I'm saying he doesn't look cool, intimidating or a wrestler.
He certainly doesn't look like a wrestler but he looks like an horrible adult workplace bully, which is exactly what he's going for.

And yet he's awesome.

I'm excited to see what comes of the tag division with New Day and the women's division with Charlotte.
He's a great worker and a great talker, which is more important.
I really hope this roster for Smackdown pays off like it has the potential to.

"He's a complete bully and cunt unless you're friends with him. That's just JBL"
Of course, Lawler. Shocker.
I disagree, he looks somebody who would be bullied.
He's fantastic but this look hampers him imo
I think actually that works even better because deep down those people know Canada has been better.
It plays to the insecurities of Americans. I know it would never happen but I'd love for KO to start making people question their loyalty. Like, go to a black person and ask them "You love this country but does it love you back?"
He can't change how his face looks. Not sure how much a different haircut would help.
Seems to me like someone higher up mandated Orton having the belt but the writers know who they actually want to build the show around.
They could be fighting for a piece of tin foil but I'd rather watch KO/AJ/Zayn/Nak that Orton and his prestigious WWE Championship
Exactly.

Damn that actually sounds likely.
Orton is weird because when he pops up at first the crowd goes crazy, but during his matches and promos everyone is dead. And then they pop for the RKO.

Lawler-Logic: "Hey, guys, I beat my women, but once you get to know me, I'm a great guy!"
What about Elias Samson?
He has star presence and the RKO is over.
Shit on the mic, and predictable in the ring.

Goodbye, I can't do this.
Well yeah at that point i always guessed guys like Orton or Cena have title run cause it's somewhere in their contract.. Same when Batista won the RR, or obviously Lesnar and Goldberg.
What?
I don't like him... El Vagabundo on the other hand, now THAT guy is money.
Orton doesn't feel like the champion. This feud with Wyatt started interesting and then shat the bed. Now he looks like an afterthought.
Orton coasts on his looks and athletic ability. The guy can't make a match interesting or cut a promo.
He does cool shit in the ring but his pace is a snoozer.

Yes. Well, almost perfect, I'll still miss Alexa.
Sweet fucking Jesus. I guess those movies do absolutely rake it in both domestically and internationally, but god damn.

Not with that attitude , you can't. What's your glitch today?
Alexa is being sent off to pasture to meet her end at the hands of Nia.

They hinted at an alliance... Bliss as Nia's talker could actually work.
For now. Nia will turn on her at some point. Rest in pieces Alexa.

I missed the conversation but was Finn hurt?

Best or second best (depending on how much you value Charlotte on the stick) talker in the women's division of either brand and maybe top 10 talkers in the company right now period...
I get it she's no workrate machine but there are other valuable assets.
Hinder Jinder concussed him with a hard elbow to the head.
No report on how long he might be out for.
Good thing is, being as small and light as Alexa is, there's a chance that being dropped on her head by Nia won't cause real damage.
#Pray4Alexa
Jinder fucked up real bad and is now one of my most disliked wrestlers. And I'm not even a Balor fan.

Unbelievable. This is surreal. Poor guy.
You can talk all day but if I don't want to see you wreslte it doesn't matter.

Alexa will one day be, based on her out of character interviews a fantastic babyface... I can see Alexa finally defeating the giant Nia being a pretty decent story a literal David vs Goliath... The match will probably suck but if I watched Alexa for her wrestling I'd have stopped watching Alexa ages ago.
I mean that's not true but whatever, you do you.
Bliss is decently over despite her in ring greeness (and she's getting better)
It wasn't even a risky spot, it was straight up an elbow to the back of the head.
That would be dumb.
Nia would be a much better fit as a face, and Alexa as a face seems awful.
So what you explained is exactly what will happen.
SomewhatGroovy

Yeah I saw it.
Thing about these head injuries is that if he gets tested and they determine this his brain is at risk, he could be gone for months.
Man, this sucks and has bummed me out. I'm not a fan of the character but Finn seems like a genuinely great person and this is not what you want for anyone in the back.

Face Alexa sounds like face Charlotte. It wouldn't work at all.

Kind of worried about face Charlotte. She went from being a , what, 5 time champion with a PPV streak to be reduced to a losing streak and jobbing to Nia. Having her play nice on top of it all would just be a bad move imo.
She needs to be an anti-hero face if they're going to go that way. Only way it'll work.

I can agree with that. She needs an edge of sorts.
