As I figured, WWE knew they had to put this last but would overbook it so as to not let a great main event match happen. Here we are.

Hahaha they did basically everything in their power to make that match suck. They went above and beyond to make sure they could point to this main and say "see see we need to have John Cena. Gotta push Cena."

All I can think at this point is Vince has a terminal illness and he wants to kill the company dead before he sails off to hell.

Dean/bray is a perfectly fine feud. But maybe actually loving end the previous one before going into it.

SamuraiFoochs posted:The part that pisses me off is, if they were really wanting to push Wyatt, OR Ambrose for that matter, I wouldn't care. But it's so loving obvious they did this so Dean wouldn't lose without massive shenanigans (admittedly the smartest part about it) and could get put into a feud he can win to stay over, Rollins gets fed to loving Orton instead, and all is well in Rapadoo Land. My guess is they're trying to use the crowd favor for Ambrose to turn Wyatt into a guy with good heat so Reigns can squash him.

sticklefifer posted:Lotta babbys crying over that PPV. The problem is that the feud deserves a good, long payoff and now Dean's payoff, if he even gets one, will probably be in a 7-8 minute mania match buried under 3-4 other matches on the card. The primary purpose of that finish wasn't to extend the feud though. It was to spin Ambrose's crowd response into heat for Bray and protect Rollins for Orton. My guess is Bray gets the best of Ambrose for a while and when it's time for Ambrose's payoff on that, they find a way to put Reigns on Wyatt and shift Ambrose on to Harper.

Playing "wait and see" with WWE at this point is basically the same thing as trying to convince yourself that this next M. Night Shyamalan film will be the one that recaptures the magic of the Sixth Sense.

FakePoet posted:This is the thing that I just don't understand, conceptually. Isn't the end goal to get people over, so that you can then leverage their "over-ness", financially? If someone "accidentally" gets over, someone you weren't necessarily counting on, isn't that a good thing? No. They literally know everything better than everyone else so if someone gets over independently, the fans are dumb for getting behind that person and the WWE's number one concern becomes how they can get the fans to not like that person and start liking the intended golden child.

triplexpac posted:The problem with the Dean Ambrose situation is that the WWE is clearly still banking on Reigns even though he is hurt, so instead of saying "Ok let's push Ambrose in the meantime" they are just treading water until the golden boy comes back. The best thing is going to be when Reigns comes back to a less than desired response so they have Cena lose to Lesnar at the Rumble, then come back and win the Rumble to overcome the odds and finally win the title at Mania.

The big issue with the Ryder thing for me was that it was coming at a time where WWE was really heavily pushing the "gotta make your own breaks" narrative and even having mandatory meetings discussing the use of social media to get yourself over and raise the company profile. They called everyone into meetings to ask them to do the exact poo poo Zack Ryder then did and they spited the living gently caress out of him for it. As for "where he goes on the card," it shouldn't really matter. His gimmick was NEVER going to last longterm at that level of popularity and even the most staunch Ryder supporters knew that. The point is he got himself over pretty loving big with literally zero help from WWE and instead of letting it play its course and making money off of it, they totally buried him for no other reason than because they could.
