Random Thoughts III.

[Guest]

Just realized something, the two most bitter, personal, long-lasting rivalries in the company at the moment are Bryan/Miz and Regal/Joe. I desperately want one or both of these matches.

She's just done two Lionsgate movies that aren't WWE.

Aren't Lionsgate WWE Films partner?

Correct.

I can't see Regal taking a Muscle Buster any time soon

[Guest]

He can still get choked out though!

[Mr.E]

I'd rather see Samoa Joe Vs Triple H, but that's just one of those "I'd like to see matches" rather than anything that's been set up hah.

[The Clint]

Joe will most likely make his Raw debut on the night after WrestleMania.  Unless of course he does end up in the Rumble match.

The vast majority of Lionsgate films aren't WWE films. These films that Eva Marie is in might be WWE films, like the Edge/Lana one that was recently released. I can't see any evidence of it though. Do you have a source for them being WWE films?

[The Dart]

The one with Nicholas Cage definately isn't a WWE film.

Am I only one who Doesn't get all this Cody Rhodes hype? seems to be getting big opportunities and matches in indie world when I as never seen anything great from him. Is it all just the hype or anything I have missed I should look up? Only the tag match vs the shield is a really hot moment that sticks out to me as being really good

[WWFChilli]

He's bland as bollocks personally. Serviceable, but thought he should have been well higher in WWE. All the opportunity comes from his name and every mark loving ex WWE lads to shift ticks.

[Accident Prone]

It's all hype. He kept promoting himself as some four star+ quality wrestler and that the matches he'd have on the indie circuit would make all us indy wankers fap ourselves into a coma. Well his performances have been average at best, with no blow away or must-see encounters. Quiet disappointing really, as I actually bought into his hype when he created that to-do list gimmick.

[Slapnut]

I'd be surprised if Cody does anything even remotely as good as the stuff with Goldust against The Shield.

 

The only thing I've seen of him since leaving WWE is his TNA debut where he came off incredibly small time.

[TheBurningRed]

Cody had a good couple of matches with Rey Mysterio. I enjoyed his stuff in the Legacy vs D-X feud. But I never thought he was main event material. I always thought out of the tag team, DiBiase would be the main man.

The cruiserweight division being a bit shit was inevitable, wasn't it? Half the heavyweights are cruiserweights, doing cruiserweight moves. The purple rope boys do the same thing, only they're small and fifteen of them have landed at once so it's been hard to establish a foothold. What exactly is the cruiserweight division meant to add to modern WWE that Styles, Rollins etc aren't providing? Why was it introduced, it can't purely have been a cynical grab at milking the "push the cruisers" stupidity on forums? They must have realised that it'd fall flat even for those people once it happened because the main event scene has moved on from Giant vs Luger.

There was a really good match he had on SmackDown with John Morrison right after Legacy split up, but it wasn't "PUT THE BELT ON HIM NOW" good. He's fine, but he's just a fairly bog standard wrestler in this era, there's nothing about him that stands out unless they give him a gimmick. And then when he has a gimmick and gets interesting for a bit, he becomes the poster boy for the futureworldchampnogimmicksneededlethimwrestle anti-WWE bullshit. There's no one thing he does that loads of other wrestlers aren't doing better, and he's no more than the sum of his parts.

Agree with this completely. Funnily enough what he is best at his probably embrace and getting over characters
