Just now watching Smackdown. ADR/Swagger was a hell of a match.

Natalya would demolish them both in the ring. She did something backstage to be put in this position.
 
I mean, if Mae Young can go through a table from the stage at 75+...
I guess so. Does the table absorb some of the impact? Like was it a better move to have him take that through the announce table than in the ring?
 
- When asked on Twitter which member of The Shield he's most impressed with, Triple H responded by putting all three of them over with the following:

“@wwe_jcena: @tripleh trips. Which shield member are you impressed with the most ?” Honestly.... All of them #realdeal

— Triple H (@TripleH)




- Multiple sources report that The Undertaker praised The Shield in front of the locker room after Monday’s RAW in London where they had the six-man match. Taker also praised Daniel Bryan for what he’s done lately.







- - WWE held their shareholders meeting on Friday with little fanfare and no new major reveals about anything, including the WWE Network. One shareholder in attendance noted that the meeting was kept unusually short, about an hour long. Vince McMahon was also described as short and dismissive with people asking questions.

Vince still feels the success of the WWE Network is certain. Vince also laughed off a question about The Rock not wrestling again and said WWE is happy with ratings and the third hour of RAW. WWE CFO George Barrios spoke and said WWE will triple their revenue through the Network and monetizing their social media.
 
still doesnt get old 

As cool as this moment was, it ended up actually being a pretty disastrous debut for Jericho. Instead of coming out looking like a threat and a immediate contender, he just gets verbally eviscerated by The Rock and then he storms off looking like a whiny ***** :lol: I think Jericho mentioned this also in his second book.

I feel like something big is going to come from all this for the Shield. When was the last time you seen new acts get booked like this from the out the gate? Also for all the ******** that Creative gets, they have handled the Shield perfect. My only complaint is outside of these matches they have no other direction. It time for them to go after some belts.
 
I see The Shield (Reigns/Rollins) walking out of ER with the tag team belts.

In the next couple of weeks they'll probably have Reigns & Rollins go over on Kane & D.Bry in either singles matches or tag matches to be #1 contenders. Then since Taker went over on SD, have Ambrose go over @ the PPV.
 
If its determined that John Cena is going to be out for a long period of time, they need to have him drop the title and have a tournament to decide the victor. When he comes back, he's going to be thrown in title picture anyway but at least this time he has a legit claim as he wasn't beaten.

WWE not developing its other talent rears its ugly head again as now CM Punk and possibly Cena will not be on the Extreme Rules card. Chickens coming home to roost.
 
 
Simple, Have Ziggler lose the World Heavyweight on Smackdown to Del Rio, Orton, Sheamus, etc etc. Have him win the WWE Title in the Raw Tourney. Buys time for Punk to heal up.
 
This is ending up like the HIAC scenario where Cena got injured right before his championship match with Punk, only this time he's holding the title.
This is the perfect opportunity to push RyBack and give him the belt.
And if they need to get the belt off of him before ER, give it to either Ryback or Henry and set up the rematch from WM @ the ER.

This could all be a work though, so who knows.

Set up a royal rumble for whoever wins vs Ryback for the title.
 
WWE.com reported that John Cena suffered an injury to his right Achilles tendon.  

The report was vague, not mentioning the extent of the injury, and using it to raise questions about whether the Cena vs. Ryback WWE title match at Extreme Rules was taking place.  It didn't mention when or how he was hurt, but did credit the injury to Ryback, so it could just be something to add heat to their upcoming program.

The report appeared to be written intentionally that way at http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2013-04-29/john-cena-injureed-on-wwe-european-tour-26111113

The Raw tour ended with a show last night in Lodz, Poland and the crew is on the way back for Raw in Columbus, OH, tomorrow night.

Cena & Kane & Daniel Bryan headlined the show against Ryback & Dolph Ziggler & Big E Langston, doing the same match they had done the last several nights of the tour.  The lone report we got on the show, which was not detailed, didn't make any reference to anything unusual about the match.

The only report back from Europe is that Cena had been working with what was believed to have been a bruised heel, so there is a legitimate injury.  As far as how he was injured and the severity, it's still unclear.
