This could be a good pairing with a story, but it kind of sucks as a throwaway tournament match.

JBL brings up Lawler slapping Kauffman on Letterman & Cole goes.....
Cole: Could you imagine Ambrose with Hoda & Kathie Lee?
JBL: Fun ladies!
Really wish we didn't have two 50 year olds on commentary. (I know Saxton is there, but you know what I mean).

This could be a good pairing with a story, but it kind of sucks as a throwaway tournament match. That's the bad part of not having enough legit threats for the World title. It's just Ambrose & Reigns. All these matches are fine & all, but they're incredibly predictable. Kalisto beating Ryback was fun, but neither guy is a World title contender. |

That Dolph superkick wasn't even close. That will be a fun gif in about four minutes.

I'm all for replacing Cole with a fishtank.

Dreading this contract signing. Charlotte promos suck & Paige promos are repetitive.

Cesaro as the Authority kingpin, standing next to Trips, decked out in a suit, would look great.
Just wish creative thought the same.

This match is the 3rd quarterfinal match? What in the fuck?
"Is the Roman Empire in the house tonight?" Ugh.

Don't get me wrong, Cesaro looks great in a suit. No homo, not that there's anything wrong with that. But I don't think he would get over as the corporate champion. |

I definitely see where you're coming from, but I really do think he could. He can talk (over time he'd improve, look at what it did for Rollins), has the look & we all know he's one of (if not the) best wrestler on the roster. Having Reigns chase him wouldn't be the worse thing.
He'd look better as a corporate champ than Reigns IMO. But again, I don't think it'll happen. Which sucks.

As I said, making Reigns heel champ works for a number of reasons, not the least of which are (a) he doesn't have to cut his own promos if they don't want and (b) it makes Rollins super-face upon his return. And yes he can still do his nicey-nice appearances.
I'd just like to mention I had a ending for that last sentence that was so awful that I deleted it in its entirety, so for those that know me, consider and then enjoy guessing what might have been.

I will start from the end. If you'll pardon the expression. Thank you. I know Cesaro is so great in the ring he can work any style. But if they really got behind him all the way as a face, he could be even bigger. Not many guys can do that. Anyone can be a heel, with the exception of Steamboat and Pam Anderson. As Don said, Reigns could be the natural heel right now. |

If they weren't going to chicken shit heel turn route in the tournament for Reigns, I'm glad they're making him look strong. It will make everything better regardless of the direction.

I'll put aside my asshole smarkyness for a second. That was a great match. Really hope they go with Kalisto with the next match, as it would give Reigns wins against a giant, a technician & a flippy guy.
Also in regards to Cesaro as the Claudio Castsgnoli used car dealer looking days, I saw him wrestle in 2005 for IWA-Mid South & he made fun of my shoes. Haha, felt the need to point that out. That pic brought back memories.

The Dudley's are already in the cooler match. Heel turn come January.
