The big question on any Cena proposal is why Wrestlemania, shouldn't contract signings be done on the go home show?

I know this is a joke but the Cena proposal is probably going to be the only notable thing that happens at Wrestlemania that is notable for being a good thing. As opposed to all of the other notable Wrestlemania Moments which will only be notable for how awful and tone deaf they are.

I like Enzo. He's tailor made to run his mouth, get beat up, and get Cass the hot tag. He hasn't always been given the best backstage stuff but I think he's great at cutting short promos in the ring before matches. He's got a little mainstream appeal lately thanks to his shoe game. He came into NXT with zero wrestling experience, so I cut him a little slack when he screws up. Anyway, thanks for reading.

Enzo was better when he was doing new material each week. Instead now he kinda retreads everything, especially "cuppa haters" which really makes his shtick wear thin. Sheamus and Cesaro are also a million times better, so it's hard to cheer for Enzo and Cass when there's an infinitely better team right there.

I have a feeling Enzo is told to just stick to his catchphrases and it seems like Cass puts less effort into sawft every time I see him.

You're telling me WWE picked a perfectly good wrestler that got over with their own schtick and then hosed it all up, making them look like unredeemable garbage in the process? Say it ain't so.

She was supposed to be marrying Test but Triple H interrupted and showed the video of her supposedly drugged and marrying him in Vegas. Then she turned on Vince at Armageddon and showed she was in on it the whole time. That started the McMahon-Helmsley Era stuff.

WrestleMania III took place exactly 30 years ago today. My favorite tidbit: quote:Howard Finkel, ring announcer and WWE Hall of Famer: I blurted out in a meeting in 1984, ‘There was Beatlemania, why can’t we have WrestleMania?’ And that was basically it.

I feel like this needs to be said every time some one has always been bad, but has anyone ever thought hmmmm maybe the booking is bad? Class and Enzo aren't great workers but they can get it done in the ring. Maybe it's that they never have any sort of real angle going on and are given dumb garbage to do. I know wwe are great at booking and they rarely ever gently caress up but it's just a thought.

And yeah sometimes easy botches happen. Why were they doing fine in NXT and having pretty decent to good matches on a consistent basis there?

I know I said earlier that Finkel's quote about him coming up with the name WrestleMania was my favorite but that was before getting to the part where Steamboat breaks down how he and Savage planned their match. Good stuff.

I've seen veteran wrestlers gently caress up moves all the time. If you can only point out two botches from Enzo, one from over a year ago. That's clearly not that bad.

Raskolnikov38 posted:that botch with cesaro was like infinitely bad tho Yeah but poo poo happens. Matt Sydal is one of the most crisp wrestlers around and dude broke his leg doing a simple dive. Sami zayn was out for 6 months for putting his hands in the air. Like it's wrestling. Botches happen. Maybe I'm easier on botches than most people but seriously you guys get pretty ridiculous on this stuff.

I know wwe are great at booking and they rarely ever gently caress up but it's just a thought. I've said it before, but part of the problem is the format. In NXT they didn't have a 5-minute promo every week, so they didn't run through their good material so quickly and get people tired of their catchphrases. But hey, you've got to fill 3 hours, and everyone has to be on the show every week! (It's not just length, though -- WWE has shown they can't even put a one-hour show together without plenty of filler and repetition. Rotating guys off of television for a few months each year would really help with overexposure and burnout though.)

Rotating guys in and out is a thing that it feels like people have been saying forever but logically has zero reason to ever happen because you'd be asking wrestlers to take a significant pay cut.
