I know I'll get laughed out of the thread, but I feel bad for Reigns. I do think he could be good main even t talent, he is so not ready, the smarks hate him and the lil jimmies and casuals haven't bought in and will not with the lukewarm reception. Someone needs to hit the reset for this push before its too late.

I would say feed him somebody like Rusev and have him get a run with the US Title to see how he fits as a champion

 

[Chamber]

Nattie with that heel behavior. Nikki did nothing wrong there.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Nattie going for the title? Awesome. She can put on a good match.

I like Reigns and could see him being the top guy, just seems undercooked though. Needs more time before strapping the rockets on him (although I guess it's similar to what they did with Rock?).

 

[sf2fanatic]

Lol thikki no selling that fake injury

 

[dakun]

so after this Lesnar reign. Who is a worthy wrestler to get a push for the title except Reigns who'll get it because Vince?


Seth, Ambrose, Cesaro, Rusev, Bray Wyatt, Ziggler... Sting lol

anyway any of those men above would make me happy.

Yes. It's called stop feuding with Big Slow. He needs someone to carry him in his matches.

one word


Repackage.

He's like a beta of a mod for a old classic game that's suppose to be a AAA game.

 

[Fox318]

You're so demanding. Silly millennial. How dare you ask this commentary team to actually call a match? So entitled... tsk tsk tsk.

Vince doesn't care about wrestling.

He cares about having writers and making himself feel like Seth McFarlin

 

[Sou Da]

That was a pretty decent commercial.

i want to like bray but i haven't seen him have a single good match or promo all year

Why move smackdown to Thursday?

 

[UberTag]

Silly Chamber. Questioning why WWE's faces behave like heels when the bad guys do nothing wrong.

 

[Fox318]

That was a pretty decent commercial.

WWE creative clearly had nothing to do with it.

 

[ggnoobIGN]

That schizo looks like a great heel

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Yes. It's called stop feuding with Big Slow. He needs someone to carry him in his matches.

I know the general reaction was tepid for their SummerSlam match, but I thought Orton did a great job carrying him through that.

 

[Gonzalez]

I can't wait for Schizo to make his debut with Glenn Close as his manager!!!

 

[somedevil]

Better day to get more people to watch the show.

So what is going to Main Event? Ziggler vs Harper or Ambrose vs Wyatt?

 

[UberTag]

Ambrose vs. Wyatt seems like their go-to show closing feud whenever Cena or Brock isn't available.
Besides, the IC Title can't go on last. That would make it seem important. Can't have that.

I think they're working on resetting now, but who knows. He literally has no storyline outside of, "I'm Roman and I'm pretty." They're not really giving people a reason to like him. Feuding with Big Show is not strapping the rocket on anyone at all. And it won't matter how they book him, people will complain about anything he does so it doesn't really matter.

 

[Vylash]

THE DOCTORS ARE IN, AND IT'S TIME TO TAKE YOUR MEDICINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WELCOME...TO THE WASTELAND..........

 

[truly101]

Yes. It's called stop feuding with Big Slow. He needs someone to carry him in his matches.

I think Sheamus would be perfect for this. He needs a heel turn, and wrestles a style that I think Reigns could work with. Honestly I'd work Reigns with Sheamus and Barrett at least before turning him onto the title picture. I know Vince thinks all wrestling fans are stupid, but even casual fans won't buy into a fraud, not for long anyway.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

That looked like a 90's toy commercial

 

[abstract alien]

I honestly thought it was a joke for another product.

 

[MC Safety]

You know what will make the Ascension less generic? Facepaint.

 

[MiketheBSG]

Hey look, the Road Warriors are back!

 

[blackaroni]

What in the shit....

 

[aspiegamer]

Crap. Los Whatevers are going to grab an easy win, aren't they?

 

[RP912]

I know the general reaction was tepid for their SummerSlam match, but I thought Orton did a great job carrying him through that.

He was the highlight of that whole match. Dude not only carried him through the match...he burped him, taught him how to walk, talk, and took him to kindergarten.

 

[Fox318]

 

[Sou Da]

Oh god I love Stardust.

 

[dakun]

I think they're working on resetting now, but who knows. He literally has no storyline outside of, "I'm Roman and I'm pretty."

well they had a storyline before he got injured and still do if they chose to. It's against Seth Rollins.

But I'm pretty sure that once Cena moves on from Seth it will be a Reigns vs. Rollins feud.

 

[Frecklestein]

What?

On total divas, Nattie bought new underwear to spice up her sex life, Tyson was watching a Bryan match on TV and she just stood there in her underwear while he was petting their cat and was oblivious to her existence.

 

[Chamber]

Yes. It's called stop feuding with Big Slow. He needs someone to carry him in his matches.

Needs to be carried in his matches, can't cut a promo, still going to main event Wrestlemania.

 

[truly101]

Hey look, the Road Warriors are back!

Growing up in the 80's I have a soft spot for bruiser teams like the Ascension. They need a manager really bad though, and maybe a better finisher.

 

[UberTag]

Crap. Los Whatevers are going to grab an easy win, aren't they?

Kids in the crowd love it when the midgets get to win a match. It makes them feel strong and powerful.
It's why Rey Mysterio was over for so long.

even goldberg had to run with the US title before being catapulted

You would expect that from someone who's been wrestling for 10 plus years, right?

well they had a storyline before he got injured and still do if they chose to. It's against Seth Rollins.

But I'm pretty sure that once Cena moves on from Seth it will be a Reigns vs. Rollins feud.

Yeah, I noticed they're not putting him near Rollins at all.

 

[RP912]

Meltzer with them truth bombs.

Ambrose vs Wyatt is the street fight so it should go on last right?

yeah, Reigns needs a midcard title to run with for a big, tag titles don't count since he was hidden and just came in for the big spots while Rollins did everything else

Well we know of at least one person who wants it this way:

 

[Judderman]

...So dumb.

 

[RP912]

technically...reigns had a tag title run if that counts.

But still...yeesh...this push is miserable as hell.
