It's been known for several years that Vince does not care about wrestling. He to some extent cares about his workers, I mean, Foley pretty much got scolded for flying off the top of the cage, but other than that, the Attitude Era is all you're ever gonna see from Vince. I agree with the non verbal statement HHH is making: Only a wrestler can run a wrestling business. It worked for Jarret for awhile. To some degree, Bishoff can get it right, and then he starts getting over zealous and does stupid shit.

I just realized the WWE Network uses Beyond the Ring as a broad term to categorize it's documentaries lol. It was indeed Thy Kingdom Come.

I fucking hate JBL. Does he have to repeat the same dumb sentences every week?
"streaks are meant to be broken" yeah we get it, you said it 50 times for the past 5 weeks. -_-

**Darkdreamer** · 2014-04-01 00:22

Just got home from Raw live. Shit was pretty awesome. Highlight was the place erupting with Yes chants at the end of the show. Cena coming out and Undertakes pop. For us personally was getting up close and personal with Reigns as he came down. And our sign was chosen as one of the signs of the night with "Fear The Beard".

I think he is still steaming over how his 10 month streak as WWE champ was broken by John Cena. So he has to remind the guys that it can be taken away heh.

**Krandor** · 2014-04-01 07:52

I'd put it more with Vince giving orders via the headset.

**Exoduso** · 2014-04-03 18:30

Apparently Stone Cold is gonna be at WM30 now...
So he's gonna come out, get interrupted by Punk, and they'll set up a match for WM31 RIGHTTTT?
(I can dream can't I..)

**Krandor** · 2014-04-03 18:49

My brain couldn't handle it if that actually happened. I was at the Raw that was his last televised appearance, and God do I miss hearing that glass shatter.

The world would mark out

**Exoduso** · 2014-04-03 21:55

I just want to hear Punk's static again... >.<

I hope Stone Cold or Punk or SOMEONE comes out as a surprise, because so far this is one of the weakest WM lineups I've ever seen.

**Krandor** · 2014-04-04 08:48

Eh, the main draws for this (Bryan and Cena/Bray) have been very well done. End of the day, if Bryan is hoisting the belt everyone should be going home satisfied.

I could do without the Diva clusterfuck and NAO being inserted into the Shield/Kane stuff though.

**Lyall** · 2014-04-04 10:13

If it means the Shield gets to help bring an end to the stupid corporate reign thing going on, I'm all for it. Bryan takes out the COO, becomes the new champ in the same night changes the playing field for the new "season."

Besides, I like the Shield. If they lose to the Old Age Outlaws and Kane, I don't like the ramifications that those three are somehow better than any of the super-teams that Shield took out over the past year or more. I'd be up for Austin showing up but only if he did something in the background. Kind of sick of yesteryear's stars showing up and hot dogging all over the full-time guys.

**arus2001** · 2014-04-04 12:14

Only way I'd really be okay with an Austin pop in would be for him to fuck up the corporate mojo. It'd fit the character, at least.

**Anoat** · 2014-04-04 19:30

So I discovered this gem of an interview. John Cena on Howard Stern. He is there promoting the release of The Marine, so that places this in 2006. After seeing PG John Cena for so long, it was pretty shocking and hilarious to hear him talking about having orgies with groupies and fucking fat girls on a dare, lmao

Trigun · 2014-04-04 19:58

Insane Clown Posse recently did a shoot interview.
They say "extreme female music fans" are way better looking then "extreme female wrestling fans".
They said wrestlers are always more likely to take a "Sweaty Betty" back to the hotel.

**Krandor** · 2014-04-04 23:10

Austin on Punk during an interview on Friday.

I could get more out of that guy than anybody else walking Planet Earth. He could have that ultimate 'Come to Jesus' meeting with me. Punk's been around for a long time and he's a smart guy, but he never stepped into a damn squared circle with the intensity of a guy like Stone Cold Steve Austin.

**Tomiko** · 2014-04-05 03:15

Prediction time!

For easy quoting:

Spoiler: show

Triple Threat for WWE Title:
Randy Orton (c) vs. Bootista vs. (winner of Daniel Bryan vs. HHH)

Daniel Bryan is the obvious choice here. WWE likes having that WrestleMania Moment that everyone talks about and Bryan winning would do that. But I think we all know that Bootista was probably promised the title when he came back since he's going to be promoting Guardians soon and it'll be good press for them.

I really want Bryan to win, but I'm going to go with Bootista since WWE doesn't care about nerd rage, only $$$. If Bryan does win, I expect him to lose the belt no later than the next PPV. I'm hoping I get this one wrong.

Winner is added to Main Event:
Daniel Bryan vs. HHH

If Daniel Bryan doesn't win this, expect a LOT of pissed off fans. Alternate possibility is that it ends in a draw and both get added to the main event. Win or draw, Daniel is going to the main event.

The Streak:
The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar

No way Taker loses the streak to Lesnar. Especially when Brock has nothing to gain from the win here.

Follow the Buzzards: (I can't think of a catchy title.)
John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt

I could see this going either way. I'm going with Wyatt though since Cena has no problem with putting over talent. Either way, this should be a great match.

Fatal 4-Way for the Tag Titles:
The Usos (c) vs. Los Matadores vs. The Real Americans vs. Rybaxel

Usos retain and the Real Americans end up breaking up when Swagger is pinned by an Uso. Meanwhile no one cares about Los Matadores or Rybaxel.

6-Man Tag:
The Shield vs. Kane & the New Age Outlaws

Believe in The Shield. Kane/Outlaws have nothing to gain. Only way Shield loses is if it progresses the storyline with them breaking up. If that happens, I see Reigns taking the loss and Rollins/Ambrose taking it out on him. Either that or they turn on Reigns because they sold out.

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal:
Big Show vs. 29 others

A little obvious, but I feel that he should be the first winner since it's a tribute to Andre. Plus we all know winning this means nothing when it comes to storylines.

Rusev would be my #2 pick if he gets added since it seems they want to do something with him and winning this would give him a decent way to start on the main roster.

Vickie Guerrero Divas Championship Invitational:
AJ Lee (c) vs. a bunch of Divas vs. Eva Marie

Let's be honest, no one cares about this match. There's been talk of taking the title off AJ and this is the best way to do it while not making her look weak. Paige isn't in this which is stupid. I would like to see Emma win, but we know that isn't happening while she's in the comedy act with Santino.

One of the Total Divas will win this. I'm only going with Eva Marie because it won't happen but if it did there would be so much rage. If Brie Bella wins this, I think you can 100% expect Bryan to win the world title.

Bonus!
Do you think CM Punk and/or Sting will appear during the broadcast?

I don't think Punk will show, but I would love to see Sting show up right after Taker beats Brock which would set up a match between them next year.

**Exoduso** · 2014-04-05 21:46

Apparently The Rock is also in New Orleans for WM...

I think they handled Paul Bearer's induction well. Really glad Taker showed up.
