For Great Justice Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Came here to post about the same. “Hey Joe, look into the camera and talk shit.” Goddamn why doesn’t this company do that more often. That was fire and belongs in the Cut A Fucking Promo thread. More that, fewer scripts please. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanChessgame Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Good on Joe, though he should have beaten Brock for the title at Great Balls of Fire. This women's title situation is so convoluted I have no clue who is supposed to be the heel and face in it. All three are clearly acting like heels and there's been so much shenanigans surrounding it that nothing makes sense any more which is par for the course for WWE. I'm glad Black and Ricochet won but they're much better off as singles and there are plenty of other already established teams (fresh from NXT even) that could use the push more. I had no idea Fastlane was here already. This show doesn't come off like a big deal in the slightest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIShane Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) I'm glad you mentioned Cena in the title because Becky's booking vs Charlotte at the moment is coming off as peak SuperCena. She took three armbars last night, claims to be "injured", yet still magically conjures a Disarmher and bends the legs that are supposedly "injured." while doing it, just because.

DreamBroken Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 That 4 way was pretty awesome. I was down for a long Truth run but now I want a take on all comers Joe run all year. The champ is here. I think this can lead to Joe/Cena now if Cena is working Mania at all. Sad that Andrade/Rey is just tossed on the preshow though. Loved the Hardyz 1999 outfit look. 5 minutes ago, RIShane said: I'm glad you mentioned Cena in the title because Becky's booking vs Charlotte at the moment is coming off as peak SuperCena.

Prime example of why I can't stand Becky anymore. I wished she would at least be out a day to sell that hell of a beating Ronda delivered last night but it was as if nothing really happened in that regard. I know it's not likely but man I want Charlotte to win more than ever now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteCarl Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I'm guessing we get Joe/Ali for the US title at Mania, although during that match I kept hoping for either Rey or Andrade to win the title so they could do a title vs mask/hair match at Mania. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Glad that Joe won the US title. I've had a rough evening, which I let out in the How's It Going? thread. My attention wasn't fully on Smackdown, but I pumped my fist for Joe's win. I'm still firmly on Team Becky. Screw the Wooo; ditch the Bitch. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I enjoyed R-Truths run as champ, he is a great comedy act but it was nice to see him work against super workers like Andrade, Rey and even Nak since he's come back from injury. He can still go at his age and don't look any older than he did ten years ago, but Its cool Joe won. I hope we get Joe and Cena at Mania especially cause I'm sure Joe is going to bring up the fact that he helped train him or bring up there freestyle battles. Joe is so nice on the mic that he literally prevents himself from being hurt by bad booking and lossing by his promos. He is so convincing. Nobody is close, it reminds me of CM Punk before the Pipebomb. He deserves the Main title instead of the US but if he gets Cena then it's cool, if he beats Cena they should just go all the way and let him have a run as the heel WWE Champ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) I'm sad to see Truth's US title run already over, but I am happy Joe finally won a belt. Really hope Joe gets the Cena match for WM. Owens as a face feels weird to me after only seeing him play heel in WWE (never saw his indy work). It is nice to see the crowd buying in. Dug the small bit of build they are doing for Orton/AJ. 1 hour ago, HumanChessgame said: This women's title situation is so convoluted I have no clue who is supposed to be the heel and face in it.

Becky is the face purely by crowd demand. Since her turn last year she more or less been an asshole all the way through.

Curt McGirt Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Watch them do Joe/Cena at Mania, Truth interference costs Joe the match, and they feud Joe and Truth. And Joe STILL makes it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's such a good promo and presence that he effectively conveys 'badass', but then he usually gets booked to lose, and so you can't really believe him. I've said it before, but without Becky's super-booking letting fans believe that she can back up any trash talk she says, she'd probably be in a similar spot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sydneybrown Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Joe looked like he was trying to hide just how happy he was. I would love if we get a Cena/Joe WM match out of this. I don't care who wins, I just feel like it would be FUN. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 I don't think they do Joe/Ali at WrestleMania. As it is right now, it feels more like they'll run Kofi/Ali/KO/Bryan for the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 In honor of Joe's title win: I also loved Rowan's Behemoth shirt. I forgot to mention that yesterday in my fragile, emotional state.

Swift Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Agreed with the disliking of Becky's character espoused earlier in the thread. As a fellow Dub and someone I was aware of when she was first starting out, I'm happy that she's getting a major moment in the spotlight and I'll be cheering her on, but her character is annoying as hell. She always gets the last laugh. She gets beaten down, she's cracking jokes the next day, someone gets a good line against her in a promo, she no sells it and smirks. I'm not saying she should be the cowardly heel (and despite outward appearances, she is the heel here, Rousey is the justifiably angry face) but I'd prefer if she gave something back to her opponents and let them get some heat on her. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
