    They made a really big deal out of her coming off the top rope on her charges' opponents when she just started with the Dangerous Alliance.

    What the hell is Russo doing as a talking head on WWE Countdown. (Cesaro is the best talking head).
  3. Matt D
    Same gimmick, heel until it gets over as a face again.
  4. Matt D
    Worried that Rhodes Bros aren't making the card. Maybe in the battle royal. Damn shame.
  5. Matt D
    How much was a ticket there?
  6. Matt D
    Yeah, you should have gotten that in before half the board decided to be go Paul Jones Army on me, Shasta Waco.

    STAND BACK...

    I was looking for Arn's "Watch what you wish for" promo from 99 when the horsemen went heel, but I couldn't find it, but man, Arn was the best.

    If you can find some healthy debate, you should get a gold star.

    Now Banky turns? What the hell is the world coming to here? And Jae, Something Something Cobra most over finisher, I don't know. I'm beset by untrustworthy midwesterners here.

    Trotamaker vs FSW is pretty much the opposite of Bryan vs Cesaro. We know FSW is the Miz at least so that fits.

    Wrestling is symbolic.

    Cheatum seen escaping from the scene.

    Cesaro is actually pretty great when he does the hybrid foreign language/english promos for the International feeds. Check out his expression and how much of a general dick he is to the NAO, and then the cocky swagger after they leave.

    Bryan hasn't been a better promo than Ryback in the voting period.
  16. Matt D
    I suppose we should start talking about Bryan vs Cesaro.

    I'm always glad when I have Ottar the Viking on my side, even if That Damn Yeti isn't and K.Thor Jensen isn't voting at all. .

    I, for one, am still glad to see that Commissioner Max Andrews here is still capable of a damn fine post. For his effort,

    I'm revoking your #1 Natural Fan Club star. Let me go google some more crappy 70s beatles covers from Bing Crosby to send to you, you turncoat bastard. EDIT: Holy crap, the Bill Cosby Sgt. Pepper's cover is terrible.

    I feel like people are somehow religious about Daniel Bryan now.

    There are different challenges. If it was easier, it'd only be because you could maybe fall into a structure a little easier. Goldust works the apron. He's done a better job of getting people into WWE matches than anyone this year. With a lot of Bryan matches, the crowd is dead save for when he's doing the kicks or during the the finishing sequence. In front of the same crowds, Goldust is generally the only guy that can get them to really buy into what's going on.

    This isn't some sort of math equation. There's not a .23 Handicap for tag work. You have different opportunities and drawbacks in each. You can look at what the wrestler does. It's not easier or harder to have a good tag match. It's just different, but if you break down what a wrestler does in a given situation and how he does it, you can still learn, I think, just as much from either. It's all selling and hitting offense. It's all timing and crowd involvement. It's all shine and heat and comeback.

    Good wrestling is good wrestling. Dustin's probably having the run of his career too and Dustin's got a better career of work than Bryan.
  24. Matt D
    He had a miracle match with Miz after Mania too.

    It'd be one case if no one does it. Some people do it. Others do not. It's not about doing it for the sake of doing it. That might actually take away from a match. It's a tool like anything else, but it's a tool that's used for the sake of storytelling. The main issue is doing it a lot and then dropping it, or to have a match centered around a body part and then dropping it. Anything in wrestling that's done for the sake of doing it is probably bad. At the same time, if something's done in a match, it should mean something. Otherwise, they're just doing shit for the sake of it. How it means something is match by match. The point though is that some guys are better than others with it. Bryan is relatively bad. Cesaro on the other hand, had a match where it was enough of a part of the storyline that he literally reset his own body part in order to explain it going away. It's how it's used.
