I haven't watched a Raw since the one where Rollins turned on the Shield. I had been feeling so, so apathetic to the product for a while, but that just coupled with still no return for Bryan was more or less the final straw. That's big for me as I always watch Raw. To have turned me off is quite an achievement in shittery.

 

I'm still gonna watch this PPV, but I'm not holding out too much hope. The individual matches will probably be good, but the general booking direction of the company has been absolutely dire. And I given the matches and who's in them it's difficult for me to see a direction they can go in that will enthuse me.

I'm in exactly the same place as you dude, I haven't watched anything (well, apart from NXT) since the night after Payback. Tonight is a watershed moment for me and WWE. If John Cena or Randy Orton leave with the title, then I think it's pretty clear what WWE thinks of it's fans and it's next generation of talent, and I refuse to condone that by watching it any more.

 

It's not even "If Cena Wins We Riot" tonight for me is more "If Cena Wins I'm Done With This Bullsh*t".

I'm looking forward to this PPV, I've enjoyed the product since Payback and tonight should be good. I would like to see either Bray or Cesaro win but will they be sacrificed to Lesnar at Summerslam if the rumours are true?

Cena will win, he's booked to face Brock at SummerSlam.

From Wrestling 101:

 

After a second fine reign, current champion Vacant is coming to the end of their brief WWE title run. Tonight we crown a new Champion, along with a new MitB Briefcase Holder. If WWE hadn’t broken my damn heart 4 weeks ago I’d probably give a damn about that. Bear with me while I psyche myself up to plow through this whole shebang one more time. You could be about to see a man break down mentally through the course of one article. Strap in folks...

While I would like to see a guy like Cesaro or Bray Wyatt win the title tonight, I realize that this is WWE and, therefore, logic and common sense can immediately be thrown out of the window. With that said, I begrudgingly predict that John Cena will win the title. Since they are seemingly building up a feud between Cena and The Authority, giving the title to Cena seems a near certainty. Believe it or not, I would still rather see Cena win the title than I would see Orton win the title at this point.

 

There is no doubt in my mind that Seth Rollins will win the Money-in-the-Bank briefcase. It makes all the sense in the world for him to win that briefcase and, with the exception of Dean Ambrose, WWE has put a bunch of glorified jobbers into the match to make it even more apparent that either Rollins or Ambrose will win the match.

 

While The Usos reign as tag champions has been underwhelming, to say the least, I can't see WWE taking the belts off of them so soon. We know all too well that WWE always has terrible timing when it comes to title changes and WWE will keep the titles on The Usos for at least another three months before they even consider giving them to a new team.

 

I don't really care about Big E vs. Rusev in the slightest, to be honest. Really, the state that America is in currently makes some people, like myself, more likely to agree with Rusev & Lana. In any case, I expect Rusev to win this one.

 

I hope this Paige/Naomi/Cameron feud ends in one swoop at Money-in-the-Bank. Cameron is just a complete failure as an in-ring competitor and, as evidenced by her commentary on RAW, she has no promo skills at all. By their own hand, WWE is killing the Divas division right now. Paige is the only highlight at the moment and, until AJ Lee returns, I fear we will be stuck with mediocre feuds between Paige and the worst Divas that WWE seem determined to give television time.

 

While I am enjoying this strange Stardust angle they are doing, I'm not really sure what the end game is with it. I cannot see WWE putting the tag titles on Goldust & Stardust, so unless they have either Goldust or Stardust turn on the other and start a feud that way, I don't see there the whole angle is going.

 

The only thing I can say about Layla vs. Summer Rae is- at least it's not a midget match.

I've fallen off RAW recently ever since the Wyatts stopped going anywhere, and the Shield didn't get the break up they deserved. But even someone as jaded as me, and even a company as ignorant as WWE, I just can't see Cena winning. I can't see them being that stupid. They have to know, they just absolutely have know that this won't end well.

 

The only, ONLY way Cena wins is if he screws Reigns to do so. I've always really liked the idea of Cena acting more a more like a heel, and still not understanding why he's booed. Basically a more subtle, less funny, deeper Kurt Angle in his original gimmick. He's just so slimy and fake and forced and obnoxious that it feels like it would work perfectly. Roman's on the top of the ladder, reaching for the belts, only for Cena to push him off at the last minute, from behind, take them himself, and celebrate the victory like he's a baby face, like he's so used to be booed, whilst doing good things, that he's kinda gone insane and can't judge moral boundaries anymore, like a kid who gets beaten for no reason and ends up as a serial killer.

I really like Harper. Roawn is a pretty standard big guy but Harper carries their team with his facial expressions and crown interaction. He's one of my favourite wrestlers at the moment and I could see him having a good singles run at some point in the future.

lol Cena. Does it even mean anything to him anymore to win the belts? I'm sure it cant, and it also doesn't mean anything for business so I dunno why they always run back to him when they are out of ideas.

 

Reigns time will be at WrestleMania so I'm not bothered about him not winning, but anybody other than Cena would have been good, why not stick it on Wyatt and see how that pans out?
