  1. That’s right I forgot about the Hype Bros break-up.
  2. He sort of reminds me of Evil Crush. Another thing with this heel turn is Mojo was barely a thing on TV. Hardly any fans remember that Mojo won the Andre The Giant trophy. So why should it matter that he turned heel? He would’ve been better off getting an old school repackaging, and make us forget he played Mojo.
  3. Don’t they still have certain wrestlers that are on the writing staff? Maybe they are extending their hatred for wrestlers carrying their belts around to writers carrying trophies around too.
  4. Bray needs a Cowboy Curtis, and Mojo is right there.
  5. I’m interested in how they enter. Having 5 dudes enter from a different part of the arena would be a cool visual.
  6. Practically just watch it in clip form some weeks, but from reading Meltz, the plan looked like a program with Cena. Probably not be fed to him since it would’ve been too soon, but maybe Cena would’ve gotten his win back.
  7. We’ll never truly know, but it looked like another situation similar to the ones he had with Orton, and Bryan, where the feuding rivals took a break, and became allies.
  8. He will be fed to somebody by WrestleMania. Why not throw him the bone, instead of Cena, or Roman?
  9. 1.Drop the other talk-shows that nobody likes, and see how this does live. If he can’t do this live, then this gimmick is straight up dead. 2. Bray’s first real face turn is something. Who you program him with is the real question. Maybe feeding Lars to him would be the right thing to do to give him his credibility back. Because if they decide to program him with Corbin, they might as well tell him “We have nothing for you creatively”. 3. Before his injury, we all saw Bray turning on Matt as the only real conclusion to that angle. So I never bought that face turn.
  10. Network pressure, too many wrestlers signed, brand split failing, fan disinterest, XFL failure incoming... They are a big balloon that needs to let out some air, or it is ready to...
  11. I would say transition it into a live Piper’s Pit segment, with a stage set, and not an in-ring set(This is fucking billion dollar company for fucks sake). For 3, or 6 months make it a talk show segment, with hints of Bray returning to the ring, and shades of him either being a face, and heel. Then turn him face, on the feud that sets up his first match back.Thats how I’d do it.
  12. I did too. I always bring up John Nord Vs. Barbarian as the peak of this. It was a super sloppy random match, but the surprise of seeing it, and the improvised clobbering was a real treat. Regardless putting Bischoff in there will do diddley with Vince at the head. Which has been a good thing, and a bad thing. The good thing being that they ensure that WWE for its lifespan since the late 80’s has had a consistent quality control. If you watched Superstars, you’d know you’d get the same quality presentation on All-American, and so on, and so on... WCW was infamously the “Too many cooks...” problem. Each angle, and program was super inconsistent from each other to the point you felt you didn’t know which era of wrestling you were watching. But that brief period in the mid to late 90’s they had something in that “Too many cooks...” problem where it somehow created an incredible 5-star meal. WWE’s problem for the last 19 years has been a lack of quality in that control. They desperately need to drop the control to get that quality back.I mean you see that with NXT, but they need that to be done on the main roster too.
  13. When we talk about WWE’s TV, we always bring up, Kevin Dunn. But who was WCW’s guy behind the camera’s? I ask because his direction(outside of filming around blood) was usually top notch, from the way they shot the action, the entrances, and promos. He was truly the unsung hero from 94-98.
  14. I’m perfectly fine with promos. I’m just tired of wrestlers reciting unnatural dialogue back, and forth to each other all the time. They sort of brought it back, but for some reason needed wrestlers pretending they were using their phones to film the promos.
  15. You know what would fix everything? Move the RAW announce desk to ringside.
  16. Holy shit, are they planning on doing another “We are sorry. We’ll promise to do better.” segment again? Maybe they can spin it, but this time Vince wants the locker room to apologize. It’ll be another Authority angle, but it’ll funny to see that dumb twist.
  17. I’ve been reading results, but isn’t the current storyline that Vince wants Elias as the face of Smackdown? Also do you mean that Vince only hates Roman because he’s not on the authority’s side like Seth was? Because that is usually part of that storyline. As they did the same with Austin.
  18. Yeah, the night he won the title, but I’m going to put all that on an easy pop for a new champion being crowned.
  19. They really, really think an anti-authority character works with him. Who knows, maybe the cancer scare has softened the majority in-arena crowds, but it’s not a ratings getter. Reigns as “The guy Vince is against being The Man” will never be believable.
  20. Roman ain’t moving the needle on Smackdown. It’s honestly not worth trying. I have a feeling they might be desperate enough to back the dump truck full of money towards the estate of Mr. & Mrs. Brooks.
  21. I just want Dustin to go back to his old trunks, so we can get a new generation of fans complaining about his ever distracting dick bulge. ”This guy must really love to wrestle.”
  22. Kento came from Kensuke Office before he became a full-time member of a big promotion.
  23. The low budget erotic thriller franchise from the early 90’s. USA used to play them back to back.
  24. It’s a real weird “What if”. Like how long did Vince know that Hogan was “retiring”? Also he needed someone to pair with Savage( Then later Bret), and he needed the other guy to fight the freak of the month. Would it have been Warrior, or Undertaker? A lot of it stems from Warrior flaking out mid-way of the Roberts angle. Once the Warrior returned, though, Vince pretty much made up his mind on the matter.
