I noticed today that even though he's a heel and does lovely things, Cole must be under orders to not use any negative adjectives about him. It's always "confident", "decisive" etc. I'd bet my last dollar they will try to turn him face long before he gets beaten by anybody for that title.

lol remember when Nia Jax put Lana through a table every show for three months and the pay-off was Charlotte winning the tag belts with Asuka? What a dogshit company why doesn't anyone get over?

Does commentary ever point out that Roman is a giant weakling who would lose every match if not for his cousin?

the lovely fiddling with the keys in roman's theme makes it immensely forgettable. it's lesser than the scales that play in like minecraft or other games where they just go up and down the keyboard very slowly. but i'm sure those big beefy blowout sounds make people nostalgic for when important wrestlers all had that in the late 90s. true dogshit. - 8.5/10

Which, as they love to do, pretty much books them into a corner if neither of those two want to do a run with the title (and they don't), since they've devalued everyone else like they always do. This is what bothers me. If you’re saving a Roman loss to Rock or Brock, I’d hope you have that deadlocked instead of just hoping that they’ll come back for this match because that’s a lot of potential competitors Roman has to go through for this possible not possible matchup.

At least with Cena, he made up for tearing his pec with a huge PPV payday. Roman's not even gonna get him that.

They are family and the Rock got him a small role in his F&F spin-off blockbuster. I wouldn’t say the chances are nil BUT still... it’s a helluva ask. “Hey Cuz - come help me make money. I know you’ll probably get injured and your insurance will bitch and it benefits you NOTHING to come do a stint for a Trump allied war crimes machine full of nazis and paedos but it’ll help out my career.” <Sigh> “this is the last time Joey and YOU owe me.” “I promise.

The Rock is now 49 years old and hasn't had a match since 2016 IF we are being generous about that being a match. Otherwise, he hasn't had a match since 2013.

I'm pretty sure since he tore his pec and delayed shooting on a movie last time he "wrestled" no studio is gonna let him do that again.

It was hilarious last night to see McAfee was actually standing up and pacing because he was genuinely excited by seeing a good match, and then a while later you saw Cole standing up too but you knew it was fake.

Lethrom posted:Is the pattern that all the themes have been improved immensely? This is a hill I am willing to die on. The CFO$ themes were great. They are instantly recognizable, they are catchy, they are simple themes that someone can recognize if they came out in a Rumble. I could hum a few notes from them and you'd probably recognize what it is. All you need is like a chorus and a bridge for a wrestling theme to work. These Def Rebel song are trash for the most part. There are exceptions (like Io's theme, which is a banger, and I think Lashley's finally feels right). But all of them feel like these are cued to the entrances with some REALLY long intro, and then about 5 different verses that sound like different songs, all set so that someone can do some pose at a certain point when they are in the ring to their carefully choreographed entrance Can you identify the difference between Bayley, Seth's, and Baron Corbin's current themes from the intro? They're all lovely fake choire intros. How about if you throw Roman's theme in the mix? It's just such a long way from the Jim Johnston days where themes were recognizable within the first second. This is a perfect example. Just what the gently caress even is Xia Li's theme. I know she has a long entrance with a lot of pageantry, but like... can you hum any part of it? Does it get you hyped for her entrance? After a lengthy intro there are 3 or 4 totally different verses that sound like different songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKfm3pFzNcI What would they play if she came out at a Rumble? Can anyone identify Raquel Gonzalez's theme if they didn't put her name on the screen? She's the NXT Women's Champ. Can anyone identify Elias' current theme compared to his first one? I don't even think I know what Alister Black's current theme is. They're all horrible. I know everyone can't have iconic themes like Austin, Rock, or Undertaker, but the themes have to be instantly recognizable for them to work.

There's probably a good feud between Roman and Rock they could do where Rock comes back to save his family from the evil tyrant Roman and challenge him for head of the household, but Roman should absolutely win that. But who knows when that could actually come together and how long they plan on doing this head of the household stuff.

Astro7x posted:This is a hill I am willing to die on. I am definitely, in no way, trying to make an qualitative statement comparing Def Rebel's entire body of work that of CFO$, or Johnston's. It is literally a case of me just not liking Bayley's and Roman's themes, and really really loving not liking Seth's old theme. 100 out of 100 times I would rather listen to their newer ones than their older ones.
