I actually kinda liked when he was the doctor of thugganomics. I remember when he was heel and Brock Lesnar was the face and Cena would be verbally(and quite good tbh)getting into Lesnar's skin.
With that said, now I honestly don't know what's going to be done with Sandow. I agree what was the purpose in having him win MITB, just to watch it go down the shyt pipe. Honestly who though he was going to beat Cena?
I think its all just to test the waters, I think Sandow is among the best personalitys in the WWE right now, and he looked very solid in ring even if he kinda was off his game. (Forced to work the arm)
I think WWE will probably go with a Ziggler vs Cena program, & a Punk vs Orton program.
I think Ziggler vs Sandow will materialize shortly after.
I just think they want to make them a legitimate threat, like they did when pairing the likes of Sheamus, Orton and Cena up against the Shield.
TBH, I think they need it. Especially seeing as I don't really think Rowan is that great a wrestler. I like Bray and Harper, and I think in the right kind of match they could really shine.
Dolph pinned Axel clean on Raw. Hoping an IC shot comes out of it.
That push Big E is getting is nice, I think. I like the guy; he's solid in the ring, a real powerhouse, and he can actually use the mic when he has to.
He is a natural babyface, and apparently Cena sees money in him.
Ziggler needs to pick up some more wins, I get that Randy is the golden one but nothing Iggler said was new news.
I think Rowan needs to use the Von Erich claw more and drop the spin kick, its just not in his character. I like the Wyatt's but I hope this doesn't kill all that Bryan has been building towards. That said it could just be for a major Survivor series match.
Wyatts, Sandow& Real Americans
Vs
Punk, Bryan, Rhodses, Big E, & Ziggler.

I find angles involving the Game have failed in the last few years. I think casual fans have finally smartened up to the "part-timers" and stop go storylines.
Stephanie has really shined, imo, as the heel in this story a lot more than Hunter, though for some reason I think there's something going on with HHH that we haven't seen yet.
The one thing that's really hurt this whole thing, imo, is Orton. He's a fantastic wrestler and an incredible worker, but for the life of me, the dude has just been a ****ing awful heel since he turned. Faces above all, whether it's through charisma, ring ability or a combination of both, have to get the crowd to love them.
Bryan has done that, imo.
He doesn't have to be super at promos (Bret Hart was never the greatest on the mic either), but he's awesome in the ring, and the crowd loves him. A heel has to be able to make the crowd hate them by using their own charisma. All the best heels had it. Even Sandow has it (and he does it so, so well).
Orton... No. His promo on Raw was good enough, but it's an outlier. Imagine if Bryan's rival in this feud had been heel Punk, or maybe a Heyman guy, or even the Orton of old? It would have really elevated things, imo.
Side note: I'm usually hot and cold when it comes to JBL, but he was spot on in calling out Michael Cole's fellating of John Cena. I get that Vince is probably screaming in Cole's ear, telling him to be like that, but it's still annoying as hell to me.
Cena pandering is only gonna get worse, and I thought that wasn't even possible. 🙁
If you haven't checked out NotSam on YouTube he has a great interview with Cole.
I think a corporate Orton doesn't fit his character, and his weird Rick rude promo was good but it isn't a gimmick for a top level guy imho. I think pandering heel is never a good idea and Show just isn't the guy to end the angle either.
That said a Cena vs Orton uniting the Titles at wrestlemania could be good, but that means the rumble will need to have a shady finish like double winners.
Cena vs 1 winner
Orton vs other winner
Unification match with the winners.

I'll have to look it up.
Cena and Orton feels very... I dunno, 2005 to me, I guess. There's a lot of talent in the undercard, and I really don't feel like those two holding the titles right now is healthy for the business.
Cena vs Orton at WM would be a snore-fest to me, tbh.

I hope Daniel will still be able to be in the title picture. I agree on Cena and Orton...these guys are the champs so many times.
Just don't be surprised when Cena goes over Ric Flair's title runs 🙁

Oh, I expect him to. Cena is their money-making machine; they just need to realise that they have three other belts that could all be given to good, young, singles talent.

Sighs...yeah. I think it's also safe to say, that Del Rio will fail a second attempt to recapture the WHC from Cena.
Man I would like to see Bryan and Punk as the champs than Cena and Orton. Feuding with The Wyatt family, may help Bray,Luke and Rowan, but it feels like a step down for Punk and Bryan who should in my opinion be going after Cena and Orton.

2 away from what WWE considers all Flair's wins114 away from Lawler though, so there is that...
Yeah ...remember when Rey won the title on raw and then the very same night lost it to Cena...that was like wow. Cena just keeps getting fed title shots.
