flashy_mcflash posted:I hope so, but I don't like Dolph in this role. It just doesn't seem like he has any skin in the game. I'm sure the matches would be fine but I'm not invested in Dolph and Lana as a couple. How can you not love a couple where it seems like the only reason they got together was "uhhh, he was there?" I mean, people might enjoy it if there had been any buildup, like Dolph stepping in if Rusev looked to be threatening Lana, or Dolph saying "Hey, you could do better?" Or they'd had any interaction whatsoever?

that's the stated point of their get together. He was standing there and Lana wanted to make Rusev jealous

Dolph Ziggler is extremely horny and I for one am glad that his booking has caught up with nick nemeth the person

'He was there' is literally the reason, so being mad because you assume wwe is expecting you to treat it as more significant than that is a little silly. The feud is completely not about Ziggler, he's just there as a proxy punching bag for rusev.

I've nearly been watching WWE for a year now since I started watching shortly before MITB and in that time I've gone from totally apathetic about Dolph Ziggler to appreciating him to really liking him and wishing for more for him to appreciating him to being totally apathetic about him until now, when through a combination of WWE booking failures and Ziggler's weird Twitter poo poo I at last hate him, and his stupid little face. Burn, Ziggler, Burn. Jeselnik Was Right.

I still say the first segment where Lana just destroyed Rusev verbally should have just ended with her walking out with no Ziggler.

Re: Zack Ryder cheering like a dummy - It wasn't just a loss for Zack. It was Zack performing in his home town, at the arena he watched wrestling in as a kid that is closing up. It was a spotlight for Ryder and the arena holding it's final WWE show so Long Island can have their moment with their boy.

The funny thing is that Swagger can talk just fine if his days with the Swagger Soaring Eagle and Bunkhouse Buck were any indication. He plays a pretty good college jock rear end in a top hat. "It's called a Swaggie, and it's *delicious*!"

I just thought that was a funny way of saying it.

Alain Post posted:I think the dumbest possible thing you can possibly complain about in wrestling is it being predictable. My point exactly - every promotion has rehashed some kind of gimmick or angle in one way or another, happens all the time. I love Dean's shenanigans, and WWE letting him do more stuff instead of constantly losing matches or looking dumb is refreshing

I think it would have been better without the Entourage people there. Even if one of them is from the area, it kind of distracted from everything you mentioned here.

Cause honestly even if it led to Swagger/Rusev #35 I would have busted a gut laughing if Lana hooked up with Swagger.

Dexo posted:Also John Cena Midcard Final Boss owns. he's putting on fun matches with dudes who otherwise would be sitting backstage doing nothing. And doesn't have to actually cut promo's against them to bury their characters on the mic. Remember when authority figures in the WWE would use midcarders to do their bidding? Who else is sick of Kane and Big Show? Might be begging the question but it is pertinent to point this out. Just because Cena doesn't bury the challengers on the mic doesn't make it any better because there's nothing to engage the audience other than a good promo. The wrestler who accepts the challenge doesn't receive character development or reveals their intentions, thus there is no reason for the audience to be engaged. Let's be honest, the idea was fresh for a while but I skip the segment almost every week. It was a good way to introduce Neville, Owens and Zayn but the actual midcarders have not received an iota of attention. Maybe they'll do more with it and maybe there will be reason once poo poo actually hits the fan, but that's yet to be seen. GentlemanBrofro fucked around with this message at 00:44 on May 27, 2015 |

When asked about it (as if WWE would actual acknowledge it), Lana just replies "I'm speaking like an American because it's what's been in my throat the last few weeks" And somewhere off-camera, Vince McMahon is high-fiving himself.
