Vince McMahon, Triple H, Stephanie, Shane, the creative team, as well as for whoever else is in charge of storyline creation in WWE needs to make a Seth Rollins – Daniel Bryan feud come to fruition before one of them is out of his prime. This would be a massive moneymaker for WWE and would also draw a lot of interest in the product, similar to the potential AJ Styles – Finn Balor story mentioned in my Superstar Sagas post.
This time, it was fully expected for Rollins to win, given that he is the current Universal Champion and he and Bryan are currently on separate brands (and Bryan is a current SmackDown Tag Team Champion). Baron Corbin will be included in this section too because he did, come out and attack Rollins after the match to build for the go-home episode of Raw heading into Stomping Grounds. He is doing a beautiful job portraying a heel who is completely focused on the low vibrational frequency of his ego. It is absolutely genius for WWE to announce his resume every time he comes out to grace us with his presence.
Congratulations are in order for Ricochet, who will be getting his first championship opportunity against Samoa Joe basically four months after his debut on the main roster. It makes perfect sense to give him a major push because there is virtually nothing he cannot do in the ring. He will wind up having a great career due to these abilities despite the fact that he is a little smaller than the typical top-level superstar that Vince McMahon typically goes for, very similar to Finn Balor. Finn, however, resonates with audiences a little more whereas they are simply in awe of Ricochet.
Cesaro’s ridiculous strength was also on display on Raw, as he manhandled Braun Strowman not once but twice. I mean you would expect that from Bobby Lashley because he is a freak (no offense to Lars Sullivan), but Cesaro doesn’t even have the look of a guy who might possess that type of strength. Speaking of him, he should definitely have a match at Stomping Grounds.
Side Note: Thank you Paul Heyman for intelligently referencing the Los Angeles Lakers just two days after trading for AD (Anthony Davis). Also, my condolences go out to Elias after suffering the barrage of punishment to start off Monday Night Raw (sarcasm, hehe).
