Reigns sounded like a moron in that promo. Talk that noise? lol. Who writes that shit?

Bray was awesome, as always. Most entertaining promos in a long, long time.

you just aren't privy to the hip lingo the young go hards are using.
It didn't suit him, sounded forced. Worse than that babygurl shit a couple weeks back. I was criticizing the delivery more than the writing. It would've been fine if the Rock said it, but Reigns ain't no Rock. Reigns, to me, verges on John Morrison bad on the mic. Other people seem to tolerate him, though.

Babygirl was hilarious. His delivery fell flat on the noise line, but it wasn't anything that detracted from the segment IMO. He could be given the Cesaro yodelling gimmick and still come off like a badass

I agree, I'm just saying his mic work meshes very disappointingly with his overall aura. For a guy with that kind of charisma, you just expect more. Goldberg could get away with growling and shit, but it's harder to buy Reigns as charming or cocky. To me, at least.

Reigns being charming is an easy sell to me :tyson:

You say that but I'm sure if he called you babygirl, you'd need a new set of panties :true:

Glad everyone is getting behind the Wyatts in the upper deck of WWE. I been marking for them since NXT.

And I just wanted to add that even if Reign's comment was a little forced or flat or whatever, he looked like such a badass when he said it IMO.

I thought a similar thing, especially when Bray uttered the line "...funny you should say that, we were just thinking the same thing" in response to The Shield throwing down a challenge for them to come down to the ring and fight.

IMO, all the greatest heroes and villains in wrestling would make for great and interesting movie characters. Imagine Vince McMahon as the evil boss/owner of some type of evil empire or criminal organization or something. Imagine The Rock as his natural self (silk shirt, shades, referring to himself in the 3rd person and all.) Imagine Stone Cold as the bad ass hero. Imagine Undertaker as an actual mortician/supernatural phenom who was virtually invincible and actually buried people alive and stuff. Imagine Kane and Bray Wyatt as mentally scarred/demented characters. Etc., etc. You could make an entire movie over all of these guys.

It's cute how protective people are of Reigns, lol. Now I sound like a hater. It was just one little comment I made, didn't mean to derail the thread. I like the dude, really... And the segment was awesome, so...

I can't wait for the inevitable backlash that comes with how much support he has + the push he will get. I will revel in it.

Hey if my wife (who HATES watching wrestling btw) can get into watching him then thats whats best for business. To me that means he will be able to bring in new fans which means more $$$ for WWE. No brainer.
