The Randy v Christian matches have been awesome tbh. Ortons the best in the business atm.
Sin Cara has been suspended for a wellness policy violation hence the brutal spot I guess.
Also, saw RAW, very interesting end. I guess something like this has been coming for a while now. Still no clearer as to what might happen with Punk though!
I suspect Rey was booed due to his feud with CM Punk, even though that was a while ago now.Quote:

Hes having a shockerQuote:
MASKED WWE wrestler Sin Cara has been suspended for violating the company's Wellness Policy.
The Mexican import, who became famous in his own country under the name Mistico, will be missing for a month due to an infraction.
A WWE.com statement read: "In accordance with its Talent Wellness Program, WWE has suspended Luis Ignascio Urive Alvirde (Sin Cara) for 30 days for his first violation of the company's policy."
WWE gave no more details about the suspension, but PWInsider.com and other wrestling websites are reporting that Sin Cara failed a steroid test a month ago.
The star made his WWE debut in March to much fanfare, but has underwhelmed in his performances so far.
He was part of the Smackdown Money in the Bank match at Sunday's PPV, and was powerbombed through a ladder by Sheamus, presumably writing him off TV until his suspension ends.

I assume the anonymous GM angle is dead thenQuote:
TRIPLE H has taken over from Vince McMahon as on-screen figurehead of Raw - amid rumours that the same thing is about to happen in real life.
The Game appeared at the end of Raw for the first time since the night after Wrestlemania to deliver the message to his father-in-law that, in the storyline, the board of directors had declared a 'vote of no confidence' in the Chairman and that Hunter would take over immediately.
This announcement came at the end of a Raw which struggled to live up to the previous night's standout Money in the Bank PPV.
They were never going to be able to deliver such an amazing night of action again, but it still felt like some of the momentum from the previous evening did not carry across.
Vince McMahon started the show by announcing a one-night, eight-man tournament to determine a new WWE Champion.
The fact that he was about to create a new champ, just 24 hours after CM Punk won the belt and disappeared, seemed to undercut his major fears about what would happen if Punk took the belt elsewhere. If he can make a new champion just like that, why was he afraid of the consequences of Punk's victory?
Speaking of Punk, he did not appear on Raw and was sparingly mentioned, with McMahon stating that his name would not be uttered. This was to build up the realism that his departure is legitimate, although John Cena would mention Punk towards the end of the show.
The tournament progressed to leave Rey Mysterio and The Miz in the final but, with little time left on the show, Vince interrupted and aid the final was postponed. He had declared that John Cena was to face serious consequences for not beating Punk and wanted to deliver on that.
Cena cut a fierce promo on the mic, with WWE again sailing as close to the wind in terms of worked shoot comments as they ever have done.
After briefly addressing 'Kevin' (Dunn, WWE producer) Cena tore into Vince. He then turned to the hard camera and said to Punk: "If you are out there watching, it was a hell of a match last night, son. Thank you so much."
He then made the first ever allusion to TNA on a WWE show. Addressing the possibility of McMahon firing him, Cena said: "I love the WWE and I truly believe I belong here. And man, I hate saying this, but if you're about to tell me that I'm not welcome here, if you're about to tell me that I have no other option. ....I love this. This is what I do.
"But if you make me walk tonight, then I will walk on someone else's television show and keep doing this, brother!"
As Vince was about to fire Cena, Triple H emerged in a suit, and delivered his speech to Vince. It was a little corny at times - Hunter saying "I love you, Pop" made the crowd groan - but Vince did a great job of crying in the moment, and this is a most intriguing storyline twist.
This was obviously a scripted angle, but rumours are gathering that Vince may well take a step back in the near future.
Former WWE star Sean 'X-Pac' Waltman tweeted on Sunday night, referring to Triple H, saying: "The text he sent me today makes much more sense now. That was the real deal, that last five or however many minutes".
He later said: "To clarify my tweet last night. Raw last night was on a symbolic level."
Jason Powell of ProWrestling.net reported that he spoke to Waltman, who told him the comments were "more a case of the Hunter and Vince segment playing on the real life situation of Triple H shadowing Vince for the last year and being groomed to take over the position someday."
For now, the change is on the TV show. The hope is that WWE continues to provide the quality of the last months or so, with focus on wrestlers and titles, and not simply yet another wrestling power struggle.

It seems that the de facto holder of the WWE Championship and former WWE Superstar CM Punk is not done poking a stick at his previous place of business
Thursday morning, during Mattel's WWE panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2011, the ex-WWE Superstar reemerged with the WWE Title still in his possession, strolling into a conference room where Triple H, Hall of Famer Bret “Hit Man” Hart and Rey Mysterio were answering questions.
Punk promptly began to ridicule Triple H – the very Superstar and WWE executive who recently relieved Mr. McMahon of his leadership duties as WWE Chairman on Monday Night Raw.
Punk's mocking led to an intense verbal confrontation between Punk and Triple H. When Punk asked the subject of his scorn, “how’s life in Fantasy Land?” Triple H responded, “how’s the unemployment line?”
Addressing Rey Mysterio about WWE’s match this Monday night on Raw to crowd a new WWE Champion, Punk invited The Master of the 619 to Chicago anytime that he wants a title opportunity.
Triple H tried to maintain his professional decorum. After pointing out that “a champion performs,” he informed Punk that “it is a new regime” in WWE, inviting Punk to “give [him] a call and maybe [they] could work something out.”
In the end, the self-exiled Punk left as swiftly as he emerged, brandishing the WWE Championship as he went.
The new head of WWE continued to address the situation after the disruption was over, commenting that he was astounded that the WWE Universe continued to cheer for Punk while Punk was refusing to perform for them. He pointed out that that was what true WWE Champions had been doing “day in and day out” throughout the history of WWE.
This public interruption came on the heels of the monumental events of Sunday, July 17 at Money in the Bank pay-per-view. There, The Second City Saint stunned the WWE Universe by defeating John Cena, exiting through the crowd and leaving the company without its most coveted title.
Late Friday night, WWE.com was granted permission by WWE executives to show footage of Punk's interruption, caught by WWE cameras during the Comic-Con Q & A.
Punk :bow:
