I don't care for Cole/Ciampa/Gargano/Bryan/Black.
I liked Baron Corbin (pre-barista/King gimmicks).

Kofi Kingston was more over as a fake Jamaican than he was during Kofimania

Triple H is one of the all time greats and is better than Shawn Michaels in every which way.
WWE didn’t miss the boat on Cody Rhodes, Cody couldn’t get over or succeed in the big ocean that is WWE. He needed to leave to make himself relevant. Finally Dustin > Cody. At least Dustin/Goldust made himself a legend on his own.

I don’t think Jeff Hardy is anything special without his brother. The Hardy’s are perfect examples of “better off as tag team wrestlers” much like Cesaro. Which I guess Cesaro is better off as a tag team wrestler might also count.
I do think The New Day are the greatest faction in wrestling history. Great matches, perfect chemistry, and longevity. They took something everyone thought would be a joke or career killer, and turned it into one of the most over things in wrestling history.

New Day certainly deserves a lot of credit. I was at Royal Rumble 2015 where we were chanting “new day sucks” as Xavier pounded the mat to that beat, which might have been the first time that happened. At least I had never heard it before that night. Anyway, never could’ve imagined what they would become after the way things were going for them at that time. Even by SummerSlam that year I was marking out for them winning the tag titles.

With Becky gone, nikki cross is the most annoying person on the roster

Matt Riddle is awful until the match starts.

Seth Rollins is kind of boring. I've wanted to like him for years but I struggle and I enjoy Baron Corbin although I get sick of how they use him sometimes

Stone Cold's promos designed for the crowd to yell "WHAT?!" is more entertaining than anything he did during the Attitude Era.

I did not like the Ripley-Charlotte match at Mania. Made my opinions about it known here when the setup began, but went into watching it tonight knowing how much praise they received. But all I saw was the story of Rhea always fighting from behind and Charlotte's ego being an ever present, oppressive force. If they wanted the story of Charlotte showcasing her veteran's advantage, Ripley deserved a stronger showing up front. If the story was meant to be Charlotte being arrogant, Ripley needed stronger comebacks throughout. What I saw was someone being outclassed, outwrestled, and ultimately losing the fight she wanted in the first place. Not the way to introduce and build up a future star, what all the indications pointed to regarding Rhea Ripley.
Don't see how Cole-Charlotte couldn't have topped that...
Just catching up to the Firefly Funhouse Match, I saw a lot of good in it. Heard much talk about it not being a "real match" but we've seen and done that. The focus was the Fiend attacking Cena's psyche. Stripping away his past accomplishments and perceived strengths, then preying at the flaws, insecurities, and regrets John may see in himself. Then Cena finally gives into the anger he has deprived from the audience which finally leads to his downfall. A few things I would have changed:
- Johnny Largemeat and Wyatt being edited into the SNME intro
- Thuganomics John should have been stuck saying the most wack rhymes, instead of getting a couple good verbal licks in
- Rambling Rabbit being Cena's ally throughout in full gear, but ends up in Huskus's place at the finish, being pummeled by John as a representation of his fans
Still had fun watching.

Alicia Fox was one of the best divas. Personality wise she was always entertaining doing her crazy gimmick.

As a person of faith, it's really hard to watch Seth Rollins right now.
Orton's new Legend Killer Mk.2 gimmick, if kept on this track, will be better than the original incarnation.
I third that Bret screwed Bret. I understand that HBK was an insufferable thunknugget but if Bret had just been the bigger man, he'd have been fine. Then again, if the Screwjob hadn't happened, "Mr. McMahon" wouldn't have been a thing, the Attitude Era probably never would have been fully realized, and the WWE would have died two decades ago. So there's that.
The Fiend as champion was a mistake from day 1
Sonya is indeed more attractive than Mandy, and her look this week on Smackdown was just... wow.
Speaking of attractive women, Chyna was beautiful. So is Nia Jax. Tamina is especially gorgeous. Nyla Rose is also on this list. No, I am not trying to be funny here, they all tick my boxes for attractive.

Every Professional Sports Wrestling Entertainment company should join the WWE Network. This would give all of those Federations exposure, and give the Network more content and more variety.
The WWE United Kingdom Championship Title Belt is the best looking Championship Title Belt in the Universe today. The WWE Intercontinental Championship Title Belt is the 2nd best.

It's been a while, I'll play again.
Dislike/negative. Cm punk is overrated.
Like/positive. Flippy work rate indie darling spotfests. Not all of them. But most. Sometimes the story can be as simple as two really athletic people trying to out work each other. Sometimes they have a lot of nuances and storytelling that people miss because they're caught up on just the spots. I loved the cruiserweights and Lucha guys as a kid, and to me the flippy spot fests are another evolution of that, and one that clicks and makes sense to me.

Not sure who did it or why this was locked. I deleted what I assume got it locked.
Please keep it on WWE. And please try not to argue with someone else's opinion. That's the whole point of the thread, thus the word... UNPOPULAR.
