So with everyone else set, and the Sting return likely happening, does this mean Danielson vs Sting? Sheamus may just be a placeholder in that report.

Would vomit

This story makes me chuckle.

Yeah, but how is Brock vs. UT set in stone? They've jobbed out Brock and he's in the shit with Henry/Show. Nobody gives a fuck. UT has been off TV forever. Now UT is going to beat Brock and extend the streak before Brock leaves. Yeah, it's interesting. Kind of. But Bryan with either of those guys is 100x more intriguing. And useful.

Brock/UT is the one match that was locked for months & months. Big Show is being used to put over Brock to get him built up for Taker. "He took out Mark Henry! He took out The Big Show! He can't be stopped!"

But I agree with you. Like I said earlier in the thread, I think Bryan ending the streak would be brilliant. I think Bryan/Lesnar is a great style match for Bryan too. But I really think they thought they could talk HBK into coming back.

I still want Sting and Undertaker

I want anyone over the age of 40 to go the fuck away.

I always thought Bryan vs Taker would be done, and Bray was the start. When Bray first attacked Bryan, he kept saying "The devil made me do it." I thought that would be a great set up for Undertaker, who is the original cult leader from way back when, and seemed like he could be the best mastermind. Just a better way to get Takers WM match in, without having some stupid four way match for the right to fight him.

I read he dyed his hair for a TV pilot he's shooting

Bryan has easily had the most raucous crowd reactions and best matches going back a year.

If he's nothing but an opening act or midcard nothing with Sheamus...it's absolutely glass ceiling central.

HHH in a higher place than him is just whatthefuck in 2014.

Punk in a throwaway deal, Bryan too....the weird Cena/Wyatt deal but fuck it..BATISTA/ORTON OMFG!!!!!!!!!!

If that's the main event, L....O......L!

Members of TNA's production team began working on a Dixie Carter reality TV style demo reel in the last week or so. The idea is that the reel will be shopped around to networks for a potential Dixie Carter reality TV show.

This is something that Dixie has had the production team begin working on. She tried getting on The Real Housewives of Nashville reality show a few years back but it never worked out. No word yet on when this presentation will be done or when they will begin shopping it around.

Daniel Bryan just went from longshot to favorite to win the Rumble. Could mean nothing, but he isn't even announced for the match, and this is the time of day when the people inside who would know find out the booking and then place bets.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Not only did he go from longshot to favorite, he just broke the line with that one.

Someone must have some inside info.

A few recent Bryan interviews (he interviews like Arn fuckin Anderson he stays in kayfabe so much)...he had been saying they are trying to keep him out...I figure there will be some sort of way he sneaks in and wins the Rumble. If he's in it, he's going to win it.

Yeah, the odds jumped SO MUCH that this is highly suspicious. Unless some rich guy threw down some serious cash at this particular book as a flier or just saw the name at long odds and doesn't realize he's even in the match, there is no other explanation. Sure seems like the usual PPV day pattern to me, though. This is the time of day the odds always swing.
