Just be happy there’s an extra set. If you don’t like, don’t buy. This set caters to kids.

If you want to say his direction could have been better... I would agree. If you want to say WWE didn't push or use him... I think you're full of it. Of course they used him. They had to use him to an extent because right after the Shield split he was getting the best reactions out of the 3, hands down. Yet he was treated least important out of the 3 for years, all they way til he left the company. Sure he held multiple championships and even the world championship, but everything he did was still third fiddle in comparison to Seth and Roman. You also forget that Dean hasn’t been on an official WM card since 2016. So sure they had stop/start pity pushes for him and slapped a title on him for a month or two to keep him happy. But he was never ever their guy and was never seen anywhere at the level he deserved. If he was, they would have made damn sure he didn’t walk.

God that contract segment was so cringe. “you like to build, but I like to burn it down.” Christ who tf writes this stuff?!?!? No human being talks like that unless you’re on a G rated cartoon show on Saturday morning. Aj has definitely done better promos. I’d hate to say it because I love both guys but Rollins and Styles laid an egg during that segment as far as promos go, jeeze that was horrible. But when you have a psycho 72 year old holding a gun to your head forcing you to say things that sound ridiculous on tv, word for word, I guess you have no choice. it's also on the performer to either sell the crap out of it or stand up and take his shot that promo was a dictionary picture of what is going on in today's product it's a shame because NXT has had some terrific promos Definitely, and while both guys aren’t terrible on the mic, they aren’t known for their mic skills. You can totally tell when someone is just phoning in the words and that’s definitely what both guys were doing. And also look who’s in charge of NXT and Monday night Raw, respectively. That gives you most of the answer.

I’m sure that flashback set will pop up somewhere eventually and you’ll be able to buy them for like $10 a pop.

It’s disappointing because TRU had the most inventory of WWE figs and I think I found the majority of my figures there, on top of the amazing exclusives they carried. I feel like Target’s wwe section gets smaller and smaller every year. Walmart gets new stuff like every 3-4 months. TRU was amazing because every time I walked in there I left with something more times than not.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they did a Mania in Saudi Arabia. They might as well do that False. The Saudi deal already pays them big bucks. It would be senseless to hold Mania there and thus lose out on Mania bids/ticket sales/merch as a separate big revenue stream. No, I mean it wouldn’t surprise me if the Saudis struck a massive deal with WWE for a Mania there.

Another tall talentless blonde getting an opportunity? Ya pass You really think so? She seems to have a lot of potential and has a respectable background. She's not a Barbie swimsuit model. The most impressive thing I’ve seen her do is completely crush Natalya after a botched moonsault. Does she have potential? Sure, but you don’t throw someone who is green in a top spot based on potential. I respect her military background as well, she must be a tough chick, but how have they used that to get her over. Her gimmick hardly reflects her background at all. Instead of having her get some wins between her callup and now they had her walk up and down the ramp for absolutely nothing. This spot should have went to someone like Shayna Baszler, in all honesty.

Man, Endgame was a great way to cap off a decade plus of storytelling. Such a beautiful love letter to all the characters and the fan base that have been following the franchise since day one.
I know we’re getting more and the train is gonna keep plugging away after the fox acquisition. But hypothetically, if this was it for the MCU and there was no more after this, I’d be okay with it. That’s how damn good this was. I encourage everyone to go see this, even if you’re not a diehard, and if you are a diehard, satisfying isn’t even the word to explain how perfect this was. A+

Well she might have the time considering the amount they’ve actually used her since her call up.
Good for her and preparing for life after wrestling because there’s a small window where you make good money in this business.

It’s more go away heat than anything. Real heat doesn’t exist anymore in this day and age unless you suck and the fans know you suck. Nobody is going to pay to watch Baron Corbin get his ass kicked like they did for Flair in the 80’s or Triple H in the late 90’s/2000’s. Sure Corbin has heat, but it’s not the type of heat that you’re saying it is. Heat is heat. The guy is hated, which is the entire point of a heel. It doesnt matter how he got it, but he has heat. Yes, he has heat I’m not arguing that. But the heat needs to equate to dollar signs to mean anything. Nobody is going to drop a dime to see Corbin get his ass kicked, nobody.

like it or not, Corbin is one of the most over heels on the roster in terms of actual heel heat the guy gets more than most guys It’s more go away heat than anything. Real heat doesn’t exist anymore in this day and age unless you suck and the fans know you suck. Nobody is going to pay to watch Baron Corbin get his ass kicked like they did for Flair in the 80’s or Triple H in the late 90’s/2000’s.

Curious if Im the only one that hates watching movies with tons of people so Im waiting till like a week & half and going at a random 11am time on a Tuesday? I understand your reasoning. But man that would be impossible for me to do. Especially since more than likely it’s going to get spoiled for you if you’re actively on the internet til then

I think we should get this in figure form. Since it was Batista’s last match I think it holds value. The only issue I think would be the deco for the tattoos so we probably wouldn’t get any accessories.
