What's the closest we ever got to a good thought provoking story line?

I guess that's the problem. Most of wrestling doesn't need anything complex. It has to be simple and yet with REAL emotions.

Oh, I don't curse the day I found wrestling. WCW was actually a good product for a while. I curse the day Ted Turner gave up and allowed Vince McMahon to buy the company instead of listening to other offers he had on the table that would have allowed legit competition to continue.

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross gave the following idea for WrestleMania 32 in the most recent edition of his Ross Report podcast:

Hey, I got an idea for you…what about Batista, the heel, coming back and taking on Brock Lesnar, the babyface, at WrestleMania in April in Dallas? I could live with that main event. Red hot Batista coming back and urinating all over the fans. Being a big star. Being very arrogant and full of himself. Being a bad ass. Believing his clippings and he wants to take on the biggest dog in the yard. I don’t dislike that match.

But the front is terrible as well.

Actually like the idea of the front. Capitalizing on the Roman Empire association with his name isn't a bad idea....the execution though could be better. I'd have ROMAN REIGNS EMPIRE instead of ROMAN EMPIRE reigns.

All of Roman's catch phrases sound like my t-shirts from elementary school in 1990.

I think they hired a slogan writer from those No Fear t-shirts to do Roman's.

New Roman Reigns shirt would be great, but they had to put the quote on the back.

Our focus group results indicate 67% of the test audience prefers the "Spear Everyone" catchphrase over the "Sufferin' Succotash" phrase, and a whopping 72% over the "Magic Beeeeeans" phrase. Polls indicate a font size 48 is ideal for our trademark obnoxious t-shirt back.

I believe with the synergy of catchprase iteration 28, we've finally nailed it!

I like pretty much all of his movies to varying degrees. The only thing I don't really like is that it seems like none of his more recent movies hold up at all on repeat viewings.......

I felt this way about Inception. But I apparently haven't taken the time to reanalyze the movie so I can find stuff to hate about it.

.....which is why I regret watching Inception again. I want to be like jmdajr and just enjoy it

I liked Memento, but I haven't watched it since it came out however many years ago, so no idea if it holds up. I've not seen Interstellar.

I'm still so disappointed with the tournament.

I mean, it would have been 100 times better to have a sequence of 4 Survivor Series matches and have the survivors entered into a battle royal at the end of the PPV (Just like they did way back when) for the title. Would have had a LOT more intrigue.

I almost never re-watch a movie. There's too many other movies out there I could be watching for the first time instead.

Imagine if the NFL had an emergency playoff where the only teams invited were the Lions, Jaguars, Browns and Cowboys.



That is the Survivor Series WWE Championship Tournament.

The only time I've had a reaction like that is the "Robin" thing at the end of Dark Knight Rises. It was just stupid on multiple levels.

Hyperbole on both sides. Like I said, people don't have enough objectivity - there's little room for middle ground, especially on the internet where the loudest opinions provoke the most response. So when you've got a popular film, invariably there will be those who praise it to the heavens and those who utterly bury it, when the truth likely falls somewhere in between.

I actually didn't think it was that great. I think I went in with too high expectations. GAF has been jizzing over this movie.

I absolutely appreciate the use of practical effects, though. Super well done. And this was pretty great:

Considering there's no card to my knowledge it would've made so much sense.

Can the Lions be Ambrose? We get like one good win every once in awhile and then lose everything else.

I was rewatching Backlash 2000 thanks to Lapsed Fan.

Probably fair. Even my classic are not without faults. I just don't focus on them if the overall experience is good.

Too much I hated this movie, or this was the worst ever. Personally I don't focus on the negative unless it's just insanely pronounced. Lots of people dig deeper than most to not like something.

I usually don't overpraise something unless it really hits me good in the feels.
