Has Not Actually Done Cocaine

bartok posted:

Seemed like a wasted opportunity that the B Team weren't immediately destroyed by Drew and Dolph. As much as I enjoyed the dumb little B Team run they should have always been built to lose the titles in nothing short of a glorified squash match preferably to the Authors of Pain.

I disagree, I like the idea of the B-Team being a couple of goofballs who are actually surprisingly competent in the ring, and was hoping they would hold onto the titles longer(but then with a couple exceptions I tend to prefer WWE when it's goofy rather than serious)

Hot take: The B-Team were an absolute dead end act. Nothing was going to change that.

The guys in it are good but the way they were packaged was absolute trash on a boat.

Like, everything about the act actively mocked you for liking it. And if there was something about it that you liked, like the music, they changed it just to drive home, "Hey stupid, it's a joke, stop liking it."

You don't even have to qualify it as a hot take because you're 100% correct.

Good news, its round robin style, so they'll get to lose to every other team on the list.

Wow someone said Drew Gulak was in the Shield beatdown? That just makes me disappointed he isn't the leader of the anti-shield faction.


Also Mickey James is wrestling Lita................ in 2018............ next year can Evolution be a workhouse event with like 16 of the strongest new in-ring performing females? Enough with this diva poo poo

They were tag team partners back in the DC area a couple of years ago. They've got the same cadence when they talk.

Announced for Super Showdown was Naomi and Asuka vs The IIconics. I'd say congrats to the IIconics, but the hometown curse will most likely strike them. Also they'll go right back to jobbing after Super Showdown anyways. Their gimmick is the goddamn worst, and apparently the only reason they are being pushed right now is for PR purposes in Australia.

I guess they are the only Australian superstars currently.
