I picked 3 guys who could win. This is mostly who i want to win, rather then who i know will win. Rollins especially should and will win because hes the MITB guy and i think he needs to gain steam.

7 matches is all? Hmm i dunno why this seems like a short PPV. I guess someones going 40-50 mins tonight.

Diego is a member of Los Matedores. He was known as Primo before.

I was confused myself, so I looked it up on Wiki. He is Carlito's brother in real life, so he might end up being pretty good.

Well, there's a Fatal 4-Way for the WWEWHC. I can see that taking a while (especially if Rollins gets involved). That could make 40 minutes easily. I think the Battle Royal could take that long, or longer, easily. I think if they give Lana and Zeb the mic before that match, it could waste some time.

And of course, they have the 5-10 minute segments between each thing with Matt Striker and former/present superstars.

Really hope Reigns doesn't win the championship.. Keep it with Cena for now.. the story line of the Shield vs the Authority should be played out a little longer.. Sheamus get the Intercontinental belt.. AJ keeps the diva belt.. hope the Wyatts get the tag belts.. (that they're starting to grow on me.. love their entrance.. 'We're here').. Bray-Dean-Swagger get wins

I think Reigns could be good because it would set up Reigns vs Lesnar which would be a great brute match. If you remember the matches Lesnar has had hes always the power guy this would be really interesting and bloody i would think. But im pretty sure Cena would win. I dont see the reason Cena is involved in the main story lines, hes just floating around and is now champ. Hes so Orton now. So tired of Cena being shoehorned into everything, and suddenly on top of it.

If reigns were to win tonight, then again at SS, it would set up him and rollins or the rollins "run in" pin. They seem to really want to push these two guys more then Orton or Cena.

The USOs/Wyatt is 2 out of 3 falls. Since it's a tag match and those two teams always put on great matches that should be stretched to at least a half an hr.

The battle royal can take up time as well if needed

Not the biggest Cena fan either.. but his popularity maybe be more for what he does outside the ring.. and Orton has become a lost cause.. along with Kane.. even Batista couldn't take it anymore and left

 

[iowajerms]

Orton came in the WWE at a perfect time for him. It was a transition period between Attitude Era and the PG era. He was great at being "The Legend Killer" and was a great way at the greats of the Attitude Era to end their careers. Now that I think about it, he should have defeated the Undertaker. It could have been "The Legend Killer" victim.

Kane should be a character that made us wonder if he was babyface or heel. He is the pet to Authority, when he should be a monster to everybody. He doesn't need to talk. He was at his best when he didn't say anything.

Heards reports online that Cena is about to start filming a new movie, this could lead to a title change tonight. I personally will be very surprised if that happens though.

Really bummed I won't be able to watch this live

 

[iowajerms]

I just turned WWE Network on and Cameron vs Naomi is going on. At first I thought it was a replay but the ring says Battleground.

Okay, match just ended. Cameron pinned Naomi.

 

[iowajerms]

Just watched the Cameron-Naomi match. Naomi should have won. Only lasted around 3 minutes and Cameron didn't really do anything . Naomi made it somewhat interesting. 2/10

 

[iowajerms]

2-out-of-3 Falls Tag Team Championship

Champions: The Usos
Challengers: The Wyatts (Luke Harper and Erick Rowen)

Starting off with this match.

I think this rivalry has ran its course for now. There are other tag teams they can go after for a while. Not a bad match, but it will be like a rerun IMO.

 

[iowajerms]

Harper got the first pin over Jimmy Uso.
