It gets dumber and dumber every time. At least Cesaro, Rusev, and Big E, and Andrade sound halfway cool.
Murphy. Blech.

I think were to the point where Benoits wrestling career can be discussed on shows like this. Discussing history and glorifying him are 2 different things.

Jazwares currently makes Fortnite figures. I looked at the $18 versions of those figures, and their pretty close to scale with Mattel's with pretty good detail. Hoping for something similar to those figures.

I get why they're going with Orton. Safe worker, and history is there. If all goes well I expect to see vs Styles, Rollins, Owen's down the line. And maybe some that dont come straight to mind like vs Bryan, Nakamura, Reigns, The Fiend. And in a perfect work we maybe get a small Christian return, with a few dream tag matches like vs New Day, Revival, and the Uso's.

For F**ks Sake. If we're dropping these terms from the Titles and treating them all equal, then by all means Roman Reigns should be allowed to spear Bayley in half and take "The Championship". Just like Aleister Black should be allowed to kick Becky's head off and take "The Championship". Hell, if Becky, Charlotte etc... want "The Championship" then lay the challenge down to Brock Lesnar. Or if Sasha wants to feel relevant again, she can challenge The Fiend and his spooky powers for "The Championship" Can't wait for AOP to win the "Tag Team Championships" I dont think you get it. Let me put it this way so you understand. Imagine if instead of the WWE Championship Brock is holding, it was referred to as the WWE Men's Championship. Doesnt that sound stupid? Everyones looking at this and being confused, but not really understanding what's really going on. It should be : The Men's WWE Championship The Women's WWE Championship. It's not about removing the genders from the titles, just removing the genders from the names of the title.

I will say that Rollins deserved every bit of people turning on him. Delivering 3 star matches and 2 star promos, while claiming to be the best in the game wasnt a good look.

I really like the way they're booking him, but I would of done it another way so therefore, I dont like it anymore.

The Fiend is champion(everyone wanted), Lesnar was booked entertainingly, amazing return by an all time favorite, Drew McIntyre won the Rumble(everyone wanted).
WWE are starting to get their footing again IMO after the last few ABYSMAL years.

You’re literally fantasy booking the WWE backstage environment so that you can pretend everything you hate is booked by Vince and everything you like is booked by someone else. 😂 That attitude is what makes Vince’s job so easy. It’s not fantasy booking at all...Its widely out there that Vince is hardly there on a day to day basis as he prepares for the XFL. He has his hands on Smackdown due to the FOX investment It's even more widely out there that Vince has always and continued to make final calls, and that hes responsible for quite a few of the moments fans loved while posting on social media things like "thank god vince didnt get his way on this".

What was great about the Edge return, was that even though it leaked, with the type of injury he had and so many others never returning from the type of injury, it still never seemed really plausible. This seems like a full fledged return.

Soooooo someone catch me up to speed. Brock is in the Rumble but the title isn’t on the line? So what’s the point of him entering? Theoretically if he won, he could challenge The Fiend at Mania.

Benoit(tarnished) and Mysterio.
Those were the 2 that made the Rumble feel like anyone had a chance.

You can do whatever you want when your Stone Cold over. Seth is not, and has never been. my point is that every top star in wrestling history has had a catchphrase that gets used ALL the time. its not just currently. Ok and? Are you arguing that Seth was great as a face and the fans just didnt accept him?

Yeah, I am. His material, delivery, and demeanor works 1000x better as a heel. When he went face, it was natural, because the crowd loved him as a heel (as they will again now). Then he became generic face 101, with his "I BURN IT DOWN and I WILL SLAY THE BEAST." " "ONE THINGS FOR SURE NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS ON RAW TONIGHT I WILL BUrN IT dOWN." Every. Single. Week. "And That's The Bottom Line, Because Stone Cold Said So" You can do whatever you want when your Stone Cold over. Seth is not, and has never been.

so everyone gonna like Rollins now cause he turned heel? Yeah, I am. His material, delivery, and demeanor works 1000x better as a heel.

So bizarre how much their careers align. A much-hyped in-ring technician outside the "Universe", finally appears but achieves very little on the main shows. Hindered by injuries and unsupportive booking. Finds themselves behind the announce desk and thrives. And must I say, suited announcer Joe: get on it MattelDesignTeam! There are some similarities, but joe has recieved 10x the amount of opportunity that Tazz had. Hes been booked infinitely better than Tazz. Main evented Summer Slam for the WWE belt, main evented a PPV with Brock, NXT Champ, US Champ. Tazz had what, a tag title reign and a few hardcore titles and was consistently in the mid card for most of his run. Their WWE stints are uncomparable in terms of booking.

I know it's been said for years now, but man i wish gimmick matches werent PPVs. Whens the last time a gimmick match felt special. It's just look at the calendar and oh we get TLC matches in 2 months and Chamber matches a few months after. Totally robs the matches of their prestige.

I could see an NXT guy winning and choosing to stay NXT. It would be a surprise, and put NXT in the lime light again.
But realistically, if that happened which I could see, no way its positioned as the main event. It would be the middle of the card marquee match with some cool downs after.

He actually deserves it. His reporting has left an undeniable mark on the business, and hes almost responsible for creating smarks, which whether you like or not, has a loud voice in today's wrestling world.
