleMania day, there were tents in the parking lot set up with rings for rehearsal. So we’re all in there again, and I’m next to Hulk on the ring apron and Triple H is going over the match and then he goes, ‘OK, he’ll break the sledgehammer, then I’ll hit him with the sledgehammer, and cover him, 1-2-3.’ I looked at Hulk, and Hulk looked at me, and I was thinking, ‘Sting, what kind of lawyer do you have, bro? You’re coming in the door doing a job? You weren’t even guaranteed to go over?’ That’s Vince just reminding you who won, even if he’s going to make money the other way.”

That's sad and kinda hilarious at the same time. I'm sure it wasn't all Vince. HHH prolly had a hand in the decision too.

So apparently Vince killed Tyler Breezes push despite HHH going to bat for him. If true, holy ****. Go retire Vince, you old outta touch ****. That is all. Carry on. Lol

So according to Dave Meltzer, the plan is for HHH to face Reigns for the title in THE main event of WM. LOL...just...LOL.

Also Lesnar and Taker are penciled in to face generic heels such as Sheamus, Del Rio - and lol again - Strowman, but Owens facing Lesnar is not likely.

Man...

The company's new motto should be "Can we be that stupid? YES! YES! YES!"

Hopefully we get Charlotte vs Nikki Bella for the Diva's title too. Or better yet, a Diva's battle royale or 6 person tag match.

I think HHH puts on pretty good matches, especially when he's putting someone over. He's much better than he gets credit for. Obviously he's not flashy, but he knows how sell the match and make his opponents look good.

Undertaker is way past his prime though. He simply doesn't give a good performance at this point.

For me it's nothing about HHH's ability. It's the fact that he always has to be in the forefront

And it's 2016. Its sad that HHH, and Taker have to be in main event matches at Mania, especially considering WWE has some legit talent in their "developmental" league. Lol

If you think about it, we've been intermittently in the same angle for 15+ years. It's been the top face vs. Mr. McMahon, a rogue GM or the Authority. I actually give HHH credit for not injecting himself more as a wrestler since he's really not that old.

Maybe he's not wrestling, but I'm just tired of him always there. He's what marks label Cena as times 17.

Also, the nerd in me looked it up. Austin was feuding with Vince in late '97. DX was feuding with Vince before then. So it's basically been 20 years of this storyline
