IT'S A SHAMEFUL THING

Y'all are on whatever Roman pissed hot for if you think Balor's entrance at SummerSlam isn't gonna be hot fire. Sure, it won't be cool the 80th time they do it on the main roster, but SummerSlam and WM are big shows.

Data West loved it, if I remember
But that'd go opposite of what this thread says, which is data hates everything
Damned Big Data hatin' everything!

Wait, I thought Sasha and Bayley were feuding over the Italian Eyebrow Ref.
EXCELLENT.
Yes Michael its the Irish Righteous Alliance! They just like to have fun.
Nah for his singles matches he comes into his solo theme, which is badass.
Unpopular opinion time but outside of the triple threat with Rollins and Cena, all of the suplex city matches have been trash. It was amusing the first time against Cena but that's about it.
Big Data Pump.
I read that as Big Data Dump for some reason.
Anytime Scott Steiner was on TV I usually left to go take a dump, so I can see how this mental crossroads happens

That triple threat with Bork/Cena/Rollins at Royal Rumble was pretty god damn fantastic.
He used the Bullet Club theme for the first night of G1. Only one to do so out of him, Tonga, and Omega/Yujiro

I agree. The best match he had since was the one with Taker at HiaC because it was anything but.

Cena hyping SD on twitter. AJ/Cena blowoff?
It had pretty decent storytelling at least.
People pretended this was a MOTY candidate?
yup
Go watch it.
Both when Cesaro walks past reigns and when reigns name is called they state off at each other.
Plus Cesaro was protected from the pin in that match.
Cesaro vs Reigns would be a good summerslam match

My opinion on Lesnar is pretty well known, but its really the invincible Suplex City gimmick that I hate. I like Lesnar as a wrestler, I just think he's booked silly.
The people acting like Reigns has great matches with everyone he's in the ring with like it's because of him.
Whenever he has a great match he does his part, but everyone else always does so much more.

Very overrated and I'm not changing my opinion for any stinking one.
It got absolutely run into the ground. I hope someone at WWE realizes it. I'm surprised Heyman pushed it for as long as he did.

Reigns/Lesnar was really dumb.
It worked against Cena and Reigns
the story being told is great. you had "the guy" as chosen by the company in cena, and later reigns. these company guys would get shit on by the crowd week after week because they delivered weak promos and just decent matches, certainly not good enough to justify what they've been given.
AND THEN THIS FUCKING BEAST JUST SQUASHES THEM LIKE BUGS
it was super satisfying to watch those two times just because of the build and the opponents. but yeah, against guys like taker or dean, the whole suplex city thing is just a whole lot less satisfying to watch. there's not much of a story there.

If you asked me whether I'd prefer to see Reigns-Lesnar II or Lesnar-Orton I I can tell you I'd pick Reigns-Lesnar every time.
The problem with Invincible Lesnar is that there was no payoff to it, nobody to knock away the invincibility he got after beating Undertaker.
Reigns/Lesnar at WM31 was entertaining because it was a Lesnar squash match for about 85% of the match with the added bonus of WWE revisionist history trying to convince everyone Roman actually had a chance

Reigns does his part a hell of a lot more than he used to. Looking at Reigns in matches now, he's improved massively IMO compared to when they first pushed him.
I can honestly say Reigns is a great ring worker now. Technically amazing? No. But he doesn't need to be.
I just want to see the F5 into RKO from #OuttaNowhere counter.
I'm not saying he hasn't improved and I'm not even saying he isn't good.
I'm just saying every time he has a great match, the person he's in the ring with is still doing way more than him.
Do you really want Cesaro to eat that pin?
I don't
Cesaro and Samoa Joe got the stuff

That's been my problem all along. Whenever they put him in a ring with the current full timers he mostly buries them. That's not Lesnar the performer's fault or even the match agent; its booking.

Cena/Lesnar II was a great story, and legitimately shocking. Lesnar/Reigns was dumb because you had Reigns run through everyone in the Rumble and Bryan to be booked to beat Lesnar but he takes a bunch of suplexes. It's OK though because he was laughing or something. Then Lesnar never actually beats him because Rollins sweeps in for the win. Lesnar looks stupid. Reigns looks stupid. Dumb story.
I don't know man. That's a weird argument to make because in general that's how wrestling has always worked.

Finn can do a double stomp to the back of the head, but Seth can't use his stomp?
Fuck yes it would be.
And suddenly I remembered Joe vs Nak is still coming. Fuuuuuuuck yessssssss

Has Finn ended any careers though?

The reason they stopped the Curb Stomp was concern that kids would emulate it. Kids can't really emulate that.
That's how it's worked when someone needs to be led and to a greater extent, carried to a great match.
Reigns no longer needs to be carried, but he still needs someone else leading and calling the shots.
You watch Zayn and Owens on Sunday and I wouldn't say either one did more than the other. Or that one was even leading the other.
That should be the goal for Reigns if he wants to be the top guy. Not just being able to do his part.
Sure, he needs to get there and I think he will as long as they don't try some bullshit with him again.
But they will. They just can't help themselves. The moment he starts getting more cheers than boos, you know Vince will take that as a sign that it's time to strap the rocket to him again.
