Jack Swagger

[LadyHotrod]

I think that it was too soon for him to win it. I'd say that he should've won it next year. Right now I don't think that people care enough about him to move him up to the top of the card.

I slightly agree with you (particularly the caring part). This would have been better if they kept up with his previous push. Once that push came to a sudden end, he kinda disappeared for a while and people forgot he existed. Now, people are just going to complain that he won.

^^^He can make everyone care by being the first one out to cut a promo and say he's more important than John Cena...heat ensues

 

[LadyHotrod]

Heel vs. Heel feuds suck. There's only 2 I know of that met moderate success, HBK/Rick Martel in 1992 and Orton/Sheanus this year.

I fucking LOVED the HBK/Model feud. Holy shit, that SummerSlam was loaded with lulz.

DON'T HIT IN THE FACE.

I have to say, that was sily the biggest suprise of Wrestlemania.... Hell the biggest suprise in the last 3-4 years tbh. It was almost a forgone conclusion that Christan was going to get the briefcase. When Swagger won I marked out like a bitch.

This is the type of stuff the WWE needs to do more often. Things that *gasp* aren't seen from a mile away. I am now interested to see how the execute his "Mr. Money In The Bank" push.

That and Sheamus winning the belt from Cena were pretty big shocks for me.

I love it when they go in that direction but they need to do it way more often. They have managed to throw a few cool things out that weren't expected but it's just not enough. I want new people in the picture and Swagger is a good addition to the fresh feel.

 

[straight_edge76]

Yeah dude, I love it when an unexpected swerve happens and you are legitimately suprised, Sheamus winning, Swagger winning were really the only two huge suprises in recent memory.

The WWE needs to do that way more often, for much of the last 3-4 years have been predictable to a t. Things like this are what keeps the product from becoming overly stale. Sure here and there a few unexpected things happen but very rarely do they go against the grain.

Swagger winning was awesome because I didn't have to sit through a BOOORRRRIIINNNGGGGG celebration of Drew McIntyre

 

[JurassicBonez]

^ I used to be the biggest Swagger mark around. This is a big deal to me

lol. I remember those times. Peeps used to tell you to shut the fuck up about Swagger cause you'd bring him up in almost everyone one of your wrestling post. Good times. Good times.

As far as Swagger winning, that was a huge shock. But there's going to be a time when someone wins the MitB case and doesn't win the title, Swagger maybe the one. At least at the state he's at now. With some building back up, I can see him winning a world title but not now. This is the same guy that couldn't beat Santino remember. I like the tease they did on Raw too. But they can't do that everyweek.

 

[straight_edge76]

I also remember MM3000's Swagger mark days lol.

The Swagger tease on Raw was just like the whole Punk/Umaga feud last year. Personally I am all for Swagger winning a world title. But I wouldn''t be suprised one bit if he was the guy the picked to lose his MitB match. Which at this current time is very possible. However a well booked Cena/Swagger program would be pretty good imo. The match/promo that they had during the draft last year was pretty good.

 

[xtremebadass]

Swagger's 2 minute long struggle getting the briefcase down was funny as hell. That could only happen to a guy like Jack Swagger. I fear that Swagger might be the first guy to cash in and not win. How can you go from Santino/Chris Masters level one night to main event status the next? It just puzzles me. I am all for Swagger getting the strap finally because WWE, even with pushing Drew and Sheamus, still needs more new talent at the top. Swagger could, should, and hopefully will be that guy. A feud with Cena could do wonders for him.

 

[MizMasta3000]

I was like "nooooooo" when he was about to cash it in lol

 

[xtremebadass]

I was like "nooooooo" when he was about to cash it in lol

I sat up on the couch and turned the TV way up thinking "HERE WE GO! ANOTHER SHORT ASS WWE TITLE REIGN!"

It would have went from Sheamus to Cena to Batista to Cena to Swagger in a little over a month lol

Swagger was my 2nd favorite pick to win so it's better than 8 of the other guys. The guy is awesome. He knows how to work his cocky "All American American" gimmick and he's one of the few guys who is technical. But Christian needs to get in the main event and honestly it might not happen. Hopefully he wins the MITB at it's respective PPV.

 

[straight_edge76]

After Swagger won honestly I started to think that Christan may never get that World Title run that we all have been speculating about ever since he came back. Which is a damn shame, I would have loved to see Christan as world champion. But those 3 years or so he spent with TNA have obviously altered his carrer.

 

[noumenon]

I'm glad to see the renewed Swagger push. His move to RAW and stint as a jobber was seriously baffling as he seemed a lock to be one of Vince's golden boys to usher in the new era of WWE. Hopefully his push goes a little smoother than him unhooking than briefcase huh?
