Yea, I'm not saying he should be a face, but he hasn't been one long enough for a turn to have any meaning.

I wonder if the Royal Rumble will even had the Rumble match.

I predict that Cena and Trips will come back at the Rumble as surprise enters.

[mntwinsfan]

Cena is supposed to be fired. He did not let Barrett win the chapionship. So by Barrett's rule Cena to be fired.

[redsfan28]

Cena isn't going anywhere. Its a scripted firing

To be fair, it wouldn't be the first time they made a quick turn after turning a wrestler again.

When HHH came back from his quad tear he was a face for all of 5 months, IIRC, before he was revealed as the one who hired Rikishi to run over Stone Cold.

Even more recently, (and in the opposite direction) Edge went to Raw and turned heel only to go back to Smackdown a few months later and turn face again.

And Stone Cold was "fired" thousands of time as well.

He's just going to be running amok against the Nexus now and escorted out of the building a few times until Vince returns and rehires him.

I can't tell who's supposed to be the heel and who's supposed to be the face between Kane and Edge.

I mean, I know who they're trying to make the heel and face, but other than the forced clues (like Bearer adding that the fans don't deserve to have a father either) it's hard to tell.

[HollywoodLeo]

On a positive note, the Kofi Kingston/Jack Swagger match was good and Alberto Del Rio is still the best thing on Smackdown.

Why is Hornswaggle still in the WWE?

Smackdown's version of Santino? Or they use him to crawl up under the ring and take it apart for free?

With Paul Bearer insisting on reminding the fans that he also doesn't like them and Edge saying "Jacksonville Florida!" 20,000 times it's like they know they have to force us to remember who's supposed to be the heel and who's supposed to be the face.

At least Santino's actually funny every now and then and can carry a somewhat legit match.

Kane is so much better when he's the maniacal heel. Smackdown is trying to battle the grays and no one is winning. Whats the point in trying to "humanize" Kane? Only thing from out in LF is Edge is doing the Undertaker's bidding from "beyond"?

Agreed. Despite my complaints about some of the s/l writing around it I was really enjoying Kane's promos.

These current ones where he's being "humanized" and playing the victim because of Edge's shenanigans are just lame.

Looking at a glance I wanna say some things about King of the Ring.

I like theyre bringing it back. Could make for a nice niche show they could do once in a while to try and show some talent cross-"division".
Looking back at the past "winners" is like the Pee Wee Herman skit: Which one of these names is not like the others...

Harley Race, Steve Austin, Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Randy Savage, and Mabel....

Looking at the 8 guys:
From Raw:
Most to Gain: John Morrison. This could really be where he gets elevated. Plus Raw needs faces. Even if HHH is returning soon.
Least to Gain: Sheamus. You know HHH has to be back soon and Sheamus is just being used to get guys over until then.
Personal Feeling:Ezekial Jackson and Daniel Bryan just seem to be filler for me cause they really arent pushing either. Unless you call beating up Brooklyn Brawler getting a push.

From Smackdown:
Most to Gain: Drew McIntyre- It was close between Del Rio and McIntyre. But I think Del Rio is already at another level in terms of being a heel. I think that McIntyre needs another bump before he's "main eventer".
Least to Gain:No on. All 4 have legitimate reasons to win.
Personal Feeling: Cody Rhodes is there for the same reason Daniel Bryan is. Glorified Filler. Kofi the WWE seems intent on continueing to bounce him around between push and squash.

Prediction: I truely believe this is where Morrison is elevated. Could see them having a final of Morrison vs Sheamus/Del Rio (if they break the bracket up by shows).
