Derek: Here we have another Night of Champions rematch, but stuff actually happened to further this feud. Giving him a title run would not only keep the title respected by fans but let him break away from being Roman’s sidekick. They have teamed with Rusev recently as well, and with success. Orton is off the show with an injured shoulder, so we have this hastily thrown together six-man tag team match, featuring a bunch of individuals who have somewhat-resolved issues with one another. One would have to believe that eventually the WWE will pull the trigger on the faces’10th reign with the tag gold, but it’s been so much fun having them chase the heels. Owens will win with the pop-up powerbomb. The going figures to get extremely tough against Ryback. I assume the faces will win here.
Brock took control with his power early on. That the match is inside the Cell, where violence is preordained and catastrophe is anticipated, only underscores that. They had a simply fantastic match last month (and most of that was thanks to the work Nikki did). According to What Culture, this is the last 2015 booking for either man, but that’s always possible to change at any time.
Analysis: That was a decent match, but I’m not wild about the tag team champions losing to a team that has no designs on winning the title.
As most die-hard wrestling fans can attest, the Intercontinental Championship hasn’t been prominent for several years and it is now the least important championship in WWE (even behind the United States Championship, a shocking notion). It pains me to ay this, but Nikki Bella will be the new Divas Champion. I’d be much more interested in Charlotte feuding with Paige or any of the other NXT call-ups. Not only will Nikki Bella have twin sister Brie and Alicia Foxx at ringside, but there’s also the possibility Paige gets involved and costs Charlotte her title. The numbers game could prove to be too much for the champ to overcome. To this day, I don’t know if I’d be a pro wrestler if I hadn’t gotten sick. Would the WWE put Breeze in a match with Cena for the USA title in his first official match in the WWE?
The gist: Miz introduced Ziggler and asked him how it felt to be tossed aside on TMZ. That’s one of the reasons why Reigns, at a few point, needs to turn heel. So, you have a situation where it really does make sense for both teams to win.
Even if he doesn’t lose the title (which he very well might not!), there are a lot of very exciting options as to who might challenge him. Second, Rollins isn’t likely to lose to Kane.
And the opponents were as numerous as they were varied: Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Rusev, Stardust, Bad News Barrett, Neville, Kane, Zack Ryder, Cesaro, Xavier Woods, Big E, Dolph Ziggler. It’s being billed – loudly – as their last match ever.
Yes, Kane becomes the transitional champion for all of five minutes. I don’t see why she shouldn’t be next in line. They’d been trying to build this Reigns/Wyatt feud for months now, with varying degrees of success. It all started at Money in the Bank. When they came back on, Bray Wyatt was standing at the base of the ladder. The Eater of Worlds toppled the ladder, and Sheamus ended up stealing the briefcase, the win, and the title shot. There’re so many problems with the product with Lesnar vs. Taker and Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt.
This year, the show will be headlined by what should be the final meeting between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker. 888 Sport, Betfair and Unibet have Brock Lesnar at 1/5 odds and The Undertaker at 3 while Bwin has the match at 1/3 odds for Lesnar and 2 for Taker. This match had a controversial ending. “I’m at home, I’m working out, my life is great, everything’s in tune, my contract’s coming to an end with WWE, hey it’s been a great time but something’s missing”. The referee explained to all parties that he did not see the tapout. So, the WWE record books show this rivalry as one win apiece. Lesnar wins barring something illegal by ‘Taker or outside interference by a yet-to-be-known third party.
13-5. Dwayne Bryant is 13-5 (72%) on his last 18 MAX Side Bets.
