We haven't Sheamus since Battleground because he had a flu. If John Cena loses then his title reign is only 49 days and short reigns suck.
John Cena got his 15 reigns in just 12 years because most of his reigns have been short and were a game of going back and forth between him and Randy (or Edge).
Cena will very likely break Flair's record for most title reigns, but he will never be known as being able to actually keep the belt for longer than two months.

I meant short reigns suck in general not that Cena has many sort reigns.
I wonder who's going to win the Royal Rumble, last time it was the comeback of Batista, who left not even 6 months later, the Rumble winner is always the comeback kid, so it's going to be Daniel, so...
WWE2K15 screenshot?! Speaking of that, did you notice that Sting, Psyco Sid, and Honky-tonk Man all put down the date they revealed Sting as the pre-order bonus on their Twitter pages
This pretty much guarantees that he's winning the Rumble. Not only would it be a sure sign of a comeback, but it will also appear like justice* for last year's Rumble.
*I don't see why people were so angry about Bryan not winning/participating in the Rumble this year. He had a match earlier in the show and lost; no **** he wasn't going to show up.
My bigger problem has ALWAYS been with CM Punk losing, especially considering how he was eliminated by someone who wasn't in the match. It's a sour note on the PPV and it's really unfortunate that it was the last time we saw Punk in WWE.
It looks better than the previous games, but tbh the previous games have usually looked terrible. They were starting to pick up in quality with SvR 2010 only to suffer graphically from the new engine the following year.
Also even if they look good in screenshots, it doesn't guarantee they will move realistically, which would break the immersion. MLB the Show is the prime example of a sports game that not only has impressive looking character models, but realistic movements to maintain the feeling like they're real players.

Did you hear that the PS4 and XboxOne versions are getting a MyCareer mode like in NBA2K14, the story mode is aslo going to be about the greatest rivalries in WWE history, lastly, the special edition comes with a vinyl figure of Hollywood Hogan, an autograph from Hogan, a piece of ring mat from the night Hogan returned, 2 in-game versions of Sting, and 2 in-game versions of Hogan
Leaked game play.
Looks like there is a health bar for some reason and gameplay from the past few games. A also thought that "Hold R to escape" text interesting. That percentage might be the momentum bar.
I understand the desire to make Brock the champion and try and give some sort of justification to him beating Undertaker at Wrestlemania. I understand that people don't like John Cena. I understand that the mauling Cena got was symbolic of him being torn down as the face of the company in favor of somebody new. I understand all of that.
But Brock shouldn't have beaten Undertaker in the first place.
Cena has given far more time and loyalty to the company than Brock.
And there is nobody currently ready to take Cena's place as the new face.
Who were the biggest faces of the company in 2013? Cena, Punk, and Bryan. The first got squashed hard, the second has no intention of ever coming back, and the third likely won't be seen until January the earliest. Even if Cena were to establish his rematch clause for Night of Champions, it would make this victory seem like a waste while also throwing away the idea that Cena got demolished last night.
Who is Brock supposed to face now? Roman? People would complain it's too soon. Dean? He's in a feud that looks set to last for months. A returning Batista? He will still be seen as a heel unless his performance as Drax is so good that people forgive him on the spot. Bray Wyatt? Dude is a heel and he should stay that way. Undertaker? Give me a break.
I'm not happy with Brock as the champion. I'm sure he's a nice guy in person and a decent employee when he shows up (also he's the only guy in the roster who I think can/would legitimately kill me so I'm scared) but I wasn't happy at WM and I'm not happy now. Even then, it seems clear now that the idea behind this was to be a symbolic passing of the torch from Cena to the next big face of the company, whether that be Bryan or Reigns. And the point is for me to hate Brock and want him to lose so that way when one of those two take it from him it's all the better. And I guess I'm alright with that.
But neither of them are ready yet and all that's going to happen now is that WWE is going to be without the championships for a long time (there is no way in hell Brock is showing up weekly, let alone fighting). These coming months are going to be some of the most boring I've seen in the 6+ years of watching.
I would say that I'm not watching until Brock is set to lose, but that would mean I have to wait until February 23rd.
Other than that Summerslam was pretty good.

He's a part timer so he won't even appear on most shows.
Every title changed hands last night, Lesnar gets to show off the new belt tonight, he destroyed Cena, if Cena wants to use his shot next month, good luck because if Wrestlemania was any indication, Lesnar will not follow script and destroy Cena again, and Rollins won't cash in, not just because of Ambrose but because he doesn't want to waste his shot, remember when Lesnar was champ the first time, he only lost because Goldburg speared him during his match with Eddie, he's more vicious than ever now, so who can stop him? Who can topple the beast?
Three letters: HHH
He's beaten Lesnar before, and will use every member of The Authority to win the belt
^Problem is that Brock is an unofficial part of The Authority and was used as a last ditch effort to get the belt off Cena, someone who was clearly against them. Also HHH's days with the championship are over, lest the IWC scream and cry again about how HHH buries everybody.
Most likely people to take the belt off Brock would be Roman or Daniel. But that means we'll probably have to wait until WM31, meaning several months with a champion who barely shows up.
Note: I haven't seen Raw yet.

It's gonna be like the rock except he'll appear more. And by he I mean Paul Heyman.
