It seems to me that with the recent losses by Ryan Bader and C.B. Dolloway, it's looking better and better for JDS when he fight Cain.

Dolloway should've had that fight finished in the first round.

Jaykool, Cain doesn't train with them. He just went to ASU like they did. Cain is at AKA. JDS's best chance is rust.

If Lytle is going to stand and trade like they are saying maybe I should have went with the hungry Hardy. Either way I hope he does. Might as well go out with a bang.
