DynamiteKidd posted:That's fine because it means Reigns won't be in the Rumble Darkest timeline: Roman loses at TLC. Triple H tells him he's lost his title shot. Roman enters the Rumble. Wins. Is #1 contender. Wins at Fastlane in a meaningless match against an angry Ambrose who wanted the title shot. At the end, Ambrose either turns heel or raises Roman's arm. Roman wins at Mania.

Alain Post posted:I'm sure all the bad parts of RAW, are Vince and Kevin Dunn's fault, and all the good parts belong to HHH, who does not actually book NXT. HHH has enough creative control over NXT that he could gently caress it up if he wanted, and the fact that he doesn't shows he's better at this than Vince he's still a height mark (Baron Corbin) and a mark for himself but those are some minor sins in the grand scheme of things

New Day will actually not get stale for at least another year or two with this gimmick, imho maybe they don't need 20 minutes of promo time every Raw (though it's better than any offered alternative) but it's fine, don't panic and continue to watch all of their youtube clips every week instead of Raw The New Day Show featuring their buddies Team BAD, only on USA

DynamiteKidd posted:It's silly to say the New Day isn't getting overexposed; last week they were in 4 or 5 segments. idk I listen to podcasts where the same set of people have been talking every week for 2-3 hours for 5 years you're only overexposed if you're no longer interesting to the people who have seen you before

Sami Zayn, IMO the single best face WWE currently employs, has had multiple angles inside and outside of matches about how he tries to be a good person at all times, no matter what, and it totally owns and is an absolutely wonderful message to send to kids (and, hell, some adults) watching I'd be fine with Reigns being kind of an rear end in a top hat in the same way Austin was an rear end in a top hat, they just need to commit to it and not leave him in the same lovely in-between where Cena is oatgan posted:The crowd cheered the only people cheering were the people cheering for the spot, not for Cena, fwiw

would just like to point out that on the go-home show for NXT TakeOver London: * the heel challenger, Samoa Joe, put the defending face champion, Finn Balor, out cold in a lock (as he has done multiple times since their feud began), making the audience want to see Joe's comeuppance and what Finn will possibly do to finally beat Joe * Apollo Crews & Baron Corbin had a brawl that left the arena unresolved, leaving the audience wanting to see more * the face challenger, Asuka, who's gimmick is that she loving destroys people, destroyed a jobber even after the heels attempted to interfere, making the audience excited to see her finally get to destroy the heels * the face challengers, Enzo & Cass, cut a promo on the defending heel champions Dash & Dawson, after a match against jobbers that showed they were even more fiery and dangerous than ever, making the audience want to see them finally win * the heel challenger, Nia Jax, cut a promo on the defending face champion Bayley, after a match in which Bayley was clearly not at 100%, making the audience concerned and worried that she may not be able to defend the title you know what didn't happen on the go-home show for TakeOver? No one cleanly dominated their opponents, leaving no drama left in the feud. None of the faces made their heel opponents look like fools. Meanwhile, on Raw, Roman Reigns pins or otherwise defeats Sheamus every chance he gets, and on Smackdown, the Lucha Dragons pinned New Day, and Ambrose/Reigns cleanly beat Sheamus/Owens in a tag. Ugh.

well there's zero chance that TLC lives up to UFC 194, holy gently caress then again if they decide to copy UFC and have Roman beat Sheamus in 10 seconds that would be a pretty loving cool main event e: McGregor talking about how he wants to hold the featherweight belt while competing in lightweight has me more excited than any angle the WWE has ever presented abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 09:13 on Dec 13, 2015 |

Slammy categories are up http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/2015-12-14/slammy-awards-2015-voting-28352290 I'm pasting them here because wwe.com is a bad website and doesn't have a single page view. You vote for any of them using hashtags, as WWE.com says: quote:You can cast your votes tonight on your favorite social media platform. Just post your vote using the category’s official hashtag, along with your selected nominee (limit one vote per day per category). For example, if Savio Vega was on the current roster and he was your pick as Superstar of the Year, your social media post might look something like this: First, you can vote for literally any superstar to be Superstar of the Year using the hashtag #SUPERSTAR. Let's go Cesaro. #rivalry of the year quote:Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt #doublecross of the year quote:Jon Stewart costs John Cena the U.S. Title at SummerSlam #surprisereturn of the year quote:Chris Jericho joins forces with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose at Night of Champions Best Original #wwenetworkshow quote:Breaking Ground #tagteam of the year quote:The New Day #hashtag of the year (no, really) quote:#GiveDivasAChance #celebrity moment of the year quote:Stephen Amell dives onto Stardust at SummerSlam #tellme You Didn't Just Say That moment of the year quote:Dean Ambrose calls Seth Rollins “Justin Bieber” on Raw (Raw, May 25) Best John Cena #usopenchallenge (aka the "anyone but Ziggler" category) quote:John Cena vs. Cesaro (Raw, July 6) The following categories will be voted on during next week's Raw (which I guess is also the Slammys): quote:Match of the Year I don't know why I bothered typing this up and hate myself and this company
