Congrats WWE, you've managed to take all the guys I like/care about and make me go "ugh, who loving cares" to all their poo poo. I this point I'm just hoping all these feuds are finished at Payback so they can just loving move on.

I thought Emma / Alicia Fox was a no 1 contender's match for Payback and got excited to see Emma / Paige on a PPV. And then I was informed that I was not correct in my assumption, and there went the only reason I wanted to watch Payback. Gonna watch ROH or something instead I think.

Evolution vs SHIELD should have been a Mania match and a longer feud...but there is not a lot going on in the actual story. Just Hunter being smug Batista being silent and Randy eh and SHIELD being themselves.

A simple summary is fine, we don't necessarily need to know every single spot. Like, "RVD fought Cesaro in a dogshit match which Cesaro won with a German suplex after BNB distracted RVD." I think this is easier than reading about every single punch. Agreed. Not that I dont appreciate what obviously took a lot of time/effort I did not want to read all that poo poo

Why is Cesaro using a German now? The neutralizer was awesome.

If they would just give Paige, Emma, Alicia, Summer Rae and Natalya a solid 10 minutes to wrestle as they do on NXT, the Divas division could really be something. As it is, they're trying, bless 'em, but there's only so much you can do with four minutes and a roll up. They recently put up a video about Paige & Emma at NXT Arrival to hype Takeover (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcM7lzSJdNo) and it looks like at least Steph and HHH are jazzed about giving the Divas more of a shot, but for whatever reason that just does not seem to translate to the main shows.

I always thought the Neutralizer was meh until he started lifting guys like Khali, Henry and Big Show. His German Suplex is also meh since it always feels like a non finish, but when he actually deadlifts people with it like Swagger it's amazing. Also jesus that RAW was horrible, and Payback is looking grim. Also I'm going to miss next week's RAW and that sucks cause it's the starting build up to Money In The Bank Also quickly on Alicia I'm fully expecting her to win the Diva's title at Payback, Paige has barely been on TV and all the build has been around Fox. Hell check the WWE site and the match description is basically all about Alicia.

To be fair though I'll probably have a hell of a time regardless of the card, but I can be hopeful I suppose.

Speaking of the Divas, is there any word on if Finlay is still their agent? I seem to remember him doing an okay job with the division, given what he had to work with.

pressedbunny posted:Emma still brings it in NXT. Alicia's gotten much better but her entire offence is still backbreaker-backbreaker-hoarse scream-backbreaker-get pinned/immediately tap. The booking/general style of Divas matches on the main roster isn't doing either of them any favours. From your description, she sounds like a better Roderick Strong.

I'm totally on board with Cesaro's german suplex for the potential of future crazy deadlifts and transitions into it, even if we haven't seen any yet. I want him to catch someone going for a flying reverse elbow or something like that and drop them into the german.

Do you guys think we'll ever see a Money in the Bank Divas briefcase match? I don't think there's ever been one and I don't know why.

Didn't they say last week on Raw there were going to address the title situation with Bryan? Then they did the exact same thing this week. Which I assume they will do every week until he comes back?

He's only 2 weeks removed, but he'd have dropped the title already if it was as bad as he made it sound in last night's promo.

There was an anecdote in a recent Observer about HHH trying to do things for the better (at least that's the viewpoint of the wrestlers), but he's still at the mercy of Vince, especially when he randomly changes his mind at the drop of a hat. Theoretically, once HHH fully takes over, you might start seeing marked improvements.

Way too many of HHH's pet projects have turned out to be amazing for there to be any doubt left whether having him in charge will be a good thing or not.
