    • Kingston can be a worthless jobber for all I care. I am so sick of him. I hope Big E turns against him and causes Bryan to keep the championship. Big E needs to lose this cartoony act and go back to being the mean nasty wrestler he was when he was with AJ Lee. Vince will do everything possible to keep anyone from becoming too popular. He has already messed up Becky Lynch alot with weeks of horrible booking on her.
