Ugh, another month of Cena/Ryback

Seeing where Kane and DB go from here is enough to make me tune in... Hopefully, Ziggler is seen tonight

Whoa... wait a minute. What's with Ryback and the Aces & Eights like vest on? And oh great an Ambulance Match at Payback, maybe they'll both end up in the Ambulance and that'll be a No Contest as well.

Man, I'm thirsty. I think I'm gonna go to Sonic and get me a shake. There 1/2 price after 8PM, so that's a pretty good deal, don't you think?

Even the most casual of casual fans will remember this guy as Micheal McGullicutty. This is f*ckin stupid. This sh*t is crap.

^Lmao, I listen to plenty as it is :P

At least this 'Paul Heyman guy' was somebody who has wrestling in his history and has the potential to 'become' something. That's one advantage he has over RVD.

I don't know about Michael McGillicutty.

It's a young guy who needs someone like Heyman to help him get over. It makes sense from that standpoint.
On the other hand, kinda underwhelming reveal

That match was brilliant for RAW. The crowd were into it, the match itself was fast paced, and everybody got a chance to shine. Heck, even Kofi looked strong during this contest! It also got an incredible time slot (Almost 23 minutes long).

I'm going to say *** 1/2 Stars right now, but perhaps even more once I've seen the entirety of this encounter (Too many ad breaks).

That was a good match as well; despite the lame and predictable ending. *** Stars.

That was a weird-ass ending.

The six-man tag was indeed great.

Was the quiet crowd during the Ryback/Ryder incident because nobody is interested in heel Ryback, or because nobody cares about Ryder anymore?

That's a great question, ha

I'll give Ryback credit... He's trying really hard to get over as a heel, but should be a "Heyman Guy" more than anyone... Maybe that was planned, who knows...

Henning as the next next big thing is fine by me... It could be someone w/o ring talent... Great name too that pays respect to his past, seems like a "Heyman Idea"... He got chubby in the face

What a great 6 man tag match... DB really shined and showed what he's capable of when put w other capable talent...Rollins continues to impress me as I thought he would struggle in WWE for an unknown reason... The Shield is the best thing on WWE

 HHH almost dying on tv was a different ending, fresh for me, I appreciated it... He made it believable as it could've been, kudos to him

I'm not sure if it's just me, but hearing the name Curtis Axel made me think of Kurt Angle. xD I do like the sentiment though.

Anyways, the unveiling certainly was a bit underwhelming. I feel like Antonio Cesaro or Cody Rhodes - guys who deserve to be in better positions than they currently are, could get the push as a "Heyman Guy." That said, they are probably more capable on their own than Axel would be, so here's hoping for some great stuff from him in the coming months. :D

Same here. Made even better by the fact the minitron on his first entrance actually said "Curt Axel".

Can I also say how awesome his theme was on Raw? I'm disappointed they've already changed it to lose a hefty amount of Perfect's sample.

Speaking of changing entrance themes, what's the deal with Wade Barrett's constant rotation?

Winds of Change was a finisher of his for about two months and I wanna say there was another one back when he first debuted in WWE. But, no. He hasn't added another finisher to his move set; Bullhammer is his current finisher right now.

The thing is, I loved the start of it... and then, it just didn't improve, so I got disappointed. Bring back the one he had already!

I think End of Days (post-Corre) was my favourite of the ones he's used, and since we're on the subject of change I hate the name of his finisher. I thought it was much cooler as The Souvenir. Anyone else agree? I feel like with Barrett and Rhodes, the WWE is at a loss with what to do with them. When something is working in their favour, someone pulls the plug, and then their left changing hands until they find something else that is alright, onl to blow it up again. It's rather frustrating, because I like both guys, and quite frankly much more of the roster I'm willing to admit, but they just aren't being handled well. The feel like since Punk's pipebomb we saw all these moments of things clicking for guys up and down the roster, and since this time last year, all of that has stopped with the exception of Team Hell No and The Shield. Why couldn't R-Truth's conspiracy be tied to something that actually made a difference, and elevate him to the main event level? Why can't Orton be interesting without Christian? Why is Johnny Ave not on TV anymore...yeah, I miss having him around (someone called this I think).

My apologies for the mini-rant, I am sleep deprived. xD

^ I actually like the Bullhammer name, even though Idk what a "Bullhammer" is in England. (It's probably slang for a stiff drink) But I agree with everything else; it's like there's these angles that are decent and they get dropped for secret admirer's and farting gimmicks or to give more time to Triple H and John Cena's feuds.
