That was probably the best part of the show. It was hilarious.

- Keep making interesting characters like the funkasaurus, Santino and Brodus could be a great tag team
- Bringing in huge names, at the RIGHT time. RAW was a great time to bring back Brock, and if ROCK goes for the WWE title, there is going to be a big interest.

I am salivating at Rock and Punk potentially at summerslam. THAT could be great
Imagine a double main event at SummerSlam of The Rock and CM Punk for the WWE Championship and Brock Lesnar vs John Cena?

Although, if The Rock is actually going to win the WWE Championship, I think it happens at the Royal Rumble if anything. I can't see him holding the WWE Championship from SummerSlam - WrestleMania with his schedule, unless he actually made a full time commitment and put the movies on hiatus, which won't happen.

Also..

Brock Lesnar might've signed the most lucrative contract in the history of the WWE.

For 30-35 guaranteed appearances in the 1 year he signed, he's guaranteed $5,000,000.

Wow. That's pretty good. Do you know how much the WWE paid The Rock for his involvement over the past year?

I heard WWE paid Mike Tyson $1M for his stint with HBK and SCSA.

They threw around the $20M number for Floyd, but I don't think the payout was ever close to that.

Anyone know how much Brock made while with the UFC since he debuted?

Brock Lesnar's return on Monday gained more than 1,000,000 viewers.

has anyone seen a youtube of the fans going "YES YES YES" At the heat game?
I don't see DBD being a heel much longer either.

Yeah so if I'm an everyday full time talent that's been around for a few years...I'd be livid with hearing that.

I guess that explains the salary though

Regarding Dean Ambrose, his feud with William Regal provided this promo. Excellent stuff from Regal.



I can't wait to see guys like Ambrose, Damien Sandow, Antonio Cesaro, Seth Rollins, and Chris Hero all up on the big roster. It'll be amazing to watch.

My hope is that Ambrose ends up on Smackdown where he'll have more time to shine.

Regal is awesome. Always has been. If WWE wants to put wrestlers in movies, he needs to be a super villian in one.

Let's see his in-ring work .

EDIT: In my opinion, he is just remarkable both on the mic and in the ring.

Strictly from the fights he made a little over $3,000,000. He has endorsments like Fussion Amunition where he made a truck load of money on top.

He's the total package. He's like Raven/Piper/Pillman mix on the mic and his in-ring style is unique. He's really good.

I guarantee he's going to be the top heel in the WWE VERY quickly after he arrives. People will pay A LOT of money to see him get his ass kicked. I can sense him getting a big rub as soon as SummerSlam by defeating Mick Foley in a Hardcore match after that little WrestleMania 28 weekend encounter.

To me... Wrestlemania 29 is shaping up to be like this:

Main Event:
The Rock (c) vs. Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena

Cena finally gets his moment to go over against two of the biggest stars in the world. That would be very good.

CM Punk vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin

I think we will see the return of MITB, too.

Right now, I'm thinking:

SummerSlam: Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena
Survivor Series: CM Punk (c) vs. Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship
Royal Rumble: CM Punk (c) vs. Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena for the WWE Championship
The Rock wins the Royal Rumble
Elimination Chamber: CM Punk (c) vs. The Rock for the WWE Championship
WrestleMania 29: The Rock (c) vs. Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship
CM Punk vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
The Undertaker vs. John Cena
Money in the Bank

All I know is if I can dig up the cash, I'll be going to WrestleMania for sure and buying a ticket package when they're available. There's no way I'm missing WrestleMania 29.



On twitter, someone asked Dean Ambrose about a WrestleMania 29 match with Mick Foley and Dean Ambrose replied:

Quote:
Nah, In a perfect world id rather see his house repoed and his family starved than see Mick make another dime off wrestling
I personally think we see it at SummerSlam if anything and Dean Ambrose wins Money in the Bank at WrestleMania if it is - even though he wouldn't need Money in the Bank to be catapulted into winning the WWE Championship.
