I enjoy when R-Truth is on commentary, the guy is pretty funny.

Ziggler and Reigns were great during that.

I thought Reigns was the best he has been on the mic last night. The guy has improved a ton in a short time in all aspects. I have no beef with him winning MITB next week and I think the crowd booing him would be almost cliche.

I will never be president of the Reigns fan club but I am far from a Reigns hater. I was really not a fan of his huge push so fast especially since I really wanted to see Brock v Bryan. However, I will say, I agree with numbers he is much improved. I think he will win the MitB.

I finished the Bryan documentary that came out last week. It was good but WAY too short. Nowhere near the caliber of the Punk, Heyman, Austin or Foley ones. It could have been much better. I do like all the behind the scenes stuff at Mania 30. Some good unreleased Bryan matches too. The Gauntlet Match vs. Jack Swagger, Antonio Cesaro, Ryback on Raw July 2013 was money. Bryan/Cesaro was just incredible. They went about 20 minutes on a RAW and it was wonderful.

i dunno...his lines still seem so forced and rehearsed and delivered with no confidence...he can have an intimidating look, but as soon as he talks the threat goes away

he's just not believable to me

It was pretty obvious once they announced who was in the MITB match that Reigns would win it. To be honest, the only other scenario I think is remotely possible is Kane winning, as awful as that would be.

I really can't logically think anyone but Reigns will win. Buuuuuuut since this is Vince McMahon we are talking about I could see Kane maybe winning. As his cash in he cashes in on a match with Seth Rollins at Battleground. Which would suck donkey balls but hey that happens sometimes.

Kofi cashes in at Mania and wins the title. Woods and Big E join him at the end of the show. Everyone dances.

Had to be posted. One of the best promos ever. Some of my earliest memories are watching Dusty and Flair promos in Mid Atlantic and NWA. Good times.

I told my Dad last night that Dusty passed. He remembered seeing Dusty v Superstar Billy Graham go an hour draw in Omaha in the late 70s.

Good point.

Dolph uses it sometimes. I get a kick when he does becuase Cole usually says something like he has won a lot of matches with this move. Or like none. Cole sucks.

Pretty sure Piper used the sleeper a lot. I'm a huge fan of the Cobra Clutch (Million Dollar Dream...if you will) and wish someone used that as a finisher. A powerhouse kinda guy (Cesaro) would benefit from a finisher like this I think. Austin used it when he was the Ringmaster. The Tazzmission was sweet too.

yeah the wwe commentators are terrible...jbl is the only one i can tolerate...lawler is just awkward without the heel persona

if rollins' curb stomp is really banned i'd like to see him use some variation of one...anything is better than "borrowing" hhh's move
