Ziggler: Ziggles is god.

Eve: No.

Ted DiBiase: It's nice that he went the Ryder route and got fans by himself, but he's devoid of anything interesting and so far below his father it's not funny. No more.

Chris Jericho: jeritroll.gif

Hunico: He's pretty good in the ring, outside of the mask, but his gimmick is BALLS. He'll never go anywhere without a new one.

Wade Barrett: Talked about him above, he's great.

Rey Mysterio: He's almost at retirement, why is he on this list?

Zack Ryder: Should settle into a comfortable mid card role now that he's over.

Cody Rhodes: This past year as a real heel has done wonders for his wrestling skill and his mic skill, he's ready for the main event

Sheamus: He's got good in ring skills, good mic skills, is over, and a great unique look. He'll be easy main event material with a few good feuds

Kane: Cena fodder. Close to retirement.

R-Truth: Will not get what he deserves, which is a main event push (imagine crazy heel Truth as WWE Champion). He'll be ruined into a lame midcard catchphrase slinging face. Which is exactly what he was before his heel turn.

 

[Perspicacity]

The Big Show is over as face right now. Also, Bryan was booed at last friday smackdown before there match, but it was edited out to keep him a face for now. His mic work right now is alot better than when they had him as a face.

Err, they kept the boos in and I think his actions at the end of the show pretty well put him into heel category.

 

[Ultratech]

I think they're missing out on a fairly obvious first story for Bryan as champ, just turn Big Show heel and have it as a standard David/Goliath thing. It would get Bryan over with the crowd more, and give him credibility if he beat Big Show clean with submissions.

I think he'll be a hilarious heel, but at the same time, I do NOT want another cowardly weakling type champion. It's a waste of Bryan's talents in the ring AND on the mic, and will never build any credibility for the champion or the championship.

Just make him a super arrogant troll and seemingly unimposing champion who is lethal in the ring and can make anyone tap out with ease.

Easy.

Such a brilliant idea. A shame it probably won't happen.

I'm the only person here who likes Jinder Mahal, try to out-contrarian me now... marks. #heel

I'm a Jinder fan too.

 

[Perspicacity]

I'm gonna call it right here right now. Jinder Mahal is someone to look out for in 2012.

It'll be a while yet, but you guys will turn around on him and appreciate him in the way you do Sheamus.

I'm a Jinder fan too.

Ziggler will have a 2 month World title reign in 2012.

I'm not gonna hold my breath.

The "evil foreigner" role these days is generally a complete dead end.

Heath Slater is the next big thing


....PFFFFFFFFT

Yeah I agree, I can't remember the last entertaining one. Not even Hassan.

What are the odds that we start tonight's show with Jericho's music, only to have him repeat last week's antics? I'd be all for it I have to say.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

I am 95% sure he's going to repeat last week's antics. And again. And again. Until when the crowd hears his music, they boo. They're going to milk this until everyone hates him, then he can shine.

 

[Brinbe]

Ziggler: This is definitely his year.

Eve: Don't care.

Ted DiBiase: Really don't care.

Chris Jericho: <3 <3 <3 Trollicho... my hero.

Hunico: Don't care.

Wade Barrett: I'm hot and cold on him. I think he's fine most of the time, but I get kind of bored watching him. Not as high on him as others. But he's an obvious rising star.

Rey Mysterio: Probably getting set-up for a good run when he gets back.

Zack Ryder: Backlash is probably a bit warranted. Will have to work and change things up if he wants to continue his push.

Cody Rhodes: Probably in my personal top 3 in the company. Hopefully, it'll be his year too, along with Zigs.

Sheamus: Seems to be in his lane now, which is someone who can effortlessly stride between upper mid-card and as main event fodder, when needed.

Kane: Obviously being set-up to get beat by Cener, but hopefully there'll be something memorable in-store for what should be his last run.

R-Truth: Already ruined, his face Jimmy gimmick already annoys me, just not the same... But he's basically in the same position as Sheamus. Don't really see him moving up or down.

 

[Ithil]

Yeah I agree, I can't remember the last entertaining one. Not even Hassan.

Well, just look at Sheamus, Barrett and, ahem, Drew McIntyre. When Sheamus was a heel, his heel cred came from him being a psycho who beat the crap out of people, and Barrett, what part of him being British comes into him being a heel? Apart from having the accent, all his his heel...ness, comes from his slimy character. And McIntyre, er, well, if he was on TV as a heel he wouldn't have any Scottish heel things, he'd just be a heel that has an accent too.

They were heels, without resorting to the ever dated "evil foreigner" nonsense. Of course, they're all white, and have "cool" accents from the audience's fairly limited perspective, so it's not so hard.

 

[Kaladin]

The way McIntyre says Teddy every week makes him a heel to me.

 

[Professor Beef]

Part me of believes that mentioning dolphins is a subtle nod to Paul London.

"Hello."

 

[Spider from Mars]

Heath Slater is the next big thing


....PFFFFFFFFT

Hey, Slater is going to win the rumble and one man rock band all over wrasslemania

 

[Ithil]

"Hello."

SEND FOR THE MAN!

 

[Kaladin]

Hey, Slater is going to win the rumble and one man rock band all over wrasslemania

One man southern rock band.

 

[G-Fex]

nope, he'll get eliminated by Hornswoggle...AGAIN

Why does everyone else get FE'd except Hornswoggle? WHY OH WHY?

 

[Kaladin]

He's Vince McMahon's kid, remember?

 

[Ithil]

Because he's a midget.

That's funny, right?

Short people?

We should laugh at comedy short people because they were born short.

Be a star and laugh at the short people.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Vince is Pro-Little People. Remember when he had midget matches on Raw?

 

[G-Fex]

Oh snap...oh wait I doubt anyone remembers that stupid angle now.

....yeah how's that working out for Hogan's "Wrestling show"?

 

[Ithil]

Hogan is a legend. He was really famous.

Famous people are famous forever.

We should be giving him everything because he's a legend and was famous and popular a long time ago.

If he wants short people wrestling, we should give him all our money and attention.

After all.

He's a legend.

 

[Spider from Mars]

So, since under the ring is hell, does Hornswoggle live in hell, or is he hells next door neighbor? How did he survive that blast last monday?

 

[BoboBrazil]

Remember yesterday when I said TNA doesn't care about ppv and they will have a rematch at the Impact tapings with Jeff Hardy winning the world title? Well, the 2nd half hasn't happened yet, but Hardy vs Roode has been announced as the main event at the Impact tapings.

 

[Evening Musuko]

Oh snap...oh wait I doubt anyone remembers that stupid angle now

It was supposed to be Mr. Anderson Kennedy but then he got suspended.

Oh and Hornswoggle was Cruiserweight champ at the time IIRC until Vickie made him forfeit the title because he was a McMahon or something like that.

HES GOING TO BURY MICKEY AND MAKE IT HELMSLEYLAND. BAW GAWD PEDIGREE TO MINNIE TOO!

 

[atomsk]

So gamefly finally got around to sending me Hulk Hogan's Main Event. It's about as bad as you'd expect, but really, if they had released it as a $10 downloadable it might not have gotten as harsh reviews as it did.

That said it works about 75% off the time, so I don't know how anyone would get all the achievements. I can't even blame Kinect for that, as much as I'd like to

 

[Spider from Mars]

Mickey only got that spot because he is fucking the bosses daughter. Paul shouldn't associate himself with such a nepotistic, spotlight hog.

He has to one up Disney on ice, at WM it's going to be Taker Vs HHH 3: ON ICE!

Taker has the advantage, I think you recall wrestlemania where Taker skated to the ring?

I want to try it out for the create-a-wrestler alone. I watched the Giant Bomb quick look for the game a couple of months ago, and recording your own catch phrases for your created wrestler through Kinect looks fucking hilarious.

 

[Lost Fragment]

I just looked at the roster and they have around 42 people who could possibly compete in the Rumble this year. My predictions of the 30 men who will enter the Royal Rumble:

Booker T
Brodus Clay
Chris Jericho
Cody Rhodes
Drew Mcintyre
Epico
Evan Bourne
Ezekiel Jackson
Goldust
Heath Slater
Hunico
Jack Swagger
Jinder Mahal
John Cena
Justin Gabriel
Kane
Kofi Kingston
Mark Henry
Primo
R-Truth
Randy Orton
Santino
Sheamus
Ted Dibiase
The Miz
Tyson Kidd
Undertaker
Wade Barrett
Yoshi Tatsu
Zack Ryder

This is based on tv time and current injuries.

Undertaker's so not gonna be in. And of the active roster, probably a couple less than 30 will be in since there'll be a few token "wrestler we haven't seen for a while" nostalgia spots.

Pluto is a dog, but so is Goofy. So is Pluto mentally challenged or something? Why is an animal a pet to other animals? Disney is fucked up.

Undertaker is the one I'd replace with Jericho if he goes in the Rumble. Any nostalgia spots will be filled by guys that are in the Legends House show on the Network so they can plug that all night.

Goofy was given super intelligence (for a dog) in laboratory accident.

Probably.

We are not discussing Disney booking. Don't do this.

Taker has the advantage, I think you recall wrestlemania where Taker skated to the ring?

The speed at which he walks down to the ring is similar to an individual trying not to fall on their backside when crossing ice, someone should tell him that dry ice isn't slippery.
