Jackie D posted:I can't believe management is killing off something the fans like I'm taking it with a grain of salt because they put him at 10 at the Rumble 2 years ago, and had him at 10 this year even though he was attacked backstage. But it totally wouldn't surprise me either. This is the same company that told Wade Barrett to say "I've got some bad news" then had him stop saying it because the crowd popped.

WWE saddling someone with a poo poo gimmick and the wrestler going full ham and getting it over instead thus pissing WWE off is way too drat common. Idiots. e: Just of the top of my head - Bad News Barrett, Tye, Fandango, Breeze (to a lesser extent with Fashion Cops), Rusev (although not given a bad gimmick), Heath Slater free agent...

Assuming its true, it must be even more frustrating for Tye Dillinger because he's much older and dealt with WWE ten years ago as Shawn Spears and didn't pan out there well at all. Now he's got a gimmick that's over and they're allegedly trying to kill it. He must feel like he can't win.

My favorite part of that was almost immediately afterwards they gave him a new "push" as the Authority's head enforcer, which in practice meant that Triple H got to say "I'm afraid I've got some bad news" in a bad accent and then Barrett would go and lose a match. And then I think his shoulder exploded like three weeks later.

At least we got Tamina vs Nia Jax at Survivor Series. And unironically, if this is the end for her at least she managed to push through the pain enough to get into the Rumble.

Tye Dillinger is pretty much already at his ceiling so there's no real mystery to him not being on TV much. It's not like we see Curt Hawkins every week.

The 10 chants during the ref counts still crack me up because the ref count is one of the dumbest things in pro rassling. I like it more now knowing wwe hates it.

Problem with SDL is that the main stories are all drawn-out, tired versions of stuff we had a year+ ago. Shane mad at Styles for 2 months -> Shane mad at KO for 6 months KO teams with former adversary who's now an an amusingly annoying heel (Jericho) -> KO teams with former adversary who's now an amusingly annoying heel (Zayn) Charlotte's excellence besmirched by a gang of harmless stooges (the Welcoming Committee) -> Charlotte's excellence besmirched by a gang of harmless stooges (Riottt Squadd) Becky loses -> Becky loses Assuming Nak's motivated, Nakamura/Styles for the belt will be awesome, of course...but there's been like zero build. Before the Rumble, Nakamura was 6th banana in that Shane/KO/Bryan/Zayn storyline coming off losing the feud to honkin' Jinder. Styles and Nakamura had a mid-match showdown way back at MITB, but then went their own ways. The "I'm going to beat you at WrestleMania" stuff is cute but that's all they've given us.

Stop saying good wrestlers are where they should be when they're either jobbing all the time or not on TV! Goddamn! Tye Dillinger isn't like, fuckin' Kevin Owens good or anything, but he's a really solid midcard babyface guy who can at least be on TV every week and win a match sometimes and be in the picture for midcard titles. And Tyler Breeze and Fandango are both loving awesome! Breezango getting over with the Fashion Files was such a monkey's paw because now people know how funny they are but people still don't know how great they are in the ring and it makes me sad.

Aphrodite posted:Hawkins is on TV like all the time on Main Event. I haven’t seen him actually wrestle in years. Possibly when he was attached to Edge. How is he skill wise? I miss seeing Heath Slater wrestle. He’s my favourite jobber. I regularly watch NXT (not on wwe network) and occasionally watch Raw but just can’t last more than YouTube clips with Smackdown. It’s Shane. I thought it was both Jinder and Shane but when I see or hear Shane I turn it off. That was the original definition of X-PAC heat back in the day. Used to like the guy but watching him insert himself into every angle has gone beyond frustrating. At least HHH was a top tier wrestler back in the day, regardless of what you thought of him. It’s like if Steph inserted herself in every aspect/angle and the announcers acted like she was the second coming of Benoit in the ring. Drives me bonkers.
