Reigns

We are fans of the product brah, just fans. WWE is basically saying "*bleep* you we don't care who you like, this is our guy and we will make him win NO MATTER WHAT" That's what upsets us.

I'm aware brah I just find myself not caring, they have always done this lol. It's just there was more talent spread around that people liked so it was quickly forgotten about.

Also the fans who are angry at Reigns are directing their anger at the wrong guy, not his fault he's being pushed too quickly and the lines written for him are awful.

I feel bad for Reigns too. I always liked him, all three of The Shield were favorites of mine but WWE just shoved Reigns down out throats too hard.

And they did not really always do this. The only major one I recall is pushing Diesel over Shawn Michaels way back. The Rumble winners from Attitude Era to Ruthless Aggression were Austin, Vince (heel and it was obvious he won't main evenWrestlemania over Austin lol), Rock, Triple H, Lesnar, Benoit, Batista etc. All of these face were organically over and everyone loved them. I actually compared Bryan to Batista in 05. Everything was building up to Batista vs HHH and the fans ver salivating to see it, just like Bryan finally winning the title. Imagine if Kevin Nash came back and won instead of Batista, setting up HHH vs Nash just like Orton vs Batista. Fans would shit on that just liked they shat on Batista last year.

I'm just surprised it took this fcking long for a backlash like that.

It's been the same old shit for like a decade+ with a fcking joke as the face of the company.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the amazing title match? That was one of if not the best triple threat match I have ever seen.

by RealGunner Mon 26 Jan - 9:29

RAW cancelled tonight due to the snow storm

Easily. Despite Lesnar being overbooked(understandable though), it was a fantastic match. 4.5 star at least. All 3 played their role perfectly. Rightfully getting worldwide plaudits

Hell yeah. Come on dude, try not hate everything which has Cena associated with it Razz

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Mon 26 Jan - 9:32

I haven't actually watched the triple threat or the PPV at all but I read that people were saying Cena was kind of a 3rd wheel and a bit pointless.

Is that true? In any case I always did like Rollins, was my favourite of the 3 shield members.

by Freeza Mon 26 Jan - 9:33

It was great. WWE has more talent than it's had since attitude era imo, they're just retarded not to use it right.. This booking Laughing

Lesnars double suplex Proud

Rollins

Is it in New York? Both NBA games tonight in New York have been cancelled due to a snow storm.

It's the Lesnar angle I didn't like. Made no sense at all. Broken rib?

Rollins put on a show (nice to see him use his old finisher from his indie days)........ but you can't help thinking, why isn't he and many others allowed to utilize their entire skill-set more often.

I really can't agree that it has more talent, but I will agree that the wrestlers hands are tied by how crap the booking and writing are so it's hard to compare.

During an additional press conference with local media, Connecticut Connecticut Governor Dan Malloy was asked about the status of tonight's Raw taping.

Malloy acknowledged that as of now, that even was apparently still taking place, but commented, "As important to the world economy as wrestling is, public safety tops it."

The XL Center in Hartford, where Raw is scheduled to broadcast, does not appear to anyone currently answering phones regarding the status of the broadcast. Their last social media posts from last night state that the event is still scheduled.

How?

He went on to perform X amount of German Suplexes with the broken rib AND a F-5 showing minimal damage.

It made no sense.

A broken rib (no matter who you are) drastically limits your ability to bend and lift.

by Freeza Mon 26 Jan - 9:41

Lesnar could lift a truck with a broken back though

No I meant that it makes sense as in WWE is building up Reigns to Spear and smash his ribs. It's all about Reigns now. Ziggler, Bryan, Ambrose and logic goes over the top rope for now.

With this type of booking, yes.

Would have made more sense had he made someone tap-out instead.

Still, during the 'broken rib' Lesnar switched sides on which rib was broken. Laughing

It looked weird.

by M99 Mon 26 Jan - 9:48

I think Rollins kinda botched it. He hit his head on Cena's arm. Reminded me of Brock's shooting star on Wrestlemania 19.

Can't blame him since he performed the move after like 5 years.

by Onyx Mon 26 Jan - 9:50

Gonna rewatch the rumble ffs, those boos are music to my ears. Proud

Also, Bryan needs to get a serious trim.

Looking ridiculous.
