Looks like we've got a Ziggler/Breeze storyline on the go. Rather suspect that it'll lead to neither guy going anywhere, but it's at least something new.

Surprised Solomonster selected Wyatts vs Shield from Elimination Chamber as one of his 8 favourite WWE matches, but I',m so glad he did. Love, love, love that match.

FMD, WWE is the most watched YouTube channel two months in a row? Why does nobody talk about this when discussing ratings?

That could be as much as $20,000,000 a year and rising. This is why I hate reading what people have to say about the falling ratings of Raw. It isn't JUST because of the product, this is happening everywhere for all of TV. The company could definitely be doing better but they're an absolute juggernaut of a brand and are rocking it on their internet forays.

Does anyone here actually check out their channel? What's it doing right?

Condenses the whole of Raw into aa 3minute top 10 moments of Raw video. That's basically how I stay up to speed now. Hardly watch full raws.

Also does anyone else hate Asukas ring attire? I love everything about her but the colours of her in ring attire are so terrible.

Holy **** is Joe going to follow x to the main roster?
I need some heels for my Seth Rollins plan. So i'll take him and Dolph. But it could be other people. Owens would be perfect but....

Anyway, basically one of the heels beats Cena in the open challenge. We'll say Joe. At the time he's not a heel though. Fast forward to Kane-Rollins. At some point, the ref gets taken out by Rollins. And then Dolph comes racing down with a Ref's shirt on, and he plays it down the line for awhile and it's not clear whose side is on, but then Dolph "HBK" Ziggler superkicks Kane and Seth uses the pedigree, ala HHH v Taker, to get the pinfall. And then they take the mic and cut a promo about how the old authority is dead and that it sucked because of old ****s like Kane and Big Show and J&J Security and that Rollins won't be losing anymore, and Dolph appoints himself as Kane's replacement, and then John Cena comes racing down because of course and gets into a confrontation with them, but then the guy who wins the open challenge comes down and takes Cena down from behind, and then they all beat him up really really badly.

And then they spend the next couple of months squashing everyone and cutting awesome promos and chilling with the new day. the end.

New Day to win the challenge would be awesome. Then "injuring" Cena in a situation like this. Would be gun.

Irish whip into trouble in paradise is my new favourite tag move.

I was going to post about this the other day when there were discussions about the ratings dropping but didn't get round to it.

Their Youtube channel is awesome. Day after RAW highlights go on and they're decent length highlights too. They get ridiculous amounts of views too. The Kane-Rollins Lumberjack match from last week had well over 1m views after less than a week and now has almost 2m views, the Lesnar-Taker segment already has over 1m views. It's a great way to keep up with what's happening if you don't have time to watch RAW. Personally, I watch RAW, but catch-up on Smackdown via Youtube. It's great.

They also share some other decent content too. Tom Philips does a regular "5 Things" segment which is really good, they do regular Top 10's, and stuff that's not seen on TV like backstage interviews and promo's. If you're into Youtube and use subscriptions, the WWE's channel is well worth adding to the list. They put some great stuff out, there's a reason they have over 8m subscribers. Their channel and WhatCultureWWE are my favourite Wrestling-based Youtube channels.

Still watching that New Day video. They're ****ing awesome. If Big E never holds the WWE Title it'll be a travesty. He's incredible.

Their YouTube channel is essentially what the network should be, but with the network offering even better stuff. instead the network is impossible to search, the streaming quality sucks and you don't get yourself into wormholes. so even when there is good stuff, i don't watch it because the experience sucks. but that's just me

also whatculture is having their stuff taken down which sucks but i guess wwe has a point

It looks like whatculture is able to release stuff again, I think the Austin video bit about the domestic violence drew their ire.
