One reason why EY won world title

If you watched Impact last night you saw that the company is moving ahead by trying to do all that they can to leave TNA Champion Eric Young's goofy character from the past, in the past. They company hopes to turn around the perception that people remember from when Young was a comedy character and hope that they can repackage him as a credible champion on the eyes of the fans.

According to a few sources, part of the reason that they put the belt on Young is to get some cross-promotion with his Animal Planet show, Off The Hook: Extreme Catches, which has its season three debut on Sunday June 16. The company wants to spend the next two months getting Young over as champion to coincide with the return of his Animal Planet show.

Love Lesnar, but its a joke they are handing him everything, when he does nothing but fight once every 6 or 12 months. If they give him the main event at Summer Slam, what a slap in the face of all the others working their butts off.

Lesnar is a money draw. When he was in UFC, he was their biggest draw too. He was the main event at UFC 100, one of UFC's biggest PPV event and that til this day is the most ppv buys in UFC history. The next highest is also a Lesnar headlined event.

WWE will always give their big name guys pretty much what they want. People also complained when The Rock came back and won the title.

TNA was good, the mainevent was awesome, the barb wire & tac spots were great. Props to Abyss & EY for doing that on free TV, not going to see that anywhere else (unless a new company pops up with a TV deal)

As for the Lesnar thing, he's a beast enough said, he's got a ton of fans, and he's an attraction. Its a shame he's a part time guy cause I would love to see him have a run with the title.

WWE's reaction to EY becoming world champion

- People within WWE are said to be "incredibly amused" by TNA putting their World Heavyweight Title on Eric Young in a knock-off of Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania XXX. According to F4WOnline, nobody has any problem with Eric Young as a worker or a person as much as they think the booking is ridiculous.

Purpose of Evolution/Shield feud

The main goal of WWE doing a feud between The Shield and Evolution is to push Roman Reigns as a top player and to get him into a singles match against Triple H. The match with Triple H is rumored for SummerSlam but word is that it could end up taking place at Hell In a Cell or Survivor Series if they decide to stretch it out longer.

Batista is taking time off following Extreme Rules.

Batista is apparently taking some time off after WWE's Extreme Rules as he is not currently being advertised for any WWE events after that show, including RAW the next night from Albany, NY. He is also not advertised for the big European tour that kicks off in May. It was reported back when Batista signed with WWE that he was expected to take some time off to do promotional work for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy but that movie doesn't open until August 1st.

Incredibly sad news. He's obviously going to need to need time off and this probably explains why he got destroyed so bad on Raw tonight.

Saw that posted earlier on the WWE facebook page, saw it come across my news feed. The way it looked, at first I thought Bryan had passed.

Definitely why he got destroyed on RAW. Surprised they brought the tombstone back to do it though, especially 3 times.
