The Wrestling Thread Has Been Canceled tonight. Be'lee Dat

Someone over at the wrestlecrap forums last year posted what the Cena vs Rusev feud might be like. some miner changes it seems pretty accurate:

 

[TheFuture]

They'd need to come with a humdinger of a storyline to get me into Bryan against Ziggler. I mean I love Bryan, he's still my top guy, but what would be the motive behind their face off? To see who the better man is? There's something cheeseball about that and both guys deserve better.

#1 contender for World Title. Might as well roll with fan frustration and making something out of it.

They should do it like AJ Styles vs. Tetsuya Naito from WK9 where it's just a standard singles match just to see who the better man is and in a way, see who the #1 contender is without making it so obvious. Bryan never really lost the Title so he still has a rematch clause.

Bryan and Ziggler are going to steal the show Savage / Steamboat style as their middle finger to management.

Unless weapons are added, the main event will not be good. Reigns can't carry a match to save his life and Lesnar isn't a ring general.

Simple. Both feel they deserve to be in the main event over Roman Reigns. They felt they should have won the Royal Rumble. Each feels that they are the 'Peoples Champ/Choice".

Bryan's pitch would be, "I worked my @$$ off dealing with Kane and the authority and went through all the obstacles to become WWE champion last year. I didn't just do it to prove to myself I could do it. I did it for the WWE Universe to prove that if you put your mind to it, you can achieve greatness (people begin to chant YES, YES, YES!)Plus I never lost the titles,so they don't belong to Brock or Roman...they belong to me."

Ziggler's pitch would be, "Well, while you were convalesing (sp?) at home I was here in this ring stealing the show from those same cowards that put you out of action in the first place. You know what Danny B, I never agree with the Authority but they may be right about one thing...maybe you are just a B+ player."

Well the narrative that they seem to be going with on twitter is stealing the show to stick it to the authority and give back to their fans because they both know they deserve better. That interests me because it's different but simple. It doesn't have to be a super elaborate story for me as long as it is built well and given ring time.

I don't think the WWE will go with that angle, because then they're basically saying their own uppercard at WM is weak (which it looks like it will be, but it's bad for the company to admit that).

awwwwww shucky ducky QUAAACK QUAAAAAAAACK

They probably think that by making Bryan and Ziggler present the feud this way, they'll get the fans to get it all out of their system before the main event so fans will feel like they got a "payoff" of sorts.

 

[sweetre15]

Oh and it looks like WWE is also progressing this Bryan/Ziggler angle on WWE.com: http://www.wwe.com/inside/dolph-ziggler-daniel-bryan-wrestlemania-31-challenge-27054036

Watched NXT.

First contract signing I've ever seen that didn't end in a fight.

I like how Owens is being portrayed as a guy who is fighting to earn for himself and his family. Not a one dimensional heel.

The Adrian Neville/Tyson Kidd match was good.

Solomon Crowe tease?

 

[PacificBoy]

The match will happen. Bryan and Ziggler have an incredible 15 min back and forth before Kane and Big Show stomp into the ring and beat them senseless. After which they farmer-lift their unconscious bodies backstage.

I imagine in person Suzuki is either one of the most respectable guys you could meet, or the most terrifying. With absolutely no middle ground.

According to guys like AJ Styles, Kyle O'Reilly, and even Daniel Bryan....it's surprisingly the former.

 

[sweetre15]

Now because I'm just curious, If you were in charge of the casting of a Wyatt Family movie, who would you guys cast as Sister Abigail as a young adult and in her older years?

If it were me, I'd honestly cast Lily Rabe and Jessica Lange from AHS respectively, Jessica Lange solely off of AHS season 3 and Lily Rabe based on her versatility in every season she's appeared in.

If done with care and effort, that movie would be interesting and I can say the same about a movie about Taker and Kane.

NOAH just got so much more interesting now.

Management will ruin the match because they will have Kane and Big Show interfere because Vince is a petty and jealous megalomaniac.
