What a shame. As soon as Rollins started to gain some babyface momentum, he got injured AGAIN. Hopefully he makes it back for Wrestlemania.

Best storyline of 2016. Shame they'll be breaking up soon ffs.

What a shame. As soon as Rollins started to gain some babyface momentum, he got injured AGAIN. Hopefully he makes it back for Wrestlemania.

Watching it again it seems he got injured on the Coquina Clutch lol.

He spinning around trying to sell as much as possible, while Joe is trying to bring him down and Joe's weight collapses on his knee as he tries to also sell the danger of the move.

Also you can hear a pop as he comes down, with Joe clearly asking are you alright to which Seth responds "I hope so"  

So unlucky on both sides, I hope it's not too bad.

[Casciavit]

Yeh it was an unlucky incident all round. I hope this doesn't add heat on Joe especially since he ended Kidd's career (even though that wasn't exactly his fault either).

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Yeah nobody has ever been injured on the Muscle Buster apart from Tyson Kidd.

Just like this it was a freak accident, hopefully sense prevails with Joe and Rollins injury isn't bad.

Neither guy deserves that.

[Casciavit]

If it's a serious injury I wonder whether they'll reconsider Seth's status as a top guy. Instead of being the 1B to Roman's 1A, I can see him being Roman's 1C just like Ambrose ffs.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Do they consider him above Balor anyway? Hard to tell consider he was immediately injured though.

[S]

And this is why WWE will continue pushing Reigns as hard as they could. Seth can't be relied upon in the long run. Either he injures people or goes down himself.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Assuming Seth misses WM what do we think WWE are going to do with HHH and Joe?

Seems like they might have to change plans again.

[Casciavit]

Could see Joe-Balor. Hard to see what HHH ends up doing, though. I mean I highly doubt he doesn't put himself in the WM card this year lol.

[M99]

Triple H vs Shane pls so AJ can get a better match.

Sami Zayn has already been feuding with big guys like Strowman. Perhaps this could be his big break ? I was thinking an eventual Zayn-HHH mania match but I would think it's too little a time to do a proper build up.

Although it hardly excites me though lol. Not a Zayn fan in the slightest.

We also still don't know about Balor's condition either.

Either way, big blow for a big Mania matchup. HHH-Rollins feud was slowly gaining back some momentum until this happened.

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

I was thinking about this lol, also the storyline between Shane and HHH could potentially be pretty good imo.

Yes but first time on Smackdown!

Can't wait for Jericho's next book.

[M99]

Rollins was getting an evaluation on the knee on 2/1 in Birmingham and the early word was that he’d be out about eight weeks, meaning that Mania was possible but not definite. Obviously he’ll want to do it under any circumstances when it’s that close of a call but WWE these days, for legal reasons, is far more cautious about throwing talent back into the ring before they are ready than has been the case historically.

Cena sporting that hairstyle before it was cool

[M99]

Regarding Balor and talks of him being in the Rumble, he had an evaluation over the past week and was not cleared. I don’t know that he was ever considered for the Rumble in the first place as his target return was always said to be late February or more likely early March. But he expected to be on the WrestleMania show in some form.

[M99]

john cena wrestlemania spoilers from won:

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Speaking of Meltzer he gave Cena-Styles 4.75, which is the first time a WWE match got that since Lesnar-Rollins-Cena triple threat.

[M99]

Not counting NXT and CWC that is

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

Well yeah i didn't count that as they quite obviously don't have the limitations the main roster has.

I mean CWC had a *bleep* Burning Hammer ffs.

[Kaladin]

I don't see them rushing Rollins back from Mania, especially since its his knee injury again. I think the HHH storyline will be extended or something. Now when he comes back, we won't know if he's gonna be coming back for Joe or HHH, either way i'm excited for his inevitable return, if anything is to go by his return pop (). My theory is Joe fights someone who isn't occupied atm, maybe Rusev for Mania. Then post-mania, Rollins interferes and costs him a #1 contendor's match for the Universal champion, leading up to Summerslam.

Also, be thankful that Joe got drafted into the same show as Lesnar, holy *bleep* i can't wait for that feud

[Great Leader Sprucenuce]

The positives to it is it makes a ready made feud for Rollins when he returns and Joe and it made Joe seem like legit monster.

Even if it's by complete accident they will play that up and Joe in character is going to show zero remorse. ( i mean he already isn't on twitter lol.)

There's a lot of positives to Joe being on RAW matchup wise, i'm just wary of their ability to write and book people properly.

I'll look forward to his segments until they *bleep* it up though.
