10 Burning Questions For WWE Night Of Champions 2015
8. Will There Be More Wrestling And Less Drama?
The soap opera involving Rusev, Summer Rae, Lana and Dolph Ziggler has reached the TMZ nadir of its existence, signaling that its well past its shelf life. Fans might respond to the players, but the feud itself is just tired and played out at this point. And now that Lana is on the shelf for several months, now might be the time to finally jettison the storyline once and for all. Even if Lana was healthy, things have just become almost comical with the soap opera-level plotlines and bad acting going on. Ziggler is just two years removed from being World Heavyweight Champion and less than a year removed from pinning three men to (temporarily) oust the Authority from power. Rusev was undefeated for a full year before losing at WrestleMania six months ago, and Lana was his white hot (in multiple ways) manager. Now not so much. Rusev and Zigglers in-ring talents are being brushed aside, which would be OK if it was a compelling angle, but its just circling the drain. Will we actually get a good match and less of the TMZ drama? Please?
