Now that Stephanie McMahon’s plan to force Daniel Bryan to surrender the WWE World Heavyweight Title has backfired, what obstacles lies ahead for Bryan: What’s next for Brie Bella, as she is no longer part of the WWE roster?

Kofi Kingston was rewarded for speaking his mind with a beat down from Kane at Payback. It was a shocking reminder of what Kane is capable of. Should Kane re-emerge on RAW, disaster will soon follow.

Now that John Cena has put an exclamation point on his months-long rivalry with Bray Wyatt, is the WWE Universe free of The Wyatt Family’s evil allure?

Disappointed by a less-that-stellar win/loss record as of late, the Rhodes brothers have seemingly gone their separate ways. Might Goldust & Cody regain their luster as solo competitors?

The Shield asserted their dominance at Payback & beat Evolution in a clean sweep. The Shield strides into RAW with some well-earned swagger. Whatever they do next will be must-see. Believe that.
