Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. I like the way that you mapped out MITB and your MITB winners leave you with some good options going forward. Huge roster to work with so I am intrigued at how you utilise them all going forward.

Good luck

WWE News​

Word was going around that Daniel Bryan was going to win the Raw Money In The Bank but instead Randy Orton won instead. This came after CM Punk was pushed off the ladder by enemy Brock Lesnar. This was a move to depthen the Punk and Lesnar fued more. If everything goes to plan, WWE plan to have CM Punk vs Brock Lesnar at Summerslam!

It was reported that the WWE Creative Team had a hard decision to make between Bryan and Orton. Orton is planned to stay upper-card getting more time like he used to get when he was in the Legacy vs McMahon angle. WWE have plans for Daniel Bryan also, they want him to stay face and build a solid feud with one of the top stars in the company. Most recently COO Triple H praised Daniel Bryan's style of wrestling and his commitment to wrestling also.

With the mid-card tier, Fandango is returning after an injury spell. It was only two weeks after Payback that Fandango was cleared to wrestle but WWE thought that this wasn't the time to bring Fandango back, especially after the return of Christian. WWE plan to give more attention to mid-card titles and give them the importance they had during The Attitude Era. Along with the mid-card topic, Rey Mysterio made a return to wrestling in the Smackdown Money In The Bank Ladder match, after a injury from March. WWE were impressed by the show Rey put on in the Money In The Bank match and especially due to his age. WWE plan to put Rey in the mid-card picture, revolving him around the US Title (which he has never held before). WWE also plan to take a former upper-card superstar and push him down to the mid-card picture.

The final note being The Divas Championship, WWE plan to also give a little more attention to The Divas Championship after giving AJ Lee the title at Payback. WWE have recently called up Diva Paige from NXT. Paige has showed WWE, she's capable for wrestling and much more. It's reported that Paige may enter in a storyline with another Diva or go straight into the title picture.

The Raw preview should be up in a couple of days and then followed by that the first Raw will be up!

 

[Echo]

Looks good, looking forward to reading the first Raw.

''Cult Of Personality'' blasts out as CM Punk makes his way down the ramp with an angry face.


CM Punk stands in the ring with an angry expression on his face. He waits for the crowd to stop chanting ''Punk Was Screwed!''. He says that last night at Money In The Bank he was about to win the Raw Money In The Bank briefcase but Lesnar stopped him! He receives more cheers from the crowd before carrying on, he says that he knows that Lesnar has had some heat with him since the day he became a Paul Heyman guy! He then says that Lesnar had an issue with Punk stealing the limelight and being the champion for the record 434 days! The crowd chant ''Best In The World'' before Punk starts his speech again, he says that due to the fact that he was The Best In The World and Lesnar got his ass whopped by Cena at Extreme Rules, Lesnar thought that I was a threat to his glory at WWE! After that Lesnar beat Hunter, but after that Lesnar got his ass kicked by Hunter at Wrestlemania! So at this point Lesnar was pretty damn angry but before he could get me I left for a break! Punk then goes on to say that things between him and Lesnar were fine but after he left Heyman! At this point ''Heyman Done It'' is chanted around the arena! Punk says he agrees every single word the crowd says and he knew that this was Heyman's revenge! But Punk says he doesn't care about Heyman and Lesnar! All he cares about is regaining the WWE Championship! He says that he wants one shot at Orton's briefcase, but before he can go on.

Excuse Me is shouted out! The camera turns to the ramp where Raw Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero and assistant Brad Maddox stand. Vickie says that as much as Punk and the crowd would like she can't give Punk a chance to get Orton's briefcase as he actually won it fair and square! Punk replies saying that getting pushed off a ladder and landing through an announcers table when you're about to win really isn't fair! Guerrero says that as under the Money In The Bank rules their is no such thing as DQ or interference so anything can happen, but Vickie says she can do one thing for Punk! She says that she can book him tonight in a match against Randy Orton! Agreed says Punk! Which causes a huge pop from the crowd.

''Cult Of Personality'' hits agains as Punk jumps out of the ring and begins exiting.

Heyman says that he's alright with that and then offers to be ringside for Punk's match against Orton tonight but Punk kindly declines Heyman and says I don't need your help before leaving.

[Troy]

Good read. I like the storylines that you have set up going forward. Good to see you putting Fandango against a guy like Christian. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the tag team division going forward, big fan of tag team wrestling. I wonder how long Ambrose will remain US champion and MITB briefcase holder, will you keep both on him for a long time or will we see Ziggler possibly take the US title from him? Punk vs. Lesnar feud started off well in your BTB. Nice way to ease into it the first RAW after Lesnar screwed him on PPV.

+ Thanks to Troy for the feedback

 

[Nate]

-Good solid open, having the main men kick off the show with a classic confrontation between both competitors. Good hype for the upcoming main event match. Always great to see Del Rio being a douchey heel, really suits him more than his babyface bullcrap.

-The opening contest was alright, I'm personally not a big fan of singles matches involving team members, but since it did involve I'll let it slide. Good to see that the champion won the match too.

-Excellent Pre-match promo involving Heyman and Axel. Good to see that you're utilizing Heyman properly. Loving the fact how you're trying to bring up the status of the IC championship, and bringing down those who devalued the title.

-Nice little stipulation between Cara and Axel. Oh man and Axel STILL won the match! Brilliant my friend, just brilliant! Wonder how the IC title scene will play out now.

-Can't say that I'm a fan of the stipulation of the tag team match involving Rhode Scholars and Tons of Funk. Why not just make it a general #1 Contenders match? Good match though and the right team won. Wonder how that's going to play out next. Oooh and a victory celebration for the Rhode Scholars! Nice...

-I'm not gonna lie, I had to look up who Paige was, but that in ring segment looked good. Hey you're making the divas division look interesting so I'll give you a thumbs up for that.

-I really liked the Rey Mysterio vs Ambrose match. The DQ finish was interesting and having Ambrose's dramatic escape was pure gold.

-Huh and here comes the main event... in a non title match. Interesting. Anyways good match but having Ziggler win clean over Del Rio was kinda questionable. But still hopefully this leads to a rematch for the title at some point.


Anyways overall a good show for Smackdown! Can't wait until RAW to see the followup... mostly between Punk and Lesnar. :clap2:

 

[Troy]

Another good show.

Again I like how you use quite a few tag teams. Rollins beating Jimmy pretty much closes out their feud now that Rhodes Scholars are the number one contenders. Good choice for challengers for the title, hopefully they will be more successful in your BTB than they were as a team in WWE.

I like the storyline that you have going with Rey and Sin Cara, with Rey as his mentor and tag team partner. Be interested to see where that leads, how long they stay as a team, how long before they feud and how long before Sin Cara overtakes Rey.

Nice to see you bringing Paige up to the main roster. She is the most talented diva in NXT and she should excel in the Divas division.

I was also surprised by Ziggler getting the clean win over the champion. I assume this will lead to a title shot for Ziggler at the next PPV.

Thanks for the feedback, I highly appreciate it, with Rollins and Uso's match it was like Troy said to just end the feud between the two teams. Especially after Team Rhodes Scholars being new number one contenders.

With the stipulation for the match, I didn't really see why I should also give Tons of Funk a chance to the belts also as I don't really see them as contenders so that's why I just gave Rhodes Scholars the chance.

The clean win was a way to put Ziggler as a stronger face, it shows that Ziggler ain't the old jobber anymore.

Another good show.
