    Honestly, I'm going to bed now. I gave in, read spoilers, and decided I'd rather sleep :P

    Nice to see the Fandangoing craze back - well, for this week at least.

    Match of the year there, no doubt it will go down in the history books. Honestly thought the Kane would turn heel.

    Ugh, that segment. Ugh. Nether Kane nor Rollins gained anything from that.

    A slow burn turn from Kane (excuse the pun) won't interest fans and Rollins should not be made look like such a geek, especially at the hands of Kane.

    Ugh.

    Atleast a few matches for extreme rules are actually getting built up.Ambrose will shine in some sort of gimmick match even with Harper but Rusev desperately needs to beat Cena and I don't think he will

    Sheamus's appearance was quite good.

    I think that's enough Raw for me; I'll be tapping out now. Goodnight to the rest of you night owls.

    So Rollins can choose any stipulation in the world, and he chooses "You can't RKO me?" Really? I know this sort of stipulation choice is always a bit of a "suspend your disbelief" moment, but still....at least Orton was smart enough to go big.

    Rest of show was meh; Kane story went nowhere, I also get frustrated when the tag champs can't beat a single person, Naomi heel turn is a textbook "So what" moment, and outside of the announcement of stips for the US and WH title, there was nothing of consequence at all.

    Neville has out performed the current champion and one of the best workers in the company two weeks running.

    That splash off the rail was just incredible.

    Most impressive is Neville has barely scratched the surface of what he can do. The losses don't matter right now as they are against credible opponents, but some wins would be nice.

    Rest of RAW was the usual ****e. Tag champs buried, Rollins looking like a geek, random heel turns, Mizdow winning a 2 min match with a rollup....

    The less said about Big Show/Reigns the better.

    Back to normal for WWE.

    At least they are trying to do something interesting with Kane.

    Doesn't mean it's working or that I care about it however.

    what raw did you watch?

    Ryback def. Luke Harper via Disqualification. This match was kept short as well. The DQ happened when Harper threw part of the announce table at Ryback. After the match, Dean Ambrose hit the ring and attacked Harper.

    A pop for Darren Young saying he's gay (although technically it was whoever he was playing of Los Matardores), who'da thunk it?

    Adrian Neville losing to the Rollins and Dolph Ziggler isn't a bad thing.

    Nor is Rollins as the king of undeserving (kayfabe) champions.

    Hope Cena's open challenges are leading to a unification match between him and Daniel Bryan down the line.

    Big Show/Reigns?

    it's like they've learned absolutely nothing from Reigns' build to Wrestlemania.

    That's actually made me look forward to it. Not because of those two chumps but because in front of that crowd it will be the train wreck to end all train wrecks.

    Christ.

    Why do you say that? At least Rollins' stipulation benefits him.

    Orton's doesn't benefit him at all, it actually damages him. Let's face it, people interfere in cage matches all the time. In this case it means Rollins can't be disqualified if they do interfere. I guess you could argue it's a title match so in that sense Rollins not being able to be disqualified is a benefit but it doesn't change the fact that the Authority can interfere as much as they want.

    The most logical stipulation for Orton to choose would be that title changes hands on a disqualification.

    Why does everyone want a US-IC unification so bad? That would leave WWE with just two male singles belts on the main roster. When used correctly (as they are right now) they can really help get people over; even the challenger when they lose.

    Do we know who Bray is waffling on about yet? Looks like he will show up at Extreme Rules and cost someone a match?. Orton, Bryan, Ziggler or Reigns?

    I would argue that no DQ makes more sense in a title match. In that way, the authority can't come out and hit Rollins, thus awarding him the match and keeping the title. I know I'm clutching at straws here but technically they could that. :p
