Do you debut him as a villain and he cuts a "YOU PEOPLE" promo or a babyface and get him booed for being a traitor

Shaman Tank Spec posted:* and even then it's debateable. But you have fewer options for outside revenue streams which now includes working for both indies and other middle to major promotions, a worse merch split, worse merch that is slower to be produced, worse travel demands and higher travel costs. And that's assuming you're main roster seeing main roster pay, whereas rumor says NXT call ups are weird halfsie deals. If you don't want to hustle and you're good at minimizing travel costs, you make more in WWE. But if you don't want to hustle, you probably don't want to gently caress around with travel costs...

And this was in interviews where he was complimenting Roode, this wasn't heel heat or sarcasm. Roode was like 40 during the feud.

You could imagine it as a comic about a girl who thinks she's a superhero and gets into all sorts of scrapes. The t-shirt on the other hand is a baby playing dress-up.

the original looks like a tertiary character on the cheaply and quickly produced netflix animated series of somebody who prestigiously had a failed animated pilot on Fox once. feeling a little bit aggrieved about this but in a cool way

just fooling around. i commend nikki for whatever she did to "con vince." kidding again with the word play, like convince. not that many people in the middle and lower card seem to be able to get their vision approved, so it is indeed a shame that it was vince who conned her! have a good day or good rest, everybody

Every moment of it was horrible, the skype promos were horrible, when they were together it was horrible, the ending to his IC title match with The Miz was one of the most confusing and clusterfuck things in wrestling history and lead to Darren getting released

If they do turn Cena heel, go full bore. Just go all the drat way into supernatural territory and give him solid black eyeballs and make him ten times stronger than he actually is. Replace his theme music with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pExZ6b3rN0M Nobody can stop him until WALTER shows up and knife edge chops him into another realm.

Others have pointed this out, but it's early 90s execution, which doesn't work in 2021. Marvel and DC are huge money, a person lamely liking super heroes doesn't gel when people giving love Marvel. Plus the constant losing. Wazzu fucked around with this message at 11:43 on Aug 17, 2021 |

Also, she suffers from an alien technovirus and is occasionally seen backstage injecting a neon fluid into her neck to treat it. If she goes too long without the medicine, her veins become bright purple and more pronounced. Her finisher is a Gotch piledriver off the top rope.

So I just read a recap of the show, but WWE's strategy in the lead-up show for their second-largest PPV is to have the face Women's champ job clean, twice, to each of the heel challengers' finishers in one night? What the gently caress.

I got some old WWF vhs tapes and on one was the episode of Smackdown where the Radicalz first compete in the ring and they get straight up jobbed out by DX. Sure, DX cheats a little bit but most of the time commentary sells it as “THESE PATHETIC WRESTLERS CAME OVER HERE TO PROVE THEIR WORTH AND THEY loving LOST LIKE LITTLE BITCHES NOW THEY DONT HAVE A JOB.” It’s a wonder some of those dudes ever made it and got over because holy poo poo, what an awful intro to the company.

The worst part of WWE isn't that it's bad, although it is VERY bad. The worst part is how loving lazy it is. Segments get repeated not only week to week but show to show. Sometimes you'll get the same segment with different people twice in the same show. Skits will start at the premise and then... just finish. No punchline, no joke, just stuff happening. They don't care. As long as it fill some time, they do not give a poo poo what gets put on TV.
