there are actually still some methods of booking the CENA vs RUSEV match at PAYBACK so that it is exciting, but not only far from predictable, but still provides compelling storyline drama to increase their feud and add another ppv match... dont sigh just yet..hear me out..
this would be fun, we have seen Lana doing business with the Authority, its obvious she is far from just a pretty face.. it was her that gave cena the shot at WRESTLEMANIA.. remember that.. GOOD.. cause its time we get some Realistic scenarios play out on WWE ppvs which include storytelling that doesnt erase the past events ( hate that)... RUSEV is in trouble.. that match has been goin on past 15mins LANA is either Thrown out of the ringside area by ref for causing trouble or maybe slightly injured by accidently push ( the 1st is easier).. Now the action is going full blast, cena has rusev beaten and looks to end it, camera is close up on the action as we hear over the arena's loudspeakers " JOHN" in that trademark LANA Voice.." John" just like we heard before SUDDENLY we see LANA on the titan tron.... she is in a room with NIKKI BELLA on the floor .. a chair propped up against the door to stop brie and security... LANA has already beaten nikki with a weapon and is threatning more harm.. tells John to .. no, demands John Say I QUIT into the mic to the ref making RUSEV the winner, and NEW US CHAMPION...and first time John Cena has said i quit ( i think..??)...
now this might seem hard to imagine.. but thats because wwe has been easy booking lately.. LANA has serious reason to do this.. A. her Man, her Love Rusev has lost trust in her abilities, and she has cost him much embarrassment therefore she wants to prove her dominance and earn his Respect with Evil, Devious behavior.. plus this establishes Lana and a strong Heel which can only HELP wwe tv.. just cause we have naomi heel doesnt mean there isnt room for another.. plus what crazy evil Girl wouldnt go after girlfriend of the man her man is fighting...
Now this could easily lead to RAW next night , CENA demands rematch, at next ppv title match, but could also give us good heated brawls with meaning, and maybe a mixed tag team match CENA & NIKKI VS RUSEV & LANA at house shows, tv or after their next ppv match..
if i had the pencil , the book, above is what would go down at payback.. LANA does to JOHN CENA what HE did to her prior to Wrestlemania...
next option, which is a little more likely since it seems real relationships millions see on total divas doesnt get written into wwe tv..??
again remember LANA has been doin business with authority, its obvious she wants Rusev's respect and she is getting more involved.. and deserves it .. she is freaking beautiful and great look, good actress, great athlete.. probably training but thats left to be seen ( my money is on he blowing up)...
again, match is past 15 mins.. both are beaten up, but not giving up... RUSEV locks in a submission hold, and i really prefer it to be something NEW.. not only to help sell the following ending... BUT the camel clutch is not as threatening..he can still use it in this match & future.. BUT HEY in a match where u must make ur opponent say I QUIT a submission ending is likely.. so Rusev has maybe a boston crab locked in after really hurting cena's lower back.. REF asks loudly with his live mic on his shirt " what do ya say John?" we hear over that same system John Cena say " I QUIT I QUIT "
.. LANA used maybe Money, or GOLD or Ravinshing Russian moves to get either authority and or a wwe tech dork to simply copy cut paste play audio of John sayin i quit from earlier episode of RAW.. bell rings.. cena has the Look of what the ?? ,like montreal 97!!.. RUSEV is US CHAMPION, LANA saved her man...
now next night on RAW could go 2 ways. CENA proves he was screwed, AA's the tech dork, but obviously wwe doesnt just hand back TITLE so we get brawl and rematch booked next ppv with a payoff type stipulation.. OR the better 2nd part Cena is proved to never have said i quit, maybe even the tech dork plays the security footage of Lana forcing him to prepare the audio clip.. So RUSEV is stripped of US TITLE and breaks up with LANA for the HUGE embarrassment last night she is his hero, tonight again Lana fails and hurts his dominance.. which all doesnt make rusev look bad or weak.. rusev is the challenger for the us title Open Challenge that same night on RAW.. and defeats CENA with help from lana !.. leading to a big payoff match next ppv ...
what say you..??
i would love to see the LANA hold hostage NIKKI BELLA backstage in the middle of the US TITLE MATCH...it reminds me of the crazy way some feuds would go in 97.. i'm not screaming go attitude era, just for more realism.. LANA wants to earn Rusev's respect and they are EVIl so she is gunna have to get dirty..!! and CENA did exactly same thing to her prior to WM.. right? CENA locked in on rusev like a pitbull until a crying Lana said " ok john, OK, u got it."
