PW Update

Just because I don't spend as much time sitting & analyzing the athletes in the WWE (and other professional wrestling organizations) doesn't mean I am not at least peripherally aware of what is happening. On 10/25, there was the 2015 edition of the WWE's "Hell in a Cell" PPV. I didn't watch it.

I did watch enough bits and pieces of Monday Night Raw to learn that Roman Reigns is the next challenger to current champion Seth Rollins. Yaaawwwnnn. I've seen that match before; I've seen this feud before and all I can wish for is some twist to not make it so booorrriinnngggg because I would much rather see wrestlers that are new to each other - perhaps Kevin Owens feuding with Sheamus & Bad News Barrett to the extent that Owens needs to find a fellow wrestler that he can depend upon to make the save. Not a tag team partner - that's been done before. This would be as loose of an alliance as possible. Perhaps Cesaro, who also has a history with Sheamus & BNB, keeps on getting double teamed. Owens comes out, not to make the save, but to get a piece of the two of them (perhaps he received a beatdown earlier in the night and was "supposedly" taken to the hospital) so he comes running out to get revenge. Cesaro and him team up for a two-person-flipping-a-third wrestler over move - whatever its technical name is - and Cesaro looks surprised that they worked well together. Cesaro can still be aligned with a known Owens enemy - Neville - but perhaps Neville is also taken out and Owens actually breaks his typical "not fighting" routine and gets involved. It doesn't have to be a face turn for Owens; perhaps he becomes a tweener like Stone Cold Steve Austin.

I digress.

Bleacher Report doesn't see Owens being used in the way I described above. This article proposes a Dean Ambrose v. Owens feud.

Meanwhile, another article speculates on who is going to be aligned with Undertaker / Kane at the next PPV - Survivor Series - that is in November.

One final interesting professional wrestling note is that Hulk Hogan's WCW contract from 1998 has been posted to the Internet. It's absolutely mind-boggling!
