    Agree on both points. Jericho is self explanatory - he should become a manager/commentator because duh. With Moxley he honestly just offers so little. Reigns is basically what Vince would design in a wrestling test tube. Seth Rollins is an elite wrestler with fantastic character range. Moxley...

    Jon Moxley is very overrated. Average worker, average look, and generic character. He was carried by Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns to superstardom and if not for them would be spending his career fighting in hardcore promotions in front of 50 people.

    Man decided to mock me for using "big words" and chose cheetodust over contrarian. :sodone

    It's almost like Meltzer's ratings have become a key part of wrestling discourse to the point where they regularly come up in wrestling discussions regardless of your view on them. But never mind me, feel free to go back to bashing out contrarian edgelord bullshit with those cheetodust fingers...

    I think it's crazy that everyone is willing to put so much stock in one guy's rating of matches as if he doesn't have his own biases and similar.

    [I should add that I do think D-Bry is one of the best in the world; I just think he's not in the discussion for the best.] ^Maybe that should have been my unpopular opinion all along, lol.

    Yeah we'll just have to disagree on this one. I thought the Planet's Champion felt incredibly forced and boring. Whereas I have found pretty much all versions of Seth other than company face Seth to be great. I think people underrated his ability on the mic because the failed face run still...

    He was successful as the Architect in the Nexus as a face. As I said, the top face is almost always doomed to fail, and tends to be forced into cheesy nonsense. D-Bry is a fantastic wrestler but I'm not sure he's as good a promo/charisma etc as people would have you believe. He is loved as an...

    He isn't a good wrestler. He is a great character worker though. I absolutely love the whole Fiend aesthetic and idea of a dominant super-human character.

    Yeah. They basically feel like budget Hardy Bros without interesting characters.

    The finisher thing is such an issue in WWE though. Back in the day someone kicking out of a finisher was a massive WTF moment that therefore held massive power as a narrative tool. Now we have matches like those Seth has been in where the question is 'how many times do I need to hit my finisher...

    I think she is meant to be slightly bitchy as part of her role. I think it gives her character more depth, and sort of reminds you that Nikki/Alexa could break up at any time. Don't agree with you on MJF at all but it's a personal taste thing so eh. Re: The Elite, I like Kenny too, but the...

    I agree with the finisher thing but that is definitely a WWE-thing, so I don't take marks off him from that. Haven't noticed anything significant with his selling but will keep an eye out now that you've mentioned it. When I say best in WWE and maybe best in the world I'm talking about the...

    Time to bump this because I need to get this off my chest: Sasha Banks is a poor mic worker. Everything she says has the exact same intonation and finishes off with a lazy slur at the end. It sounds forced and is incredibly annoying. It's unfortunate because she clearly has the charisma and...
