Maybe so, but he fits the definition of a manager to me. Was with him backstage, comes out with him to the ring, and helps him at ringside.

And they mentioned that the green mist was legal for this match. Was it a DQ back when Tajiri did it as well? I was shocked there were 2 no DQ matches last night and Kane's match basically involved Ryder hitting things outside the ring.

EDIT: And from a quick google search, WWE even acknowledges Sakamoto as Tensai's manager. Cole bein Cole.

I don't think the WWE is trying to pull a fast one and hoping we don't remember that he's Albert. I think the idea is that Albert went over to Japan, became very successful, embraced the Japanese culture and has returned as Lord Tensai. I feel like they Cole or King has briefly mentioned him as a returning superstar before.

You're exactly correct. I know people dislike listening to Cole (I know I do), but even on his return they mentioned he was previously in the WWE. It does make it hard to have any reaction for him though.

19 pages? Your settings are bad and you should feel bad. I'm on page 5.

Same here, I would hate scrolling through 19 pages. I think our longest thread hasn't even been 19 pages with these settings.

One thing I got from Raw, AJ is still hot.

[goh]

Daniel Bryan = Top heel
John Cena = Top face

Daniel Bryan = Cheered even when not on screen,catch phrase chanted
John Cena = Booed out of buliding,Daniel Bryan's catch phrase chanted at him

So now they have a face heel and a heel face. Brilliant.
