Forbes on Why Roman Reigns Will Not Work as the Face of WWE

Donald Wood of Forbes.com has published a new article examining why Roman Reigns won’t work as the face of WWE moving forward, and below is an excerpt:

Winning the championship at Survivor Series—only to have it ripped away by The Authority-backed Sheamus—is almost identical to how the company booked the quintessential underdog Bryan at WrestleMania 30.

CM Punk on “It’s vs Its”

In the latest Nerdist “Grammar Slam” video, CM Punk talks the difference between “It’s and Its”:
