Sheamus' title reign, not enough Brock, Tensai, the Miz being on TV so much, 18 seconds!

18 seconds wasn't just a mistake, it was a DISASTER...A DISGRACE.

It's funny how he had it on the back of his trunks a while after he said that. :dawg:

I don't see the problem with Bryan losing in 18 seconds. They were obviously going for a Wrestlemania moment, and besides which, we got a great match the following month anyway. You could also argue that losing that fast got Bryan more over (I doubt this, he was already getting more and more over, but others disagree.)

Everyone read this post, like read it then reread it then memorize it. The 18 second thing wasn't the career ending disaster its made out to be.

He'd be more over if he crushed Sheamus in 18 seconds.

That was a good line by Punk, but I still found the delivery of Jericho's better.

Another negative would have to be AJ.
She was a positive as well in her own matter and really, she should be the breakout star of 2012 but the love/crazy storylines were kinda lame. See, each star in their own perspective had a rivalry and AJ was a small portion of it, I wouldn't mind it. But they made the whole thing revolve around her.

For example: Punk/Bryan, there focus is on the WWE Champion and each other and AJ is not getting any attention, she becomes the GM and they try to get on the good side of her. That would have been decent.

She had a good year, but she really shouldn't be involved in matches.

Any storyline involving John Cena due to the fact that it sucked the air out of every last one if his opponents momentum.

Prince Albert

AJ Lee

The lack of enough Layla TV time, can never get enough of that sexy ass woman.

The Ziggie man not being pushed until the end of the year.

Sheamus/Big Show

Not enough R-Truth

Biggest negative of 2012 was the complete burial and under utilization of all midcard talents, so much so the majority of them are completely stale. Hell, even a lot of mainevent talents are stale.

Oh and AJ.

Negative? Probably the lack of a good heel

Honestly, I believe that was the only thing the 'E had going for them in 2012. CM Punk is the best thing going right now.

even big show is okay

Agree to disagree. I don't know if CM Punk is a great heel. Certaintly good but his face run was much better.
