Payback Am I the only one who feels this way?

[Stopspot]

Kane and Rollins laying down for each other,

How does that not make sense? Rollins is a pissy brat who is throwing his weight as the champion around to force Kane to lay down for him, and then Kane's patience wore thin and he used his much bigger mass to force Rollins down to show Rollins that just because he has the belt he cannot force people around.

having Paige in a fucking Christmas movie, which I think having her do that is just so against her character,

Because her character is her in real life? If you follow Paige on social media you see she is just as much of a "girl" as the rest of the divas. And that's kind of the idea of acting, you portray a character. John Cena and the Miz never served in the marines, but have both portrayed them on film, just like Orton has never worked as an EMT but played one.

Yeah, I get it. Turning Ambrose heel wouldn't make any sense. But then again, almost nothing in WWE has made sense (to me at least) as of late (Kane and Rollins laying down for each other, having Paige in a fucking Christmas movie, which I think having her do that is just so against her character, New Day derailing a great title reign, New Day being involved in the opening segment on Raw this past Monday, Triple H and Stephanie not being on TV very much when they should be)

In regards to Paige, have they actually announced what she's doing in the movie? Or are you willingly shitting on it 'just cause'? I wouldn't have put the 'Anti Diva' in Total Divas, but it worked well and she was a great addition to the show. Not to mention the fact that she's one of the top Divas, so why wouldn't WWE want to use her to shift a few DVDs?

And as for The New Day, that segment was great as far as I'm concerned. There always seems to be such a huge gap between the uppercard guys and the rest of the guys. It was a nice change to the usual Kane and Big Show Vs Reigns and Orton. The New Day as heels is working well for me.

I digress, but the anti diva gimmick was gone before Paige left NXT (she had stopped calling herself that long before her call up). She's just "alternative diva"

Didn't know Dean was added to it. Pretty cool, we'll get some Shield "nostalgia' spots and whatnot, it's nice considering this was the PPV they had their last match as a team in one year ago (is it? I think it is). And yes, he's there to be pinned.

Yeah, bro. Their last match as The Shield was indeed at Payback.

Speaking of Shield nostalgia, them doing a Triple powerbomb on Orton (but still not reuniting) would be a mark out moment for me.
But somehow I get this funny feeling Reigns, Orton and Ambrose might end up doing a triple powerbomb on Rollins.

Ambrose is obviously in the match because he's the best on the roster and he's going to win the title.

 

[Zany Clowny]

I'd be down for a shield return, for sure.

M8 it's obvious you've been gone a while tunga:

They're obviously building it up to make it feel like a big surprise moment.

With his PPV Win/loss record..... Vince would be stupid enough to try it.

I don't honestly want ambrose to win the title now, but he's probably kayfabe among the top 5 most beliavable contenders.

He lost lots of matches on PPV, but he don't usually lose clean to anyone not named John Cena or Bray Wyatt. Putting it into perspective: http://www.profightdb.com/wrestlers/dean-ambrose-3069.html?prom_id=2&res=250

He's actually a really well protected star. He also beat seth cleanly and is generally regarded as someone the champion is afraid of.

That he is. But his booking leaves a lot to be desired for me. He's a directionless geek right now that is put where needed because he is very over. That is a good position to have, but he lacks direction for his character. What's the endgame?

MITB? Who knows, maybe they don't know what the fuck to do and are just keeping him there in the limbo until they need to hit the panic button

 

[CM Punk]

damn.
My Shield comment was just a joke. lol
But thanks for the obvious response on why it won't happen.

 

[Snowman1]

Figure it's for the reasons Punk said, for people to see "Possible Shield Reunion Time, woo!!!!" as an easy sell for the free Payback, so that way they also watch NXT Unstoppable and get Network buys.

Seriously though, and especially with the main event bound to have another Authority smozz finish as with all Rollins matches, does it really matter?
