Just caught up on WrestleMania and the ensuing Raw that followed. I've been super disappointed with the way Bray has been booked for the longest time now, and it doesn't seem like much is changing. He has a sensational gimmick, he'll be forever over with the fans, he's captivating on the microphone, his in-ring performances are of a high standard so I see no reason for him to be stagnating. It's just such poor writing and booking.

That stare down in the ring with Triple H when Bray ran his fingers down the title was the biggest tease too.

 

I think that in-ring promo with the Rock was more than we seemed, if we're lucky. I thought we'd see some sort of face turn but I think kayfabe wise that's what led the Wyatts to attack LoN. Makes sense?

I always thought Bray was at best an OK heel, perfect tweener. The Undertaker type tweener. They've also booked him so terribly it's disgusting. It all started with him losing to Cena at WM which was so so stupid. Ever since it's been the same shit over, and over, and over. Enough already.

 

I hate how the NXT Gainesville shows have fallen on the same days as the other NXT road shows. Hope I get to see Bayley tomorrow, at least.

 

If the Wyatts couldn't get over as heels they aren't gonna do so as faces. I feel like attacking LoN is certainly more about asserting strength. Biggest problem remains their booking.

 

Some of the Wyatt Family's biggest pops have come from them taking out other heels

 

Yeah, like Roman Reigns!!

 

VINCE / WWE CREATIVE: "Bray, we'll give you full control over character development, dialogue and you can be in a feud with whoever you want to. Think of it! Daniel Bryan, Cena, Lesnar, The Undertaker!"
BRAY: "What's the catch?"
VINCE / WWE CREATIVE: "You lose every feud."
BRAY: "Deal."

STARDUST: "Wish I would have accepted that!"

 

The guy has a decent car

 

I could have swore that he WAS the bassist for Metallica, glad that video cleared it up for me

 

didn't he beat Daniel Bryan though?

 

Im going to watch a friend of mine wrestle Al Snow tomorrow. i just like saying that sentence

 

I kinda feel like this kid didn't know Rowan's name. lol

WWE Superstar Erick Rowan Gave This Terminally Ill Boy A Once In A Lifetime Surprise

 

Kid was like, "Wtf, where's John Cena?"

 

The Vaudevillans went over the Lucha Dragons last night on SD.

 

US belt is buried right now.

 

get rid of the US title (merge with IC)....create a Smackdown or Network only belt.

 

Or just put it on CODY. I'm pretty sure Stardust is done.

 

Seems like they don't know what to do with Kalisto

 

Am I hip and original for realizing Enzo and Cass are essentially what you'd get if Key and Peele did a wrestling sketch or has the observation already been made several times before or am I just dumb and wrong?

 

nah that's just going to perpetuate the problem of having 2 mid-card belts that go back and forth in meaning. You have 1 mid-card title and if you reallllllllly want to have a 3rd belt, then add some sort of stipulation to it.

 

Still bitter over Ryder. *pumps fist sadly*

Woo woo woo

 

I mean, it was a mid-card Smackdown match...says mostly that both teams arent going anywhere anytime soon.

They really just need to ditch the Lucha Dragons and let Kalisto do his own thing

 

Not that it's news the Vaudevillans are going to be heel, but yea Kalisto is being held back. Just have Sin Cara turn on Kalisto, they have there match at a shitty B level ppv than just let Kalisto fly solo after that.

 

Aren't their shirts selling really well though?

 

I knew it wouldn't last...but I still wish we had longer than 24 hours with Zack as champ.
