When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train

They'd still book him to win in 20 on 1 matches. That was completely the wrong finish cos now you've just killed Nexus forward momentum. Clearly the "brains" at WWE expected everyone to say "oh such and such will turn on team WWE and Nexus will win" and despite that being a logical way to continue the feud and make Nexus more of a threat the choice was made to swerve those who expected just that finish and have Super Cena get the snot kicked out of him and still beat two guys :CRAZY:

ANY other result than that would have made more sense.

Bryan winning clean, Barrett winning clean, Jericho, Edge, Morrison (even Bret) turning on their own side.

How on earth does Cena winning again help the company?

From Hull and now trying to spread the RL word in Liverpool, and failing dismally.

The way that Cena won that match was absolute rubbish. He had his head planted onto the concrete floor and was out cold, yet he was then able to jump up and pin one guy and make the other submit within three minutes. Just what do the WWE see in Cena?

Decent enough PPV with the end to be honest the way it should be. Cena lucky to get the win, and Nexus with a lot of credit took out a chunk of a team with a massive number of title reigns between them. Bret couldn't be pinned so that was a good way out, and Edge/Jericho kept their characters intact. Bryan was put over after taking half Nexus out himself. So Cena can't sell, there's been many of the top names that never could.

Looking at the Raw tapings for the next 2 weeks they are doing a good job of still putting them over. Top marks to Jericho for all he's doing in this. I fall in & out of liking him but he's doing a great job. Plus Miz is breaking the glass ceiling at last.

The house shows are booking Nexus in 2's & 3's against the likes of Orton/Cena, plus Smackdown stars. I think the taking otu of the firt match will lead to them spreading on Smackdown.

On another note, Taker looked rough .. I said a few months ago that the match with Mysterio where he broke his cheek was the first time he's stunk the place up. I hope it was a one off as I'm a top mark for everything he's done.

His merchandise sells to the kids who nag their parents for it.

For the rest of us it's annoying as he's booked like Superman.

Wrestling-wise? Probably nil, like most of us. However, money-wise:

T-shirts
Caps
Wristbands
Belts
Posters

Etc etc

If people stopped buying his merch, they'd be no reason for them not to turn him heel.

Not seen it yet, but like the sound of this Bryan return. :BOW: :DANCE: :CLAP: :)

WWE love Cena's work ethic in the ring. I've seen him have great matches in main events despite his lack of talent. CENA CENA CENA!
