    Bray Wyatt's next feud?

    It did last year, yes. The entire fan-base was firmly behind Bryan and everyone was expecting him to defeat Wyatt at the Rumble and get his revenge, but instead Wyatt picked up the clean victory with no help from outside interference on the part of Rowan and Harper and we were treated to a rare...

    Bray Wyatt's next feud?

    People didn't care when he was obtaining clean victories over Daniel Bryan and (along with Harper and Rowan) The Shield in back-to-back PPV matches last year? Or when he was getting a prodigious amount of cheers during the Cena feud? People still care about Bray, he just needs to start winning...

    WWE Now Giving Letter Grades To Each City They Run In - A, B+, B And C Cities Revealed

    Um, I thought they've always done this. Hence why back in the day (Hogan's day), they would run separate house show circuits that they referred to as the A tour, the B tour, and the C tour. Or why even now they run two separate house shows that they refer to as the A Crew and the B Crew, the...

    Should The Miz Be Forced To Become Sandow's Manservant?

    Nothing hypocritical about it. It's me finding one thing funny and another thing not. Toilet humor is generally thought of as anything having to do with poop or fart jokes, and those have nothing to do with dick jokes. And for what it's worth, I'm not even a big fan of dick jokes, it's just that...

    Bray Wyatt's next feud?

    Just your customary Wyatt promo where he could be referring to literally anybody. Ryback is probably the most ideal choice since he doesn't have anything going on and isn't currently on their list of people they want to protect, so him jobbing to Wyatt shouldn't be a problem. Then again, maybe...

    Should The Miz Be Forced To Become Sandow's Manservant?

    Rikishi's stink face was toilet humor, and toilet humor pretty much rests at the bottom of the list of things I find funny. I don't give a toss how over the move was. I agree it deserved a spot on the Wrestlemania card, but I also believe the card was already stacked enough as it was and even...

    Should The Miz Be Forced To Become Sandow's Manservant?

    There's always been cheesy shit that's went on in WWE. I have my own preferences as well as my own limits to how much cringe I can take, of course, but I can certainly tolerate what Miz and Sandow are doing far better than I can things like Natalya's ridiculous farting gimmick, Rikishi shoving...

    Seth Informed of Winining Title during WM.

    The thing is, the build-up didn't have to be as mundane or humdrum (or just damn near non-existent) for Lesnar vs Reigns as much as it was either. Even with a previously-thought-to-be foreseeable outcome, they could have done a lot more to get people more intrigued and invested in the match than...

    Should The Miz Be Forced To Become Sandow's Manservant?

    Who wouldn't love to be able to wield complete control over their enemies?
  10. The GOAT

    Seth Informed of Winining Title during WM.

    Really? I seem to remember him getting a pretty good reaction that night. Although to go along the lines of what Stop mentioned, he did start getting the sporadic weak reaction here and there at certain times last year (as an example, I re-watched the Battleground main event the other day and it...
  11. The GOAT

    Seth Informed of Winining Title during WM.

    Unpredictability has always been a huge asset, but what I mean is that even if the outcome of something is fairly obvious, it can still draw huge money as long as people are invested in seeing that specific outcome play out. It was obvious that Batista was winning the WHC from HHH at WM21. It...

    Should The Miz Be Forced To Become Sandow's Manservant?

    I've been thinking of a way to milk as much out of this angle as possible before setting The Miz and Sandow off onto their own separate paths for good, so here's a decent if a bit predictable of an idea - The Miz should somehow be forced to become Sandow's servant for a certain duration of time...
  13. The GOAT

    Seth Informed of Winining Title during WM.

    Predictability has never seemed to matter before. I also question just how many people were aware of the plans to have him beat Lesnar for the title since it's not as if everyone reads dirtsheets. I think the obvious blame goes to Daniel Bryan and the fact that people are just far more invested...

    During the Ruthless Aggression Era, do you think Smackdown! was overrated as a brand show by fans?

    Not overrated at all in my book. Whether you think it was better than Raw was at the time or not, it was still an excellent show well worth all the praise that it gets (and I'm mainly referring to Paul Heyman's Smackdown, circa 2002-2003, since you mentioned "near the beginning of the brand...

    What Eva Marie has been up to

    Not entirely. She like the majority of heels (or unlikable people in general) just has something about her personality that annoys and antagonizes people, regardless of talent. I'd say people criticizing her for her lack of talent is the typical case of just trying to find logical, non-emotional...

    WWE Presence On ESPN Under Increasing Scrutiny

    Well, he IS right in a sense. WWE is character driven, storyline driven, and the direction and fate of everyone involved is guided by the powers that be behind the camera, just like with any other fictional television show. No one is actually going out there and winning or losing a match for...

    WWE Presence On ESPN Under Increasing Scrutiny

    A Sport is typically defined and thought of as a legitimate competition between athletes, regardless of what the specific definition in the dictionary states. But then again, I also realize that the meanings of most words in the dictionary are flexible so I admit it's almost a moot point to...

    DirecTV Reportedly In Negotiations with WWE Over Pay-Per-View Events

    Still a weird, albeit interesting business strategy, telling your paying customers how big of idiots they are for putting more money into your pockets than they have to. I realize the goal is to draw as many folks to the Network as possible so that it becomes the long-term success that they need...
