Didn't Big Show (The Giant at the time) win the world title in his in ring debut in WCW? He sure did, and in the most impressive manner possible, dude came back to life after falling off the roof of the Cobo Arena earlier in the show.

So in the past WWE have given new superstars title wins in their debut matches, US Title, IC Title, Divas Title, Womens Title, Tag Titles, but do you think WWE would actually do that with the WWE World Heavyweight Title? I think it'd be really interesting, I think if they make Owens seem like a Brock Lesnar unstoppable force, they could easily give him the title on his first night, rather than 2 months on. If the WWE creative were smart at all they would put the title on a short chubby dude that wears a full body girdle under his hobo-ish ring gear, upon his debut on the main roster.

I don't understand why the WWE would invest time to ensure the failure of a team. They are not imposing by any means, yet were compared to powerhouses of yesteryear, they were given vignettes that made them look like fools, their gimmick was outdated and poorly executed, and JBL poured gasoline all over the fire that was already raging.
It boggles my mind how they thought this team would get over.

Why would anyone feel bad for these schmucks? They all got 30 dollar shirts for free, and got to stay despite looking like a pack of idiots.
Hopefully this will serve as a lesson for fans to save the terrible cosplay for cons and conventions.

He looked a little heavy in the midsection, so I doubt we see a BFG-like Stinger, but what makes me think he's ready and adapted to his new surroundings is the fact that he's attacked a heel stable, and befriended a cold calculating superstar, which means he's in mid season form.

For those that are not familiar with Sting outside of his current run of vigiliantism, he is known as perhaps the must dimwitted and gullible wrestler of all time.
I'm sure most of you reading this are scratching your heads asking why, but trust me, that's what I was doing this past Monday night as I saw Sting show up to protect Randy Orton of all people. You know the guy that was the golden boy of the Authority for over a year, the man that calls himself a viper, has no conscience and has made a career out of trying to hurt people through acts, and means that a true Vigilante would consider to be reprehensible and worthy of facing the tough brand of justice that only a vigilante can deliver.
But this is Sting, so he helps Orton, just like all the times he felt Ric Flair was a swell guy, and that Lex Luger was a really cool dude.
With that said, I am looking forward to his Mania appearance, but I really was hoping he would've wised up after 14 years in purgatory aka TNA.

Never have fans wanted Bret pushed over another competitor outside of that fateful night in Montreal.
Bret is stroking his ego big time and using revisionist history.

They never played up the notion that Orton was lulled into a false sense of security by the Auhtoriy appearing, and Rollins did not exactly spring this surprise on him, he came out bragging about folling Orton, reveals the Authority and they methodically walk down the aisle, if Orton was legit concerned he would've hightailed it up the aisle. But I guess only heels do that.
The fact that Orton stayed in the ring waiting for them, shows he's not scared of the Authority and makes Seths plan seem pointless, which is a slap in the face of the viewers who had to sit through 3 hours of it.
Talk about telegraphing Stings arrival.

the booking is atrocious, and this topic is about the character Seth Rollins regressing. If he is supposed to be booked as a scheming mastermind that put major crap together, then having him put Monday's plot together leads viewers to collectively scratch their collective heads.

I think you mean "regressed", not "digressed". Good catch. It's early for me.

So really you have a problem with WWE creative and their booking on Monday, which has nothing to do with Seth Rollins "regressing" at all... How has he not regressed? The guy put the Sheild together, and orchestrated their downfall to cash in and become the future of the WWE, both monumental feats, and now his big schemes involve pulling a 3 hour con on a guy that already knows he has the numbers game against him, and has no conscience. That's major digression if you ask me.

I often question why I watch RAW, especially since I am annoyed by most of the show, but what has really been annoying me is how much Seth Rollins has regressed.
The supposed architect of the Shield, and future of the WWE, put together the most ridiculous plan this past Monday night, then bragged about it, as if it was the greatest thing ever.
This whole storyline between him and Orton is an overbooked mess anyway and as anticlimactic as can be, but Rollins managed to make it worse.
With Randy Orton having already extracted the revenge he wanted the week prior, Seth kicks off the show looking no worse for wear after catching the beating of his life, and has the Authority apologize repeatedly in the long drawn opening segment, before Rollins goes against the grain and accepts Ortons mania challenge on 1 condition, with that condition being that he get his hands on Orton tonight.
As the night progresses we see a series of backstage segments where Auhtoriy members drop allegiance faster than a scalping retail worker keeps new merch off the shelves.
This all leads to the mainevent of the evening where Rollins comes out with a mic in hand cakeling like a clown about how Orton took 3 weeks to outsmart the Authority and it only took himself 3 hours to outsmart Orton and brings out the Authority in all their glory.
How in the freak did he outsmart Orton? I'm pretty sure Orton expected to be faced by all members of the Authority, which is why he set his plan to gain seperation into motion in the first place 4 weeks ago.
Not once did they play up that Orton was lulled into a false sense of security by the Authority abandoning Rollins. Was a character without conscience supposed to be unnerved by J & J leaving Rollins side? Better question is why does the WWE continue to insult the intelligence of the viewers?
So there you have it folks, Rollins has gone from masterminding one of the great factions in WWE's recent history, and orchestrating their demise, to putting together this pointless "ambush" that "only" took 3 hours.

Everything about this team annoys me, they are by far the blandest pairing of superstars to hold the tag titles since Jindrak and Cade.
Their entrance is horrible, why is Kidd wearing headphones? To drown out the silence? Natalya is the worst eye candy since Nidia, and Cesaro would benefit from a singlet to conceal his gynecomastia.
To make matters worse, for all their athletic talent, they completely fail to connect with the crowd, and are now in the midst of a 4 way feud that nobody but each competitors parents or significant others cares about.
What happened to the days where "talent" we're left off the Mania card?

Larry is deserving, the guy had great psycology in the ring, and could talk.
Loved seeing him as a member of the Dangerous Alliance teamed up with Arn.

We're complaining about legs that may or may not be just a tad too thin. Meanwhile in the land of JAKKS, anything over 240lbs has the same upper body and arms Stop your bitching! You can say the same about Mattel then since Honky and JYD have the same upper body, arms and legs.

Mattel has an obsession with old man sculpts, and is under the impression that tanning beds and steroids did not exist in Hogans heyday. Jakks wins easy.

It's clearly the voice of the member of creative who wrote the promo.

It is common knowledge that the black scorpion angle was not only terrible, but also a bust, so why the WWE would choose to copy or emulate that is beyond me.
