There won't be a non finish in a Triple Threat.

Reigns has been suspended for violating the wellness policy.

So that'll be why he lost clean then, and probably why he decided to have a pop at the fans on Raw for the first time. Also lol.
Heel turn.
Hasn't Randy Orton had about ten of those (God knows how useless you have to be to get caught)? He'll be alright, and probably better off for the break.
They won't have known going into the PPV. If they did, no way they'd set up the Triple Threat. Surely they aren't dumb enough to give him a title shot 3 days after a suspension.Originally Posted by Disco
Someone posted about it yesterday on reddit. So they either knew or made an incredibly lucky guess.
If they knew and are giving him a title shot regardless they are fucking idiots. Should have had Rollins beat him clean again and then stick him on the shelf.
Draft night is going to be so fucking awkward. "And with the first pick of the WWE Draft..... RAW selects.... Roman Reigns! See him in 3 weeks time!"
Apparently it's two but only one remains active after some cooling off period because carnies can't do justice.
Orton is also a massively angry bastard with a penchant for temper tantrums, I don't think that helps either.
If you can test for drug traces in someone's shit, Orton was easier to test than most.
Orton has two on record. He did have a 3rd they aren't really talking about if I remember right, because a 3rd would see him fired.
Lol at Reigns though. They surely had known before the PPV started. I reckon he'll lose the title match and suffer the indignity of having to go and be IC champion for a few weeks/months. To be honest, he could probably use that too. He's still young in wrestling terms at 31. The guys in the mid card now are really quite talented and could probably teach him a thing or two.
You could have tested Melina and caught four or five different guys.
They absolutely did know and they booked it anyway, which answers your second point.
I was out at a bar last night and the DJ played Sasha Banks' theme at one point. Is it a proper song or is he just a wrestling dweeb?
Watched AJ Styles' Stone Cold Podcast last night. He comes across really well.
It's not, it's produced by WWE.
The CM Punk doc on the Network is really good. He's a bit of a bell-end but while I'm only just getting into his WWE stuff (and have watched some of the promos on Youtube) he seems to be a talented guy.

The title's back to the plain old 'WWE Championship' which all but confirms a world title for each brand. Big Gold Belt please.
Fuck your Del Rio, Sheamus and Daniel Bryan runs with the title. THIS was the pinnacle of the big gold belt.
Still better than when Russo put the belt on himself.
Apparently Reigns was busted for fat burners.
No wonder he still wears the vest.
Really? I read it was weed and amphetamines.
I don't think there's a Polynesian wrestler who hasn't ended up tubby (The Rock's black for the purposes of that theory). The Usos are on their way, and I suspect Bo Dallas is from Fiji.
I watched Wrestling with Shadows the other day. Can't believe I've never watched that until now. I really respect Brett Hart now.
Finally remembered to grab and watch NxT: Takeover Dallas last night. Pretty impressed with it. Don't really think there was a weak/piss break match.
That Murica vs. Filthy Forinners match might be the most pointless main event I've ever seen on Raw.
Particularly as the Lucha Dragons are American and Kane is Spanish.
Sasha's promo was fucking awful. Why did she keep talking about "a bus".
Least it made for a good WTF episode.
I reckon they can't be arsed now until the draft.
The big intrigue between now and then is whether Eric Bischoff pops up as one of the GMs who gets escorted out.
I haven't watched Raw for a few weeks, and now I have no idea what is going on. Is it as big a mess as it looks?
This week's was an absolute state but otherwise it's probably what it ever was.
Other than that we're no longer getting reminders of who the good guys, bad guys and, er, The guys are.
The Final Deletion looks like the best wrestling related thing in years
Has anyone been watching any of this WCPW thing on Youtube? Some of it's been quite good, Martin Kirby is my new favourite wrestler (sorry Jose).
They reckon it's Orton Vs Lesnar at Summerslam, which is fucking laughable.
That's a seriously disappointing use of Lesnar. Unless it's a mega squash match.
Director's Cut of The Final Deletion is up. Might be the best thing TNA's ever done.
Swanton out of a tree is all that needs to be said
It is a lovely violin.
What an utter pile of shit, they did this as a joke right?
The tree spot made literally no sense. Jeff misses and crashes through a ladder yet still goes for a pin on Matt? Fuck off.
Complaining about missing a swanton in a match that involved shooting fireworks at each otherIt was entertaining at least. Watched the highlights of the Murica vs the world match from raw and it looked awful, particularly Owens trying to powerbomb Mark Henry. Is he getting fatter every week?
That might be one of the most mental things I've seen in wrestling. Having commentary dubbed over it would have made at least feel real whereas this just looked like something out of a cheap sci-fi film. Fair play to TNA, though, at least they're trying something different and giving people a reason to at least try out their program.
It's not the fact he missed, it's the fact Matt was laying there for ages, had enough in the tank to roll out the way, yet still ended up being pinned by a man who just went through a ladder after coming out a fucking tree. The other stuff was obviously shit, but 2 professional wrestlers should at least get that right.
He's done it before, hasn't he? or Big Show or somebody? He's definitely done it to somebody massive before.Complaining about missing a swanton in a match that involved shooting fireworks at each other
I just like the idea of Dixie or someone thinking, "Well, the Hardy's aren't travelling but we need them on TV. Figure some shit out, please."
Brother Nero! I knew you'd come...
