I think it's fine if the objectively evil company gets posted about in a negative manner on Something Awful dot com.

Go to those threads if you hate the WWE style that much. Vince is who he is and nobody on earth is going to have him change his ways especially now. Only network executives will have him change course assuming Ari will be hands off while he nails his wife half his age.

so true, there are absolutely no other threads on this entire forum where people talk about a subject they dislike or make fun of.

I'll throw a bone and say that Shinsuke Nakamura vs Seth Rollings in a Last Man Standing match for one of the world titles is a pretty hype main event for the pape today, but yeah, I only really come here when I hear there's another big scandal at the fed or C*dy eats a pin (fingers crossed for tonight)

I think Baron Corbin is cool. I’ve always been very supportive of big guys with three moves, one of them being a very good Bossman Slam.

And like WWE is hot business wise and doing great ticket sales money but the product hasn't changed that much from when it was super down. Cody coming and the Bloodline are really just fast food restaurant changes it's dining room look/Malibu stacy gets a new hat level changes and that Summerslam main event really showed it.

How about you make a thread where you can be positive about WWE? Why should this thread cater to suit the 3 people who like WWE when this has been the nature of the thread for many years?

If you want a thread where no one complains about the WWE and no one is poo poo-talking them, you'll have like two members talking and it'll get shut down as a mercy killing.

I remember like a decade ago in BSS we had a thread dedicated to Red Hood and the Outlaws, a notoriously awful comic. It had all of one poster who did a single monthly post praising each new issue and everyone else just ignored it because why even bother? Eventually, it got locked because it was just sad to see.

...y'know what actually that sounds good. Let's mercy kill the WWE threads for their own good. :v:

That show was just meh. I best thing was Rhea telling Heyman to acknowledge her. The women's tag match was okay, but the rest was just there. The only thing to come out of it was that it looks like Survivor Series is setting up the Bloodline and Judgment Day teaming up against Cody, Cena, Knight, Jey, and a mystery fifth who at this point seems like it'll be Punk.

Here's the thing: The 'acknowledge me' thing could be a neat seed for Rhea vs Roman if WWE was remotely open to intergender, as opposed to them half-heartedly letting Rhea throw one of the smaller guys around once every 6 months while he avoids doing any offence towards her.

Bobby Lashley wrestled his first match in month on Smackdown, and there have been discussions about adding some reinforcements to his group.

This summer, Bobby Lashley added the Street Profits to his ranks, with Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins changing their personas and approach. Fightful Select learned they aren't the only talent that have been discussed for the faction, as Odyssey Jones was brought up recently in conversations about potentially joining.

Jones hasn't wrestled in nearly a month since India's Superstar Spectacle, but completely vanished from WWE TV after being drafted to Raw earlier this year. However, he's worked a number of dark matches on the Smackdown brand.
