Television Tho Prop Grops Throps

3MB were comic relief and WeeLC was MOTYC. Fact.
 
He's not shit on the mic. He doesn't slurr and drives the point home. He works the crowd very well when he switches languages to wind them up further. As a heel he has little to work with by way of promos, especially with the short build up but on the whole he's done quite well on the mic.

His promos are dreadful, he sounds like he needs a strepsil and they follow the same formula every time, 'you people don't respect me, ignorant Americans, Punjabi time'. The only decent idea was stealing the title and speeding off in a limo. The whole thing is a joke that's gone too far, it's funny, but I'm not sure the WWE Championship, the most prestigious title in the company should be used for jokes and cynical attempts to appeal to new markets.

You have to build talent, going from a jobber to winning the title in a month doesn't work with anyone, especially not Jinder Mahal.

Dreadful is massively an overkill. If he's dreadful and repetitive then God knows what Bray Wyatt is/has been for years. He had an angle and he worked on it. There's little else you can physically do in such a short time.

He's far more interesting than Orton as champion and I'm interested to see where it goes. I don't care for where he was a month ago, as long as he keeps me interested and puts over the title, which he's doing.

I kinda agree. But I would have liked this a lot better if they spent a few weeks on building Jinder. Have him beat a few guys like Corbin, Zayn ect and mention that his mindset has changed since his move.

Or the exact opposite, job, job, job, and then boom, champion out of nowhere in a throwaway match, shake shit the feck up and properly catch people off guard.

Like the time Jericho randomly won the title on RAW off HHH, despite the fact he had an upcoming event defence with the Rock. The one they reversed later that night, always thought it was a real waste that they didn't run with it.

I remember that. Poor earl hebner got bullied that night :lol:
 
Raw is officially approaching 2000 Nitro levels now. That Bliss promo even topped the 'Old Day' segment of last year. Horrendous.
 
They're getting Corey Graves involved in storylines for no particular reason now, it's not exactly vintage WWE. Also Dean Ambrose can lose the IC title through disqualification at Extreme Rules, the lunatic fringe, the mad bastard, the isn't he so eccentric Dean Ambrose, just not at a PPV that's called Extreme Rules.
 
I haven't seen the Bliss "this your life Bayley" segment but I'm listening to Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez discuss it and it sounds so bad, so so bad.
 
Yep. Hopefully her and Bliss can use the oppurtunity to produce something fantastic at Extreme Rules to further elevate the division.
Basically Bliss hired some actors to pose as people from Bayley's past and use them to try and taint Bayley's character. The segment itself wasn't that good.
 
I'm still cracking up at that Adam from whatculture video, where he says he'd have booked Alexa Bliss as Sister Abigale. Fecking moron.

Looking forward to seeing the Maharaja tonight :wenger:

Im not. His reign got off to the exact opposite it was supposed to: emphasizing his ethnicity and making it the focus of his drive and why the audience hates him

Ah :(

Pretty shite then. I've been off WWE for a couple weeks and sadly it looks nothing has changed.

It reminds me of when Del Rio fueded with CM Punk. I remember at one Raw, a fan had a sign on TV that said "Cult of Personality vs Cult of an Illegal Alien". I mean seriously, what the feck. Those sorts of signs shouldn't be allowed in the arena let alone put on television.

Funny how WWE has such a diverse fan base but there is a prevalent nativist sentiment at the arenas. I mean the fans literally cheered Enzo for harrassing Rusve's wife.
 
The roster shakeup was meant to make things fresh and fun. Instead its made both shows boring and predictable. Its like they took whoever was writing SD and just replaced him with somebody worse.

205 is pretty much a flop. Putting it after SD to make it live kills it. Crowd doesnt care. And also having it on Raw was silly.
Raw has somehow done a great job of making Finn, just another guy like they did with Rollins.
And SD is doing that with Nakamura. Making him do promos with a mouthguard was silly, and having Ziggler whip his ass for most of the match didnt help either.

Bleh.
 
Watched raw but skipped the bliss part... What happened?

Basically made me embarrassed to still be associated with wrestling. Cringe promo and also killed Bayley's character even more. Seems the WWE is going down the 'virgin' route for Bayley, which reminds me of the whole 'Piggy' James thing a few years back. Took her years to try and rebuild her character after that. Not good.
 
Extreme Rules predictions
Ambrose V The Miz
Bliss
V Bayley
Hardy Boyz V Sheamus and Cesaro
Neville
V Aries
Rich Swann & Sasha V Noam Dar and Fox
Reigns V Rollins V Balor V Joe V Bray Wyatt

I would like Joe or Balor to win as to me they are the best two wrestlers on raw, but I think we get the Battleground 2015 rematch

I agree with all that except think Joe will win the main event.
 
This Lesnar title run (if you can call it that) has been absolutely farcical.
 
Nope. Wouldnt be surprised if he made an appearance tonight mind.

Hes booked in for Great Balls of Fire next month, so needs to start making appearances pretty soon
