So WWE does a Anti Bullying/Anti Hate campaign...then bring in a blogger to appear on Raw who makes a living blasting people on the internet.

I'd like the WWE Hall of Fame more if their main attractions were out of the pic for a few years. Not excited about Edge at all.

Way too soon for Edge I agree.

This actually would have been a good year for Foley, actually. Been out of the main picture for the past few years.

Yes it would.....................on another note the Jericho walking out on the match and the return s*** is growing old quick!

I love it, it serves its purpose.

 

I thought raw was great tonight.

Lol, that is exactly the reaction he wants you to have. I think it is brilliant.

 

I also think that he is going to continue doing it until the crowd turns on him, and then he might do it a little bit more. At this rate it could be a while though, the crowd is still marking out for him.

STAMFORD, Conn., January 17, 2012 – In accordance with its Talent Wellness Program, WWE (NYSE:WWE) has suspended Matthew Korklan (Evan Bourne®) for 60 days effective Tuesday, January 17 for his second violation of the company’s policy.

 

As DJ would say, "....UH OHHHHH".

Evan Bourne is about to be banished to Paul London-ville. That is 2 violations in 6 months. Way to screw up your push

The first violation iirc was something stupid and somewhat of a mistake, still extremely dumb of Bourne here.

His days are numbered.

His days are numbered.

 

But if they were numbered why wouldn't they just release him right now. I guess so they get another 30 days of no compete (don't most guys have a 30 day no compete clause).

3 strikes and you're out is their policy. When he comes back, he will be a jobber.

He his piss test showed he was smoking synthetic weed. Not sure how that is a mistake

Several sources within WWE believe that Evan Bourne is likely gone from the company after his second Wellness suspension, though no final decision's been made at this time. The second suspension is said to be completely unrelated to the first one.

The Rumble card looks top notch to me.

Punk-Ziggler and the rumble match alone should make it a real fun watch.

I'm liking Bryan on Smackdown with what he is doing. SHould be cool to see him sneak out of the cage Sunday somehow.

 

You're right about the Rumble. It is pretty stacked and I assume Henry, Show, and Ziggler will be in it after their matches. Lots of big names.

 

I'm pulling for Jericho. Love the unique way he is getting heat and a match with Punk would rock.

I fast forward through the Jericho bits. It's too predictable he's not going to do anything. I'm torn on the Daniel Bryan bits too. The AJ stuff is obnoxious.

 

I'm loving R Truth. I laugh at so much of his antics. I'm also glad they're getting Santino more involved on Smackdown. I think he can serve a quality purpose. I LOL'd when he got a mask for the cobra. I'm also enjoying Gabriel getting pushed more.

 

I can't take the Kane bits anymore though. Blah!!!

Do I dare predict a Jericho/Punk title match at Mania?

 

Going to my buddy's to watch the Rumble tonight. Kind of excited. ALways love the Rumble and unpredictable this year. Dolph vs. Punk should be good and I'm liking the D Bryan character so interested to see how he escapes with the title and hopefully out of this feud with Show and Henry.

I wonder how the WWE will handle Mark Henry in the match. I noticed during their bit on Smackdown he was wearing a sleeve on his hammy/quad. That leg was the one that gave out Friday. It was clear he was really hurting too by the way Show backed off. Then the match ended under commercial. He's not exactly the most mobile guy to start with so how's this affect the match?

 

Y2J is someone I can see winning. I don't think he will though. I think a Punk/Jericho match would sell itself so the WWE will use the RR title clause to aid the Smackdown title story. After the Bryan/Show/Henry angle, Smackdown has basically been "who will win the RR " for the past month while the only real RR bit on Raw was really Mick Foley, who will not win it. With Orton, Barrett, Sheamus, Rhodes, and Mahal getting RR pushes, I think it'll be Barrett. The Sheamus/Barrett storyline has morphed into Sheamus/Mahal and I can see that storyline lasting at least one or two months, taking away from a WM push. Orton/Bryan would be a nightmare from a bit perspective. That's just not their strengths. Rhodes will already be pushed for WM and I think we'll be looking at King of the Ring for him and not RR.

 

If Bryan is going to be the titleholder at WM, I pick Barrett. If its Show, I pick Orton. I cannot figure out who they'd pair with Henry. From a favorite perspective, I'd love Sheamus to win but I like him having the freedom to do whatever he wants right now. I'd also like Santino to be Santino in the RR haha!

 

My pick though is Barrett. Barrett/Bryan at WM with Barrett carrying the mic.

They have been teasing that everyone can enter the Rumble. Maybe Punk wins and they unify the belts at Mania? Long shot guess.

 

It really is the first time in a long time where you have no clue who is going to win.

 

I wouldnt mind Barrett/Taker at Mania personally

Edited January 29, 201214 yr by Brian

Speaking of taker, any idea who he's going to face at mania? Kane for the 95th time?

 

And I think Jericho is going to win tonight. Agreed with punk-jericho selling itself but I don't think they're going to make the titles that much of an after thought at mania...

I read a month or so ago a rematch with HHH and HBK as ref was being talked about. Hope that doesn't happen.

In the grand scheme, I agree. I am just afraid at how stale Smackdown could get.

 

Mark Henry as a monster against Taker at WM wouldn't kill me.
