    I've been a fan since his indy days, but WWE had two chances to have him break away from Bray, turn face, and didn't capitalize. The fans were getting behind him when he was skeptical of Randy in the Wyatt Family. Much like Claudio, he works great as a base for small wrestlers. I said very early on that if he and Cesaro were given 20 minutes on ppv and held nothing back, they'd both be instantly over.

     

    “The Wyatt Family Curse”

    Braun being a slight exception although I still think he’s on the Big Show trajectory for his career and they can’t even make the guy look less generic then his patch pants backwoods Wyatt Family days after 4 years now? 

    Rowan is doing well with DB but who wouldn’t?

    Zero chance of that. He's already committed the cardinal sin of being able to deliver a zinger. He'll be saying wacky WWE babyface things within two months. 

    The first time he mentions the “WWE UNIVERSE” I’ll be checking out. 

    Seriously I think(hope) Owen’s has some kind of backstage moxie he uses to not be forced to say and do the stupid shit most other wrestlers just go out there and do to be good soldiers.

    The Rock was no Bret, Perfect, HBK, or Austin. He was an over the top personality that you really didn't care much for when it came to actually working. We loved The Rock because of his promos and his ability to captivate the crowd and entertain. But I would say that Hogan in his prime was a better worker. Especially when  you put in Gaijin Hogan. 

    Hell... The Rock was Boogie Woogie 1998 ?

    He should have worked a little in Japan to win over the hearts of the dvdr faithful.

    I like that Vince just discovered that real sportsball doesn't go to commercial during play.  This XFL relaunch is bearing fruit already.  Announcing time limits would be a lot easier way to get your matches in before commercial break.  If they leave the clock on the tron, it'll also give people something to count down to during Rollins' matches.  I hope Double J has taught Vince about the Fox Box for the SmackDown move.

    WWE does currently have maybe the most athletically superior roster of all time.  They've got like 300 people though so the damn numbers game works out in their favor.  They can't present anybody like a star for shit though.  They've got to stop listening to the nerds.  For all the crying about Punk or Bryan during their pushes, they never moved the needle.  The Women's Revolution resulted in a quarter of the female audience leaving.

    They need to just go back to basics and feed The Big Dog, baby girl.  Serve him up a new heel every couple of months and push him down the marks' throats.

    Vince is swimming in a “global gold” pool Scrooge McDuck style as we speak.

    I'm definitely not sitting through a normal SWF show just to see Joey Janela against a 75 year old man.

    You don’t want to see the two geniuses that came up with the tag team “Smokin Budz”? 

     

    Although “psycho medic” intrigues me I already know it is none of the terrible shit I fantasy book in my head when I hear the name.

    I'm not a fan of EC3 but I'm with everyone else just baffled how this dude is used. Mr. Fowler said it perfectly. Dude is jacked to the gills, can form coherent sentences and has a rich asshole gimmick? Vince LOVES this kind of thing and EC3 has done less then jack shit. I would love to hear the stupid Vince reason for why he gave up on him so fast.

    And I would also like to cosign Zakk_Sabbath's idea of Roode(hey, remember when they were trying to push him for about 5 minutes?) and EC3 as a rich asshole tag team. It's better then the bunch of nothing they doing now

    It’s 2019 not 1985. It takes a bit more then being jacked and pretending to be rich to get Vince’s dander up these days.

    It helps they may actually be better than the team that won 90 games last year.

    Yea basically they have to be doing pretty good or playing the team you like that’s doing good for people in the neighboring city which the team is named after to get off their asses and drive to go see them. 

    Florida is kind of a transplant state so the loyalty is very fickle. The Bucs are in the center of town right across the street from Steinbrenner field and that doesn’t matter in terms of attendance.

    This discussion about geographic locations is far more interesting than the card for Stomping Grounds looks to be. Is there anyone here that can add some info on the Dallas-Fort Worth or Tampa Bay-St. Petersburg areas? Minneapolis-St. Paul, perhaps?

    To give you an idea we put the baseball team there because it’s like our pretty sister. No one wanted to drive there for years and the attendance sucked so the talk of the town was why isn’t the team in Tampa but I feel like over time people just accepted it because I haven’t heard about them moving for a long time and attendance seems to be good. 

     

  9. I was playing dead by daylight as a survivor during this. First three games ALL Leatherface ripping us a new one. Finally broke down and bought him for myself and couldn’t have been happier running bitches down whilst squealing like a mad man. 

    As for Raw. Shane has change the channel heat right now about as big as I have ever seen. I would rather see Horace Hogan, David Flair, Greg Gagne, dickhead normal eyes era HBK,  Starrcade 97 era Hogan, Vince Russo talking about how great he is bro, Katie Vick Part 2 maskless Mayor Kane actually fucks the dummy this time, A new Yeti/Mummy(why the fuck not?). 

    Anything but Shane McMahon on my TV ? anymore PLEASE.

    Image result for aew double or nothing gifs

    Does this mean at the next Takeover Hunter comes out and smashes the Dusty statue?

    Also fuck ppl saying WCW effects. If it was WCW they would have had the worst looking HHH mannequin in the chair with the announcers selling it as a real person and Hogan would run over it with a monster truck and they would have spent like half a million dollars on it and the rest of the show talking over everything about it even though it couldn’t actually lead to a match.
