Gentlemen.
Look. We had some good times, really , we did. Kicked a lot of ass, tore things up, had a blast.
But seriously, where were we going? We just gonna keep wandering around picking fights, hi-fiving, forever?
Those good times were good. But, it's like high school. A lot of fun, the memories will last a life time, but if you keep hanging out with the same people, doing the same things, going the same places, what does that make you?
A loser. And I'm not a loser. I've got dreams, boys, and nobody gives you a dream, just for being a nice guy.
Me and Triple H, we've had a differences, man, we nearly killed each other, but he's a guy who gets it.
He wasn't happy just being some guy. He wanted to be a champion, he wanted to be a boss, and he did what he had to. And so did I. Cause I'm not just some guy either. He's the man who knows how to get it done.
No hard feelings, I hope. I just had to... evolve.
So Seth Rollins just did a full circle and went Age of the Fall again. Unless you count the Shield as a heel group to start.
New SHIELD member: Jimmy Jacobs.
Jimmy Jacobs is also terrible.
Seriously, Sam Roberts did an interview with Rollins where they discuss Jacobs a bit, and you sorta can hear Rollins gingerly step around the fact that he was the breakout star of every tag team he's been in with Jimmy. Also that Rollins is like a foot taller than Jacobs.
Oh man I just remembered that really awkward pause and giggle when Rollins was talking. Now it has more meaning unless he just flubbed a line.
I dunno, I might have been too busy trying to figure out what the hell Reigns was trying to say in his part of the promo. Something about brothers, justice, excellence, fists, etc.
Although Brandon Stroud, who has always not been a fan of Rollins on the mic, has jokingly claimed that Rollins being so terrible on the mic all this time was all part of the plan.
Can't wait til Ambrose realizes shit is going pear shaped and he decides to cut and run as well.
Over on R/SquaredCircle, people are fantasy booking next week's inevitable "Why, Seth? Why?" promo. My contribution was something along the lines of Rollins realizing Evolution was never going to stop chasing them, and that they just kept getting closer and closer to beating them at these PPVs and weekly Raw beatdowns.
Maybe Rollins can say that he had gotten tired of saving The Shield in these matches with the sacrifices of his body. The dives at Extreme Rules and Payback. They can even show footage from TLC 2012 if they want to bring it full circle, with Rollins being the one who takes the sickest bump of the match (falling off the ladder through two tables, wanging his head on one)
Of course, Seth will say something like "I did what anyone else in my position would have done", make some sort of pun or something about "evolving", etc.
Maybe he'll cut his hair or something, who knows. Probably gonna wear suits, go back to the FCW/NXT style tights.
When she hits it square, yes. Other times it looks really silly, and being that Charlotte is much taller than the other women on the roster (billed at 5'10''), she almost breaks her neck somersaulting in the air.
Do they sell those goofy Rybaxel caps on the WWE store and I just can't find them?
Also, I guess I need a new avatar/sig theme now. Unless someone's already got a Rule 63 New Evolution picture uploaded...
They don't sell any of the cool tag team stuff in the store. No Real American track jackets, no Rybaxel beanies, no Rhodes Brothers hooded trenchcoats.
Also, I was seriously considering doing my hair like Rollins, and/or dressing up as a Shield member for Halloween. Now I don't know what I'll do. Dressing up like other wrestlers just seems goofy.
I'll be honest: This bugs the hell out of me. Not that they've broken up the Shield-- as noted earlier, Vince can't stand stables/teams being together for very long-- I know well enough to accept that.
It's the timing of it. The two things which have kept me watching the past few months as I was feeling fatigued going into WrestleMania were Daniel Bryan and the newly-turned Shield. One of those is on the shelf, and the other just broke up.
I was interested in grabbing tickets for when WWE comes to town in July, but now... I kind of have to wait and see.

*sigh* I guess it was time huh? They peaked and reached the ceiling.
Not only did the beat a trio of arguably the best faction in the last 10 years but these 3 young talents got put over huge and clean by a group of men that total 31 world championships.
Who was left after this?
Sure another wyatts feud would be great but it wouldn't be a step up from evolution.
Sure it makes us sad but they peaked as a faction last night. If not now then when?

So does that make HHH Jimmy Jacobs and Randy Orton the Necro Butcher?

Dammit Jacobs needs to be a heel manager in WWE.

I'm going to take this time to remind people that Jimmy Jacobs has a victory over Eddie Guerrero in WWE from an episode of Smackdown.
