Here's the good news for Barrett. See what I did there? I kill me. Anyway, he's over. He can stay over. He can do the whole "Bad News" gimmick without wrestling.
"I'm afraid I've got some bad news! I'm not allowed to perform tonight!" *Crowd cheers* (Maybe)
He goes on to say he's got some more bad news, and does the gimmick when it first started. He's over, and he could keep it going. As long as he's only out for a month, this could get him over even more.

This is more proof for me that they are using the injury to get away from DB. This is absolutely horrible positioning. The pre-show? I know this is a different day, but Austin, Rock, Hunter, etc. would be in the middle of the show defying authority in some way. Not answering fan questions on the internet before the show.
WWE has announced that in addition to addressing the WWE Universe for the first time since he was stripped of the title, Daniel Bryan will also be taking fan questions on the Money in the Bank pre-show. Fans can submit questions via Twitter using the hashtag #WWEKICKOFF.

Brad Maddox is apparently, allegedly, supposedly stuck in a cave somewhere.

I hope they end up doing something with Maddox. He can wrestle, just never has has a chance, but I really liked him on tv. If this leads to him doing something, anything, then I'm all for it.
As for BNB, if they take him out of the match, there's a few options. 1: Sandow. He's been a joke sure, but they could just say he's won before & fill they void. 2: Big Show. He could do 1 or 2 spots & that's enough. 3: Mark Henry. If he isn't still storylined injured for the 5th time.
At first I'd say leave Barrett in there, but risking further injury isn't worth it. He can cut promos until his shoulder heals. No need to take the title off him.

Alberto Del Rio Says CM Punk Will Be Back, Talks Money In The Bank, Being A True Heel, Roman Reigns, Much More
June 27, 2014
Alberto Del Rio talked with Digital Spy recently and discussed a TON of stuff in promotion for this Sunday's WWE Money In The Bank pay-per-view. Del Rio talked CM Punk's departure, heels wanting to be "cool", being a former MITB winner, and much more.
Check out some of the highlights below:
On CM Punk coming back to the company:
"Yeah, of course. He'll be back soon. I don't know when, but he'll back."
On too many heels wanting to be cool:
"Oh, yeah of course! I would say that 95% of the heels want to be cool, they want to be cheered, they want to sign autographs. They wanna be the bad guys but at the same time they wanna get the cheers from the crowd.
To be honest, for me that's disgusting, because you have to play your role. In life, in the business, if you're the bad guy you're the bad guy – you need to embrace people booing you, when people hate you.
That's what I do, that's what real heels do. They're still doing it in other places around the world. They still do it in Japan, they still do it in Mexico. The heel is a heel. He's a bad guy, period!"
On Roman Reigns and The Shield breaking up:
"I don't really think about The Shield, but I can tell you something – Roman Reigns is a great competitor. He's strong, fast. I would say he is the new rising star for the WWE.
He's going to a great competitor that night, but unfortunately he's going to be in the ring with Alberto Del Rio, so I don't think he's going to win the title."
This was a great interview with Alberto Del Rio with a lot of topics covered. You can check out the full interview at DigitalSpy.com.

I'm gonna go ahead and go with what Heyman said about Punk. I'd be surprised if Punk was back anytime before Mania - IF then.
If AJ is pregnant, neither one of them will be around for years.

I agree.
I can't see him back for a few years.

I think it'll be like Jericho & he'll be gone for a while & come back when/if he gets the itch again. But I'm assuming he left the company on bad terms, so I don't know if he'd really be welcome back. Then again, WWE is all about making cash, so that point makes no sense, of course they'll welcome him back. They did it to Austin when he walked out.
AJ on the other hand, if she's pregnant, good for her, start a family, she's done practically all you can do in the Divas division (not saying much considering their Divas at the moment), been involved in major storylines, Raw GM, top heel for a while. I would be surprised if she even comes back in all honesty.
Then again who the hell knows, his contract is up in July & for all we know he could come through the crowd right as Cena is about to win it, grab the title & bail. Which would be funny.

I had no idea which thread to post this in, but I read someone put on Twitter an idea for Bo Dallas.
Have his finisher be a submission hold, figure four or something, but yell encouragement to his opponent when they're in pain. All they have to do is BO-lieve in themselves & they can get out of it.
I just needed to share that because that was amazing.

I'm coming around. This idea could make him huge. |

 Maybe give him the STF so he can be by an opponents ear and tell him to bolieve. But that's genius. Hopefully a writer saw it and uses it. |

I wasn't the biggest Body Dallas fan at first but I've come around totally. The stuff with the submission is gold.
After he beat Titus the other day and Titus slapped the mic out of his hands and Bo jumped out to go get it and said something along the line of "whoops silly butterfingers me". I actually laughed out loud at that one.

Hopefully he saw the tweet then & it didn't get mixed in with the tons of tweets I'm sure he gets saying "Bo-lieve!"
I was thinking, have it be a Million Dollar Dream he uses & have it called the Bo To Sleep, it'd be a jab at Punk & be hilarious. (I'm copyrighting that right now)

Yeah the Go Dallas thing is working right now because he's such a bad actor. If they ever expect the character to evolve they're screwed because he's so useless on the mic. He'll be off TV before mania 32.

I really want to get high with Brian Kendrick. I've got some thoughts on the Rotundo's possibly being members of one of those lizard families.

Score Jr and I just had an hour long discussion on all things E. He loves Bo Dallas. I told him about that idea up there with his finisher and he told me that that just made his day.
I hate all of you.

Report: 4 Top Matches for WWE SummerSlam Including Cena vs. Lesnar
Mike Killam Mike Killam
June 30, 2014
SEScoops.com has posted a report claiming that WWE has finalized the four top matches for this year's SummerSlam PPV. They are as follows:
John Cena vs. Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
Stephanie McMahon vs. Brie Bella
Bray Wyatt vs. Chris Jericho
Roman Reigns vs. Randy Orton
The main event is not a major surprise, as rumors of Cena/Lesnar at SummerSlam have been circulating for several weeks now, and were only escalated after Amazon published an early photo from the PPV DVD featuring the two stars. Chris Jericho made his return on this week's Monday Night Raw and was attacked by Bray Wyatt, so that match also makes sense, as does Brie Bella returning to the WWE to face Stephanie McMahon, who "fired" her when Daniel Bryan was stripped of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
The only minor surprise is that Roman Reigns is scheduled to face Randy Orton at the biggest PPV of the summer. There have been at least some talks of Reigns featured in a co-main event match with Triple H – the two even had a stare-down in the final moments of tonight's WWE Raw. Obviously plays for any of these matches can change at any time.
