What I like about this is literally everyone has valid points.

It's subtle and well-written. In other words, it's not Raw.

Likable scumbag face Dean Ambrose is such a breath of fresh goddamn air compared to Roman/Seth

I still think Face Seth is good. He just needs to commit a bit more.

Can't stand with you on this one, Foocks.

He's got a great face moveset and insanely good babyface fire. The program with Owens has been poo poo because it's glaringly obvious Seth/HHH needs to happen first.

True, and he needs another angle than being mad that he ain't golden boy no more.

I agree and I feel like him going over HHH is what will in kayfabe slay that demon.

Also Ellsworth gonna turn heel and screw Dean.

I said this in the other thread, but the problem with Seth as a face is that he doesn't have the character development to justify being a face. He never had a mea culpa for his past actions, he glosses over the reality of how he succeeded in the past, he casts aspersions on Owens for doing the same things he himself did with a seeming lack of self-awareness. In other words, its impossible to have sympathy for his plight, no matter how likable he is or how much you want to pop for his moves. You need that moment of sympathy or a turn can't work.

There was that moment of sympathy, then HHH vanished and never explained himself or feuded with Seth.

I don't consider that moment when Seth thought, with a look of rapture on his face, that Triple H was about to kill Owens and hand HIM the belt only to have the opposite happen, to be a moment of sympathy. Especially when he came back the next night and threw a tantrum about it as if he had not hoped it would happen to him literal seconds earlier. But hey, that's just me.

He admittedly should've refused the help, but acting like his reaction was not justified in character is incredibly disingenuous. Again, the problem is they're making KO the HHH proxy without firmly explaining, ideally in HHH's words, why he screwed Seth and how he doesn't care what Seth did for him because HHH is a piece of poo poo.

Sanguinia posted:

His reaction was absolutely justified in-character, and I never meant to imply otherwise. The fact that his character has not developed beyond reacting that way is why he's been a bad face. That was, in fact, my thesis.

So in other words I THINK we agree.

The problem is not that Seth is a bad face, the problem is that Raw's writing is loving trash.

So why isn't Dean Ambrose the champion? I mean I know it was a number 1 contenders match, but shouldn't that be a battle of the people who want to be the number 1 contender, not the guy who is the champ?

Or was it a number 1 contender to be James Ellsworth's best friend match?

This happens often in wrestling. It's arguably dumb but in this case it makes sense IMO
