    Guess he'll never win a match in the WWE. Not counting the dq against the Big Show

    So let me get this straight... the WWE Champ beats Cena once, only with the help of Jon Stewart, and then within a month Cena beats the champ twice clean!?!?!

    Brilliant booking!

    It will air on the WWE Network live. I missed seeing the MSG shows on tv. I hope they do this for other house shows in the future.

    Since its on the network I'm thinking that the Dudleys are going to win the belt... only to lose it back to the New Day in the next few weeks.

    The main event was good but not as good as NXT Brooklyn. Some of the spots last night looked really forced to me.

    And what's up with fans crying over wrestling? I really don't get it. These people make a great living doing what they love it's not like they are war veterans or something.

    Coming from someone who wants to watch periodically, but really cant get into it... it wont work.

    WWE framed as serious competition/sport is dumb.

    What they need is to frame it as they have all the 'intention' of having a legitimate competition, but all the heels keep cheating and doing evil things from keeping actual fair competition from taking place. The envelope needs to be pushed, and a partnership with ESPN certainly wont result in that.

    Its very tough. There is limited to no competitor to WWE. A lot of these guys seem to have more ability to walk away if they want and not be lifetime slaves to the McMahons. 95% of ex wrestlers dying so early has taken a lot of wind out of sails and is probably a wake-up call to participants and potential participants... the old guard who carried the thing from the 80s into the 90s and 00s is almost completely gone now. The new guys just dont have the history, nastalgia, or excitement.

    3 hour Raws are untenable too.

    Raw is un-watchable to me. I read the results and instead watch the WWE Network (old PPVs, countdowns, Table for 3, Legends w/ JBL and Rivalries are all really good).

    Hell in a Cell tonight.

    My predictions:
    Rusev, King Barret and Sheamus over Cesaro, Neville, and Dolph Ziggler
    Roman Reigns over Bray Wyatt (HIAC match)
    Brock Lesnar over The Undertaker (HIAC match)
    Seth Rollins over Kane
    Dudley Boyz over New Day (don't think this will happen though, more of a hope)
    Charlotte over Nikki Bella
    Kevin Owens over Ryback
    John Cena over mystery opponent. I think it might be someone from NXT like Tyler Breeze or maybe Finn Balor.

    Not sure about that six man tag.
    For main show, I'm going:
    Reigns
    BROCK by destruction
    Rollins in a shitty match (I love the guy, but he's book pretty terribly)
    Dudleys (they can't have New Day win every time. I think they drop it tonight and win it back in a month or two)
    Charlotte
    Owens and then he can move on to someone worthwhile
    Cena loses to mystery opponent which I hope is Kofi or DB
