Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted May 13, 2015 Awards Moderator Share Posted May 13, 2015 Cena/Rusev will be done with after Sunday when Cena wins the I Quit Match. No idea what they do with Rusev afterwards but hopefully he won't disappear into opening match obscurity  There should be plenty of options for him. He could go after the Intercontinental Title for a start. There's Orton, who'll need someone other than the Authority to go up against. He could be hired by Rollins to protect him against Lesnar come Summerslam time. Rusev vs. Reigns could be a more entertaining twist on the 'Reigns gets beaten up for ages by a big guy' match trope they've been doing. Rusev and Sheamus could be an interesting team (I don't know why you'd put them together but I quite like the sound of it). Neville might want words with him, since he had the US Title won this week before Rusev interfered.  There's loads of things they could do with Rusev, is my point. Whether they do or not, however...

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted May 13, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 13, 2015 Rusev reminds me of Umaga. Unstoppable monster, hugely over, had a manager everyone loved. Then they took the manager away, he got humanized by a bunch of defeats to high profile wrestlers and he became just another guy. Hopefully for Rusev's case he doesn't slip into the midcard. WWE midcard in 2015 is the last place you want to be. Exchanging wins and losses with the likes of Dolph Ziggler and Dean Ambrose is the holding pattern position.

Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted May 13, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 13, 2015 Rusev deserves better too. He's been one of their best performers over the last year or so. The bloke has thrived in everything they've given him. Not sure WWE will know what to do with him once Lana's favourite Rocky is 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winston Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Neville's simply breath taking. Been my favourite part of Raw since his debut. Â I wasn't sure where he'd fit in on the main roster but his future looks very bright indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 13, 2015 Paid Members Share Posted May 13, 2015 Add me to the Neville love-in, to the point where the only thing I watch on Raw at the moment are his matches (oh, and Zayn's debut last week). I'm not bothered in the slightest about anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted May 13, 2015 Awards Moderator Share Posted May 13, 2015 Same here, except I only watch Raw clips on WWE.com - so it's only Neville's clips I watch. He's doing brilliantly on the main roster so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I'd been wishing Neville well anyway, but thought his matches with Barrett and Sheamus had been a bit samey. So when he pulled off those moves against Cena that showcased his strength I was extremely impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 The Cena open challenge the best part of the show again - bloody love Neville - very impressed/pleasantly surprised with the finish. Not so keen on Damien "I'm my own man!!!!!" Mandow using this gimmick, think he's above this! Â Bad but inevitable news about Bryan, shame really but best for him to go this way. Â As soon as they paired Ryback and Bray up my initial thoughts were that BOTH guys need to really win a feud so someone is gonna come out of this with a *sigh* LOST AGAIN result. That being said, match(es) should still be good! Â Looking forward to the four way, only outcome is Rollins retaining surely! Â Little notes: shocked to be actually looking forward to New Day's act each week - a million miles from 6 weeks ago! When are PTP actually going to do something?

If Rusev is the only guy they have who did have a clear directive on his booking for several months on end. The Lana pairing still had so much more mileage to move past the summer and into next year if done the right way long term. The outcome to where he stands today thus far has been mixed. Some great positives, yet the negatives seem fairly straightforward to iron out. If they want to piss all over it then the likes of Ziggler, Barrett, Seamus and the rest of the nobodies they've turned them into are pretty much doomed to fail. I'm completely over King Barrett now! Jeez what a waste of his services in modern Pro Wrestling. They succeed making me not think much of their product bar NXT.

WyattSheepMask Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 The chants of "you look stupid!" At Sheamus, while Ziggler is stood in the ring looking like some glam-metal rent boy. Live crowd logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slapnut Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Sheamus does look stupid at the moment. Much much worse than Ziggler has ever looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCW Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Sheamus looks stupid when he's wearing his god awful street clothes, looks grand in his ring gear though. Ziggler just looks stupid all the time. Shit hair, shit trunks, shit t-shirts,shit ring jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slapnut Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) He's got a ginger mohawk and he wears beard plaits. He looks a muppet. Dolph, on the other hand, has lovely blonde locks and looks like a well groomed, attractive bloke. And I really can't see how his trunks can possibly offend anybody more than Midcarder X, Y or Z's do. Edited May 15, 2015 by Slapnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
