There's also the fact that when Roman was in NXT his character was basically a parody of every arrogant 'blue chip' hand picked superstar. Being too busy making phone calls to do interviews, bullying ring announcers to give him special treatment, just a complete spoiled prick who was too good for this poo poo.

If that were his character I'd probably be more entertained by him.

I can't screengrab it, but Metsfan came out with this classic a few days ago. quote:I recently inquired as to why more / all episodes of WCW Monday Nitro have no been put on the WWE Network. I was told by a friend that works for the company is because WWE does not want to bring any more attention to WCW. My source has said WWE does not feel WCW is worthy of being broadcast on the Network. WWE feels WCW was a much better product during 1997 and thus we will not be seeing more Nitro any time soon on the Network. Even the people in that thread are like 'Come on now, you're being dumb'.

"Breaking: Mark Henry and Seth Rollins meeting backstage, future tag team? by MetsFan4Ever One of my sources inside the WWE told me that Mark Henry and Seth Rollins had a meeting yesterday. I'm told by someone very reliable that Mark asked Seth "are there were any burgers left at the cafeteria?" and Seth said "yeah, there were a bunch left when I was there a moment ago". Mark said "awesome" and left. My source tells me that this is probably going to lead to a tag-team, culminating in a tag-title match at Summerslam with Rollins forfeiting his Money in the Bank briefcase. Of course, this might not actually happen and things always change in the WWE, but remember who told you first if it does."

I like that the three people in the debate were HHH and smark pantomime villains Vince and Dunn. I wonder which of the 3 could have been the one in favour of this. He really is gaslighting for HHH.

In all fairness, those are the three people (plus Stephanie, I reckon) who would be at the level of discussing that. But yeah, he's blatantly doing the "I'm hedging every bet" deal at this point. I just hope he goes all in, makes a post listing every single possible outcome for WrestleMania and edits out the ones that don't happen as the event goes on. That way, after the show, he can go I CALLED THEM ALL.

My favorite part of that wasn't anything he said, so much as the entire giant thing makes it sound like the dedication would be a big deal, possibly controversial, and then at the end it's like 'I'm actually just talking about whether they'd play a tiny graphic at the start of the show' well loving wow

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if JBL mentioned it, shouting out to recently deceased wrestlers is kinda his thing. An entire tribute graphic seems like a bit much for a guy who never had anything to do with WWE.

I can't think of a way to give a "shout out" to a recently deceased wrestler during a Raw segment that wouldn't be really jarring. I tend to tune out the announcing though.

Who was the announcer that stayed kayfabe all though reminiscing about some wrestler that had passed? I want to say it was Brain on WCW, but all I remember was something like "I'd say something but out of respect for his family I'll keep my mouth shut..."

A tribute graphic really isn't a big deal to do, and it's a nice gesture towards the Mexican market where WWE has been trying to expand for ages. Not to mention it is a good thing to do for a company who has been under fire for racism & such lately.

Showing some solidarity and compassion for a wrestler in another organisation who passed is way too classy for the WWE and it won't happen because they have an image to maintain.

Unless Vince's PTSD around the term 'Junior' kicks in.

How the gently caress would you even fill out two 30-men matches on the same card? Would J&J and the Rosebuds have to pull double-duty?
