I agree.

I am really getting pissed how the WWE are handling Paige. She is literally doing sh!t. Anyone who watched her in NXT,knows the lady can wrestle and go the distance. Now her matches have been piss poor these last few raws,and smackdowns. I am sure at Battlegroung ,her match with AJ will be the shortest match on the card. I enjoyed Paige's matches in NXT, more than watching Cena in the ring.

Tbf i don't think Paige has gained a single fan, that she didn't already have prior to her main roster debut. That said the Diva's in general get nearly no support from the company.

Any word or rumor on Sting?

St least one match, but it was supposed to be with Undertaker. With the stresk gone, and TT's health, not sure...

lol jobber beatdown

Sting will win the World Heavyweight championship.

He is widely respected and it is the one title he never won.

He will drop at the next PPV but it will be great to see.

Sting isn't going over Cena or Lesnar

Battleground predictions

Funkadaktyl pre show match: Naomi

Uso vs Wyatt: Wyatt's win

AJ vs Paige: AJ

Swagger vs Rusev: Rusev; in less than 5 minutes

International championship: Miz to set up unification match with Sheamus.

Wyatt vs Jericho: Wyatt

Ambrose vs Rollins: Ambrose via Kane DQ

WWE title: Cena duh. Lesnar attacks to end show. Rollins & Kane will fight outside, probably HHH interference to screw Reigns.

Great predictions.

Have to say, the Wyatts are due to win. Been a long time since we've had a monster team as Champs.

Bray is due, too. He needs it after his Cena program.

Hope you're wrong about a Rusev squash. Swagger can lose, but dont kill his momentum.

Oh, something i wanted to get opinions on.

Rollins MUST successfully cash in MiTB.
With Cena and Sandow both screwing up what up until then was an unwritten guaranteed thing over the last couple years, and there only being one contract this time out, the gimmick needs a shot in the arm.

Agreed at Rollins, but I don't know if I would pull the trigger on him this soon. Maybe he could be a good champ, I dunno.

I do think Cena will retain tonight, but I honestly would not be surprised if he doesn't. He's going to be off Raw for a while due to filming movies, and him vs Lesnar doesn't need to be a title match to be a big draw. Then again, Heyman did say he had a "Plan C" for the Authority, and he's supposedly not with Cesaro anymore. And I doubt it's Punk.

Dirtsheets are even saying that Cesaro's push has been halted while they push Reigns.

Swagger can lose now and win at Summerslam, as that's generally a more "USA" ppv than a lot of others.

For the IC BR, I honestly could see Del Rio being a dark horse. Guys like Cesaro, Ziggler, Miz and Sheamus can get good odds, but if Del Rio did resign, i'd have to wonder what they offered him to keep him around.

Im guessing Rollins will cash in the raw after wrestlemania, on Reigns who will go over Lesnar.

#BoldPredictions

lol, well THAT was interesting.

So this is how WWE plans to dig them out of the Networks debt. Quite possibly the worst ppv from both a booking an an execution standpoint...

Bury the Wyatt's & push Cameron wtf'n f***. I'm a 20+ year long fan and honestly I'm about to give up on it.

I honestly thought the PPV was decent, up until the end.

Cameron's push doesn't hurt anyone, imo, and they needed to give her heat.

Wyatts v Usos was a really good match, and even the ending, as unexpected as it might have been for some, was well executed. They just really need to get the Ascension brought up.

Jericho vs Wyatt was a good match, and though I was surprised Jericho won, Wyatt needs some PPV wins.

Paige v Aj wasn't great, but it was still better than most women's matches.

The IC match would have been even better if they hadn't made it blatantly obvious Miz was just biding his time. That camera work was shoddy. Otherwise it was a solid match with some nice spots.

The only really disappointing part, for me, was the main event, and even that had some nice spots. Cena again though. **** that was bad. Then Renee Young afterwards asking him how he beat the odds. Jesus.

Honestly, being someone who hated Battleground last year, this is a step up.

Hopefully Lesnar appears on Raw, to pound Cena.

The push hurts Naomi, she should be fueding with Aj, if you want to get Cameron over have her manage a guy like Sandow who can generate heat just standing there.

The Wyatt's are officially a joke bordering on 3MB level... why did DB put him over at EC if Bray can't beat anyone else.

I honestly hate this Cena is the G.o.a.t. BS i mean how can a company push a guy that atleast 50% of the audience HATES and probably 10% would troll his memorial show if he died in the middle of a match.

Huh. Underwhelmed is the word for me.

After a great tag match, which did surprise me with the ending, the rest of the show was meh.

Ambrose/Rollins cancelled was the worst. The fans wanted this. If they were going to save it till SS, they shouldnt have teased it so much. To me it also high lighted the need for a face Authority figure. When the main bad guys have no legit counter, it makes for bad story telling.

Swagger/Rusev could have, should have, been way better. The two didnt seem to click and the ending was the pits.

Wyatt/Jericho was awkward and boring with a spot here and there. Another PPV loss for Wyatt, to a guy who put over Fandango at WM. Yikes.

I love that Miz won the IC title, just not the crappy way he did it. He should have ended strong, giving us a heel champ on the Barrett level, who was no craven wuss.
Also, Cesaro eliminated by Slater. Yeah, his future is on hold indefinitely, with Heyman set to concentrate on lesnar...

Cena retains. No problem with that. I like that he didnt pin Reigns though. At least it keeps the big man's momentum going.

I don't think it hurts Naomi at all. Cameron got a lucky win, and it'll just make it sweeter when Naomi beats her.

That's a bit of an exaggeration imo; The Wyatts have still looked tough, and went all the way with the Usos last night. The end of the Jericho match was weird though. You can thank Cena as much as anyone for that burial though. The feud with Cena was supposed to be the making of Bray Wyatt, but again, someone else has to lay down.

Certainly not Hogan 2.0.

And If I seem mad about Cena, I am. That ****ing jumping up and down when he won after what's supposed to be a gruelling match was ****ing awful. Way to sell your opponent's offence...

Eh, I honestly think we needed a wussy heel, and I think Miz is the best option for it since Punk took his ball and went home.
