    A rumor I hope ends up being true in terms of the network

    "WWE Network is preparing to shift to a new strategy where it will focus more on independent and non-WWE professional wrestling.”

    No idea if that dude is reliable, but he also says Brock is confirmed for Summerslam/RAW after

    As long as NXT doesn't become an FS1 exclusive or something

    The indie stuff has been talked about for a while. At their press conference around Wrestlemania time they dubbed an update to the Network as "WWE Network 2.0" and claim its coming end of this year/early next year. It'll include the price tiers that have been surveyed about as well as a redeseign. My guess is that Progress, and Evolve are both locked in place and they'll have a few more indie promotions on there as well. If NXT does become a FS1 exclusive, I hope they keep the show as an hour plus commercials, and not cut down to 45 minutes plus commercials because the show is having a hard time introducing new characters. A 90 minute NXT is ideal at this point.

    Actually, a 2hr version where the last 30 minutes is Talking Smack-ish would be great for some characters. Have people like the Iiconics, EC3, Velveteen, etc...who you dont want losing frequently...but who you want talking constantly.

    But most of the rumors have been that FS1/NXT isnt in the near future.

    Nah, could be a big going away fuck you kind of moment...could be a rematch, etc.

    But Id be down with a Braun cash-in on RAW to take the title from him.

    Brock beats Lashley at SS

    Impromptu match made on Raw
    Roman wins title from Brock on Raw

    Braun cashes in

    They avoid the build up to Brock/Roman, and Braun ends as champion, while still getting Roman the big win

    My prediction: Brock gets stripped. Flips out on everyone and the announce team and stuff, gets suspended. Comes back after his UFC to do a “real champ never lost” angle

    The answer should be whoever faces Brock at Summerslam loses....he comes to gloat on RAW, Braun's music hit, he cashes in and beats Brock.
