I'm referring to the bad attitude of Sheamus in laying that ladder match out. Who reported that?

Oh sorry. Not really sure. It was the first I ever heard of that bad attitude story.

To be fair it was mostly dirt sheets that I saw running with the story, but most referenced The Wrestling Observer as the original source of the reports.

The Observer did not report him having a bad attitude in 2013. I doubt any actual other dirtsheet did. Newz site do not count.

Really good SD this week.

RVD vs Orton & Christian vs Del Rio were both great. Lesnar and Wyatt both cut very good promos.

Smackdown was awesome this week. Christian, RVD and Orton have been amazing lately.

I recall some sites reporting that Sheamus was more concerned with his spots in the match then working out the overall structure of it but no one with any real credibility said anything about it.

The addition of HHH as the guest referee makes me less excited for Cena/Bryan. I was pumped for that match and their promos were both excellent but his presence makes me less enthused. I really don't think I can survive this feud until WM30.

I assume we'll be getting Shield vs. Mark Henry/Big Show? Since they laid down a challenge for any two wrestlers to face them at SummerSlam, I imagine it'll be them based on Raw and not the Usos. Ambrose/RVD will be interesting, I really don't want The Shield to lose their titles yet.

Cena pulled a sweet heel move by bringing Make-A-Wish into it. He had just as good a promo. When he's in the position, Cena can sell a match like no one else.

Honestly, while Danielson is one of my favorite wrestlers, Cena somehow got me on his side.

That guy is on another level.

Did anyone notice that Botchamania moment on Raw with Natalya & AJ Lee?

Not sure who was at fault on that one, did the ref miss the tap out or did Natalya release the hold too early? Either way it was awkward.

I don't blame the ref at all, Natalya released the hold (lost her balance actually) before AJ began tapping so it would have been even more awkward to end the match there. Of course, the poor guy's gonna get all the blame.

On the other hand, it just showed you how terribly executed that sharpshooter was if AJ didn't even realize there was no hold anymore. Even the second time, Natalya almost released it AGAIN before she can tap out. If you can't do it properly, find another finish !!!

Yeah, Cena was immaculate in that promo. He had everyone cheering him by the end of it.

Meltzer has reported that the Shield have become curtain-jerkers, and had their match times chopped down significantly, due to injuring Taker and Orton, as well as heat with Big Show and Orton. Wyatts are being groomed to take the spot Shield had a few months ago.

That is just so typical WWE. They ditch 3 future main eventers to the curbs for 3 guys that only live on their gimmick, yet lack the talent to be anything but midcarders. In a few months when their gimmick is worn out, Wyatt will be somewhere in the midcard to upper midcard, and the other two will have to struggle to even be active roster memeber. But yeah, good idea ditching 3 future main eventers for that bunch of midcarders. One of the reasons I sometimes really hate the WWE.

Brodie Lee has a legitimate shot to become a top guy in 2-3 years. Great size and agility similar to Taker.

Also, being a dangerous worker with WWE's most prized meal tickets is a SIGNIFICANT reason to be depushed, regardless of match quality or how well the act connects with the crowd.

Never a big fan, but good for Darren Young for having the courage to come out as an active athlete.
