Sure, and a lot of that comes down to look. Bryan wasn't just short, he was bearded and scruffy and not a monster. He didnt have an impressive physique so Vince can't see way anyone would rally behind him despite his tremendous likability and understated charisma. They boiled it down to a chant and nothing more. Bayley looks like an average girl, they can't understand why fans, especially young girls would rally behind her, so lets make her look out of place and socially inept. Zayn is just DB 2.0, same thing.

As someone who was once in the "Putting Bayley on the main roster is foolproof" camp, boy I sure look silly. Actually very impressed with how hard they dropped the ball.
Fucking finally we get to see Nakamura. The guy is getting treated better than Lesnar ffs. Its a shame he has to go against crappy Ziggler tho. Hopefully he brings out the best in him.
The rest of the card is really good. Only disappointment is the womens tag stuff. Way too much talent there to be wasting it on meaningless matches.

These days it seems people only get popped for weed. They dont give a fuuuuck about PED's anymore.

Can you import this?
Weed is a fine not a strike.
That's all from dieting, jabroni.

Between Neville and Jinder, being on the juice is a plus for going after a belt and being pushed.

Wait til you see how ripped you are after a week of these.
Kevin Owens ripped.
He's cultivating mass.
Can't hinder Juicy Jinder.

Now I miss India
The Veg Maharaja Mac is delicious.
Also this idea that WWE is pushing Jinder Mahal for Indian audience is absurd. India is full of marks. They would hate a heel even if he is Indian. If they wanted a push in India, they would have gone with a face push, even a midcard face push would have been fine.
TNA tried this with Sonjay Dutt and one more dude.

Is the gyno and bacne from dieting as well

If Juicy Jinder doesn't win this was all for nothing
Both Nakamura and Jinder get pinned clean tonight. Vince wins.
It's one of those alternative diets
this is great
If this leads to Rusev getting the next shot then let it happen.
pretty done

poor RVD
The gyno was one thing but dudes acne is getting fucking atrocious nowadays. Like it's actually so bad he might get popped and reset.
There is a difference between testing positive for a WWE test and getting pulled over by the cops while champion and being arrested for speeding and carrying marihuana.

Did it work for Khali?
Mic skills are 1000000x better than Reigns

Khali was super over in India even as a monster heel
No way. Reigns' booking is worse and his writing is bad, but his pure mic skills are way better than Jinder has shown his to be over the last month.

You want Jinder to stiff The Big Show? Show would immediately go backstage and cry to Vince after the match. Jinder is smart he only stiffs people with no potential or backstage powers.

Becky is great, wtf
Bayley, on the other hand, is worse than Enzo in the ring.
