The Fatal 4 Way main event on RAW was spectacular and had quite the finish. I'm very excited about seeing Reigns v Rollins at Survivor Series. Reigns has taken a lot of crap this year, but it's not his fault. He was just pushed too hard too soon. He's earned it this summer, though, putting on great matches and getting better on the mic (despite the super cool smarky reactions in Chicago). I expect a great battle at the PPV and suspect they'll headline WrestleMania 32 in some capacity.

It also looks like they could be setting up Kane and Undertaker teaming up for the final time against the Wyatt family at Survivor Series. If this is Undertaker's farewell tour, I guess it's going to be about him doing various Undertakery things "for the last time" (HIAC, teaming with Kane, etc.)

Reigns is made for hardcore matches. His normal matches are meh, but give him freedom to be aggressive and he puts on a hell of a show.

Listened to Cheap Heat this morning (which, if you don't already, you should listen regularly: http://espn.go.com/espnradio/podcast/archive?id=10116533).

They floated the idea of having a classic Survivor Series style match for the Wyatt family vs. Kane/Undertaker conflict. My question (and theirs) is who would join those two to take on the Wyatts? I don't see anyone on the current roster other than Kane who could team up with Taker at this point. I think just plugging in guys like Randy Orton or Dean Ambrose would be really cheap and/or silly and would kill the vibe. Perhaps the Ministry reunites?!

Whether it's a tag match or SS style, Bray Wyatt HAS to win. The dude needs to beat someone significant at a big event if he's going to be the new face of fear.

That is a good question.  Reigns is likely put because he will be likely feuding with Rollins.

Orton is legit injured and will be out for a while, so I am not sure about what his status is for SS

Dean Ambrose does make sense because of the deep history with the Wyatts, but I am hoping that they have more in store for him than being another second fiddle to someone else.  WWE keeps hinting they have something big in store for Ambrose.

They have been subtly teasing an Ambreigns split for a while, and I think the idea may have been to make Ambrose turn on Reigns and become a heel (mistake IMO, should be other way around), but with Orton hurt and Cena taking time off they probably need Ambrose to stay babyface a little while longer.

I am hoping he is involved in the World Title storyline is some fashion other than Reigns' valet.

Maybe Ryback?  Or Cesaro?  Daniel Bryan (there is a rumor he has been cleared to wrestle by a third doctor)?

I dont know.  Should be interesting to see it unfold, but if there is one thing i know about WWE it will end up being underwhelming and nonsensical.

So... Seth Rollins bkew out his knee yesterday or the day before at a house show.  Out 6-9 months.

Title vacated, will be decided in a tournament at Survivor Series.

Also Seth will likely miss WrestleMania which bums me out. 

On the bright side, will he get babyface treatment when he returns.  I have wanted him to turn baby for a while now because I think his in ring work is better suited as a babyface.

Also, who fills the void as top heel?  Maybe they turn Ambrose or Reigns heel sooner than anticipated.  Or Wyatt gets a run as top dog, which I would welcome.

Knowing WWE it will be Sheamus or someone dumb like that.

I am bummed but it does open uo creative possibilities which could be interesting over the months to come.

Just saw this, choked. See you guys in 6-9 months...

 

Not even kidding really either, like you said it'll be Sheamus or someone dumb that takes over his role. Maybe the WWE needed a Rollins injury to finally give Wyatt a push. Anyway like I said a large part of the reason I'd even watch these days was because of Rollins, this is a HUGE blow to the WWE. Reigns is simply just not a good enough wrestler to be headlining events and what not.
