I'm glad that Cesaro and Sandow are on now, but they need to make more of an impact than they are. I'm getting tired of all these new talents being slow walked into shit. Guys like Cesaro, Sandow, Ohno, and Rollins have been doing this for years and already know how to work, they could handle the load.

I don't disagree, but remember that there's only so much time to give out on television every week. On SD alone, Cesaro and Sandow still have to compete with Ryback, Brodus Clay, Cody Rhodes, Christian and Sheamus, just to name a few. Since the current storylines focus more on those guys, it stands to reason they'll get more screen time. Bringing up Ohno and Rollins is cool, but where do you find time to fit them in?

Very good point, and I think a good place to start to fit them in is to give them some time on SD and some time on Raw. Raw wastes so much time on things that people could really care less about. Even putting them into tag or six mans could spotlight them a bit, plus it would interest fans to see these talents as a team given their history with one another. It is hard to really see where they could fit in considering WWE loves to do segments and segments and more segments. There has to be a way to balance it all out though, but I really don't have a definitive answer to solve that problem.

I'm not overly clear on the stipulations surrounding the main event tonight, is this it?

"If Cena loses, Big Johnny will fire him. If Big Show loses then Big Johnny will be fired if Mr. McMahon is present".

Yes, and Mr. McMahon will be at the show.

He's definitely there? Ok, that clears things up.

If this was TNA people would be all over that sort of booking.

Yeah, he's definitely there. He mentioned it at the end of the segment before Big Show used the wind to knock him out. I expect the Cena/Show match to be totally overbooked at this point.

Oh, I think they played up that McMahon might not make it to Sunday due to Show's phantom punch. Or they've forgotten about it at this point and just accepted he'll be there.

McMahon was said to be "doing well" with concussion-like symptoms. The WMD is such a great finisher, it doesn't even have to connect to do serious damage!

I like Viper's picks, look strikingly identical to Fuji's
