Ace Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Is this "New Day" gimmick as racist as I think it is? Well, it is WWE. So, I'd say yes. What exactly is their gimmick anyway? It hasn't really been well defined. Being the holiday season, the WWE has clearly formed a stable to promote sensible, healthy eating during this time of gluttony. To be fair, her husband does theoretically still work for the company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 If they put Mark with them, maybe they can do a Power Team gimmick where the power of jeebus allows them to bend bars and rip phone books in half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo-Yo's Roomie Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I'd rather they do a Powersauce gimmick, and unleash the awesome power of apples. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Okay show. I dug the New Day, although them being angry militants had a better chance of getting over past the fairly low ceiling this gimmick has. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/11/wwe-sd-11-28-14.html I'm willing to give this time. They're supposed to be smart, and there's plenty of reason to think their 'name it and claim it' schtick is not completely sincere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebbie Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I hope that ain't some sort of new revelation.. Also, they edited Nikki's promo. Why is AJ the only diva allowed to bury the other ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamal Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Also, they edited Nikki's promo. Why is AJ the only diva allowed to bury the other ones? Yea and they didn't even do a good editing job of it. It was all kinds of awkward. I'm guessing they didn't want her to come off too much like a face since apparently spoilers were describing it as a good babyface promo. But I really wish they had left it as is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 It would be interesting if part of Punk's settlement with the WWE was influence over how AJ is booker for a period of time or what is said about her on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Well, she's overrated and only appeals to pedophiles, so what's the big deal? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 What Punk settlement? I guess I'm in the dark about this. The battle royale at least gave me hope for a Cesaro title win for a hot minute, and the heat at the end was great. Santino showed up,.Da Big Guy's new shirt is clearly influenced by the old Voivod logo (one of the many, at least), The New Day is just strange and I really don't know what direction they're gonna end up going with it.

StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 What Punk settlement? I guess I'm in the dark about this. Well there's just been a thread locked, but basically WWE and Punk have come to a legal agreement vis a vis past and future royalties - but any terms are for us not to know and not to find out.

JonnyLaw Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Why are people acting like New Day may be insincere faces? They've got the Dust Brothers coming after them talking about extinguishing their light. I wonder if they'll bring in a third Dust of some sort.

victor Posted November 30, 2014 Author Share Posted November 30, 2014 Smackdown was okay, not great but okay. New day is gonna quickly fall into the level of Los Matadores, comedy relief. This is just the kind of thing Vince would find funny. And on top of everything, I missed my chance to see Jericho picked up a paper and noticed Fozzy was in town, they opened for Texas Hillbilly Coalition. Poor Fozzy.

I'm no fan of the AJ character but I dig her as a wrestler and it's gotta suck to still be with the company after all of this.
