I hope super high because the Rollins Era has been garbo. Anything and anyone to end it. Brooklyn Brawler would be acceptable.

Watching NXT episode of April 29... its Brooke's second match and while she's still learning that trade she already has her character down pat. Its great. CFO$ hot as fire theme fits her like a glove, and the theatrics when she makes her entrance are great. I'm amazed she nails that flip thing she does all the time so far...

She's got a great character with less-than-stellar ring work, hopefully she'll improve
People were really afraid that they'd push her really hard from the get-go but she got trounced in that feud with Charlotte. like, 0 for 3 in matches against her
Not too bad a poster.
They really should have let him win at WM though. This would carry more weight if he had.

What's crazy is that Dana looked better than Charlotte and Becky in the 4 way. Charlotte in particular looked so lost the entire time.

Charlotte is a good wrestler, but she has no real sense for how to build character in or out of the ring.

I can't lie, I want to see Sting win. Rollins did his thing and it was what it was. He's got his statue in WWE HQ now, but it's time for some experience in the mid-card.
Mongo is a fan of the ass biz.

I think those that are harping on Seth's moveset don't understand his character. He's the child, trying to show off and gain attention and approval from his parents HHH and Steph. Sorry Orton and Sheamus ruined heels for ya'll brahs.
This is your fault.
That would work if there was ANYONE else vying for their affection.

I'm glad I have a new avatar before the R Mika trailer dropped. That design is so embarrassing.

Look, I like Seth Rollins, I do, but the guy is a mid-carder until he learns to grow up and learn how to present himself properly. I'm not saying he has to laser off the spine tattoo, but I highly suggest it.
If you had just accepted Kane into your heart this never would have happened.

"I just love Riley Reid's work, yanno?"
Not familiar with that name. How's her workrate?

In that tattoo video with Corey Graves he openly admits to listening to KoRn, which is fine, he was a kid. But they both talk about A Day to Remember in this oddly reverent tone. It's clear he still hasn't learned a fucking thing.

Ah, she works the indies, a lot of intergender handicap matches. She's pretty good.

I think Rollins has a really great reign in him, but he ascended at the worst possible time in terms of energy and interest in the product, got absolutely shit on in terms of the creative side, and is wrestling in an era where almost everybody has to be an indie shithead with "teh movez" instead of being allowed to really be a heel and fuck with the crowd.
Honestly, I think almost everyone on the roster could stand to take a few lessons from Randy Orton in terms of learning how to completely inhabit a character. Heel Orton has so many little physical tics and mannerisms for the savvy viewer to pick up on, it's nuts. I know Rollins will always be "Tyler Black" and feel like he has to live up to that pedigree, but if he was going to be a shithead heel champion, he should have wrestled more like Orton or HHH, and only slowly worked some of the high-flying stuff into his act when he was ready to turn face.
As it stands, I think the best path for Rollins is an Okada-like redemption arc where he gets busted down the card and has to wrestle his way back up, so he can emerge as a flippy-dippy Edge-like opportunistic face somewhere down the line.

That would be her father. I'm hoping that, since it's a much larger crowd than he's normally around, he won't be able to get his terrible chants started at RAW in Tampa on Monday.
I'm also glad that Instagram photo captures my look of disbelief at how much attention the wrestlers give that kid.
