See I think this sucks really bad but it's the opposite with me. Now I'm extremely interested to see how they handle this one.

Find someone else to hold the title until mania when reigns wins it at the biggest stage of them all and austin holds up his hand to raucous boos. in texas.

shamo seems like a good fit I guess. A really dull one but have him screw over Dean in the finals and he'll get whatever heat back he lost doing whatever the hell he's been doing since mitb.

Have sheamus run through the tournament stomping smark favorites like Cesaro and Neville. Then in the finals its him and Dean and Dean beats him clean as a sheet to win his first title, big pop from the crowd. Sheamus then gets an assist from HHH or whoever and immediately cashes in on an unconscious Dean. Sets up Dean feuding with Authority at mania and Reigns chasing the belt after he wins at Royal Rumble again because who fuckin cares.

6-9 months seems like it's pushing it if his ACL, MCL, and meniscus are all torn. Isn't the usual timeline closer to a year?

This is WWE we're talking about, no doubt he's being put on a fast track of sorts because like 95% of the roster works injured (usually because the fast track recovery bullshit ends up keeping guys from recovering properly). Who knows, maybe he'll dip into Cena's "super stash" and end up coming back as a surprise Rumble entry.

Really, if they bury him in storyline on Raw, that means him coming back face for a surprise return, either on his own in a rumble like scenario, or a for real Shield reunion out of nowhere. Oh, and do you think they want the title on Roman if him winning it isn't him culminating his revenge for the Shield break-up/Mania cash-in? Feels weird to not have that hook to his win, but it feels even weirder not to put the belt on him now.

I legitimately think turning Roman would now be a mistake. They waited a few months too long, and it'd kill the heat he's gotten over the past few weeks.

Hahaha there is literally no way they are turning Roman. They want him to be the next Cena. A Dean turn has been hinted at a bit and wouldn't surprise me. Hinted despite him outselling BIG FAT loving SAME lovely MATCH OVER AND OVER AGAIN JOHN a time or three.

It's hard not to call him a bad wrestler when you don't like his character or booking even though neither of those things have any bearing on his in-ring work, which this year has been really really great and better than ever

He explained this to you, I mean how hard is this

Which precisely explains why he is being pushed down our throats. Even when he isn't in the main event, even when he is having good competitive matches, it still "feels" like he is always there, always winning, and always rapadoo-fruity pebbles-poopy-ing.

And the fact that it feels that way despite the good matches, and the position lower on the card is why I choose to boo the ever living gently caress out of Jhon Cena the character.
