"Ok Paul E., how can we save this?" I can only imagine that is what happened, because somehow, someway, they made a RAW that was cancelled, with no live in ring segments or matches, entertaining. The interview segments were all good to great. Starting with Rollins and ending with Brock and Reigns face to face. That's the Reigns I can live with, not the fucking sufferin' succutash shit. He and Brock, limited talkers no doubt, both delivered a solid segment for a match that no one wanted to see. Paul E. building up Reigns' family lineage was great. Solid build already, man. I think they may have found the solution. Not only that, by Bryan got an interview as well, and his slight digs at Reigns and being adamant that his quest for the title will continue has given me hope that we may some some interesting stuff between Reigns and Bryan at some point too. Yeah I wanna see Bryan vs. Lesnar, but they've actually turned me around on Reigns vs. Lesnar. It could still suck but if they keep a serious build like they started last night, it could work. For me. The fans may still try to piss on it, but it'll be interesting.
Rasslin'! Even when it fails miserably, it can pull you back in the next day. If they had they had just kept Bryan in until the end, and changed some shit around, Reigns still could have won and not got the terrible reaction that he got. It wouldn't have been good no matter how you slice it, but they literally ruined the Rumble when Bryan went out so early. They were out of their fucking minds and I still have no idea why they did that.
