Triple H attaching his wagon, so to speak, to Kevin Owens has got me thinking. Owens has the same exact background, non muscular build, and can be labeled an independent guy just like CM Punk and Daniel Bryan. Why is it that Hunter is putting building Owens in NXT, but never did the same for Bryan and Punk on the main roster, unless he was backed into a corner?

That is easy. HHH wasn’t running developmental then. He was a main roster performer.

Regarding Summerslams venue, why wouldn't WWE run Citi Field or Yankee Stadium?

Filling a stadium that size is hard. 30,000 is a great house, unless the building seats 50,000. Then it looks bad. Plus, the Yankees are home that date so it’s not available.

Did WWE just put the final nail in killing Rusev's momentum at tonight's RAW (9th March 15)?

Not at all. It takes a lot of nails to close a coffin. They have plenty more they can hammer in if they want to. Seriously, I didn’t like that either. Rusev passing out? Fine. Tapping out? UGH.

Do you think Tommy Dreamer is wasting his time hiring a firm to go after the people who streamed or downloaded HOH? Judging by his Facebook post it seemed like a knee-jerk reaction to some arrogant site owner. If you look at it rationally you can come to the conclusion that major movie studios, record labels, software developers etc. have all been trying for over a decade now to stop piracy and are still fighting and spending millions of dollars. History has shown that going after individuals has negative repercussions. I don't see what he's going to gain by going down this road. If this even goes to court he could be looking at filing hundreds of lawsuits in hundreds of districts since you can't just file one lawsuit against that many people. A judge has already decided that (a fact I'm sure the firm failed to mention). I hope he doesn't think he's going to recoup a million dollars or this till lead to all those people suddenly deciding to buy the PPV. Chances are they wouldn't buy it at all if they didn't have somewhere to stream it for free.  I'm old enough to remember Napster and know the damage that did to the music industry by going after them so aggressively instead of working with them. Itunes and Amazon MP3 or Spotify are essentially what Napster would have become if they had worked with them. People are still using the same failed strategies to go after pirates today.

He has to do whatever makes him feel good. It’s really easy to say what you are saying when you aren’t the one being robbed. I understand how he feels. When scumbags steal your work, it sucks. I have always said if you will only watch it by stealing it, don’t watch it at all. There is a price on his product. Pay it or don’t, but you can’t justify stealing it.

During the Rock/Cena feud where The Rock was absolutely murdering Cena in promos, they did an angle where Cena pointed out that Rock had notes written on his left wrist. Was this a work? If it were planned, I think this gives testimony to the Rock's greatness in that he had to "take a dive" because he was completely over matching Cena in promos.

It was a work, and a lame one. Rock never needed notes on his hand and he never will. He is a pro’s pro.
