If Vince is about anything it's illegitimate sons and incest. So in my opinion we should be really scared as to where this leads.

It absolutely could be if they use it to elevate both guys and build a big face and a big heel but you must remember this is wwe and it will probably end in a lot of magical wacky bullshit.

It's a Bray feud. At this point you are if you go in with any expectations beyond "Bray loses at the end". At least that way there's a chance you'll be happily surprised once every 10 feuds

Bray won a feud with Ryback once and then Ryback won the IC title a week later. Does that count?

I'm pretty sure they should just make an adaptation of "Sun Dog" by Stephen King, except instead of a dog in polaroids, it's Luke Harper appearing on Fangoria magazine covers, always just a little bit closer to the foreground each time you look at it.

Don't get me wrong, it's pretty incredible how they've sort of squandered Brock's Conqueror Gimmick in terms of not using it to make anyone else. And it was incredibly stupid to let Cena beat him clean (or whatever was supposed to happen there) in his first match back. I was just pointing out that Cena wasn't part time when that happened in 2012, and I was honestly kind of surprised at the amount of dates Cena kept putting in all the way up to 2015.

Big Coffin Hunter posted:

i don't understand why these figures matter in 2013-2017 unless you're grasping at straws to play devil's advocate
They matter in the sense of John Cena isn't a "part timer" in the way that Lesnar, Undertaker, HHH, Goldberg, etc. were in any year prior to 2016. He may have taken a couple of months off, he may have been perceived as a "part timer", I'm going to assume people are going to groan when he beats Rusev or anyone else for the rest of his career, but he's been a more active wrestler every single year including 2017 than most of the other "part timers" people make jerk off motions towards have been in years.

They couldn't have thought of a better way to put Jason Jordan together than breaking up one of the most exciting tag teams on their roster, stranding his tag-team partner alone on Smackdown with no story, and involving some silly illegitimate son angle?

It makes more sense when you remember the WWE sees tag teams as an inherent waste of talent and money.

Never forget these are the people who repeatedly tried to break up The New Day and The Shield at their peak.

It would probably help if Jim Cornette stopped calling Vince every morning at 9am Louisville time to tell him that tag team wrestling is the best kind of wrestling, the Midnight Express has made more money together than anyone ever has as a singles wrestler, and also please tell peopole that wrestling is real and not fake so we could back to the glory days of the seventies, thank you gently caress you bye.

The idea of breaking up American Alpha is weird to me because it feels like they never did much of anything to begin with.

Not to mention why couldn't it have been an angle where Kurt needs both of them to back him up. Hell you can even do the illegitimate son stuff during that, but there is no point in breaking them up.

I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.
If they push Gable like a singles grappling demon and put Jordan with Angle as the boost to get him over, it's okay.

They won't do either one well, if at all.

Vince hasn't even had a phone for 5 years, and yet every morning still it rings. And every morning he is compelled to answer.

If we'd just pushed Dan Severn Jim Cornette never would've needed anger management.

A lot of the negativity (speaking as someone who's pretty loving negative about the product) is fan mileage. The WWE has been pretty hard on its fans for the last couple of years, it's only recently started to turn that around--like, extremely recently, Wrestlemania was a meh show with some incredibly lame storylines and that was three months ago. Even now that some things are relatively good-to-great you still have some awful stuff like World Champion Jinder Mahal going on to keep that residual fan negativity burning.

On average things are better than they've been in awhile and that's a legitimately great thing, it's just been a long couple years of things mostly being bad and for a lot of people it's gonna take awhile to believe the good isn't temporary.
