Sin Cara II defeated Wade Barrett. Because why not? Sin Cara II has the gimmick of a failed Sin Cara I, and the physique of Mil Mascaras I in 1996. Why not give him a mini-push over a possible main event guy. Great stuff. Spot on. Sell those masks Vince.

Very entertaining main event. Even Show entertained me again with all the shit talking he was doing in and around the ring. Total time of match was 8:22.

I've stayed away from all the spoilers and am pretty pumped for this. Daniel Bryan is seconds away from wrestling on TV for the first time in 9 months!!!

Well Daniel's neck can't be all that bad. Kane has been cranking on it for 3/4th of the match thus far.

Segment 3 No Wrestle 2:47 Wrestle 3:33 - Bryan/Kane
No contest at 8:15 when J&J Security broke it up. Authority went after Bryan up the ramp and out came Reigns & Ambrose. Yep. We're having a 6 Man later tonight. Bryan/Ambrose/Reigns v. Rollins/Show/Kane.
We also have an Intercontinental Title match with Sin Cara. I swear to God if........
Lawler's shirt is pissing me off.

Macho HOF vignette. Bray Wyatt mini-promo deal, and the Usos entrance. I could've done without any of that.

Miz/Mizdow v. Usos for the strap at Rumble. Naomi will accidentally cause the Usos to lose the titles. You heard it here first.

Mixed tags are dumb. They actually let Reigns to another backstage interview. Renee cut her hair. Still SMOKIN!!! Maybe even more so. YOWZA!!
Paul Heyman is walking backstage. Walking FAST and looking PISSED. This could be good.

Nattie wins with the sharpshooter. Renee wins with her new haircut but we all lose as Big Show and Kane have a stare down backstage due to them both being in the Rumble.

Segment 11 No Wrestle 1:42 Wrestle 9:07
Business really picked up in the second part of that match and Bryan got the win at the 14:19 mark. I really didn't see where Bryan changed his in-ring style whatsoever. Rollins continues to shine in anything he's involved with. Bryan v. Kane next week with Daniel's spot in the Rumble on the line. And I thought I saw a poster where Bryan wasn't pictured for the Rumble. I have no idea what any of that means.

Seeing as Barrett is in the Rumble & starting to do a feud now wouldn't get much attention. A 2 week program with a name like Sin Cara doesn't bother me that much. No way would they have him lose the title & it's Hunico, not the botchfest first Sin Cara, so the match itself was fine tonight. That ending was solid, the springboard into the Bull Hammer. Gives Barrett that RKO-effect that he can hit it out of nowhere.
Rollins & Heyman were fantastic. Rollins has improved so much since they first started letting The Shield talk, it's great. Meanwhile, the Roman promo wasn't terrible like Monday, but it was more awkward than anything. He's trying to be Joe Cool with his sound effects & winking at Renee leaving the shot, it's stupid. It takes me out of anything I'm supposed to be interested in.
Not saying Reigns won't be ready eventually, but I truly hope he doesn't win the Rumble.

I agree with all of this other than the specifics of the Barrett Sin Cara deal. Barrett should've just crushed him twice. Having him lose to Sin Cara last week is just inexplicable. I might have to watch that Rollins/Heyman interaction one more time. And I almost never watch stuff twice. But it was just that damn good.

Yeah I get it. Sin Cara really has no reason being in that spot, defeating him in the non title & getting a shot the following week. Especially since he hasn't been featured on the main roster for ages aside from squash matches. Honestly, why they didn't use someone like Swagger. I wouldn't have minded Swagger getting the pin & title shot.
Then again Swagger put Barrett on the shelf if I remember correctly. So they should probably keep Swagger the hell away from him.

I am watching for once. Not bad so far with Daniel Bryan opening it up and firing up the crowd and then bringing out the re-hired three. Ryback is actually speaking and not sounding like a train wreck. He is much better as a happy meathead bodybuilding then a snarling beast.

Unfortunately for Rusev, he put all of the train wreck into his work that night. He did a standing suplex and dropped Rusev on his side. It was right by the ropes. Rusev looked like he was ready to get up and shoot on him.

I can't read this thread until I watch this when the Bucks are over. I did mistakenly come across a small spoiler that a certain returning superstar took a shot at Punk - supposedly. Didn't read what was said though.

Apparently Eric Rowan discovered how to make complete sentences while he was away. These promos just drag and drag. That's already 1/6th of the show right there.

I get the storyline but it seems silly that Dolph, Ryback, Big Red and Bryan would have to fight their way into the Rumble. What the hell else is the E going to do, put the Bull, the Bunny, and Hornswoggle into it? Wait, don't answer that.
