Dynamite report........
- Dave Meltzer speculated on today’s installment of Wrestling Observer Radio that if Kevin Owens defeats Dean Ambrose clean at tonight’s TLC event, that the company is most likely grooming Owens for Brock Lesnar for their rumored bout at WrestleMania 32.
Meltzer would go on to mention that if Owens wins via DQ, that they probably aren’t grooming him for that WrestleMania bout.

He's a kiss-ass. Fuck him. I was just coming back to say something to that effect. I was going to say that the only thing I kinda don't dig about him is that I wish he would stick to his guns on some thoughts as he gets a little too agreeable with Austin at times. |

Maybe that sways my opinion of him too harshly.
But at least Meltzer will tell someone their idea is bad.

I was thinking of scenarios for Mania. They are in desperate need of heels, now I know he would be cheered like crazy coming in, but what if they had a guy like Samoa Joe win the Royal Rumble? What has been Triple H's finest achievement since taking over as COO? His development of NXT into a major place to be. What happens of they have Joe be a surprise entrant & win, go on to Mania & face Reigns for the title. Just have Joe slaughter nearly all the faces (I mean choke them out, not pin everyone) & get heat that way. Trips could be backing Joe, his NXT killer, ready to takeover on the main roster & make Reigns' life hell. Play off the Samoan heritage if they need. That way you don't have Triple H fighting for the title at Mania, you have someone new win the Rumble, you have a new dominant heel & you have Reigns get his overcoming the odds moment at Mania. Whatever happens, Cena/Taker, if they do that, should close the show as Takers final match.
Just spitballing. The Rumble has become a joke in recent years, this would give it a shock value it needs & put NXT in the spotlight, bringing even more recognition to the show, even after Joe has left.

I'm all for it but I doubt Vince thinks that Joe can sell out Cowboys stadium.

He can't & neither can Reigns. Cena, Taker, Brock can. And if they bring in the Rock, it won't be as a wrestler I bet. So just have him in Reigns' corner & Trips in Joe's. Have them both get involved, do their classic trading punches & Rock gets a Rock Bottom to make the crowd happy.
I'm trying desperately to find a way NOT to have Trips/Reigns for the title. All depends on the Rumble. Maybe Brock/Reigns again, but is that really a Mania main event again?

The need to spend the next few RAW's feeling out the crowd reaction to Reigns.....not the crowd reaction to (insert name) lays out HHH and Vince in consecutive nights.
What heel would you have him face that is going to have to win the rumble in order to face him? ADR would be horrific. Owens would be awesome but he isn't "ready" I would assume. Who the hell is even left that is on that level? ok....lets see Heel cena win the rumble. That would be kinda cool.
I forgot about Brock. He could join the authority I guess.

Yeah I can't remember how it went but I kept reading how JoJo would be so happy for him or something like that. So I figured it was that announcer chick.

Of course Hunter is the most viable heel for a Reigns Mania match. He's been positioned as the top heel over the champion since Orton.
- At this time, WWE Officials have not yet decided on who will face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 32 on Sunday, April 3rd, 2016 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Even though Triple H would make most sense at this time, and other names being be built up in the next few months there is not a clear ‘Wrestlemania level’ heel set up right now. There has been some mention of possibly another match with Brock Lesnar having the most potential, but he would still likely get cheered against Reigns, just like the Undertaker and John Cena would as well.
There were discussions about having a “passing of the torch-type” match between Reigns and Cena, which just might some sense, but that was talked about before Seth Rollins was injured.

The Wrestling Observer is also reporting that Jack Evans and Angelico did an interview recently with Planeta Deporte in Spain and said they were approached by WWE officials twice regarding NXT deals, however the two wrestlers said they would be remaining with Lucha Underground as long as its around.

Read there's also a house show tonight that'll be taking place when Raw is on the air. So the roster will be thin for this one. Fully expect a lot of in ring talking/bullshit & dumb skits. It's in Brooklyn, so there's a strong chance Enzo & Cass might debut. Vince is back too, so definitely see him & Roman dominating the show with terrible back & forth.
I'm also sure Steph will slap every male on the roster.
