triplexpac posted:In other news, if Cena wins the title it will bring back that really awkward Cena/Authority dynamic, where HHH has to be like "Grrr I hate you John Cena, I want what's best for business! And that means being mean to our only star, our perfect ideal of what a wrestler should be, for some reason!" Are Triple H and Stephanie even heels anymore?

triplexpac posted:See I dunno about that. With there being one world title, I don't know if we'll see that many "eh gently caress it" title reigns anymore. Not that many, but I think Dean'd be one to get one of the few. He's definitely getting himself into that Foley spot of "the guy who works with The Guy" which is a good place. I think they'd turn him heel before they did it, though.

triplexpac posted:Anyway, I hope I'm wrong and Dean gets an awesome reign on top because I like him. Now he can say he's doing it for Flair And then Cena plays the numerous audio interviews of Flair saying he's only fine with his record being broken if it's by Cena, and people end up loving Cena more

I reckon Dean will get the belt some day, but it'll be a transitional role.

I really hope that when Dean wins the belt, he wins it off Rollins or Wyatt. It would be better that way.

zakharov posted:Foochs, I like you man. We have similar attitudes toward this whole thing. It's entertainment and nobody's forcing anyone to watch, let alone complain on the Internet. I like what I see most of the time, and if it's bad I'm over it about 10 minutes later. This is the best attitude to have. The last time I got way too upset about wrestling was after the Royal Rumble. But then my wife, who isn't into wrestling, just asked me why I cared so much? Just do something else you enjoy. And she was right. Watch the product when it's cool. Skip it when you don't like it. Screaming in the wilderness about problems you may have accomplish nothing except a brain tumor.

Isn't Flair's record well over 16 if you include all the promotions he was in? Either way Cena being close to that within the confines of WWE still blows my mind considering most of the greats did't even get to double digits during their time on the top such as Rock and Austin meanwhile a guy like Edge is an 11 time champ and Orton getting closer to 10 in the present day. gently caress it, just round it off at 20 when he's finally done if that's the case.

I remember how a match between Bret Hart and the Undertaker was built up partly around Bret Hart having a shot at winning the title for the fifth time, which was such into such a big deal back then. I still sometimes think back on that when I hear how many titles guys like Orton or Cena have won.

Yeah it doesn't count basically anything pre-1981. His actual number is closer to 21-time world champion.

OctoberCountry posted:Are Triple H and Stephanie even heels anymore? The last time Hunter was really close to being a full time heel was Payback last year. Bryan winning the title and the Shield beating Evolution kind of turned the heat down a lot. Never really got a good denouement to it though, with Bryan being made of glass, and Seth basically taking all the heat. Ever since then they've been more or less been a B+ Dario Cueto.

For a long time they were still pretty clearly positioned as heels because the Authority has been protecting Rollins forever. Kane is supposedly their underling and he's been on Rollins-patrol like full time, so even if HHH wasn't out there yanking refs out of the ring, him and Steph were not good guys. It's only been the past couple months where they've suddenly been like "now you need to stand on your own Seth" and Stephanie because the GLORIOUS LEADER OF THE DIVAS REVOLUTION #ThankYouSteph and HHH mostly just stands around and looks gloomy and no one is sure what they are supposed to be.

I get that, and hey it's always fun nitpicking things. But it seems like sometimes we get a little too wrapped up in it. How much energy or time is used up in here or forums like this to complain about the product? We all could do ourselves favors sometimes when we get mad and just take a step back and do something else for a while and check on it again later as opposed to getting into online arguments. But I'm not here to tell anyone how to live their lives, just something that's helped me be a little happier.

Nobody has to be mad to criticize your dumb WWE. I post on breaks at work it's not that hard to do. At least Foochs admits he looks dumb sometimes doing this. You're not some kind of true fan just because you won't admit when it's bad. RBX fucked around with this message at 19:52 on Aug 19, 2015 |

They're different products If I wanted bare-bones storylines with really good in-ring work I'd watch NJPW If I wanted bad storylines with mediocre ring works that are convenient to watch and always on I'd watch WWE If I want the best of both worlds in terms of in-ring and storylines I'd watch Lucha Underground but I CANT BECAUSE THERES NO loving SEASON 2
