Wrestling Thread 3: Dan vs. Cam • Page 489

I feel like they were just doing a campaign ad for Roman Reigns there, rather than actually providing a good commentary.

 

what the fuck with the bliss 'sexist' promo? Why didn't she come out LAST WEEK when STEPHANIE made the announcement? My biggest complaint was that the heel champion didnt care when it was announced she was gonna have to defend her title in the chamber.

But a week later she comes out claiming its cause Angle is sexist... and then they kinda just glance over the fact she hasn't defended the title in 5 months (only wrestled twice in total). Umm doesn't that mean she should drop the belt...what happened to that clause?


and they kinda just elimiated the suspense of who asuka is gonna wrestle?

 

Even simpler drop in kayfabe, Shinsuke has already challenged AJ. RAW needs a #1 contender for WM against Brock. Asuka hasnt decided, so its reasonable to make both champions defend their belts until she does (and in fact, Steph put that in her promo last week...that Asuka should wait).

They didnt even have to drop the "you havent defended" line

 

This shirt is dope

 

uh...they gonna have Roman rock both belts?

That'd actually be interesting

 

are you fucking serious

 

This is just one giant Roman promo tonight.

 

Romans gonna announce he’s entering the women’s chamber match too. Going for all the belts

 

What other belt would he have?

 

Cruiserweight belt

 

If they win tonight does that mean seth just doesnt show up on the ppv?

 

Nia getting jobber matches a year and a half into her main roster time.

 

loved the ending of the tag match... nia squashing is fine by me... and i like the alexa saving mickie stuff

 

So Seth is doing .... nothing ......

 

^ wow im shocked. I admit, what is Seth doing at chamber and mania for that matter. Are they still holding out that Jordan's injury is gonna get better?

 

lol holy fuck who would have thought when he debuted that Elias would go over Cena...hell, that he'd actually be in a feud with Cena (as a replacement for Samoa Joe)

 

alright, I've honestly never been sold on Braun as a top babyface(in kayfabe), but he showed some character there that shows how goddamn over he is

 

It buried the US Title on Rollins.

 

Imagine how fun these storylines would all be if Brock wasnt champ and Roman wasnt inevitably facing him at WM

RAW has a half dozen guys who need a good title chase and cant get it

 

what helps elias is his size/physique. what couldve been a silly jobber gimmick, with his size, he could be a fairly decent player for years to come

 

And if you give him a few midcard title runs, he's basically the Miz. Perfect heat magnet for any face feud, yet also compelling against any opponent.

He and Alexa Bliss are really shining examples of how little work rate matter if you have a big enough character

 

Whats the deal with the whole booker and graves situation

 

Some interesting tweets from Cody. First one is about Vince holding people back. Second tweet #5 is about Punk. Apparently it’s what you nerds have been saying, that punk being on the show will just be punk being there, not really telling of their ability to sell out the arena.

 

puuuuuuuuuuuuuke. might as well have nia interfere in the chamber match first

no no no no no. that is not a good thing. also did you just compare alexa bliss and miz? (lol) or elias?

regardless, in the coming months I think you'll see people really start turning on alexa. It's already begun a little bit. She flat out can't work like the top tier of girls on the roster, and (as i said in the spoiler thread) can't bump or sell for shit. She's skirted by for a long time on facial expressions, sex appeal & her character work. But now she's on the cusp of one of the biggest mania matches for the women (and a garbage one at that)... I mean all you guys that talked about "deserving" spots with Ronda - that's one worth mentioning, for both of those women.
