  1. A lot of people are bringing up Barrett.. :D  Barrett got over with terrible promos. I can't see how anyone can 'poor content' as an excuse anymore. Barrett is a perfect guy for Reigns because he will make Reigns fucking fight. Reigns has a cool look and vibe about him. He does that cool Superman punch and that running kick thing on the apron. There's a lot of good in him and it's easy to see why they would pick Reigns over some guys.

     

    But why the fuck would they choose the likes of Kane (who hasn't had a good singles match in like 10 years) and Orton (who is so set in his box, you'd have to literally burn it down to get him to come out of it). If you are trying to develop a guy for the big time, those two fucks are not the answer.

     

     

    I'll take Barrett over Reigns too if that helps?

     

    Does that mean you're voting for Brie in March Madness? :D

  2. Reigns has more appeal than Ambrose. If the end goal is to make more viewers, Reigns smile would make women watch if they had him do a promotional tour.

    Ambrose annoys the shit out of me because he sells everything like goddamn Taz. Not everything deserves a 'ffugkgdhkursxwsgijcjnhyo!!!!!' face.

  3. The natural feud for Barrett is Ziggler because he never lost the belt. Just have Barrett run crap about ZIggler trying to be a great performer, while Barrett just wants to win.

    Ziggler will get embarrassed by Wade because Wade has personality and can cut a good promo.nevermind he only got the push because Barrett went down.

    That and Barrett/Sheamus matches could happen 100 shows in a row and they will always be fucking awesome.

  4. Let's see how you feel after he spends the next few months jobbing to Orton and Reigns, because that's way more likely to happen than them pushing a guy who's constantly hurt.

     

     

    First time Barrett got hurt was to keep Ziggles from dying. The second time was because of some freak accident. If anything, Barrett had shitty luck with visas but has his green card back.

     

     

    I'd build Barrett up to be the one who defeats Rusev and then Sheamus comes back be all like "Da hale? You're British. People don't even like you." while Barrett gets wildly cheered.

  5. So, I had a wrestling dream last night:

     

    Was watching Raw and Neville came to the ring dressed like Mighty Mouse, including inflatable muscles. As he walked to the ring, his muscles got bigger and bigger. The kids in the audience all looked like dogs that had been shown a card trick; the women were anti-interested and the men started chanting 'this is stupid.' When he finally got in the ring, his muscles were so big, that he exploded and confetti was everywhere and he was never heard, cared for or seen again.

     

     

    Moral of the story, don't visit DVDR while watching Leprechaun 3 in the background before you go to sleep.

  6. The Bellas biggest problem is that they have given up on Nikki already. She's the hossiest diva in a while and Brie will ragdoll the shit out of the babyface bumping.

     

     

    But they can't be real rasstlas because they don't have any indy wrestling experience or came from the sexual reproduction system of a wrestler. Man, wrestling is the worst for women workers.

  7. There's at least effort in her branding tho. Besides, the noises Summer makes is way worst than anything Brie does. What the fuck are they? A mechanical dinosaur malfunctioning? A cat with bronchitis fucking? Who knows. But she needs to shut the fuck up.

    Amazingly the little kids, with or without cancer, are substantially more important to WWE than the posters on DVDVR and those who think Flair should keep his world title record.

    Well, financially, why the fuck wouldn't you market to kids?

    - One adult ticket, and maybe a t-shirt, and a beer or something to eat

    - A kid ticket (and fucking hell if you have more than one..), a t-shirt or toy or both (and fucking hell if you have more than one kid...), plus the adult ticket, and a beer if you got money left over after spending it all on your kid(s)

    It's common sense. Pro wrestling isn't about honour and shit; it's about how much money a bunch of carnies can make.

    Because kids don't have any income. An 8 year old may be able to nag their parents to take them to an event. But they've shown to be inept at convincing their parents to sign up for a certain monthly subscription service the entire future of the company is riding on.

     

     

     

    So, you're telling me if you were a kid right now, the WWE network would appeal to you? Most of the stuff is from eons ago in a little kid's mind and if the kid has a tablet, who cares when you got Netflix?

  10. Is it just me, or are they pushing the irritating "Dolph loves to PERFORM (rather than win matches)" thing really hard lately? Another one of those wink-wink-wrestling-is-fake things WWE seems to love these days.

    Dolph says it all the time in interviews...it's one of the things I dislike about him. As a character he doesn't care if he wins or loses as long as he puts on a great performance and makes his opponent better.

    Yeah he needs to work on his promos, I don't get his character lately since winning at Survivor Series. It's like they told him to do his interviews very soft spoken and humble, and calmly talk about how respectful he is towards his opponents. He's been vey reserved in his backstage promos, and too methodical, like what happened to his cocky "i'm better than everyone" act? Then he goes out for a match and he's acting cocky again and yelling about how damn good he is. I'm willing to blame whoever is scripting the promos or coaching him to do it that way, but they should really have him be more animated and excited during his promos, and act more confident and consistent.

    Ziggles promos are never going to get better. He is EITHERYELLINGBECAUSETHATSTHRFUCKINGTHINGTODO!!!! or he is an unfunny asshole who thinks he is cool. I always look back at that Suvivor Series 2011 crowd eating him alive after they realized Ryder wasn't going be in the match. It was like embarrassing to watch.

    I don't know why people peg Ziggler a good promo.
