Thanks to You People
Things feel pretty damn awesome in WWE right now. Punk for 366 and counting. Daniel Bryan being booked fantastically with good storylines and the ability to shine creatively. Being a "Paul Heyman Guy" is a thing (and on a t-shirt!) and he told the WWE Universe tonight that they celebrate the idea of extreme but could never handle it. Sara Del Ray is working as a trainer in FCW and Aksana had a good match tonight with Kaitlyn. Damien Sandow and Antonio Cesario are putting on wrestling clinics. Dolph Ziggler's bumps are a show within itself. DEAN AMBROSE, SETH ROLLINS, and ROMAN REIGNS just debuted at Survivor Series last night. A tag team division is currently thriving. JBL vs Cole vs JR on commentary. Big Show and Kane are interesting again. Main Event has been solid and the advertised Miz v. Ziggler card for next week sounds fantastic. And even John Cena is flirting with TV-14 while they advertise 3-disc NWO and Attitude Era compilation DVDs. Thank you creative. It seems that you're listening.
Now if R-Truth would quit quoting Hacksaw, Sheamus stopped being the most inexplicable asshole ever, Titus learned to speak, Hornswoggle never appeared again, Tyson Kidd was on TV every Monday, Mark Henry showed up to win the Royal Rumble, King could quit being a homophobic racist during every friggin episode, stop the Tensai lifting botches, get Matt Striker a real job, quit calling Eddie's widow fat, MAKE PUNK VS. STONE COLD HAPPEN, and no more photoshop humor during PPVs ever again I'd really like that too.
Am I in a position to make demands?
Never the less they're doing A LOT right and I applaud them. WWE is exciting again.

Dean Ambrose vs. CM Punk (FCW)
Yes, its a fan video so it has its faults. But it also captures the essence of being there and you get to see why live shows are such a great thing to be a part of. I'm not going to speculate just yet on what the debut of Ambrose/Rollins/Reigns means but its awesome.
Seth Rollins v. Cody Rhodes after the jump.

Video Links to Almost Every 5 Star Match
I'm not here to approve or disapprove of Dave Meltzer's five star rating system. The argument about its legitimacy would never end. But I do know that Meltzer has a keen eye for good wrestling and has been doing this literally since I was born. Thus, agree or disagree, when he ranks a match at 5 stars its worth your attention. Via my latest discovery of the Ole! Wrestling Blog I found this incredible list of damn near every one of the 5 Star matches with video links. Check back when you come up for air.
And just for giggles after the jump Cameron reveals her favorite match of all time.
