Stop making sense, guys. Sting can do whatever he pleases, k? The less sense it makes, the better. LMAO

While Sting vs Rollins is a fresh match, what's Sting done to earn his title shot?

He was jobbed out at WM. But, he decides to come back NOW, almost 6 months later, after clearly accepting his loss to HHH at WM and shaking his hand like it was some friendly bout? That's just cringe-worthy.

It would've been worse, but the first hour was too good.

He was far from 'jobbed out'. If he was jobbed out, Triple H would've been made to look far superior against Sting, when it was the opposite. He needed his cronies to help him, and had to bring in weapons. Plus, Sting isn't going to win the title, obviously. It's just an angle to freshen up the title scene, that I'm fine with even if it doesn't consult the Power Rankings on who should get the title match.

'Jobbed out' was used as a joke.

What I really meant is, the whole deal about Sting's WM loss is silly. To me, he looked like a jabroni after the match was over.

I mean, why the fuck do you shake your opponent's hand when he's defeated you with the help of his goons, plus hitting you with a foreign object?
Sting was at peace with it and now he's back and seems to be holding grudges against The Authority and Rollins? lol

Yeah, I was thinking about the 0-1 thing. By that logic some random jobber could also get squashed and challenge the champ, lol.

I mean, Heath Slater at least has a pinfall win over Rollins

Hey Prince Balor, here's my review:

Spot on.

So I was thinking about this Divas catastrophe and how to even bother fixing it over the next two weeks and realized the easiest way to do it...

-Next week, they announce that all three members of Paige's team get a triple-threat match to get the #1 contender's match for next week. WWE HAS TO condition their audience that their matches mean something. Has to. Even if they retroactively make that Summerslam match mean something at all, it's a start.
-All three members get video packages explaining their history. Just re-airing the ones on NXT for Becky, for example, with some extra added on for her run there would be fine on its own.

Then, on the next Raw, there's one of two things to do...
-Either take the handcuffs off of Charlotte or Becky, let them show what they can do, then the newcomer wins the belt RIGHT before the record is broken. After all this chatter about Nikki keeping the belt past AJ's record, someone winning the belt off of her could be a big moment. (Oh, booking in 2015) Plus this will create some semblance of doubt that "a title match on Raw!" means something other than "DQ"
-Go full Bobby Roode. Have Nikki and Charlotte lock up, do a few moves, and within 2 minutes Brie runs in for the DQ. Nikki jumps up and down and hugs the title and talks about how she's the GREATEST DIVAS CHAMPION OF ALL TIME as confetti rains down and the challengers just glare angrily at ringside.

Gotta do so much to fix so much at this point.
