NFT: Survivor Series (spoilers)

dpinzow : 11/24/2014 12:27 am
A certain WCW/TNA veteran who never appeared in a WWF/E ring before tonight made a big splash...won't say anything more

They actually did a good job tonight by going back to their roots with the 10 man tag, and they finally gave Ziggler his due
That was awesome

that Diva match got a crazy amount of time tho seems like half the show was women's wrestling.. No wonder it's free lol.

Throwback to the old Survivor Series having random guy win like Ziggler though I think a push may be in the making.

I think this seals Sting vs Triple H at WM 31.
A few of my thoughts

1. I feel like this sets up a potential Cena heel turn down the line. Only he can put them back in power......
2. Had to know someone was going to turn, big show is the easiest to bury.
3. The opening knockout was an awesome thing, very funny.
4. Shocked with all the push Ryback has received recently he went out first for the "good guys". Very surprising. Wondering if that was just a twist or if he is on his way back to who cares ville.
A lot of booking didn't make sense

But it was nice to see the Scorpion Death Drop in a WWE ring.

Mizdow!
Now we get the Royal Rumble Push  
dep026 : 11/24/2014 8:43 am : link
Which is always one of the more exciting things for me. A lot of interesting names they can push to be the Royal Rumble Winner.

- Ryback. Got a big push before Survivor Series, but threw a dud in the main event.
- Roman Reigns - a hot name, but injury and boringness has cooled him off. I can see him making a long run in the RR, but not win it.
- Dolph Ziggler - Star of Survivor Series, getting a huge push right now. However, I think they are going to save his final push for MITB.
- Damien Sandow - really over right now. Not sure if he is ready for the push, but a name to keep an eye on.
- Bad News Barrett - was starting to get a push before an injury.
- Cena and Orton. Well because they are Cena and Orton.
- Seth Rollins - but he has the briefcase so it shouldnt make happen.
- And my choice to win the royal rumble...... Daniel Bryan. Should be back. Most popular wrestler. This will quickly ascend him to the top.

A Reigns/Lesnar match has no flavor to me though in WM. Bryan vs. Lesnar - you can really sell that. Reigns is boring too me now.

Ryback is a poor man's Goldberg. No reason to give him a push

Reigns is actually the least talented part of the old shield; they should push either Ambrose or Rollins instead

Ziggler definitely deserves the push; lots of talent there. Hopefully the fact he was written in as the last survivor in Survivor Series elevates him

Sandow is a joke; the Miz is sorta legit though

Bad News Barrett should join the authority and heel it up obnoxiously

Cena and Orton are stale

Rollins and Ambrose needs to continue into a WM 31 match, so they need a long feud with a 5-star match to cap it and get that WM crowd chanting "this is awesome." I would set up their WM match as a briefcase match (I believe Rollins still has the briefcase) and stipulate that the winner gets the briefcase. Ambrose wins.

Daniel Bryan is great but who knows if he will ever be a consistent performer again with the injuries.

I would have Ziggler win the Rumble, lose to Brock at WM; then have Ambrose cash in the briefcase he wins from Rollins at WM and sneak attack Brock for the title

dunno, honestly (and it's not their fault given the age of the current fanbase) but considering how big of a deal Sting in the WWE would have been a few years ago the crowd reaction was pretty weak.
Monday Night Raw pops

There are videos from the crowd, sounded loud enough once he came out on stage and in ring. The WWE network shitty sound doesnt help
