WIll Brock be there next week?

[Crayo]

Since he appeared 4 times in April and he's only required to appear twice, do you think we'll see him at all in May?

 

[Stopspot]

I think we will see more of Heyman and if Brock appears in May it will be as a run in at OTL attacking someone but that would ruin the Brock V HHH build. Maybe he will be via satellite. I think he will stay away though to build up a epic return in time for Summerslam.

 

[Crayo]

My fear is what you've said. Not appearing until it's time for HHH vs Brock. Apparently, that isn't happening at Summerslam.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

It depends on how the contract was worded. If it stated he had to appear twice per month on average, or at least twice per month.

Personally I think WWE is Blue if they don't have him in a match on every PPV card for the year that they have him. It would be thrown together and rushed obviously, but I would have him involved with someone on the go home show to set up some sort of match for OTL.

 

[Crayo]

Not a fan of rushed feuds but with Brock, his "I don't care about WWE" gimmick it could work. He could just return on Monday, beat the crap out of X to make a statement, X wants to fight him at OTL, gets completely raped.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Exactly. Nobody likes rushed feuds, but it's better than Brock not being on the card. I have no expectations of this happening, though. WWE isn't smart enough to realize 'hey, we only have this guy for 1 year, or 12 PPVs, we should probably make sure he's on every PPV card!'

 

[Crayo]

To be honest OTL is going to suck so I'm hoping they chuck him on there in desperation.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Totally agreed. If nothing else he better at least make a surprise appearance.. A random beatdown or an appearance with Pauly.. something.

I haven't been less excited for any PPV, be it UFC, WWE, or TNA, in idk how long. Such a fucksucky card with fucksucky build

Punk/Bryan can't save this shit.

edit: one thing that COULD save it would be DB beating Punk, and then Brock coming out and beating the shit out of both of them, setting up a DB/Brock feud. That would be sexy

 

[Crayo]

That would be very sexy. Would be a good way to utilize the inevitable face turn. And if the rumours of HHH and Brock not being a Summerslam feud (IE, being after that) then in the mean time Brock vs DB would be sweet.

Normally on cards I thought were going to suck have pleasantly surprised me with a semi-decent show. But I thought the same for RAW this week and we all know how bad that was.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Yea, the 'bad card on paper turning out to be a great card' is basically a rule of thumb for MMA. I haven't noticed it as much with wrestling PPVs though.

As far as I recall, he has a set amount of dates per year, not per month.
So for example he may only appear once in May and once in June, then do 2/month etc.

And now with Paul Heyman, who knows.

And of course, they can always pay him more for extra appearances.
