The Natural Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I was thinking about Brock Lesnar WWE matches since he returned and he's either programmed with someone repeatedly (Reigns, Triple H and Braun) or one and dones (Bryan, Styles and Punk). I'd prefer rematch with Bryan and Styles to a rinse and repeat of Brock vs. Braun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasha has done more in her short career than The Birdman did in his entire career. I know someone will say "oh he was good in Georgia, he was good in Memphis." Not impressive enough to balance out his WWF garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffSnackwell Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 5 hours ago, JonnyLaw said: It’s less about the meaning of the term, and more about the use of the term so soon after controversially holding a PPV in a country whose ruler ordered the dismemberment of a dissident. That part totally slipped my mind. Now the question worth asking is whether or not it was intentional considering the pettiness and spitefulness of the McMahons. The usage of the phrase being purely coincidental is a heavy load to swallow. Or it could've just been a Freudian slip caused by guilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Tamina's best role was the badass muscle on Team BAD. I enjoyed Tamina most here too. I don't think she's cut out for a singles run at this point but she's fine in groups or teams. People were clamoring for more Tamina/Nia interactions after last year's Survivor Series. So, of course they pull the trigger a year later when most no longer care. Good stuff from Nattie/Ruby last night. The feud seems to be happening mostly off camera but I have enjoyed the matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WWE really needs to hire continuity editors for their programming. If you watched the Chronicle thing on Ambrose, he did a way better job laying out why he did what he did there. If they are going to use Roman like this, in their mind you know Vince is thinking "well, if we run him down now it will make people very sympathetic to him when he comes back". I hope Roman is able to beat this and come back, but I honestly don't think Roman is gonna need help with sympathy when that day comes back and he returns. On another topic, am I the only one who doesn't like the way Ronda sets up her armbar when she's like just holding the arm and trash talking? When she hits the armbar out of nowhere it's amazing. But I just don't like the one where she holds the arm and tells them what's coming. That spinning fireman's carry she does (I think they are gonna called it The Piper's Pit) is a much better finisher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 The biggest problem is that if anyone watched his Chronicle episode, they know Dean is emotional about Roman and their relationship. Reigns is the light-hearted friend a hardened guy like Ambrose needed and for now, that's gone and Dean's way of coming to terms with it is go back toward the dark side. If they showed where Roman's illness broke Dean and he couldn't handle losing the one friend who hadn't betrayed him, so the old wound Seth inflicted came back to the surface? That's compelling, especially if Seth has to work through the guilt of his past transgressions while trying to reach Dean's goodness. The way they're doing it now, however, it feels like the only way they can get heat is through Roman. That it's the only way to keep Dean heel and hope everyone stays behind Seth for protecting Roman's honor. And if they have to depend on a guy at home with cancer to move the narrative--OOF. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If creative would use maybe a 1/5th of your explanation then I doubt anyone complains that much. The problem is that you're WAY more thoughtful than they ever could be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
