Did anyone read the report that HHH might be pushing the Draft back several months??? If so, that'd be awesome! RAW has ALL of the momentum right now both in terms of the quality of the show and the ratings, and the stacked roster. I'd be all for them keeping RAW and SD the way they are, tbh. RAW doesn't even need a World Champion and it's still firing on all cylinders. Keep it the way it is and ride with the hot hand.

According to Fightful, it's not gonna happen until after WM. That would be awesome as there are still so many good feuds that can take place on RAW in the meantime:

That ROLLINS promo tonight! HOLY SHIT. Seth continues to prove why he's the best thing going today with completely and utterly taking Matt Riddle's soul tonight in their promo segment. From the Edge trilogy, to the Cody trilogy, to this. On the mic, character-wise, in the ring, he's been doing it ALL for a couple years straight now. No one is more consistent. Still can't believe what he said to Riddle here. It got me even more pumped for their match:

Although I don't believe the Rollins/Riddle match needed to be cancelled at Summerslam, I will say the steps they've taken since then, and since HHH took over, have really made this feud much better. Going into Summerslam, I mean this was really just an upper midcard storyline that you knew you would get some good matches out of but not much else.

Now they've been able to ramp up the animosity both men feel for each other, to the point where they brawl on sight, to where now you just want to see the 2 guys fight. You know you're getting a good match, but now it has even more going for it.

Over the past year or so, I've been scratching my head about Seth's booking when it comes to wins/losses, especially due to how great of a performer he's been; whether it be his character work, his promos, his matches, etc. But tomorrow I can honestly say if he does lose, I won't be as annoyed as I've been over the past year due to the segment he and Riddle had at RAW.

That segment did so much for Seth that it's actually above wins/losses and has brought his character and credibility and relevancy to quite possibly the highest level it's been in his entire career. The amount of attention and praise he, and the segment itself, has raised Seth's stock to being the most talked about wrestler in the company this week.

No matter who wins or loses this match tomorrow, I think this feud is going longer than one match, so it doesn't matter much anyway. But that segment on RAW this week is doing so much for him, it's incredible. I am looking forward to how good this match should be and how hot the crowd should be. It's gonna be fun!

Great Seth interview with Ariel Helwani that they did last night covering all topics; Riddle, Triple H, Vince, the match at SummerSlam being cancelled, etc. Worth a watch, less than 17 mins. This is Part 1. Part 2 gets released next week. Great stuff:

ROLLINS DELIVERS AGAIN!!!!

Holy shit! This guy doesn't miss for going on 2 years now. I can't believe it. And he actually got just as much, and at times, even more cheers from the crowd than Riddle got!

Let me say it clearly. Seth is the best performer in the entire company these days and it's not even close.

Yeah match was amazing. It's pretty close for me between Gunther/Sheamus and Rollins/Riddle for MOTN, they both blew me away.

Really enjoyed the storytelling in this match and Rollins taking advantage of Riddle losing his cool as the match progressed. That second rope stomp was lethal. Was a big fan of him pulling so much out of his arsenal as well. The little digs at Orton hitting his moves, and might be one of the best pedigrees I've seen him deliver.

Elton John inspired outfit was awesome too. He always kills it in that department, and manages to keep outdoing himself.

Also, the flame pants Seth wore today is much better than the flame pants he wore in 2016. I don't know what it is with Seth and wearing flames on his pants sometimes, but this gear was much better. The entrance gear and tribute to a young Elton John was pretty cool, too:

Seth and Becky did an interview with Ryan Satin on his "Out of Character" show that was released earlier today. It's about 55 minutes and I listened to the entire thing earlier tonight. Here are some snippets from SethRollinsFans Twitter account if you don't want to listen to the entire thing:

What is in the tweet below is becoming an almost weekly thing at this point. Seth is red-hot. They have to capitalize on that sooner or later. He's too over and too great of a performer in EVERY way possible these days to not:
