Am I the only person who loves the idea of teaming Wyatt with Bo Dallas? Since they aren't letting Wyatt win or at least be a low tier main eventer with his gimmick, why not make it fun? First, say that Wyatt was kidnapped as a child by Sister Abigail (or that Bo ran away/was kidnapped) to explain the huge difference in characters.

Imagine Wyatt goes on one of his great monologues about death and pride and fear, and then at the very end Bo Dallas pops up (RKO) out of nowhere smiling and says "AND YOU CAN OVER COME IT ALL IF YOU BOLIEVE" only to have Wyatt sigh heavily or facepalm/shake his head and the images the flash are the rocket ships or Bo smiling. which Bo smiling would be equally creepy.

They even have a T-shirt gimmick for a tag team waiting to happen "Bolieve in Fear"

It's funny how people forget that Wyatt wins more often than not. He beat Ambrose completely, Kane and Bryan too. He also beat Cena a number of times.

Newsflash: heels win most battles before losing the war. It's been the wrestling model my whole life.

Which of those was big or didn't happen first in order for someone to get even more over on the rematch? Bryan/Cena especially.

And Taker was their chance to truly pass the torch to him, but I'm not as mad at it as I am some others.

IMO, the biggest fallacy in the eyes of wrestling fans think you have to win to get over. Basically, that means Zayn didn't get over Monday night

If you can go in the ring, you'll get over. If you aren't "great" in the ring, but you have a lot of charisma and/or a good character that people can root for/against, you'll still get over.

Wyatt gets a long vignette or promo every week and wrestles almost weekly. His entrance is the most elite in the business right now. So he's not won a belt yet, he's clearly not over.

Orton is the current whipping boy to lose to Rollins regularly, but he's probably more over now than half of his title reigns.

I think there's more fallacy in viewing them how the company sees them as well. Putting anyone against Ryback at this stage is saying "You aren't a main eventer."

I don't think Wyatt, in his current form, ever needs a title honestly. His concept is chaos and fear and having a title only says that he agrees the the constraints and regulations of a system.

Now if he won a title and then immediately cast it into a river or something, sure. Or if he wanted to win it just to break the individual who currently had it, yes.

But, to me, to be "feared" or a "monster" means you have to beat some of the top dogs the company has, and not to win and then lose at the next paperview for the sequel.

I'm surprised I've not seen Simmons got fired before today. Seems like this would be a bigger deal than they're making it, but eh. He stopped being good about the time he got Grantland and thinking he was better than he was.

Not a good look for Dolph. Have I always missed the eyeliner or is that new too?

Also, I wouldn't be against Reigns and Ambrose turning on Orton, but it doesn't make much sense to me. Orton isn't really going to help them other than to destroy Rollins. Also, I don't think it'd be a good idea to team Reigns, Ambrose and Rollins with the Authority. Y'all thought Ambrose is buried now? Imagine him being a pawn within the Authority.
