  1. Christian's character is "wily grizzled veteran". I have no idea why people can't see that.

    How does he play that character? How is it reinforced in promos and on commentary?
    Well, he looks grizzled. And last night during his promo he talked about being a survivor of the Attitude era and the McMahon/ Helmsley regime. And the commentators always talk about him being a vet.

  2. All I know is that our 10 year old is PISSED at HHH and The Shield. He's been watching wrestling for just over a year now, and I've never seen him get actually ANGRY at wrestling before. Last week when DB got beat up, he looked like the Miz Girl. Even when talking about it the next day he got all angry. When DB finally gets his revenge, he will mark out like mad, and it will be awesome.

    Please follow up on this. I'll probably know because my lifeforce is largely renewed by the power of children marking out for pro wrestling, but I'd still like to hear about it.

    As for me, my four year old son Daniel LOVES John Gina and Daniel Bright. He is MAD at people being mean to Daniel Bright. When he kept asking "Where's John Gina?" I told him he's home hurt. "He's got a boo boo?" "Yes son, a big one on his elbow."
    That's awesome. My three year old nephew loves Rey and I had to explain to him that Rey has an owwie and that's why he's not on "bump", (that's what he calls wrestling.)

  3. But even fans of the TV show would probably side with her. Reality TV is something people love to shit on but can't stop watching.Like wrestling.

    Ah, I'd guess that most fans of the show aren't loving it in the same way people here are. Again, I think the fact that the faces reacted the way they did, and that AJ shoehorned on the "came from a wresting family" comment, it's the start of an AJ/ Nattie angle.
  4. Watched the AJ promo. I guess they expected there to be a lot more support for the Total Divas girls, and it didn't happen. It was a great promo in terms of words, but I don't know what it set out to do,

    It gave the fans who shit on the reality show something to cheer and fans of the reality show something to boo. Especially since the faces were reacting somewhat calmly and the heels were being annoying as fuck.

    Know what's a good way to get over Daniel Bryan's new finisher? Let's not show it!!!

     

    Don't they work with a five second delay? Maybe it looked bad on initial feed.

     

    That must be why they didn't show Punk's elbow drop.

  6. I think this really needed the ref calling for the bell, once the match was over, that some guys would run in to help because wasn't the stip they couldn't interfere in the match? Or if Show dropped Orton with the WMD because he wasn't in the match so he couldn't come in to pick the bones.

    I don't think there was an official stipulation. It's just that they all fear how HHH will make their lives a living hell if they do anything. It just takes one man to lead the charge. It could be John Cena returning just long enough to call out the locker room before taking a beating. It could be Bret Hart showing up in Toronto and cutting a promo about how HHH and the McMahons are a bunch of rats and people should stand up to him, leading to the Shield menacing him and Natalya dragging Khali out there to start the ball rolling. It could be giving Regal one last month-long run where he defends Daniel Bryan and wins an improbable match at Night of Champions vs Dean Ambrose before losing a Raw rematch and getting slaughtered so brutally that it spurs the troops to action.
    I was thinking an Austin appearance to rally the troops.
  7. I honestly can't think of one good reason to keep Miz on the roster.

    He's the guy who does everything the company asks as far as personal appearances and all that. And he's a really good guy, listen to him on Cabana's show.. he really comes off as a great guy. That being said he needs to be a heel.

  8. It's really only three shots that Hayes sticks around for:WWF @ Struthers, OH - Fieldhouse - September 18, 1984Michael Hayes, Terry Gordy, & Buddy Roberts defeated Ken Patera & the MoondogsIs last appearance of the Birds as a trio and then Hayes does these by himself:WWF @ Miami, FL - Knight Center - September 22, 1984 (2,000)Michael Hayes defeated Rene GouletWWF @ Minneapolis, MN - Met Center - September 23, 1984 (7,500)Pat Patterson & Michael Hayes defeated the Moondogs; the bout was originally scheduled as the Freebirds vs. the Moondogs & the SpoilerWWF @ London, Ontario - London Gardens - September 24, 1984Michael Hayes pinned Dave Barbie at 2:42 with an elbow drop off the middle turnbuckleAnd then Hayes is never seen again until 1995. I completely believe the Hayes/Andre thing happened even if it didn't directly lead to his firing. Hayes tells the story himself on the Andre ep of Legends of Wrestling and its hilarious.

    Ah, ok. But Bret's story was all three fired the next day. But that's how rasslin stories go.
  9. Fuck you to the customer at the club I work at,( yes. the strip club), who walked up to the stage while one of the dancers who is black was up there and said " Hey look at the n----r." We kicked his ass out, but she's really upset. These girls have to put up with all kinds of bullshit coming out of the mouths of the fucknuts that are our clientele but that's too fucking much. Who fucking does that?

  10. Is it too early to include "Backstage Bully" Ryback? Skip Sheffield didn't work out, Poor-man's Goldberg Ryback started out ok but quickly wore out when he was over-exposed in the main event. But post-Cena back-of-house employee-harrassing Ryback is fucking hilarious. I look forward to his segments every week, which is something I've never said about Ryback before.

    That shower segment was the possibly the most ridiculous re-enactment of the movie "Shane" ever filmed. This includes Bill Hicks.Mind you, that's not an insult.
    That's exactly what I was thinking.
