this dolph feud should've been preceded by trying to make crews and kalisto a tag team full of flips and wet stunts, and then dolph injures kalisto during the heel turn, boom, a good feud. instead, it's empty as hell and just dolph wolloping dorks with a chair for pops.
Also he shouldn't keep beating on them when people cheer for the chairshots. It's a heel's job to deprive the crowd of what they want.

I'm behind a Kalisto + Apollo team. They're literally undefeated in handicap matches. Braun better watch his back.

Was the Team Rocket version of Dolph actually good or was he just benefiting from the presence of AJ and Big E?

I will say that Dolph was red hot off the Sting survivor series. He looked like a loving iron man badass in that match. He went three on one plus Triple H and managed to pull out two pins until he just collapsed and Sting came out to make the save if I remember the finale right. I rewatched Royal Rumble 2015 tonight with my friend who wanted to laugh at Rock being boo'd, and Dolph's entrance at #30 almost blows the roof off the place.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.

Would they let Matt be Broken Matt Hardy for that?

It's either:

a) They'd just be the regular Hardys, because WWE didn't come up with the Broken gimmick

or

b) They'd come in as Broken Matt and Brother Nero, but have to listen to WWE on how to do the gimmick

Full time? Right now it's basically Roman because the smaller guys and flippy guys who they slot ahead of him keep injuring themselves

It's positioned as Roman, but realistically, it's Jericho. Sami's #4 behind Rollins (5 if you count Goldberg or Uncle Hunter after that loving ridiculous babyface promo he cut before Joe's debut)

Are you sure I'm winning the Rumble? That does'nt seem right.....
Apollo I think also suffers a bit from WWE forgetting that the crowd can like exciting spots, and being bad at actually pushing happy face characters.

Plus he hasn't had any good matches, or great opponents since call up. Feel free to correct me, but since call up he has feuded with the social outcasts, Sheamus, Miz and Dolph. None of whom I'd say elevate opponents.

Idk if this is heresy, but does anyone else find Rollins kinda boring? Face Rollins definitely is, I feel like. Even before he was injured, I didn't feel invested in his character/his story with the Authority at all.

If it comes down, budget-wise, to Matt or Galloway, I can see leaning towards the guy who could actually be a singles headliner for the next 5 years.

Probably not given that the majority of their fan base doesn't know what broken Matt Hardy is.
They just want their 90's nostalgia pop.

If they come in at or the day after Mania, they'd get drowned out by DELETE chants if they tried to do Team Extreme. It'd be like them bringing Nakamura in and wanting him to be a boring guy in black trunks who doesn't dance because that's what he was when he wrestled Brock.

Live crowds might know it though, I think there have been occasional delete chants on WWE tv. It still would be a weird thing to just introduce without explanation, so idk if you'd have to bring them back as part of an angle rather than as a surprise to kind of explain that they're weirdos now.
