I almost never find Jericho matches particularly exciting. He seems to move in slow motion, even when he's flying through the air. I never figured out how he manages that.

Kayfabe wise, which Diva has the worst taste in men?

Maria is pretty bad: Carlito, Santino, Ziggler... all these dudes who treat her pretty badly.

Kelly Kelly isn't terrific either: Miz, Balls Mahoney, Knox...

Why do a lot of people here hate Cena? He's good on the mic, he's a good worker, and he seems like a pretty nice guy in real life. Am I missing something?

He's one part of the stale main event scene on Raw. It's been variations of Cena/Orton/HHH/Batista for a really long time now. When he's not in the main event, the vitriol level goes down a lot. But when it's title shot after title shot, things get boring.

On paper, I can see why he would want to build up his opponents instead of dismissing them - if you, as a face, call your opponent a piece of poo poo and he beats you, you don't have anywhere else to go promo-wise.

To see an example of completely tearing down your opponent and making them look like poo poo during a face promo, check out anything Hunter does when he's a face champion; it's freaking brutal. He spends more time hitting on the interviewer chick than talking about his match.

And if he does happen to mention his title defense he's all "Pfft, I'm gonna be champion for a decade :smug: It's horrible, because if he's so goddamn certain, then why in the hell do I want to spend my money to see him win? There's a fine line between running down your opponent and building yourself up so big that it looks like a fluke when you lose.

Matt Fact: Matt lasted longer than his brother in the Royal Rumble.

Everything about Mattitude was so amazingly well done, it must have been somebody's pet project because he's never been quite that good again. He's still massively over and has developed into a really solid midcard go-to guy, but during that Mattitude period his music/entrance/mannerisms/promos/wrestling etc was just all clicking in a special way.

And the addition of Shannone Moore as the MF'er was a stroke of genius, because you could see the two of them were having a great time with it.

I was watching Rumble vids on youtube and I remember back when the WWE used to do live lottery drawings throughout the pre-Rumble Raw or Superstars or whatever.. when between matches the wrestlers would stand in the back and a little lottery thingy would twirl and they would pull out a ball and open the ball and read their number -- and they wouldn't say it out loud but you were supposed to gauge there reactions and tell if they got a really good number or a really bad number. And Million Dollar man would start chasing down the happiest-looking wrestlers and start making offers.

Was this awesomeness just a one-year thing?

They seem to alternate that periodically. Sometimes they have it and sometimes they don't. One of the best moments was Rey saying that Eddie would guide him and give him a good number ... and Rey wound up going first :laugh:

Nobody would've guessed a year ago that The Miz would be a key piece to the future of the company.

Seriously. He's constantly improving in the ring and it's clear he's not afraid to bust out new moves to see how they work. His mannerisms and crowd interaction are impeccable. Outside of the ring, he interviews extremely well since he's obviously comfortable in front of the camera.

With the right angle, he does have face potential, so long as he keeps his act up and just mocks the heels instead.
