Seeing Orton and Harper argue and Bray trying to separate them, I could actually see Bray kicking Harper out. At that point, WWE would have two choices.
Either Orton then immediately turns on Bray. Shocker! He outsmarted Wyatt and got Bray to dissolve his own family! Or the better option, Wyatt and Orton remain a dangerous team and end up in a feud with a face Harper and Rowan team. |

Harper as a babyface going against Bray and Orton? That has...intrigue. I'd be for it any other time of year, but I think we'll be seeing a lot of stuff happening at Mania and I worry if many things are going to get lost.

Yeah, the one problem is it'd probably require Alpha dropping the belts back to Bray and Orton soonish. The feud doesn't NEED the tag belts but realistically the SmackDown tag division isn't getting two WrestleMania matches.
Not even sure you could have them wrestle a non-title tag match at Elimination Chamber either. First off I don't know if Rowan will be ready to go by then but also I think one or both of Orton and Wyatt will be needed to pad out the Chamber match itself. |

Actually, that might not be true.
If the Chamber is for the WWE Title, you can have Cena, Styles, Ambrose, Miz, Corbin, and Ziggler. If you take Cena and Styles out and have them wrestle another title match...the Chamber would be for #1 contendership. So Undertaker would be in there and the last spot could go to someone like Kalisto just so he can do something batshit crazy off the cage. |

I'm not sure the WWE won't just blow through things until then. I could see Orton facing Harper at the Chamber to set up a WrestleMania match with Bray, who is in the Chamber trying to achieve his ultimate glory. If Cena wins the WWE Title at the Rumble, or doesn't, whatever, then a Chamber of Styles, Cena, Ziggler, Ambrose, Wyatt and Corbin makes enough sense. You could also put Kane in there. Or have a lucky dip guy like Apollo Crews or Kalisto. If Sami Zayn ends up traded, they might not just shove him with The Miz and let him go into the Chamber to create an illusion that Daniel Bryan believes he can "win the big one."
Let's just go with Corbin in the Chamber: * Cena (c) vs. Styles vs. Ambrose vs. Ziggler vs. Corbin vs. Wyatt for the WWE Title * The Undertaker makes an appearance * Randy Orton vs. Luke Harper * The Miz (c) vs. Sami Zayn for the IC Title * American Alpha (c) vs. The Fashion Police for the Tag Titles (or really any team) * Alexa Bliss (c) defends the Women's Title * Becky Lynch vs. Alexa Bliss' new minion I mean, it's not the most epic card ever, but it's "solid" in terms of filler PPV. |

I get this feeling that Ellsworth enters the Rumble when Lesnar and Goldberg are in the ring by themselves, and tries to dump both at once. It ends either with the two double eliminating him, ala Trips and Austin or with a humorous "who ragdolls Ellsworth better" contest.

Wrestle Kingdoms main event is better than anything WWE put on last year and I would dare to bet anything next year. Omega even had an amazing intro video.

Didn't get to watch live, probably won't be able to sit down and watch the whole thing until the weekend.
But based on what I've heard it's kinda sad to realize that wrestling in 2017 has probably already peaked on January 4th. |

Eh, it happened last year too. I mean, AJ Styles was in NJPW for a week or so last year, yet had his best match of the year there.

WWE must now top it by having Reigns/Taker go 50 minutes before Reigns gets his feel good moment of retiring The Undertaker clean. Genius.

The only appeal whatsoever I can find in Bring it to the Table is that it's a 30 minute exercise in corporate insecurity.

While it's true that no matter what the fans think nothing will change unless Vince says so, it's not really a counter argument re: the actual flaws or quality of the product. It's basically saying "you're wrong and you can't do anything about it because you have no real alternative other than to stop consuming the product. Go ahead stop watching. We dare you." |
