New Day isn't going to be less interesting without the titles. They're just keeping them so they can beat a record because WWE is petty and the current record holders are suing them. Seeing New Day actually have to chase for the belts again because they finally got beaten at their own game, be it a numbers game, or outright cheating, would be a good story, but instead we have to go through the bullet points of every New Day promo (topical reference, WWE WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, booty os, BECAUSE!!!!!) before they inexplicably win a title match against a team who needs the win more.

Vaguido posted:There's something I find amusing about how much everyone (including myself) likes Smackdown. The non wrestling segments on Raw were all really bad, and made the show very tedious to watch. Smackdown had 3 loving matches, and the whole show was all good and enjoyable to watch, with the exception of the Bray bit, which I liked, but other people don't seem to be sold on it. Once Ziggler, Big Show, Kane, and maybe Sheamus are gone, Bray will be the new "ugh just go away. I don't care if you just had a good match/promo, GET OFF MY SCREEN" guy that a few people here and there will defend. I don't like face New Day, like 75% of their charm was being unapologetic self-serving trolls. I hope they get one more heel run before dropping the belts to Enzo and Cass. I never liked the "This guy is getting too popular, he HAS to be a face" thing. Like I get it, you don't want the crowd cheering the bad guy, but sometimes a bad guy is just good at his job. I don't want poo poo like The Joker teaming up with Batman just cause too many people like The Joker.

They've even lost feuds against The League of Nations and The Wyatts and still held onto the belts. Personally I can deal with it until Royal Rumble 17 or so, I just hope they don't feud with The Shining Stars after Sheasaro... The Swissceltic Warrio... whatever you call that team.

Just realized it'd be kinda neat if Cesaro took the titles from The New Day since he gave it to them in the 1st place. Last retribution for Tyson Kidd. Speaking of which, a Cesaro/Samoa Joe feud would be fire.

Wrestling is at its best when laughed at/with when you are with a group of friends. The same was true when we were younger fans. That's why PPVs and specials are the only things I mess with. Hard to get a crew to sit through a three hour Raw.

The WWE fan pyramid: Smiling positive face is booed for being boring Face turns heel and does develops and edge, becomes beloved and cheered by fans. Heel turns face because they're being cheered by all the fans. Face gets overexposed and is booed for being stale and boring.

super macho dude posted:what do you mean YOU PEOPLE!? What do YOU mean YOU PEOPLE? I still find that movie funny I liked New Day better as heels but they get people chanting along and are generally better than most of the other tag teams around so let them beat the record. Hell half of the only reason Raw crowds wake up at all is New Day and E&C waking them up. Yeah its WWE pettiness, but this is more than likely Kofi's final big moment. Before this he was going to be "he has nice moments in the rumble" but now he will be "the longest and most successful tag partner in WWE". Any of you guys know long till he retires? Still wish the Club had taken them off the shelf for a bit with a worked injury angle but as they used to get a nice reaction but what can you do? Let New Day break the record then lose the titles to some new heel tag team that can setup Enzo and Cass finally getting a run. I still hope that two or three of the cruisers form a team as that could make the tag division a ton of fun and establish them outside the cruiserweight belt and stigma. Make another London and Kendrick and let them go be heels. Would also bring some more substance to the cruiserweight division if our collective cynicism is off mark. Raw needs more tag teams anyway unless they make Cesaro and Shaemus both heels. Still think most of the problem with Raw is a McMahon. Steph is alright in doses but she's so oppressive. This unrelenting and constant force that just never lets up and can never be overcome. Plus, seeing Foley grovel is just sad. We all loved Foley and he's obviously having issues with his brain. Its like seeing some rich wanker mock some special needs kid. Reminds me of a hearing I saw with Martin Shkreli where these American government types are pleading the guy to lower prices as peoples lives depended on access to his medication that he arbitrarily raised the price of several hundred percent. One senator (?) had this earnest look as said he believed that Shreli was a decent person and would do the humane thing.... cut to Shkreli just rolling his eyes and smirking. Its like an entire show around that guy but this time he runs things and thus will never ever go away until he gets bored for a bit. Vickie had a similar evil authority role as did Vince but, as many have said, they are poo poo many times. Steph won't. Just a bit depressing. On to happier WWE things: Jericho and KO are golden every moment they are on screen, The Brian Kendrick is back, New Day and Enzo and Cass wake up the crowds, Smackdown is almost completely superb and Miz has reached his peak and will hopefully remove Dolph Ziggler, fan of Megadeath, from our screens forever. God save the Miz and his SuperDad! edit: also you guys make WWE better. Not sarcasm. You guys always manage to spot nice things and make me grin. RHL, Chris James 2, Foochs, Oat, BGL, KFG, Brock Lesbian, Bard Maddox... you guys keep me smiling when it comes to WWE. Its always a pleasure to be RIGHT HERE!

I was both worried and excited when Dolph real-named Miz. Sometimes that poo poo can be lame (this is Phil Brooks talking to Paul Levesque!) but I bought it last night. And Miz going full vulture when he realized he could end Dolph's career was killer. I might be more interested in this story (and the overall renaissance of the Miz) than the world title, which is also awesome right now. edit: also, no Kane. A++
