offspring515 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Plus if you think The Shield is getting a pop because they make their entrance through the crowd you obviously haven't been paying attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Yeah, I really wanted to punch that guy halfway through. All the kids wanna see John Cena, guys! Because he only appeals to kids, see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 The douchiness comes through in the guy's "I'm above all this" tone. He has to fill up his overview with snark, lest someone think he actually likes wrestling. What he described sounds like a decent show, and the WWE is far from embarrassing most of the time these days. So why the douchey tone? He doesn't have to be a fanboy, but why go the other way except to make people think he's supercool. I think you answered your own question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood Cibernetico Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Shame Harper/Cena are only getting 5 minutes, but I am sure Cena will have to 'run the gauntlet' before Mania so I am holding out for a longer match between the two. I wonder what Rowan can do with Cena in 15 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MORELOCK Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Am I reading the same article? There is nothing snarky in that thing at all. You either aren't reading the same article or are too settled into your role as resident DVDVR nice guy to notice the following seven annoying things: The Shield came through the crowd to a "hey, look, wrestlers are coming through the crowd" pop.Show humbly accepted the audience's adulation. Miz tried to "eliminate" Show, but Show "eliminated" both Sheamus and Miz to "win" the Inaugural Impromptu 30-Man Andre the Giant Memorial Over The Top Rope Miz TV Black Carpet Unofficiated Unsanctioned Battle Royal. After a pause, John Cena's music played and the kids went nuts for their hero. Suddenly, happy fun time ended when the Wyatts interrupted. "Houston, we're here," Bray declared.

bink_winkleman Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 FWIW, it's actually spring break for a lot of those kids that were heading for the exits. "Of note, WWE was still selling C.M. Punk t-shirts at the merchandise truck parked outside the arena entrance." Actually sounds like a bad sign, like they're just trying to get rid of them while they can.

Brian Fowler Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Of course he does. There was the great oneupmanship over Bischoff's book royalties when he tweeted about a check, wwe slashed the price online to pennies, Bisch bought a bunch, signed them, and auctioned them off for charity.

Jerry Hattrick Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Honesty I really wasn't sure about the royalties with all this Punk confusion. You do bring up a good suggestion and I wonder if Punk would be willing to pull a Bischoff. Hell, this has good PR *potential, whether his departure is a work or not. *emphasis on potential And yes I was being snarky with the tax write off thing.

Kropotkin's Beard Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 More than any douchiness in the write up, the face he wrote "Time restraints?" when he means "time constraints" irks me. But not nearly as much as Cena/Harper only getting 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGFanJay Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Of course he does. There was the great oneupmanship over Bischoff's book royalties when he tweeted about a check, wwe slashed the price online to pennies, Bisch bought a bunch, signed them, and auctioned them off for charity. And then he signed with TNA and that was the last time he got one up on anyone. Well actually, he got paid for months to not contribute to the show, so yeah, he got one over on Dixie Carter, but that's a bit like spotting something before a blind man does. The Shield-Kane stuff ruled as did Harper-Cena, which was too short. Still, it had a LUKE HARPER RUNNING RANA on WWE's top star in 2014, so yeah, it was impossible to not love. Rest was a show. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/03/wwe-sd-3-21-14.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/vd0qgaasqpw3cj2rvms9fy70hl32hecd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamBroken Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Cena/Harper was definitely a fun five minutes. Cena rana followed by a Harper rana was awesome. 4 way tag was good stuff too, so glad the Shield avoided splitting up for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damn Yeti Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Somebody mentioned Corporate Kane being very over with their casual friends, and I get that. He ruled the whole episode and got monster heat in the first segment. The four way was a lot of fun when imagining these guys reacting to the results of March Madness. Cesaro just "Nope!"ing Rollins with the kick was the best. I don't care for the Eminem package, but holy shit HARPER VS. CENA! Both of them PISSED OFF about Elite 8 losses. I think a full blown Cena heel turn on Bryan could be the next big thing in the Summer Slam to Survivor Series window. I think you could get the kids to boo Cena with something creatively brutal like what HHH did, but several months from now. Wouldn't even need the belt involved.

_MJ_ Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Corporate Kane has been hitting the weights. He's jacked/swoll/buff/cut/etc. He might get a fitness cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I popped for that running hurricanranna that Harper did to Cena mere seconds after Cena did one to him. Give those two like twenty minutes on a PPV. While watching it though I was thinking that if anyone said a couple years ago that Brodie Lee would be booting John Cena's head off on a Smackdown in the lead up to Wrestlemania...you would be crazy.
