"Taker" could be a clever cover word for thief...holy crap, I think we may finally have solved the case of the Nigga who stole Shisen's bike!

Who the fuck cares about Shane Douglas any more? Can he even wrestle? Does he still cut hour-long profanity-laced promos, slating WCW and WWE?

Less conspiracy and more reasonable (well...) thinking, though, is that they don't want him making big noise elsewhere. Kind of a CM Punk/OVW situation Paul E. talked about... they had him because of the buzz and didn't want that buzz elsewhere, but didn't know what to do with him. For example, imagine he went back to ROH. He could go there in pretty much the same limited date capacity that Brock has in WWE and the web traffic alone for ROH would be staggering. Excluding that, and even with all the turmoil in the North American landscape with Lucha Underground and TNA and Global Force, say DB went to NJPW. In this day and age, that would be HUGE, as Japan isn't necessarily this entity people Stateside don't know or care about. They already played the fired* card with him and let him go play elsewhere for awhile until the bad PR from Justin Roberts selling like a goddamn champion evaporated. But that wasl also before his overness hitfever pitch. If they tried that again, with the same guy, no less, bullshit would get called pretty fast. tl;dr I think they still "don't see value" in him even though he's already proven otherwise, but see enough value to know they can't let someone else have it. Sort of like a game company sitting on an IP they have no interest in using rather than letting an interested party buy the rights from them and do something with it. Corporate thinking: making no money is better than letting some one else make money. |

Seems a pretty simple case of being burned by what happened last year, resenting him for it, but not wanting any other company to gain anything from his popularity.
I wouldn't even call it a conspiracy |

Tommy Dreamer out for tonight's TLC ppv due to an illness.
Dreamer's supposed replacement or at least is the name going around the net at the moment: SPOILER: show EDIT: Ended up being a LOLDirtsheets prank from another website that usually was really reliable for stuff. Last edited by Emperor Smeat; 12-14-2015 at 04:45 PM. |

honestly this. Every once in a while WWE does pull out a huge surprise like this. An example of this I can think of is when John Cena returned at the 08? rumble.

Smackdown's getting a new commentator as part of the move next year to USA Network. WWE managed to get Showtime's MMA and NJPW on AXS announcer Mauro Ranallo for the job.

Seems to me they could have him back on TV without worrying about it affecting Roman pretty easily. Just have him challenge for a rematch for the IC title.
I'd bet Owens and Bryan could put on one hell of a great series of matches in a DB Intercontinental Championship chase type scenario. Start it at the Rumble and have it go till WM 32, where he wins the belt again and hopefully stays healthy this time. EDIT - Well, so much for that idea.

Pretty sure this is true. If nothing else I don't think there's a chance in hell of Bryan returning until after the Rumble is over. They can't unless they want the event to be sabotaged again.
