There was a creative plan in place for the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view that would have seen John Cena enter, win the match and earn a title shot at WrestleMania 28. As the storyline would have gone, Cena would have been forced to choose between a WWE Title match or a match against The Rock at WrestleMania 28. Obviously that didn't happen.

As we noted earlier this morning here on the website, WWE officials also had several scenarios planned out for Randy Orton to win in his hometown of St. Louis. That obviously didn't happen either.

If that Cena angle had happened I'd still be laughing right now.

 

[Postman Dave]

Meh.

I marked out when Cole came in so I don't mind.

I did too, and I don't even like the guy.

Same here. I've been pretty annoyed with him lately (him being a heel but loving John Cena and still hating Daniel Bryan, A HEEL!), but that was some great stuff.

 

[W-olf]

Its not that he's heel but the way he has tried to be heel downgrading all wrestlers but a select few and makes it harder for them to get over . In fact he has done it so much they were talking of stopping it cuz it was killing pushes and the ones he was trying to push Miz and Ziggler don't or at least didn't draw (Ziggler especially) against the likes of CM Punk it turned and cost viewers who were tuning out for matches with him .

I agree that Cole buries guys too much but I don't think in any way he's hurt the likes of Miz or Ziggler...

That Cena plan would've been so terrible.

 

[W-olf]

No , I meant hes only tried to help them (miz and Ziggler ) by bagging on everyone else and check the ratings its why Zack was depushed too the ratings were weak for main events and were losing viewers when Ziggler was on and incidently others he buried found the same thing so it didn't help at all for cole to do it .

 

[Castiel]

Ok, now I'm following you! Fuck Cole basically.

 

[W-olf]

Couldn't have said it better myself lol .

I really think Bryan needs to go and slap the piss into Cole then, Cole will mark for him out of fear. That's interesting TV.
