SamuraiFoochs posted:I'm not saying there wasn't reason to doubt, but tonight seemed deliberate, and other than some cuts (which they always do; almost any YT clip for WWE is 4-5 minutes max) they didn't really edit anything significant. Since he's facing Taker the WWE's actually being smart and booking him like a tweener because there's literally no way he's going to be outright cheered.

SamuraiFoochs posted:I'm normally skeptical but NO one was cheering Roman by the end and he straight up disrespected two universally beloved legends for almost no reason in one promo. I wouldn't toxx on it or anything but I'm growing more confident by the week that it may, in fact, be Happening. I still don't buy it, at the very least Roman's in phase 2 of Vince's 3 part destined to fail plan to get him over as face, which is probably going to last at least until the fall. Phase 1: Babyface push. Result: Sufferin' Succotash and getting a Make-A-Wish kid booed Phase 2: Badass anti-hero who seldomly talks Result: Comes off more like an rear end in a top hat than anything else Phase 3: Reuniting the Shield nostalgia act Potential Results: a. Works at the time and Roman's over again thanks to Seth and Dean, crowd immediately turns on him once more when they disband again. b. Seth & Dean get cheered for their parts, Roman's booed as soon as he's tagged in. c. The crowd completely sees through what WWE's doing and turns on all 3 of them. The only question is after Phase 3 ends does Vince finally turn him or does he just rotate back to Phase 1 and run through the process again.

Well it was nice of WWE to at least give us advanced notice to just stop watching Raw.

I always had the feeling Vince regretted not just putting Roman over Lesnar at WM31 instead of the Rollins cash-in and would try and rectify it at some point.

What's funny about Roman is that they're at least partially self aware of the issues about him. They specifically had Orton eliminate him to win the Rumble because virtually anyone else would have gotten him booed. They have the sense to make him a heelish tweener in his feud with Taker and actually aren't sweetening his reactions on YouTube for once because they know booking him straight up babyface will get him poo poo on even harder. And yet a year from now they're still planning on running him as face of the company.  DoctorGonzo posted:I played the games and read the books. Yen is the only answer friend, Shani is too good for Geralt and Essi Daven died. Is it better to play the previous Witcher games before diving into 3 to enjoy the plot and characters more? I don't have 3 yet but got 1 and 2 cheap off Steam years ago. Played like 10 minutes of the first one and the combat was clunky as hell but I'd heard good things about 2.

DoctorGonzo posted:She should lose at wrestlemania. She won the Carmella and Nattie feuds and MIZ and Maryse are heels with totally correct points TM. Didn't she lose the Nattie feud when Maryse interfered and cost her the blowoff match?

achillesforever6 posted:Mania will be better than the death march that was last year Honestly I really expected to be more hyped considering everyone's going into the show healthy except Seth, who's wrestling anyway even if maybe he shouldn't be pushing himself like that.
