Looks like I chose a good week to continue to not watch raw.

Roman gave one of the worst promo's ever, Ambrose stuff was mostly cool, Bryan segment was okay, and Seth won. The rest was forgettable but not outright bad or aggressively boring like last week. Decent RAW but really after last week there was no where to go but up.

Intruder posted:Am I crazy or did they advertise that Bryan was going to face Kane on THURSDAY! long before Stephanie announced it? I think the thread had come to the conclusion that it was probably going to be Kane when it was announced, but it wasn't official until tonight.

NutritiousSnack posted:Ambrose is still good but yes. achillesforever6 posted:No Ambrose is still cool, they are just trying to force him into the midcard and make him as over as they want him to be. Well, I was mainly basing it on him apparently getting his rear end kicked by Wyatt, then doing lame comedy bits (which he might have enough charisma to make bearable but they're still lame), and then apparently (I missed it) got his rear end kicked so bad that the ref threw in the towel. That just sounds sad. I like the guy so it should be clear I'm speaking about his booking and current state of being, not my overall opinion of his value as a talent.

I bought a Wyatt family shirt and they then got fed to Cena. I bought an Ambrose shirt and he got sent to midcard hell. I bought a Paige shirt and she's now on Total Divas and was replaced in the title scene by Nikki Bella. I...I just bought a Finn Balor shirt. I'm so sorry you guys. I'm so sorry I ruined Finn Balor...

Finn Balor will be called up as Sheamus's slightly retarded cousin Finn. Dirt sheets will report that it wasn't Triple H's hill to die on.

sticklefifer posted:It was that he was "expected" to be inducted, and they didn't show any video of him, so I'm wondering if there was a call they were waiting for. No it was a way of saying "this is going to happen but watch to be 100% sure"

It came off to me like some kind of weird "there's rumors from the commissioner's office and we're seeking confirmation" kayfabe. Like they expected it to be reported on Sportscenter next to baseball trade rumors and Peyton Manning debating his career future.

I also bought a Bullet Club shirt, but I don't know if the curse applies to any other promotion but WWE. I mean, I bought all those WCW shirts in 2000 and nothing bad happened then, right?

For me the only thing jobber squashes like the Ascension's do is make me hope the jobber pulls a 1-2-3 Kid. I couldn't care less how bad you beat up a jobber because he's a jobber. The fact that they're not even roster jobbers but are instead indie talents that stick out like a sore thumb on RAW just hammers it home how meaningless the match is. Despite being the heel announcer JBL nailed it for me when he said something like "I'll care when they face someone who matters."

I can only wonder what some famous promos would have been like if Vince had been insanely micromanaging scripting them. Like, how would Austin 3:16 have gone? "Jake Roberts, your talent is now STONE COLD! Not like me, my talent is as hot as Austin! Austin, Texas!* I feel like Austin tonight! I feel like Austin tonight!" *does the elbow wings dance* *Austin, Texas may not actually be that hot.

If they're smart this is the point. They are shown beating up a bunch of nobodies, but the question is raised about whether they could beat up any somebodies. Then they get their first match with someone who matters, and they sell it like it might actually be competitive, but no, the Ascension squashes them just as loving bad as all the jobbers. Then they end up with the tag titles and are the unstoppable force, having competitive matches with their challengers but still being dominate. Then you bring in a new team to finally dethrone them. Basically exactly what they did with them at NXT.
