i thought and still think the nicholas thing was terrible, and i hope it just leads to the vacating of the titles and a tournament. because im a mark for tournaments. second option is just angle saying the titles are returned to the bar because braun didnt pick a wwe rostered wrestler... which makes the bar look like shit, but it gives the kid a one off moment, and doesnt put him in the history books or anything. either way, as long as braun and some kid arent lugging around the belts for any length of time.
plus im secretly hoping we get braun vs brock tonight with braun winning the real strap. evidently brock and vince had a major altercation last night backstage after the match, leading people to think brock went off script and retained even though he wasnt supposed to. which i find that part hard to believe, because id think roman would just keep kicking out or something... but yea, its confirmed that brock threw the belt at vince. so something happened.
