A few years ago, you had the "A+ player" and "B+ player" metaphors being used. Triple H brought up a new one on Raw. What happens when coal faces extreme pressure? Will it be crushed into dust? Or turn into a diamond? I like that one. Will I start discussing whether certain wrestlers have turned to dust or a diamond or might turn into either one if the pressure increases on them? I don't know. I might. It's the idea that you can't tell the worth of someone only in situations where things are going their way. How do they react to adversity? How about extreme adversity?
I have brought up this idea with Rollins before. He just doesn't seem like he is ready to stand on his own. Even after he won the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania, he didn't seem to feel like a true top star. The WWE has taken away his sidekicks recently and made it look like he has to do things on his own. The usual tension within The Authority is back. I hate that angle. I didn't like it when they did it with Randy Orton so soon after the stable was formed. But at least the WWE is trying something to make Seth look like he can stand on his own.
Brock is back. Is this the big summer angle the WWE will do? Brock Lesnar once again gunning for the title? I would hope they do more than that. Regardless of the outcome at Battleground, Brock will likely still be around for Summerslam. I cannot imagine them developing anything too great for him this summer. Ratings were mediocre during Wrestlemania season this year. Will they be just as poor around Summerslam? Or will Lesnar actually provide a boost?
