With Baron Corbin as RAW GM how do you feel about it. To me this is... The Dumbest Ass Bullshittiest Unthought--out decision in recent memory.

This pissed me off to the extreme! To choose an Annoying Boring ass man who reminds me of a corn stalk with his body frame, over an Olympic Gold Medalist Hall of Famer is Ridiculous! To me RAW ratings will plummet. All he is gonna do is make Balor's life hell, put all the faces in controversial matches like handicap, and so much other Tyrant BS. There will be nothing interesting.

What they should have done is make Heyman the GM because Lesnar is gone. And if he tries to come back they should do a story on how Heyman don't need him anymore.

But this is like a thousand steps back. How do you guys feel?

I mean if Brock is taking a break, why not let Heyman do it? I don't understand using Corbin as a GM at all. It has little appeal to it.

This is pure nonsense Paul Heyman appeals both to the face and heel. They lost a huge opportunity, they could have had a tweener GM.

This is gonna be The Great Depression of RAW

I get why Stephanie brought him in storyline wise, but from an entertainment point of view is kind of unfortunate. Even though Baron Corbin's character hasn't been the worst from what I can see, since he acts like the bully who also sucks up to the teacher, but it also points to the evil Authority figure archetype being played again when we are still recovering from the Authority angle from a few years ago. It over-shadows the wrestlers and makes the storylines more frustrating. What Smackdown seemingly has right now over Raw is Paige as a GM, well, acts like a regular boss. She doesn't overshadow the main storylines and she fills in when is needed. Shane hasn't been on Smackdown much if at all over the past while because, once again, he's not needed, and now the storylines have a focus on the competitors. That is what I've felt has been missing from Raw for a few years, a clear break from "Evil Authority members!"

Yes exactly! We are still with this "Evil Authority" Tyrant angle... To me it feels they can't make a story without an evil Authority member like figure around...

But if you want to put an Authority like figure around let it be Triple H he makes more sense. He, Angle, Steph, and Rousey have history

Corbin is about exciting as watching the BBC Parliment channel discussing the latest initiative over fucking plastic. He's a crap wrestler as well and literally sounds like he's bored when giving promos

Truly I hope something crazy happens like Roman spear his ass off the stage. Or Braun does a power slam on him and they go through the stage.

I love it. I don't get the hate for Corbin. He's good on the mic, smooth in the ring, and has a punchable face. All you need to have a good heel

Corbin's promo on the draft center 2016 and when he won the US championship are two examples of really good promo's.
