I'm pretty sure that ended just as they wanted it and Rollins wasn't hurt.

When you are ten feet from the ring with officials checking on you and the cameras do everything they can to not show you...you're probably injured and things aren't going as planned.

They'd never let Ambrose face Lesnar. He might just decide to pull out the shotgun.

I'm sure Ambrose could figure out a way out of getting a shotgun pulled on him.





BTW, Plan C is now in effect.

Plan C is Cena Forever, especially when a rogue headbutt mysteriously cripples Roman Reigns within the next month.

Rey Mysterio exploited a loophole in Little People's Court to hide under the ring and savagely attack anybody who passed by to sate his bloodlust.

Why would the cameras show him? The last part of the match was designed to have the four people in the main event all fight each other. Rollins doesn't fit in that narrative.

Maybe they don't let Reigns do any moves because they know he will inevitably be injured in a devastating fashion.

If Rollins is injured I don't see Ambrose getting a match with anyone else, The Authority are all out of heels to throw at him and adding him into a 20 man battle royal isn't going to do anything for him at all, especially as he's above midcard titles. Maybe he could run in on the main event to help out his buddy Roman?

When it's a work, they show you injured. When it's a shoot, they don't show you. He's hurt.

When there were refs darting over and you didn't have Cole yelling about it or making any mention of Rollins then it probably wasn't planned.

There was literally no reason to show him after he was taken out at that point because that spot was designed to keep him out of the rest of the match while the four people who are in the main event finished the show.

Yeah, if they don't show you there being all "Ow, ow, get off me doc!" or whatever, then it's definitely shoot.

And yet he's been a looming specter because of the case. They had every reason to show him. Though I hope you're right.

Right after it happened King said something along the lines of "Oh, looks like Rollins just hurt is knee," so maybe it was planned. But Naitch throwing up the X and the cameras never panning to him makes me think it's legit. Fingers crossed.

They finished with the case the last two weeks. They wanted to finish this show with Orton and Kane fighting and Cena and Reigns not all buddy buddy, and Reigns was the guy they wanted to end the show on.

Like, everyone is ignoring basic wrestling storytelling.

Here's Lil Naitch throwing the X if you were curious. It was quick because he needed to turn back to the match at hand. https://twitter.com/dajosc11/status/488882956606259200/photo/1

The X has been used as a work so many times that it's pointless to use that as evidence as a real injury or not. Same thing with trainers immediately going to a guy.

Counterpoint: camera would be focused on that for drama reasons for at least a second.
