Yeah, but Renee making King say that was the worst beatdown in the history of the business has to be called out!

Fucking Schiavone moment.

i mean its not like they'd say "well i guess that was a middle of the road beatdown, nothing too crazy here, just your by the numbers stuff"

it'd be like if they said a wrestler was "at best, maybe like a US champion, definitely not hall of fame worthy. He's okay I guess"

And people wonder why no one wants to post on there. Between the bs casual trolls and spoilers, fuck that thread. I post wherever I want.
Nobody is forcing you guys to post individual OTs for B-grade WWE network specials.
Could just relegate the chatter to the Community thread.

The next Raw PPV is Extreme Rules right?
Roman vs Braun (again) in a non-DQ match can be actually good

I just don't know how they gonna make to let Roman win and still make Braun look strong to face Brock in july (if that really is the current plan)

Most of the time the folks that post those aren't even regulars here from what I've seen. Aside from the big shows like Mania and WK
 
Fucking lol rrrrright the House was Blue because this feud started on Smackdown and Wyatt turned it Red because Wyatt's on Raw now.


LAW guys pointed that out

Nah fuck that, we gotta put our foot down!

I'll take "That was one of the worst that I've ever seen" but don't say it's the absolute worst when you've lived through Undertaker/Mankind, Rock/Mankind, hell, Austin/Rock.

Fucking marks.

I'm liking the suggestion on LAW to book Braun vs. An Ambulance as a match and have him just absolutely destroy the thing.
 
I mean, I'm a Becky mark for life because I legit think she's the best female in-ring talent in the company and, as someone very accustomed to hearing the Irish accent, I don't mind her on the mic at all.

I wouldn't try to drag down other women's achievements/place in the company based on their looks though.
Yeah but I'm not talking about you.


The guy was directly upset that Bliss was getting a better push than Becky though. Like that's what got him on his weird kick.


God they're really gonna have Bray feud with Finn now and have him job clean as a whistle.

Nah rumour is Miz/Balor and Wyatt/Ambrose which might actually be worse

I just thought Wyatt had 'killed' Orton or something at the time. Like the red was meant to mean the house would set on fire.

This is so much better.

Yep yep yep. I fell in love with Becky as a wrestler in her match vs Sasha at Takeover and I've been a fan since, but to say that everyone else is overpushed compared to her, because of their looks, is so totally wrong. Do I wish Becky was in a higher position in the company? Yeah of course. But that's not the fault of the talent around her, they're all great too... besides Natty and Carmella but they aren't doing anything haha

Becky marks getting worked by Alex Bliss in the PPV thread amd it's gross
People are always talking about Bliss being overrated, but the only people I ever see over-reacting to her are her haters.

Now that could be because I don't venture too far outside Wrasslegaf, but most Bliss fans I see round here readily admit to her flaws. But any compliments toward her get blown up to "OMG look at these marks calling Alexa Bliss the best wrestler ever because of funny faces! lolololol"

Like no one said that dude...
 
I hate that Becky's booking is bad but it was like that pre-Alexa. It's just something to accept and not something to blame Alexa for. Becky was being laid out and doing nothing pre brand split too.

Becky vs Alexa was a fun feud and it got Alexa on the map because people love Becky and dislike people who attack her. Great way to establish Alexa.

Nah rumour is Miz/Balor and Wyatt/Ambrose which might actually be worse
Wyatt vs Ambrose again? Oh my fucking god no.
 
Lol so in short LAW guys (including Pollock) liked :

Pretty much every match except House of Horrors

But hate the PPV because Bliss won and House of Horrors sucked

They were even pretty ok with Joe/Rollins


Lol Pollock called House of Horrors the worst match of the decade.

No, I know. I'm just saying, he's not coming from a place of being a misguided mark, he's just an idiot sexist that doesn't understand how pushes work.

My only complaint about Becky's booking is that her reign should've lasted longer and not ended in a god damn table match but otherwise I'm happy a non-Four Horsewoman performer is getting a push. Go Alexa!

I just don't get how someone can say 'women are pushed because of their looks' when every woman on the roster is fucking beautiful.

Did he miss Mania 32?

Yeah I guess he's more a Becky Smark because his hatred for Bliss is based on booking than on screen work.

Becky's booking always being bad shouldn't mean "why bother making it good". Putting people over should be a veteran's job, not the most popular and best in-ring worker on your brand in her prime.

She did do a great job making Alexa good though. Alexa should be buying her dinner every night she holds that title.

You think it because it's true.

Like god, I can't imagine. What's to hope for? A Mania win within a decade? Him not looking like an idiot for a whole feud?

They should just had the entire HoH match out there

WWE gave me the Emma debut but they took away Bray's credibility in return.

Becky's the type of person who can be booked badly but still be very much over. So WWE keep doing it.
