So, have they given any reason to Jon Stewart's heel turn, or will it all be "addressed on Raw"?

Maybe he and Cena are going to feud over the correct spelling of "Jo(h)n"? At this point it wouldn't really stand out as being an especially stupid part of WWE programming if they did.
 
So, did they offer any explanation as to Jon Stewart's heel turn, or is it just gonna be one of those "LOLWWE" moments that they hope we'll forget about.

Edit: Never mind, one of my friends who watched Raw filled me in. Apparently, Stewart did it so Cena wouldn't surpass the number of title reigns Ric Flair had.

Also, Stewart got a hero's reception from the Brooklyn crowd, and drowned out Cena with boos when Cena came out to confront Stewart. Cena also FU'ed Stewart.

He didn't turn heel, he was doing it for Flair to predict the whateverteen reigns record.

Yeah, my friend was saying the same thing. "He wasn't so much turning heel as just trying to help Flair"

It's a logical piece of storytelling, though, I'm sure in the mind of WWE Management, the response they want is "Oh noes! Jon Stewart cost super face John Cena the match! Fans, boo him, he's the bad guy!"

Fortunately, the fans in Brooklyn didn't buy into that shit for a minute.
 
Very hyped for the new and improved Wyatt Family. Haven't been this excited since Daniel Bryan joined. It will of course end in fresh depths of disappointment, but that's weeks days away at the moment.

Best case scenario, he'll have something to do storyline wise. Worst case scenario, he get's released, can't use his old gimmick, or Luke Harper's in-ring ability to make any money on the indies.

Except Rowan is a competent wrestler with a career in Japan before coming to WWE. His ring work is gimmicked.
 
They are reportedly considering bringing a female into the group as well so there might be 5 Wyatts soon.

Also: Today I watched Ring of Honor's field of honor show (a show they ran in the Brooklyn Cyclones baseball stadium in Brooklyn) from last Saturday.
During a gauntlet match Bushwacker Luke came out, got into the ring so his match started, got thrown out Royal Rumble style, and preceded to walk the bases whilst being counted out and the fans going "you still got it!".

WRESTLING!
 
Please tell me he did the Bushwhacker walk. That's awesome.

I dunno if I said it here or not, but Bayley would be perfect with the Wyatts... If they allowed the gimmick to work. I know that people are really hot or cold on it, but I really do think it could get over big time. The Wyatts were pretty hot when they came up from NXT, they have Luke Harper. I am interested in seeing what this Braun guy has to offer, however I see him getting the Big E treatment within a year (go from being an unstoppable muscle to job guy).

More like Mark Henry. Braun's a professional strongman, lifting 800+lbs in a 14" deadlift. Almost a GRAND number of pounds.

As far as the next Wyatt, I'd lol if "Sister Abigail" was Kana. It wouldn't be Bailey, since she's already over like rover. I might be Athena, since she was recently signed.
