You Do Your Annoying, Unorthodox Thing That You Do In The Wrestling Thread

[Dr. Evil]

John Cena was mentioned on the show "Dish Nation" and basically, he's clean shaven from the chest down.

Nia also happens to have a super famous movie star cousin, who the WWE will do anything to kiss his ass (and rightfully so).

Isn't Tamina his relative, too?

And I don't see how Total Divas requires the WWE to put the belt on Banks for a week. Bliss could have just as easily retained.

Tamina, The Usos, Roman Reigns and basically every Samoan Pro wrestler except Samoa Joe are his cousins, but not by blood. I think Nia is his cousin by blood.

I believe that Peter Maivia was a "blood brother" to the grandfather of the others, meaning not technically related by blood.

The Rock has tweeted more about Nia than his other cousins.

I've been waiting for Jax to get a push towards the title so I'm fine with all of this. Tired of Banks anyway these days due to her **** booking.

Also, Elias Samson (I still remember that last name WWE) is ****ing awesome and I hope he gets himself a midcard title sometime soon.

Haha.....oh Sasha you poor woman. What a farce, she's almost in a position that Bayley should be as the downtrodden yet plucky babyface.

****ing hell what a farce.

The WWE Women's Division really misses heel Charlotte.

 

[Broseph44]

So the 2 Raw competitors that is on fire now, Joe and Braun are no where to be seen.....

Joe is out with a knee injury. Could be up to 4 weeks.

 

[Darkness Falls]

hard to back sasha holding the title because this is now the 4th time she has lost the title in her first defense

ridiculous short term booking

 

[Pink Ranger]

Hi guys. Just so you know, you won't be seeing me comment on Raw for the next 6 weeks or so; I am enrolled in a new night class Monday nights.

The Cena and Reigns promo was very good. Interesting if all legit too. If Vince seriously let Cena bury Roman like that, that may suggest Vince is souring on him. And Cena is right. If Roman could get over, Vince have to rely on Cena to keep coming back.

Not sure where this is going. Ultimately if Vince still backs Roman for the future, Cena has to put him over. The only place to do that is WrestleMania, let's be honest. So what.... Cena wins at No Mercy? then they trade wins at PPVs up until Mania? Please God don't let it be for the title....

 

[javonstokess]

If they wanted to go with Bliss/Jax, why not do it at SummerSlam? Who exactly does this help?

The answer is the small blond chick. Sucks cause I actually like Alexa Bliss, but what they continue to do to Sasha Banks is ridiculous.

I'll maintain that Vince just doesn't like darker skinned woman/men as champions and when they are "pushed" they are immediately discredited. Even Naomi; once she got the belt she had no good feuds and the only real title defenses were against Lana. The one time she feuds with a credible wrestler, she loses (to another blond chick).

Just ridiculous...

 

[javonstokess]

Haha.....oh Sasha you poor woman. What a farce, she's almost in a position that Bayley should be as the downtrodden yet plucky babyface.

****ing hell what a farce.

I mean, even Bayley got a couple of chances to defend her title. Wasn't Bayley's title run like 3-4 months? I don't think Sasha has broken 3 weeks yet.

That was the best segment on RAW and, if the show wasn't soured by the ME, would have me feeling very different about the overall show.

Cena buried Reigns not because he wanted to, but because it was clear Reigns was reciting lines (that he clearly forgot a couple of times during his promo) and Cena was spitting off the top. It was a massacre LOL

I remember reading somewhere that that family basically "owns" Vince.

FOUR TIMES IN A ROW!! They've done this FOUR TIMES IN A ROW to Sasha now, they're just REFUSE to give her a real title reign. What was the point of taking the title off of Alexa if she was just going to win it back two weeks later.

Oh that's right, because WWE is bound and determined to ensure that NONE of their babyfaces have any credibility/look good.

And it's even worse since they had Alexa draw attention to the fact that Sasha has never successfully defended that title even once, and then had her WIN!! It's like with Becky and Bayley before her, they let Alexa insult the babyface on the mic, and then prove her right in the end by having her win in the end, it's ridiculous.

And the sad part is, I knew this was coming. I knew that they were going to bull this crap again, because they always do.

 

[Mani-Man]

I hope you all watch the Mae Young Classic Tournament...its really good.
So far the first 4 episodes delivered what i was hoping.

Raw not so much. XD

im not into the Reigns/Cena feud at all...but as long as we dont have it at WM im okay with it.
Cena on the mic of course 100 times stronger than Reigns, Reigns simply lacks that natural charisma that guys like Cena or Rock have.
Im still baffled that Sid Vicious said that Reigns is lightyears ahead of Kevin Owens...that is absolutly lunatic to think.

Cena always had the privilege that others dont have sadly.
He is free to speak, doesnt need to go after lines etc while the rest has to.
And that is like giving one guy a loaded gun while the other has to built it first.

People always put Cena on such a high horse while forgetting that very few are allowed to do promos freely.
Just look at some of the guys who were on Talking Smack and then look at them in the shows.

Cena is a great talker, i dont like him being goofy most of the time because when you look at the few promos he did where he was serious and all that...you can see that he is fantastic.
But people should be realisitc and admit that a lot of the guys nowadays get held back.
Just look at Owens, let the guy off the leash and he even rips John Cena apart.

Anyway...
The whole Main event was dumb because it was unnecessary as hell.
You could have done this at the ppv or with a celebration of Alexa as retaining champ...there was no need for Sasha to win the title or lose it yet again in a Raw show.
It doesnt help anybody really.

This is stuff that makes me hope that they really go with the plan HHH has for Asuka on Raw.
The title needs to stay with someone and needs different people fighting over it.
Always having the same 3 woman fight over it doesnt do that much...you need to expand the womans roster and give it more depth, variety etc.

What makes it worse is it was a CLEAN win with an unremarkable finish. It's frickin' ridiculous to kill all credibility to your stars. Austin won matches and had decent title reigns. Same with the Rocks. Same with Hogan. Hell, Trish Stratus had lengthy title reigns as the top face.

But Lesnar can hold the title forever and barely do anything...

 

[Loki882]

You know what bugs me most of all here, WWE's constantly making Alexa look right. Seriously, she goes out there, belittles/insults the babyfaces constantly, makes claims about them "not being worthy" and how she's so much better than them. And then in the end, she wins and is proven RIGHT!!

It happened to Becky (who going on a year out now still hasn't recovered booking-wise from it), it happened to Bayley, and now it's happened to Sasha.

You don't just beat your faces, you make them look pathetic in the process.

 

[Angryfantasyfan]

The WWE Women's Division really misses heel Charlotte.

It misses good booking even more. Remember during the Divas Revolution when we were getting two quality women's matches every Raw? That's what got the division over.

I'd honestly would rather see Asuka on SmackDown Live than RAW, she'd be much better on there! Besides, everyone wants to see her face off against Charlotte anyway. As for the main event last night on RAW, you're right it, was a bust, the only thing that saved the ending was Nia Jax's face turn. I'm hoping WWE Creative won't continue to play 'hot potato' with the RAW Women's title and won't make it contagious to the SmackDown Live women's division. This is why I said before that all the Women need their own wrestling show after the Mae Young Classic is done and over with, put all the ladies from RAW, SmackDown and NXT (but still appear on their brands), put the ladies (that were actually signed) from the Mae Young Classic and put some old familiar faces (like Lita, Trish Stratus, Ivory, Jacqueline, etc.) and there you have your "all-women's wrestling show".

 

[javonstokess]

I'm not sure I trust WWE to do a women's only show. Vince and Co. are just addicted to seeing blond white women rule the division.
