Guest Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 20 hours ago, Statto said: Made the mistake of scrolling through the comments on an article promoted at me on Facebook on how they "managed to pull off" the clearly pre-taped Wyatt/Fiend switcheroo on Raw. "I was convinced it was Bo Dallas". "It definitely wasn't pre-taped, Bray was wearing tear-off clothes with the Fiend outfit underneath, he just quickly changed when the lights went out". Fuck me, these people walk among us, and are allowed to vote, drive & procreate. Facebook comments are to be avoided on any topic, not just wrestling. Never any value in reading them, not sure these people even exist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that AEW has done brilliantly is that their storylines aren't linear, or particularly rushed the way they are in WWE. It's all subjective at the end of the day but I'm glad AEW has three or four stories overlapping, Sting's introduction now has the potential for three or four over the next wee while, the opportunities are endless. Raw is very much generic feud, little character/storyline recall, PPV, possible PPV rematch then onto next feud. Very little subtlety to it whereas with Page and the Dark Order it's been bubbling away naturally and we're not yet sure where it's headed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Supremo Posted December 22, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted December 22, 2020 What a shame that we don't even get the standard WWE freak out when ratings tank anymore. It was my only reason to read the results this morning. Writers hired, on-air apologies, mad angles, crazy stunts. Nothing. They're just flying in all the old people again. During a global pandemic. Sad times when even those running the company can't be arsed with it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cutting Edge Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Yeah I'd rather they wait and hopefully plan something decent rather shock and panic shows, what and how they get there is anyone's guess and if fans will be open to changes or just shit on it regardless because that's what they're used to.

Paid Members Supremo Posted December 22, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted December 22, 2020 Was this their way of letting Mickie James know she's sacked? Wasn't she on the main roster a few weeks ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Well there's at least one completely random name on there I didn't expect to see so I'm curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlito I'm guessing? I think other than appearing on an episode of the Edge & Christian show, this will be the first time he's done anything with the company, since leaving.  Maybe he's sat in the audience at Hall of Fames, but I can't even remember him being a talking head on any documentaries or anything.

Yeah, he's the one that sticks out. I'm sure he'll just stand there and do his catchphrase and spit an apple at someone but I'm fairly sure he's been gone for like a decade. Pretty random.
