    Triple Threat or One on One?

    I have no issues with a triple threat. Charlotte vs Ronda was a great match without a clean ending, so I don't see how it wouldn't be fitting for Charlotte to join in on this storyline. On top of that, people are starting to really hate both Flair and Rousey, so they're gonna cheer even louder...

    Rate Raw 2/4/19

    this is like their 500th time trying to recreate the Stone Cold/McMahon dynamic and even though it always gets a pop, it never does anything for the long haul imo. I guess it's like a thing every upper card wrestler in WWE has to go through at some point. Now that Becky's suspended tho, they're...

    Smackdowns So Good, RAW is meh. How

    quality between the 2 varies from time to time. Smackdown has the upper hand by only being 2 hours long, so it's easier for them to determine what's important enough to be on the show and what isn't. On top of that they currently have a better roster which they've had for a while now, but both...

    Early Wrestlemania Card

    if you look at the last couple of high profile Cena matches, you can tell that they don't bother too much with him winning anymore. He lost to Styles, Nakamura, Reigns, Taker and recently he got pinned by Finn Balor. Drew's their next big thing so I don't see how they're willing to let Cena put...

    Have you ever felt that the WWE has the absolute worst fanboys/marks out of the rest...

    this post comes in about 8-9 years too late. The WWE/wrestling audience has changed a lot. Nowadays, homegrown WWE talents are the ones who have to impress fans more than anyone else on that roster. Wrestlers who come from the indies or any other wrestling company usually get a pass from most...

    Early Wrestlemania Card

    As it stands, it is still very likely that Charlotte will be added to that Ronda/Becky match, and I don't take offense in that at all. It only makes people wanna see Becky win even more and the match quality isn't gonna drop either. Angle vs Cena sounds dreadful tbh. It's rumored that Cena will...

    Would You Watch AEW?

    sure I'll give it a shot, if I keep on watching it is a different story tho. I also watched Lucha Underground when it started and then that fizzled out during the first season. But I'm definitely intrigued, especially because I didn't really keep up with NJPW but I kept up with whatever Kenny...

    Next Paul Heyman Guy or Girl?

    Heyman's almost overrated in a way of thinking that you can pair him up with anyone and he'll make it work. If you look at his most recent on-screen partnerships with people like Curtis Axel, Ryback or Cesaro, it's very obvious that you can't just throw him together with some random person and...

    To be the man...

    if all goes well yes, but for now it's Lesnar

    To be the man...

    that wasn't clean enough dude, you have to absolutely show dominance in matches like these to establish the end of someone being the man. Shawn mercifully put down Ric, Taker mercifully put down Shawn and Brock mercifully ended Taker's streak. You could make an argument for Reigns mercifully...

    To be the man...

    well let's see, technically the man who beat the man is now the man, which would be Shawn Michaels when he retired Flair. If we see it as a title, HBK lost that title when Taker retired him.. and Taker technically hasn't retired yet but Lesnar definitely gave him the biggest defeat of his career...

    Seth Rollins is the wrong choice.

    well then take Becky Lynch for example, she's very much over with many audiences and we've seen a bunch of outside endorsements coming her way through social media. She just won the Rumble, but it didn't change the ratings either
  14. SWL

    Seth Rollins is the wrong choice.

    the idea of a wider audience is dead to begin with. Everybody knows what WWE is and what they're about, it's not like there are people who've never seen or heard of it. You either like wrestling or you don't. It doesn't really have much to do with who's on top and who isn't anymore, especially...

    Seth Rollins is the wrong choice.

    you can't blame the ratings of a 3 hour show on 1 person. Technically you could blame Ronda, Becky and everyone else on that episode for low ratings as well while you're at it lol. Nobody's ever going to be "the right choice" because you just can't please everyone, especially in the wrestling...

    Rate Raw 1/28/2019

    I think it would have been better if Seth got the upper hand on Lesnar for their first interaction, to establish that this is a different type of challenger who doesn't necessarily have to be seen as the underdog. But this is just the beginning of their 2 month feud so maybe they're saving that...

    Hideo Itami Finished with WWE

    lol we should just start a thread where we talk about every release from WWE this year. Wouldn't say that this is a huge loss for the company, his run with WWE was quite disappointing due to multiple injuries and underwhelming matches. At one point I even forgot he was still there

    Daniel Bryan's amazing. I love it when wrestlers customize their own titles. From afar it looked like a cardboard belt but after some close ups of it, it actually looks really nice with these light blue rocks, the wood and textile strap.. it gives the whole thing a new identity, which is exactly...

    Dean Ambrose leaving WWE after Mania 35

    there's a lot he could still achieve or shoot for. He didn't main event Mania, he didn't have a lengthy world title reign and in general, the sky's the limit for wrestlers. I mean, look at Seth Rollins, he technically achieved more than Ambrose, yet he still has the biggest match of his career...
