When the drug test comes back positive for performance enhancing drugs.
Dolph and Zack should have a loser leaves town match and they both pin each other and instead of it leading to a rematch, Shane just fires both of them.

Sounds like you're biased and racist my friend.

The Styles segment was a 1:1 copy of when Nakamura fought the Singhs when Jinder was champion. They ran it identically, in the same middle show slot.

Jinder's promos on Nakamura were complete horseshit, this time his promo was actually good and it's kind of ridiculous to compare the two.

Given that match was entirely ADR pummeling the poo poo out of him and working the crowd up with amazing facial expressions, ADR probably could have had that match with Fandango to the same effect

Usually matches like that require a guy who is selling well and that's the one thing Dolph does...

I actually think Ziggler's selling is frequently poor and takes me out of the match when he does his knockoff HBK floppy-fish bullshit, but for whatever reason he was fantastic in the ADR match.

Selling is stupid because it's fake. if they want people to think it's real again then just make them keep hollering, "I'm not going to "sell" that lovely fake move" while pushing on each Other and so on

Apparently Greg Valentine refused to sell a dropkick unless it actually hit his chest which is one of many reasons The Hammer owned.

I think the ADR match had the advantage of looking very real, Dolph had been concussed recently and ADR was cracking him in the skull with reckless abandon.

Anyone who disses on Fandango should die and I'll go to their funeral and gyrate on top of their casket and talk in a deep, breathy voice to all their family members.

OFFICIAL RACIST
So WWE Studios is starting to expand into scripted and reality programming.

One of their ideas?

quote:

The second discussed series would be something of an amalgamation of the old Tough Enough series, the old Diva Searches and the competition era of the WWE NXT brand. The concept would "seek out" a new female WWE star. We are told the idea that has been passed around would be that the series places its competitors on the road with WWE as they all travel together via tour bus. There would be weekly competitions that would lead to eliminations before one final winner is crowned, earning a WWE contract. WWE has been looking to revive the Diva Search idea for some time.

There is absolutely no way this will end well, although I hope one of the challenges is eating stiff kicks from Asuka, while she swears at you/insults you in her angry japanese tone.

The relative quality of the episodes themselves doesn't matter much anymore, at least to me. You can have fun jokes and goofiness but it's a goddamn wrestling show, at some point it needs to lead to a wrestling match and it's been clear for months that Fashion Files exists completely for its own sake and it's never going to lead to Breezango, who are a pretty drat good tag team by the way!, actually getting any sort of real push as wrestlers.

They found something funny that should've been a springboard and instead they got completely pigeonholed. It kinda sucks.

My favorite Ryder match is still the title match he had with Christian on WWECW. I really liked Christian's face run as a fighting champion during the final days of WWECW.
