I could see Nidia being paired with the wyatts back in the day as a manager who has no idea what Bray is talking about but thinks he's cool/rich

Remember the rumours that they were going to make Sister Abigail a real character?

Honestly a near silent, mysterious and violent female that is the true power behind the Wyatts would be cool. But the chances of it ever been executed in the WWE with any sort of competency would be zero. They fail every single women on the roster every single week in the most terrible ways so being able to put forward a nuanced, subtle, powerful female character is so hilariously beyond them I don't even know why I'm posting this?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Count me in in the no trust team, but man, it would have potential. And isn't that pretty much all what we have left, imagining what could be?

I had a joke post that this would be planned for Bailey's heel turn, but the more I think about it, the more it works. I just don't know if she could pull the character off.
 

Aiii

So not worth it

Look at Bailey, look at Bailey in real life.

Now seriously think about this person, and this character, playing a heel. Some things are just dumb, Bailey being any character besides the one she is now is just dumb as fuck.

Imagine if Hulk Hogan revealed Hulkamania was actually a person and he only existed as a vehicle by permission of this person.

It completely destroys Bray's character. More than the last 5 years of booking had.

What if she hugged someone to death...and then as the camera zooms in on her face we find out she likes it.

You're probably right. Most people play heels better than a babyface, with her it's the opposite.

I'm 34 minutes into this Review a Wai on Evolve 38, and they still haven't started talking about the show itself.

Hey atleast they arent talking about UFC.

Or.. are they?

In that pic above, is that GiGi from Tough Enough? What is she up to now?
 
A woman in the wyatt family would probably be given the same "I'm a poor delicate snowflake that was bullied by those mean old men!" story-arc that Lana was given.
That'll show you that they can't get shit done. Forreal.

Unless it was Vickie Guerrero.

... I miss Vickie Guerrero.
Bring her back and she's instantly the most over heel.

Too bad Sherri is dead and came in 30 years too early. She would've been great.

That episode? Mainly some real passive aggressive talk about why the quest doesn't respond to texts and his interview of Chris Jericho.

Goldust is such a conflicting character for me. At the time, I hated the character because I enjoyed Dustin's work in WCW as sort of a throwback to what Dusty did and I felt like the character was a down grade.

But now watching back Goldust is one of the best characters that showcases the transition from the New Generation to the Attitude era with elements of both.
 
Oh snap Luke Harper just showed up at my gym. Now is an opportunity to give him my bullet point list of what's wrong with the current product

Goldust was definitely one of the very first pieces of the Attitude Era.

Yeah. I would say the beginnings of the Goldust character were New Generation. They took it into the attitude era with how they executed and emphasized the more racier parts of the character.

ItsBayley dammit!

Plus she's mediocre on the mic, which being a face helps.

Provided they are not stupid enough to turn Sasha face they can just feud forever.

The bouncer me and my girlfriend are good friends with at our favorite bar wrestled with Harper in FCW, around 2011-12.

He kind of had similar gear to Harper. Guy dresses like Biker Taker in real life and it's hilarious. Whenever I stop in we usually just talk about whatever is currently happening in WWE and how shit it is.
 
Goldust is top 5 greatest WWE superstar. Even better than Hogan.



You know when The New Day announcing New Day Rules for the Rumble what is they actually won? And Reigns or whoever is the champ has to run the new day gauntlet at WM with New Day winning 😀


Shut up James.

Brie has been a heel for nearly a year now and still tries to get Yes chants going. Nikki is at least capable of getting the crowd reactions that she's supposed to.

Nikki is literally the only fully realized heel on the diva roster.

Paige got real close lately but then they decided to turn Flair heel which made Paige a crazy tweener that leans face.

Lol Brie is neither heel or face. She has no idea what the fuck she's doing. I'm at the point where I skip any match she's in every single time.

Divas on the main roster aren't faces or heels. They're all just catty bitches.
That's a BIG reason why Bayley needs to cling to NXT as long as possible because being an uber face is literally her identity.

You mean you are not looking forward to a program with Bayley having a crush on Cena and Nikki becomes jealous?

I just realized the female character behind Bray I described is more or less Catrina from LU except more interesting.

Lucha Underground wins again

Catrina is like if Lana was written by people who weren't neanderthals.
I suspect most of the WWE's writers aren't neanderthals so much as they're writing FOR a neanderthal. Their hands are tied.
If they wrote Lana any differently they'd be fired for being clueless.
Then they'd go work for Lucha Underground and be happy.
 
You know what's hilarious? While Razor Ramon was "The Bad Guy", he spent most of his majority of his time being the good guy. When he had his feud with Goldust, Dustin should've quoted a line from Scarface just to really smit him.


"Say goodnight to the bad guy. Scarface 1983."
