DootDootDoot Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 What on earth does it matter whether Bayley is attractive or not as to whether or not that's uncomfortable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody thinks it does. The point was that Bret and Rey were definitely not perv bait, then it all went ladladlad as an spin off. Like a hairy handed Frasier.

Paid Members Supremo Posted May 1, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) Pretty average episode. I loved that they didn't make Sami or Kevin turn on the crowd. The reactions they got from the Montreal crowd were awesome and it's a huge pet hate of mine when hometown heels are forced to kill the buzz and excitement in the hope of getting the, "right," reaction. It never works, it just results in a more subdued atmosphere. Allowing the fans to go nuts for them made it far more fun. Plus, it's no wonder they cheered Sami. He's becoming so ridiculously entertaining as a heel, that I can already see how this will eventually turn him face. The amount of character he's shown since turning heel is something to behold. The idea of a heel Sami Zayn seemed like the shittest idea in the world, and yet it's completely turned his career around. Everything he does is awesome at the moment. You can't take your eyes off him in case he ridiculously gyrates or pulls another dumb face. I love him. What the fuck is this Word-Of-The-Hour shit from Coach? They need to pack that in immediately. Bobby Lashley is a waste of time and space. No-one seems to care about him and he's a clumsy joke in the ring. Also, has there ever been a guy in the history of the business who returns to the WWE after over a decade, and yet never ever has a promo to at least re-introduce himself? It's so strange that he's not allowed near a microphone, existing in this weird random-partner-in-a-six-man-tag limbo. Was he shit on the mic in TNA? As bad as he is in the ring now?! Braun's got the best hot tag in the business. I'll never get tired of watching him run over Kevin Owens like a truck. Plus, whilst I didn't have time to watch it tonight, that Drive Along with him and Alexa Bliss flirting looks like gold and that episode will almost certainly be the first I find the time to watch that show. They need to make that a storyline on the main show because they've got fantastic chemistry. Imagine Braun's ridiculous tux whenever they eventually did the wedding angle. It'd be so great. Corbin is the worst. Shit look, no presence, awful delivery that can't overcome the terrible scripting. He makes me really appreciate Big Cass. They've killed the Titus thing already. Drew McIntyre has got something. His work on the main roster is already infinitely better than it was on NXT. He feels like a huge deal in these promos, despite being saddled with Ziggler. I hate it when Cole shouts, "he's in the Drop Zone!" It's my new most hated buzz word. Seth and Balor have brilliant chemistry. That main event was really great. I like that Finn is showing little signs of turning heel, too. That's exactly what he needs. Roman is the deadest of dead. They need to write him off for six months.

Jacko Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Shows how over strowman is that the crowd didn’t shit on him for saving Roman , we all talk about strowman being the man but I actually think they have another one in the wings in Rollins, I no they tried him as a heel and it didn’t work but the money’s now in a fighting champion Rollins for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted May 1, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 1, 2018 That Strowman thing stood out to me too. It didn't make Reigns anymore popular but I was stunned that Strowman withstood the double whammy of helping Reigns and fighting off Sami and KO. Real eye-opener that. Still praying that this Reigns thing is a slow-burn turn. Nothing else makes any sense. Rollins was super over. I still find him really cringey. Not sure how you transition him back to the top without him becoming that fucking muppet again when asked to carry long promo segments and crack jokes. How anyone could watch a full Raw these days, I've no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted May 1, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 1, 2018 Saw online today but if you watch the finish to the cage match again, Roman's foot is on the apron so Brock legit wins by their own stupid rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at the point now where I can't get through a 25 minute highlight package, I don't think I'll ever get back on board with it either. The show is so far removed from everything i ever loved about pro wrestling it's not even worth the effort anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems bizarre even typing it, but TNA did a better job with him than WWE have done. Twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
