ThePariah posted:Will Payback be the end of the Cena-Wyatt feud? I can't think of a satisfying end to the story, Cena simply winning when Wyatt doesn't care about wins and losses doesn't seem good enough. I don't see any good feuds for either guy either, Wyatt's already feuded with all the other top faces and Cena with all the top heels. Yeah that's kinda the problem with this feud. The stakes are so muddled, guys roles aren't clearly defined, I don't think anyone involved has a plan. The roster is so shallow right now that they can't really make Cena look weak, but I don't see how he gets out of this looking stronger than before it started.

Speaking of the Divas, is there any word on if Finlay is still their agent? I seem to remember him doing an okay job with the division, given what he had to work with.

oldpainless posted:Who was that kid with the Wyatts? Has he shown up anymore? Am I supposed to remember him for story reasons or was it just a thing they decided to do? Shhhh, if WWE hasn't acknowledged something in a couple weeks we're supposed to forget it ever happened.

Eat My Fuc posted:He directly answered a question about how it feels to be RETIRED as "it feels good". Eh I think he's just handling a fluff piece article in a lighthearted manner. Talking about charities he is involved with isn't necessarily the time to talk about his in-ring career.

Suben posted:Yeah I know the general "pretend anything pre-WWE never happened" deal they tend to take. It's more the actually getting indignant that other people were like "Whoa, Ricochet? He's good!" part. Yeah it makes no sense, but it's just the way WWE has always been. Hell, they brought in Dusty Rhodes only to do nothing with him.

sportsgenius86 posted:I get the sense that the anger has more to do with them simply not wanting people at these camps to be vocal about their thoughts on guys like Ricochet when they come in, which I understand to a certain degree. It's funny to think of a sports team, or hell even a movie, deciding "we don't want to deal with anyone who has a reputation for being awesome before coming to us, god forbid we have to deal with someone with an ego"

Sweeney Tom posted:80 years from now, people will still be saying Punk's coming back any day now Do people really expect Punk to come back "any day now"? Bringing him back for a C-level show like Payback would be silly. MAYBE Summerslam, but at this point I'm expecting him to sit out until at least the Rumble.

Oh yeah, I said this last night but anyone who thinks Ziggler is a better worker than Tyson Kidd really should check out yesterday's NXT main event.

Is the post show on the Network? Cause reading the reactions to it this morning, I wish I would have stayed up to watch it.

I'm impressed with how Cena & Bray saved their feud. What a great match.

flashy_mcflash posted:Does she even still have the Anti-Diva gimmick anymore? Because if so, she's not doing well at carrying it off despite showing that she can do just that when she debuted on NXT. She still has the leather jacket, heavy rock theme, and the 'screaming at nothing in particular' taunt, but her mannerisms outside of that read as an 'aw shucks' babyface that's more suited to Emma or Bayley. It's like they expect that the whole WWE audience is familiar with NXT and they will immediately react like the Full Sail crowd. Which is weird, since they also assume that Raw & Smackdown have different audiences.

Mechafunkzilla posted:Paige's "anti-diva" gimmick doesn't work so well on the main roster because she's actually the most barbie-esque of any the actual top-card divas. Saying that the other divas are "too tan" is...kinda uncomfortable in a feud with Alicia Fox or Tamina. Barbie must have had one hell of a redesign since I was a kid

Minidust posted:Is Brock supposed to show up any time soon? The main event heel scene is seriously hurting for someone who is a real threat. All the big heels were vanquished last night except THE DEMON KANE, and he already lost to Bryan in a title match last month. I could see him coming back to give Summerslam a shot in the arm. Doubt they'd waste one of his appearances on TLC, which usually does ok based on the gimmick alone.

sportsgenius86 posted:wasn't the plan for Brock to work Summerslam and have his program build to a big match at the September show to try to get people to rollover their Network subs? Don't know what their plan is, but my thinking would be Brock's first match back after beating Undertaker would be bigger than his second match after. So why not do that one match at the September show, if that's what they want?
