I disagree with the idea that WWE just has no idea how to book women. WWE has no idea how to book anyone.

Fluffy Bunnies posted:I just disagree because the storytelling is poo poo. But uh, that's a bit cyclical all said and told. I really doubt you'll ever get a fantastic women's division in WWE and it's not just Dunn or whatever. They just have no idea how to write these women. Its almost certainly a Dunn and Vince problem. You have two very interesting stories going on in NXT right now, and they are both spotlighted well, on top of NXT having less TV time in general. You have Yim/Baszler as the title program which is admittedly cold/lukewarm at best, but still better than the main roster title programs by a wide margin. And then you have Shirai/LeRae, which has a decent amount of heat, and one could argue is more interesting than the actual title program. And then waiting in the wings you have Dakota, Tegan, and Bianca ready (or almost ready) to slide into storylines down the line. DarkstarIV fucked around with this message at 13:15 on Jul 23, 2019 |

I'll give you Shirai/LeRae (which I like a lot), but Yim/Baszler is just kind of what I expect from Raw these days. Bianca should moving in soon. It may be Dunn/Vince at the top, but that group of writers also just has no idea what they want to do with anybody. Hence: rare Magic card l00k posted:I disagree with the idea that WWE just has no idea how to book women. yeah, this.

HHH continuing his sad laughable attempts to be cool when the last DX run was loving awful and "the Club" really isn't anywhere close to their former selves. Watching the old Machine Gun/Devitt stuff and their promos about "PUTTIN' A BAG ON HIS FOOKIN HEAD AND PULLING THE TRIGGER" they were so loving great and I wish they would lean into ice-cold killer Balor since he has more manic charisma than AJ, who has more of a sarcastic careless heel attitude. Balor is the guy you want for the chief villain.

"If anybody has a problem with me being the 24/7 Champion they can take it up to my face, because I won't be Champion very long!" ..That's from the raw recap and that can't be right, right? That sounds so atrocious.

She said it, but it was because the storyline was that she was intending to dump the title in the trashcan like she did the WWF Women's Title back in the mid-90s. Meltzer pointed out on the latest WOR just how pathetic it is that Vince is still hung up on that even after all this time, and how thin-skinned he is despite doing far worse far more often to far more people over the decades himself.

I remember asking several months ago in the questions thread "why do people still watch this horrific dogshit" and got a kind of defensive/flippant "different people like different things" response so I would like to ask again why do people still watch this horrific dogshit if you're in it to see how bad the trainwreck can get between now and october then yeah sure I guess, it just seems like a lot of time to invest in a bad tv show to laugh at the old man with dementia ruining his own company

"Well I always watch this, can't change my routine!" I admit when I stopped watching, the first week my brain was trying to tell me "you're supposed to be watching wwe right now" but that went away very quickly.

austin sucking the collective cock of the wwe was one of the saddest things that i have ever watched, the attitude era finally died for me and i dont want to see scsa on tv anymore. between his dogshit promo and his segment with the old fucks seth rollins is a loving loser. nobody cares or remember about loving alundra blyze, its madusa miceli for fucks sake also right now the wwe legit doesnt have anything over aew, their titles are worthless, their feuds are idiotic or heatless, their tag team division is a joke, their women division is like what 4 people right now? its loving scary also nxt doesnt do anything that njpw does except worse DoctorGonzo fucked around with this message at 16:17 on Jul 23, 2019 |

TV's never been better imo Sundays I have Euphoria (and for one more week this year NOS4A2), Mondays I have Legion, Tuesdays I have Pose. And that's just this season! The rest of the year has premieres of Creepshow, The Witcher, Harley Quinn, Watchmen, The Mandalorian, and of course AEW that I'm excited for all of, and that's just stuff that's premiering
