Who will win the briefcase tonight?

As I said in the Tip Sheet, I have grown to loathe the “heel with the briefcase repeatedly threatening to cash in” scenario. So if it’s me, I give it to Cesaro and have him set a date that he will challenge for the WWE Title. But I don’t see WWE doing that. If they want to put it on a heel, Kevin Owens makes the most sense. He has been great and I would love to see him get a chance at the top of the card.

If John Cena beats AJ Styles, does that mean that AJ is forever in the mid card?

Forever is a long time but I think AJ needs to beat Cena tonight. He didn’t come out of the Jericho feud strongly and he lost to Roman Reigns. He needs a big set of wins and tonight is the time it should be done. Plus as we have seen over the years, losing to Cena has hurt the status of a lot of people on the roster. It’s time for that to change.

I've seen several questions about Brock fighting at UFC 200 but as of now the test results from USADA haven't been released. If he happens to fail (God forbid because I’m looking forward to this fight), I know that the fight with Mark Hunt would be off but would the WWE have to suspend him as well?

Hypothetically speaking, if he were to fail for something that is on WWE’s banned list and the results were made public, they would have no choice but to suspend him. From a public relations standpoint, they couldn’t ignore the results.

Considering that WWE has a multi-million dollar deal with NBC Universal for their television shows, I am surprised that TNA continues to tape their shows at Universal Studios.  Is WWE okay with this, or have they ever tried to put a stop to it?  Would they be in their rights to demand that their television partner stops working with another pro wrestling company?

WWE is not at all concerned with that. Plus, it would be out of line for them to even bring it up. Put the shoe on the other foot. You don’t see NBC Universal asking WWE to not air wrestling on The WWE Network right?

Why do you think that before WM Ambrose and Reins were very buddy-buddy. It got to a point that if you saw one, you'd see the other. Yet since WM, they have not been seen together at all (well except for Raw this past Monday)? Another typical Creative move of thinking the audience has no memory?

Yep! Lack of continuity in the storylines is a major problem for WWE.
