    It does look like a pretty great card. The ladder match should be fun, Cena/Styles should deliver and I'm looking forward to Rollins/Reigns as well. Really though most of the card looks great, the only real dud for me is Ziggler/Corbin for the 900th time in three months. I'm also really interested in seeing what the commentary team looks like during the pre show.

    Good article on why Owens deserves the briefcase tomorrow

    http://uproxx.com/prowrestling/kevin-owens-deserves-to-win-money-in-the-bank-both-for-himself-and-for-wwe-fans/

    However, I'd rather he be the inaugural champion of whatever new World title they form, whether it be the Big Gold Belt again or a completely new thing. Personally I hope for a new title because Kevin Owens as the start of the lineage would be great.

    I don't understand this contract signing
    Why is allowing the Club in even on the table
    What tension is there that AJ would ever take that deal anyway

    By signing the "/w the Club" contract AJ is essentially admitting he can't beat Cena clean, and that he's going to have the Club interfere somehow, his victory will forever be tainted and he won't gain any credit for a "real" win over Cena.

    If he signs the "no Club" contract, which he did, he's agreeing to no Club at ringside, it'll be him and Cena, one on one, better man wins.

    I believe very few of my predictions for mitb but I am running with dean + a cash in so they can do shield triple threat at summerslam before they end up on different shows

    I don't think new day is gonna retain. I should have picked vaudevillains but I couldn't decide so I just stayed with new day.


    I love the raw/smackdown first pick question. I said Rusev and Rollins respectively.

    That's not even a remotely fair contest, why would you want to put Ospreay in there with a monster like Veda?

    Okay, but... why would he ever sign the first one
    Why would they have Cena give that spiel and then try to create any kind of expectation that AJ would actually do that one

    You should do what I did last night and watch some Tournament of Death. I love when CZW fans boo actual wrestling during a deathmatch.

    A friend of mine has tried to get me to go to that live for the past 3 years (the entirety that we have known each other) because he doesn't want to go alone and I keep turning him down.

    The only other year he went was when Nick Gage was helicoptered out of there.

    Which is the tournament of death with the weedwhacker? Watch that one!
    Or the Cage of Death where Chris Cash tries to take the name entirely too literally. God there's just so much CZW to recommend to people.

    He's basically calling AJ a coward and giving him an "out" to admit he can't beat Cena legit, after AJ and the Club beat the shit out Cena last time.

    Cena is basically taunting him, saying "admit you can't beat on me for real" and AJ gritted his teeth and wouldn't do that.

    That's his tired and sick of your shit face (also he's part pug and I'm pretty sure their faces just default to that).
