I have a bad feeling it’s going to be Omos. That reaction when he wins is going to be like a fart in church I guarantee it.
Worse than Reigns winning in 2015, atleast there was a reaction for that. There’s going to be dead silence this time.

I don’t understand his character one bit. Great performer but never “figured it out.”
His peak will always be cashing in at WM31. That’s an amazing accomplishment but boy did I think he would do more.

they shot themselves in the foot by releasing so many talent. Now the talent pool is thin and they’re calling back Mickie to be in the Rumble. That’s what happens when you do a mass exodus of talent. Now look at Smackdown. They have absolutely nobody to work with Roman at the rumble so they had to get Seth who’s on Raw to do it. I’m sure the original plan might have been Drew, but they didn’t even have a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th person down the card that would have been a replacement. Combination of bad booking and needlessly getting rid of talent.

I don’t understand why they can’t just pull the Fiend..it’s not like it’s the first time they’ve pulled a figure out of production due to them being released or not renewing contracts.
I’d imagine it’s going to sell horribly since it’s gonna be released months after his release.

Wrestlemania season. Time to put titles on guys that are relevant. I like Big E but dude is an upper mid carder at best. Going in to your biggest time of the year you need your two champions to be big name guys. It’s been the same top guys for the better part of a decade. They need to start building other guys. Brock isn’t going to be there forever and Roman is all they have otherwise. I can’t go into detail why it’s so wrong, should be self-explanatory, but it’s been the same tired story for years.

He’s okay.
With the direction WWE is heading, I don’t think they would sign him due to his age. You never know, but he’s not one of those talents that is a must-have. He’s huge and can do some cool stuff for his size, but that’s about it. He’s lacking some personality for sure.

Looks like they were able to get rid of Kross from E93. Strange how they were able to scrap him but still have Bray Wyatt in the basic line even though he was released way before Kross.
Cool to see Cesaro get another elite, way overdue. Rollins looks awesome as well. UE Batista is an absolute must have. I want a suited MVP but that basic appears to be massive in height. I think we should get suited elite MVP as a BAF perhaps.

The Triple H from 2-pack wit Jeff.
Austin literally looked the same all the time but if you want it super specific for that time, I’d go with the RSC exclusive elite Austin.

That is a very weak set. I think Dakota Kai is the only one I “need.” That’s a Big E attire from 2 years ago. Also, the earthquake and Yokozuna have been released multiple times for a flashback.

Very lucky. I can’t describe how much I miss that place.

Yeah it’s a bummer, but I think Mattel took full opportunity to make as many Jeff’s as they could.

While I was gonna get the chase figure, it wasn’t a must-have attire. I’m not too disappointed with it not happening. But because of the inconvenience, you sons of b*tches owe us a One night stand attire with the cool briefcase, WWE, and ECW title.

E16 comes to mind. E69 because there were so many first time in line figures. E23 was also pretty dope

Anyone know where I can purchase ropes that are similar to the original authentic scale ring ropes. I have the WWE one that’s from 2015 and the ones I bought from ringside are shot. Does anyone have suggestions

Hit Row is the most head scratching. Brought them up and then took away the chick. Did they even have a match on Smackdown? Crazy, this company is making money hand over fist all while they’re morale and creative has never been at an all time low.
With all these cuts, there’s no way Vince isn’t selling. That’s the only way you can ethically justify, while still being pieces of sh*t, getting rid of so many people for no other reason. If that’s not it Idk what else it could be.

The UE flair is fantastic. Kane would be up there if the elbow was painted

I did not like eternals. And that’s coming from an MCU fanboy who likes 99% of the stuff they’ve done. What did you not like about it? I’m on the fence. Don’t know if I’ll see it or not and I would consider myself an MCU fanboy as well. Character development wasn’t there. It’s so hard to do that with 10+ characters. The plot was weak. Nothing about any of the characters stands out to me to get me invested. Overall, the movie failed to get me to care. Was it a horrible movie? No, but I hold these movies to a higher standard. Might be the worst out of the bunch. Maybe it’s because I saw it late at night but it seemed ridiculously longer than it needed to be. Just because there’s Marvel characters that have never made the crossover into movies, it doesn’t mean it’s necessary. I don’t think the eternals was a good choice and they are so obscure relative to popularity. I mean, guardians of the galaxy was as well, but it was so well written and it had so much heart. Again, it gave me a reason to care.

He’s nothing special.
Which probably means he’s a future world champ.

Karrion Kross was not a "should've been" world champion. Dude was blander then vanilla. Vanilla is actually really good. We need to stop comparing bland/tasteless to vanilla. Vanilla is fire.
