How has Bryan turned into Cena? By actually winning matches? That's such bullshit. Bryan the character is basically Bryan the person. The only difference is that now he gets to win and not be made to look like a pussy every week. If people are now pissed that Bryan is getting pushed like they've wanted for the past 2 years, then they need to stop watching wrestling because they're shit heads that are going to bitch no matter what.

Why do we think there's going to be a title change tonight?
Can we somehow make it Big Es?
Hell, Carmella DeCesare could cut a better promo than 90% of the divas locker room. Certainly would've gotten her in the main event if she got 1/10th the rub AJ got.

He's in the way of the Majestic God-Man, Batista. I can't have him take the spotlight. Fuck Bryan!

"This is THEIR ring!" Cringey as shit.
The thinking is that they're gonna want to make the new live Main Event seem important and a title change is a possible way of doing that. I thought the Divas title would change but I think the US title is being carried to WM by Ambrose.

lol, her promos are essentially "i'm not like these other trashy Divas" snoozefests.
any of them can cut a promo like that. fuck, give an open mic to the Bellas and they would probably tear her a new one.

A lot of people are kind of getting a bad taste in their mouths because Bryan's "homegrown" direction and promos feel artificial as hell, whether it's really him or not. It's just not exciting and it doesn't feel fresh. It feels like it was designed by a committee that has been told what affects people, but doesn't truly understand.
To their credit, Trips and Stephanie DO know what's making this tick, but whoever is scripting Bryan...

But mang, that's totally his character. You may not like the character, but this is it.
I guess all the times Hogan, Warrior, Sting, Flair, Funk and on and on said similar things was cringey as shit as well and they all totally sucked. Do you think Bryan is hanging out writing his own promos?
They seem to have forgotten that it's kind of normal for a top guy to rarely lose. Booking a guy strongly is a huge part of getting him over as a top star.
You didn't see Hogan or Austin losing all the time.
Just because Cena was pushed horribly as a top face, doesn't mean the concept of "a face that wins matches" is soured forever.

I can go for Mark Henry getting the US Belt. GO MARK GO
It's not a permanent thing. You can say cringeworthy shit and still salvage your character. Bryan can too. But right now, I couldn't feel like his promos are more fake and manufactured. It feels overwhelming.

Except for the part where they evidently don't let her say what she wants cause another diva bitched about her promo.

i always defended, and this goes back to early last year, that Bryan should have a Dean Malenko/pre-homicide Benoit gimmick.
short guy, killer moves, few words.
his promo should consist on how he's gonna tear Orton apart limb by limb or how HHH can't Pedigree him with his faced caved in.
that's it, simple booking.

That's EVERYONE's promos besides Wyatt. No one's promos sound more scripted and unauthentic than Orton's.
Holy Jesus the Booker/RVD mash up theme at WM 20 is FUCKING TERRIBLE.

Shaggy as a Cena mark? amazing
That doesn't wipe the existence of the first time she got to do that promo.
I'm sure some of the divas would like to come out and tell AJ her little gamer gurl tilt head to the side shtick is getting old.

It's not using plants that's the issue, it's being so blatantly obvious about it and using the same people over and over again.
Yeah I hate how she just goes on endlessly about all the video game she plays in her promos. It's so annoying!
Sorry I'm imagining the Bellas or Natalya trying to do a pipebomb worked shoot promo and it's kind of funny.
Twitter's canonical in WWE bro
I see it as Alicia Fox's moment, actually.

List of people who D. Brine is currently better than:
Everyone
And maybe William Regal
Everyone
And maybe William Regal
They have a direct line to Steph, I saw it on #totaldivas. There is no reason they couldn't have asked for a feud with AJ and be allowed to air their grievances as well. Instead they just didn't want the #truthcauseithurts.
That's even worse.
minus Most of the New Japan roster

Cool, I guess they're going through all the Hanna-Barbera franchises. The Jetsons and Jonny Quest are next!
