Hey everybody! First and foremost, if anyone is still reading, I apologize for the lack of updates this year. I guess that's what happens when you get engaged and then all the free time you have you put to Xenoblade. (close to 35 hours in) Alright, back on point, Extreme Rules in this Sunday. Last year's Extreme Rules was one of the best PPVs of 2011. Can WWE replicate this?
Like any post Wrestlemania PPV, this PPV is FILLED with Wrestlemania rematches.
A pre-show title match? Wow! I like the idea, I just hate the fact that The Miz is about to lose to Santino Marella. Last year at Extreme Rules, Miz was in the main event and now, he's on the darn pre-show! That's insane! Anyway, I fully expect Santino to retain his title as I think the next person in line for a run with the US Title will be David Otunga.
Nikki Bella will beat Beth Phoenix and just like last year, Kharma will make an appearance.
Orton will defeat Kane to finally end their painfully boring feud. Hopefully, Orton will be in the title picture or in a nice mid card feud with either Bryan or Del Rio. Kane can do something else, I really don't care.
Cody Rhodes and Big Show is another uninteresting Smackdown feud. It really is. I love Cody Rhodes and I think he is the future of Smackdown hands down. A win here isn't in his best interest. If Rhodes loses, I hope he finally gets pushed into the World Title picture. Big Show retains. I don't know who Show would feud with over the title
Please God, let Daniel Bryan and Sheamus get some freaking time. I was really anticipating their Wrestlemania clash and when it ended up being 18 seconds, so I'm really hoping for a nice one-on-one match up. I remember reading that Sheamus was in line for a lengthly World Title run but I don't know man. That Daniel Bryan is really over with the crowd and with this whole AJ storyline, I could see her costing Sheamus the title just to get back with her man. That's the prediction I'm making. Daniel Bryan will regain his World Heavyweight Championship this Sunday.
Punk and Jericho are going to have the exact opposite type of match they had at Wrestlemania. It's going to be like what HBK and Jericho did with their unsanctioned match. I know Punk is in his hometown and all, but can he really keep this title reign going? It's been almost 6 months! I'm not complaining but will WWE continue to allow Punk to beat all of his challengers? Jericho is going to be leaving pretty soon, so maybe WWE will give him a 21 day reign just so he remembers the feeling of being a champion? Jericho isn't a stranger to short title reigns so who knows? Nonetheless, I think CM Punk will retain somehow and start feuding with either Lesnar or Tensai afterwards. Hell, I would still like to see Punk/Cena again. I would buy Over the Limit just for that.
Cena VS Lesnar. The main event without question. Both guys here need the victory. Cena has looked VERY weak lately, losing the biggest match of his career at Wrestlemania and losing to Lord Tensai in Tensai's 3rd match in WWE. He has lost his big time name. Lesnar, on the other hand, has to prove himself. That he hasn't lost it since leaving 8 years ago. What the WWE fans will be treated to is an all out war. Lesnar and Cena will probably get a lot of time, hopefully most of the 10 o'clock hour. The winner? Hard to decide. I don't think Lesnar would want to come back just to lose in his first match back, but WWE can't keep making their top guy look like a loser. Also add the fact, he's losing to people who don't have that much ring experience, yes I know Rock is a former 7 time WWE Champion, but he didn't wrestle a one on one match in years! Anyway, I really believe that Cena will overcome the odds, rise above the hate, and defeat Brock Lesnar. If he doesn't, Cena might never be the same and the Cena era as we know it may be over.
So, after this, I think it's time for each of these feuds to be done with. I'll give my next coming feuds in the next post.

Tensai debuts, Lesnar RETURNS!
Let me first say that Miami was absolutely ELECTRIC tonight. That crowd was much better than Chicago's MITB. Anyway, good Raw.
The Rock wants another WWE Title reign huh? Well, he better stop playing Hollywood Rock and become the People's Champion again. If he's the WWE Champion and still making blockbuster movies, I and I'm sure many other hardcore wrestling fans will have a problem with that. If WWE does decide to give Rock another reign, he better not dethrone my boy CM Punk. Beat Cena again or somebody else, just not Punk. He's on too good of a roll right now.
Lord Tensai debuted tonight. Wow, that was fast. He made short work of jobber Alex Riley. I hope the guy gets the push he deserves. Tensai/Sheamus, book it!
Speaking of Sheamus, Del Rio interrupted him and it looks like Del Rio is going to be next in line for a World Title match. That's good, Del Rio returns and they put him straight back into the title picture. Let's see where this goes. BTW, did you enjoy the Yes chants as much as I did tonight? They were crazy! I hope that the chant keeps going.
Let's get to the big story; Brock Lesnar has FINALLY returned to the WWE. After many rumors over the past years, WWE and Lesnar have finally reached a deal it seems and the 3 time WWE Champion has returned! He made a huge statement by giving his signature F5 to John Cena to end this week's Raw. What does this mean? Will we see Lesnar/Cena? Will we have to wait until Wrestlemania 29 to see it? Who knows? Maybe we'll have more answers next week.
What a way to start the LONG road to Wrestlemania 29. Let's see where this road takes us.

The Rock defeats John Cena
Well, Wrestlemania 28 is in the books. I liked the event, MUCH better than last year's and all the main events delivered. Let's break it down.
WOW, an 18 seconds World Title match? WHY? I was really looking forward to this match and then they go and do this? I'm surprised. I knew Sheamus was walking out as champ, but like that? AND with the D-Bry fan club? That's CRAZY! Well, hopefully Bryan and Sheamus actually get a real one on one match soon because they got screwed at the grandest stage of them all. Congrats to Sheamus.
Kane and Orton have a mediocre match, expected.
Big Show becomes a triple crown champion by defeating Cody Rhodes. Rhodes, it's time to move on up on Smackdown. Mediocre match.
The good divas win, yawn.
After the first hour, the show started to pick up. It started with the HIAC and man was it freaking BRUTAL! Did you see all those damn chair shots? Taker's back was a mess. They really went all out and was able to top their match from 27 AND 17. The Sweet Chin then Pedigree combination was amazing and I was on the edge of my seat for that one. It was pretty close, I gotta be honest. Once the dust finally settled, the result was the same, Undertaker wins and now is 20-0. 20 victories and NO LOSSES. When is he getting his Hall of Fame nod? Great and brutal end of a great era in the WWE.
Miz leads Team Johnny to victory and goes 3-0 at Wrestlemania! Next Undertaker anyone? Anyway, Johnny boy is taking over both shows. What's the future hold for the WWE now?
Punk and Jericho lived up to the hype. And I know that it was hard, but they did it. They had a fantastic one on one match for the richest prize in the business. They brought prestige back to the WWE Championship and did it with style. There were good sequences and some great counters. The GTS into the Walls was crazy. In the end though, Punk comes full circle and now has won at EACH of the WWE's big PPVs and defeated Chris Jericho. It was fantastic and without a question, lived up to the hype.
Mr. Movie Star didn't job for Mr. WWE because of his ego. No, in all seriousness, Cena and Rock had a really good main event. Great atmosphere and these two went all out. It was a tense battle. I knew Cena was kicking out of the People's Elbow but still, when Rock hit it, I was on the edge of my seat. Then Cena hits the 2nd AA and Rock kicks out! Cena then gets cocky, pays for it, and loses the biggest match in his career. What is next for John Cena? He lost to a part timer. And it's funny; The Rock is a lot like his fans. They show up for one match then will abandon the WWE lmao. Gotta love part time wrestling fans. Anyway, Rock becomes the best superstar of all time by now defeating Hogan, Austin, and Cena at Wrestlemania. That's a hell of a resume.
Overall, Wrestlemania was good but should have been amazing. I'm really upset Bryan and Sheamus didn't get their chance to shine and that Rhodes lost his title. Not to mention Cena let down the whole WWE. The pros were the main events matches and the fact Miz is now 3-0!
What will happen next? Is Lesnar really coming to WWE? Will Cena finally turn heel? What will Daniel Bryan chant to the ring now? Questions that need answers...
