That wouldn't be bad.
I wasn't even aware there was a feud between Natalya and Paige, guessing it was played out in Main Event broadcasts and the WWE app.

Nope. There's no feud.

her spot in a joke division?
historically her throwing the title in the trash is worth more than being the face of a women's division, no matter how many WWE DVDs we watch
willing to bet her WCW contract was pretty nice as well
It's only good on the garden difficulty, then it's tense as fuck... While the Alien is around. The other parts are still boring.
Then you get a flamethrower and breeze through it anyway.

Like, four months ago.
She turned heel during the AJ feud, but the feud was so shitty that not many people noticed or cared.
Medusa also had a bigger part in wcw storylines even before the monday night war days. Vince forgot the fact that she was apart of the dangerous allance beating on wrestlers without a single fuck given. Yet.." OMG SHE THREW OUR BELT IN THE TRASH...DISCRACE". The belt didn't mean shit and the match that had legitmacy during the sorry women's division was the one with Bull. The only thing I remember about the Women's division besides Alundra was Bertha Faye.
Repackage him with a max payne gimmick...problem solved.

One of WWFs biggest mistakes in the quality of their progrum was having Michael Cole on commentary and then using it's commentators to try to explain their shitty storylines instead of reacting to events.
Compared to her numerous matches and storylines in wcw but hey...she threw the belt in the trash, she's hitler with a good suplex in the wwe's eyes.

Michael Cole's created this whole environment where everyone participates in unauthentic scripted banter, and it's the most irritating thing about every single show WWE does. Even the whole ECW Exposed special was exclusively this sort of interaction.

It'd be cool to see at least one NXT match each PPV, they tend to do great work in the ring and it makes for a great warm up to the main roster events.
I know I'm late to this conversation, but I just had to chime in and say YES. This may well be my favorite promo of all time. It's also the voice clip I used to learn how to do lip sync in animation class, and that ended up being one of my best projects in the class, so my feelings towards it are more than a little skewed. The layered sound and black & white aesthetic are just so freaking good though...
I tapped out within minutes of watching it. How can you ruin a good segment based on ECW by playing it the hell safe. I thought they was on something with the vintage shake cam shit that paul e used to do during Joey Styles segments. I feel like the WWE is putting a kick me sign on my back while I watch their damn product.
He should go all the way with his Minoru Suzuki homage. Maybe style his beard like the bad guy from Hunger Games. Also act more slimier with his opponents like Suzuki does. To me that would spice up his overall package, and make himself more attractive to the writers again.

ECW Exposed was garbage. That's why we're getting a sequel today.
Really all of modern TV commentary has become this(Snarky off topic humor). I don't blame Cole for this, though. I blame Joss Whedon.

When did Raw move to 3 hours? I really wish they could get a cut down version like the Hulu Plus one on the Network, even just so I can skip around for certain parts.
I like Renee doing this on NXT though. She kinda does the whole social media thing right on that show.
Max Payne, Hitman, Jason Statham. ANYTHING
That would certainly be different.
Because the WWE forget she even had the belt.
It wasn't a case of her leaving and then throwing the belt in anger, it was dumped to highlight how stupid the WWE were. But hey, time can twist any story.
It seems like Cole talks to more wrestlers than friggin Mean Gene Oakland. He knows their motives, their feelings, bloodtype, their friggin finisher before the wrestler even tries it, and the birthplace the wrestler's forefathers. Instead of a good promo or segment where the wrestler can explain his motives...Cole likes to tell me more about the wrestler.
It's like a dude wanting to talk to a girl in class, yet the teacher intervenes and reads off the girl's report card in front of the class for the guy.

is this real life 0_o...so nattie is a fox or some type of breed of animal?
Interspecies Match, yet whoever is on commentary will make a special note of the fact that The Bunny is a guy in a bunny suit.

Yeah, this is true.
Even most sitcoms now are really afraid to have sentimental or emotional moments without wrecking them with some snark or sarcasm or forced fun banter to defuse the moment. It seems like basic mainstream TV's afraid of genuine emotion right now.

Sounds good. I have a mini ROH library from 2010 until now, so I'd love to fill it out with earlier stuff. If I don't see your post on here with the pic/list, just PM me.

PG is the best thing to happen to the WWE
Loved how Bret took the steps bump. Cena's bumping is pathetic by comparison.
I really need to gif some Bret turnbuckle bumps. His chest-first bumps looked real and painful as fuuuuuuck.
You've got to admit, Joss Whedon has been knocked down a few pegs since Firefly. Dollhouse and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. weren't that great.
Cabin In The Woods was boss level though.
The only Joss Whedon stuff I've really been exposed to has been Firefly and Serenity. (loved both, Serenity a little less so) Watched a few Buffy episodes and The Avengers, and that's about it. Based on my experience with his work, he's an entertaining geek writer.
I have zero interest in the SHIELD show. Looks cheesy and B-tier from the ads alone.
P.S. You can also blame Kevin Smith for the snarky off-topic humor trend. I don't mind, though. I'm a Smith apologist through and through. I'll stand behind his Jay and Silent Bon flicks any day of the week.

You should watch Buffy and Angel, then watch Cabin In The Woods.

You know to be perfectly honest, I have a hard time taking people who complain about PG seriously. nWo was PG, Pillman's got a gun was PG,The golden age of Smackdown on UPN was PG. If anything we should be glad that WWE is PG, or we'd get stuck with stuff like Katie Vick. The fact of the matter is that, for reasons I cannot comprehend, the writing team sucks.
I have a very strong suspicion that it's either Vince, or Kevin Dunn, as when the Smack down writer and the NXT writer switched roles recently, there was neither a bump in quality on SD, nor a loss of quality on NXT. Makes you wonder, huh?
