The WWE Total Divas Thread

Everything on this show is either: Real, fake or based on reality.

 

 

So it's one or more of the only three available options that it can be? That explains it so well...SMDH.

 

Did your head explode while you were typing that?

 

 

Based on reality, but recreated for the camera.

 

It's not something real, which was caught on camera (like when Naomi's bf tried to go after Brodus).

 

It's not something fake, which was created solely for the show (like every second Eva Marie is on the air).

 

It's something that has a hint of truth to it, but wasn't caught on-camera and was instead recreated for more compelling television. 

 

Some reality shows stage everything (most reality shows). Some shows try to capture reality (COPS). Some shows just film stuff and present what happens (usually the first season of a reality show - the subsequent ones get more and more staged). Total Divas is straddling every line, depending on who is on-camera or who they're on-camera with.

 

Explaining reality television to wrestling fans should be so easy...

But then Faaaan   Dannnn  Goooo appeared on screen and referred to himself as Fandango.  So either he doesn't know how to say his name either or wrestling is fake.  Which is it you guys?

 

Everyone on the show uses their real name and Faaaaaaaan Daaaaaan Gooooo's real name is actually pronounced Fandango. He was still pretty Faaaaaaan Daaaaaaaan Goooooo-y for a guy named Fandango though.

I get a real thrill out of seeing wrestling fans pull the "this bullshit is all fake" and "I'm SO above watching crap like reality tv" cards when those have been played on us about wrestling by everyone we know in life.

Cena and Bryan want to be anywhere else and it is tremendous.

I'm still surprised they even got Cena to do this.

 

They usually keep his personal stuff under heavy wraps. Now he's on fucking E! with the curtains pulled back showing off his bitchy heel girlfriend and mansion, while double dating with his girlfriends twin sister and her boyfriend, who he's wrestling at Summerslam. And this is after a divorce, no less.

 

Whoever said the gifs out of the context years from now being awesome is right.

I'm guessing they gave him a big pile of money.  Like whatever E paid them for the show, the majority goes to Cena and the girls get scraps. 

 

Cena didn't get killed in his divorce but he's probably at that point in life where he sees his body breaking down and this was a payday without having to take bumps.

So who is the true heel?

 

Fahn-dahng-oh is up front about the fact that he's a scumbag player and owns it.

 

John Cena feeds a Bella all sorts of lines about why they don't have to get married, stringing her along and allowing her to hold out hope that maybe someday he'll change his mind.

Man Fandango was like a predator. He smelled stupid "newbie" blood in the water and attacked. That Eva is a complete moron. I like that bf proposing. He's like shit she's gonna be surrounded by dudes I gotta lock this up. Like that ring is gonna stop anything.

Imagine what the show would be like if Big Dave was still around.

Being in a relationship with a diva while not being a WWE guy must be ridiculous. Not even taking a shot at the divas. Just, all those sharks would have me paranoid. You'd almost have to just accept the inevitable.

I remember Paige's pops (Ricky Knight) on another messageboard causing much lulz a year or so back by stating that none of the WWE guys would be getting their hands on her because she had a long-term boyfriend.

The continuity editing on this show is awful.  They're on the plane eating and then the food is gone and they're drinking and then the food is back and then they're drinking again.

 

'Jon Uso'.  None of these twins do shoot names correctly.

If Batista was on this show, we would have a whole week show to dedicated to Bryan coping with being forced to watch Nikki and Brie fucking Dave at the same time while eating a porterhouse. 

 

If Bryan ever does back to the indies he is going to get the worse indy ribbing about this show. Hopefully he decides to pull a Hollywood gimmick.
