I know I haven't been on here in quite awhile, been busy as fuck with shit in my life but somehow and for some reason I have been watching wrestling still. But that's seriously going to change now, I'm done with WWE. Yes, I only said the WWE. It's a straight fact that Impact has finally turned around and it's fucking evolved. It's the only thing keeping wrestling alive for me at this point and while I've never been a hater of TNA(defended it more than a few times) but not until now I never once ever hailed it as superior than the WWE but I do now because it's so fucking true but I'll save my stance on TNA/Impact Wrestling for later and this is about all I'll say for now about comparing WWE/TNA and I'll get on with my rant strictly about the WWE because I need to get all this bullshit of my chest.
As you in can see in the title, the WWE has fucking buried itself. None of the fucking titles mean anything. Maybe the World title means a little because Sheamus is one of the few guys in the company who isn't a joke and Del Rio's push is one of the only things being done right but then again it hardly means much since Bryan jobbed and lost the belt in 18 seconds or whatever. The WWE title which is supposed to be the most prestigious belt has been buried hard.
We have gone from a pretty great feud between Punk/Jericho and an awesome Punk/Bryan match a few months ago to a fucking diva in the middle of your top feud in the fucking company.....AJ has effectively buried the WWE championship, Kane, Daniel Bryan and CM Punk all in one go. Bryan and Punk had momentum and this bullshit happens. This stupid bitch comes prancing down the ring in the MIDDLE of a big match like it's no big deal and distracts everyone. Bryan has gone from trying to win the title and being awesome months ago when he had AJ in her place and now he's a desperate loser who is trying so hard to win over this 70 pound chick like she is actually a threat in anyway.
Now, Kane always goes through bullshit. He got buried by Cena and Orton but at least they were attempting to bring the monster back in him and he had a huge win over Orton at Mania. Now after all that talk and hype about getting back to what he wants to be, he lets some diva get between him and getting gold back? and he's pretty much already back to being a face leaving his whole turn fucking pointless. Kane/Sheamus could have been a great feud but now there's probably no chance of that happening.
After months of being away, Christian comes back wins the IC belt and within his first month back gets a lot of momentum and two months later he's already suffered what four losses? I can't really complain about Rhodes winning because Rhodes is one of the few guys they haven't fucked up royally but it didn't make much of any sense, he goes from losing to Christian clean twice to getting a clean victory soon after to quality for the MITB? Whatever but besides that...Christian randomly jobbed to Del Rio because he threw a bitch fit backstage, he got pinned by Ziggler after he beat him like the week before in a singles match and he gets squashed by Tensai when Santino obviously should have been the victim. So there goes any and all momentum for the IC belt and Christian.
Santino is US champion and has buried the title, hardly ever defends it and he's still a complete fucking joke. He hasn't been entertaining or funny in any way since like 2010. Swagger who is a fucking workhorse gets brutally buried by Santino and Swagger is back to being a complete fucking jobber. I've always been on high on him and he has a shit load of talent all around imo but even for anyone who isn't his biggest fans know he was a good workhorse, has great in ring ability, he was solid midcard and he could at least be of benefit towards the mid card over all but within not even two months he's all the back down to fucking Drew McIntrye status.
In regards to Drew it's a pretty similar situation with my feelings and overall. He's obviously been a jobber for quite a while now and they haven't attempted to fuck all with him since 2009 or maybe 2010 I don't even remember. He had that storyline last year that had zero follow up or push what so ever and really they basically were telling you and showing how he is a jobber during that storyline. But the guy has talent now, I'm not as high on him as I am Swagger but he was a pretty damn good IC champion years ago and he had potential when he the whole chosen one gimmick. You buried the fuck out of this guy so why not even try to turn him face? At least attempt it, if any effort is actually giving towards doing so I bet he could get over, same with Swagger if they tried turning him face. Why not at this point?
The entire fucking roster besides a few lucky people isn't and in a lot of cases hasn't been used right. Seriously, there is so much talent on the roster. Even guys like Slater and Magnus(TNA example but still) these are two guys who you couldn't see zero potential in them until they attempted to do anything with them. We wouldn't have known Slater really isn't that bad on the mic(he's actually pretty solid and has been one of the only entertaining things going on lately) because he never got any mic time before, he just jobbed and that was it.
You got Alex Riley who could and should be a great babyface midcard guy but he's a jobber, Hawkins who could get over as face or heel, Jackson who is alright and definitely could go back to being an intimidating heel, Hunico who is a solid workhorse but only gets used to make Cara look good, Gabriel who could be a great crusierweight champ if they had the division, Joe Hennig not Michael McGullicutty who is still caring that curse of a terrible name, Ryder who used to be over huge and is still decently over and they buried the fuck out of him, Tatsu could be a nice cruserweight champ or work with Santino, Reks who is decent enough all around and might even have some potential if he wasn't just used on NXT or superstars, DiBiase who has a great look and has always had potential and still hasn't got much of an attempt to do much of anything, etc, etc
Basically, almost the whole roster isn't used right and obviously it would be hard to use most of the roster correctly but at least attempt to do something or anything with as many superstars as you can but that just doesn't happen. It's great to see them actually attempt something now shockingly enough with Kidd but there is zero consistency and everything is half assed so unfortunately because Kidd has a lot of potential, soon enough they will give up on him because it's been a month and he isn't over yet.....
Miz has gone from one of the top stars to a complete jobber and is over due for a face turn at this point, hopefully maybe they might actually go that route when he returns but I have zero faith in the WWE doing anything right anymore. Ziggler is READY to be a top guy and still isn't there yet. Regal, one of the most experienced and respected veterans can't even get to wrestle on TV anymore and instead jobs at house shows and NXT. Tensai who has looked real good in his matches recently but who knows where any/if at all the direction they are going with him.
The tag division and divas division is still fucked. I'm digging the pushes for Layla and Primetime Players but that's about the only thing going right in those division. We have still have what like 4 tag teams? When we could easily add Gabriel/Bourne, Reks/Hawkins, Santino/Tatsu, Riley/Ryder, McIntrye/Swagger and more all to the division. Even one of the few real tag teams(Usos) still haven't had done anything put over all the other teams when they could be great face/heel tag champions.
To sum up the divas division quickly, Beth has lost most of her credibility, Natalya could be a top face or heel but doesn't do anything, Fox wrestles on like superstars only, same thing with Kaitlyn when she could be a top face diva for the division, Kelly one of the their only draws in the division is taking a break for who knows how long, Kharma isn't back though everyone wants her to be and a lot of the divas are leaving because they are sick of not being used right and how poorly treated the division is. It started with Maryse who seriously was a big loss for the division but now the Bellas and Maxine are gone with most likely more to join. Maxine had a lot of potential too, has the perfect diva look, solid enough in the ring and could actually cut a promo but nope she's out of there.
Now to finish all this shit up with everyone/everything else.....Cena goes from a terrible match and huge loss to Rock to destroying Lesnar, jobbing to Ace, beating Show, going from being serious one month back to the annoying PG posterboy the next and with the help of AJ effectively burying the WWE and World titles by always having his match main event all PPV's(Even Cena/Ace). Everybody knows he's the most stale guy on the roster but fucking christ man.....all that hype and build up for the last Mania only to result in a awful match with Rock(which was Rock's fault for apparently doing fuck all to train for the biggest match of the year) but hey guys like Bryan, Punk, Aries, etc still could have got so much more out of him.
Just when you start to think maybe Show will get that big push, he loses to Cena and becomes a joke again after all that talk, Ryback is a poor man's Goldberg but he's alright, Clay needs to continue to be more serious during his matches, and honestly I can't take even Jericho seriously anymore because you know he's just putting everyone over.
Rant done. I know it's a long ass post and not the most structured discussion but any and all replies is welcome. I'll try to reply back too but this was pretty much just my rant on all this bullshit and I'm seriously done watching WWE after the 1000th RAW and MITB.
