I still think not pulling the trigger on Roman at WM last year was a bad idea. Have Reigns turn heel and win the title - best move they could have had. Having Rock come in and interfere on Reigns behalf could also set up Rock / Brock at WM 32.

I agree with you. If they made Reigns win dirty, I'd be okay with it and I think it'd be cool. Roman's as a heel and Seth as a face would actually be a pretty awesome feud.

Last gen was real good. So many great games I don't think I could narrow it down.
I believe in you.
Don't believe what some on GAF will tell you. There's nothing wrong with preordering physical copies of video games.
I actually think, in general, it's kind of dumb. But I'm obviously willing to join the dumb for some games.
And Yakuza 5 is not physical. :O

They really don't need Taker and Flair there.

WCWWE indeed
They BADLY need to take the Belt off Seth, at least temporarily.
Jesus, Vince straight up smashed the panic button.
Getting the belt off Seth isn't going to do shit if the writing of the show continues to be shit. Also consider that the most likely people to take the belt off of him right now are Shaemus and Kane.

And give it to Rusev

Yeah its nothing to do with who has the belt its the very fundamentals of the show and the fact as we say again and again: they have no idea why or how to get fellas over again nowadays.

I don't understand why people attribute the ratings to one single individual (usually the person with the belt) as if they are singularly responsible for drawing the entire show. Take the belt off Seth? Who cares if the show will still be centered around the same group of guys?
Lol mentioning Flair
They need to shake things up. What's going on with WWE right now, starting with 20 minute promos with Seth or the Authority, shitty commentary, hammering the constant social media BS, is tiresome.
It is pretty shitty that they don't want to get guys over that aren't "in their plans" like Cesaro, Rusev, etc. not to mention the bad booking of faces and treating heels as the good guys.
And of course Vince, in his all knowing wisdom, would load up Raw on the same night MNF has a divisional rival game against two major market teams. If he was smart he'd load up Raw on the 28th because it's going to be the Packers taking care of business against Kansas City because that's a game that will probably have fewer eyes on it.
Vince broke the panic button from smashing it so hard.
What do they expect though? With the way Seth has been booked and how they continue to tell us part timers and Cena are the most important guys around, how or why should anybody care about Seth or anybody else on the roster for that matter.
Their short sighted booking CONTINUES to bite them in the ass yet instead of changing the process it's easier to just shift blame and say "_____" isn't a draw.

He was probably only able to get those guys because show is in Dallas though.

I imagine Stone Cold (and maybe Michaels) will just be there to promo the game, since it's out the next week. Brock/Taker are there for Hell in the Cell and Flair is there for Charlotte.

The chances of WWE clearing Bryan have never been higher.
Shit, I'd wager a lot of Dallas is going to be watching MNF anyway because it has an affect on the Cowboy's division
I agree. The product simply isn't good right now. Between MitB and Summerslam it was good to great most of the time. Now it's...dull, boring, terrible, etc. There are bright spots here and there, but they don't keep going with those bright spots for the most part.
Yep. Also, this is getting oversold. Flair is almost every week around, Lesnar/Taker have to promote their match (Lesnar will appear on Stone Colds podcast) and Shawn is from Texas anyway...
People just use the ratings as an excuse to shit on the individuals they don't like.
They're feeling the heat
Catrina ....just not fair.....
Fire all the writers, ALL OF THEM.

And lock Vince out of future creative meetings.
Here you go friend...
Thank you!
I feel that this exact conversation has gone down every time they've brought a big swath of old timers back for an episode since about 2007?

By that count, the Bullet Club is the most dominant faction in wrestling history!
I've seen Reigns shirts on folks who also own Cena shirts.

Biggest problem is they are stuck in their ways.
Every raw HAS to open with a 20 minute promo.
There HAS to be an heel authority
There HAS to be even stevens booking making everyone a midcarder.
Someone needs to sit vince down and say its not about you motherfucker

I've seen more Reigns shirts out in the wild than Cena shirts. Wrestlemania weekend I saw a ton of D.Brine merch, but I was also in the Bay Area, so *shrug*
Even if they did it wouldn't matter. Vince can kill story lines at will.
