Carmella was pretty good on Talking Smack IMO. Now Bryan is talking about booking her and Nikki in a No DQ match.

I'm not jumping on #teamcarmella just yet, but 1. she was pretty good on Talking Smack (this is a trend that has continued unabetted) and 2. she has been drastically better, both as a heel and since she stopped saying "MY NAME IS CAR-MEL-AHHHH) during her entrance.

 

[Verendus]

Lololol.

Somehow I doubt you did.

Really?

This is the definition of a one match show in my eyes:

AJ Styles vs. Dean Ambrose
The Usos vs. The Hype Bros
The Miz vs. Dolph Ziggler
Bray Wyatt vs. Kane
Heath Slater and Rhyno vs. The Usos
Becky Lynch vs. Alexa Bliss vs. Carmella vs. Naomi vs. Natalya vs. Nikki Bella

There's nothing interesting there aside from the main event. Rest of the card is filled with a bunch of jobbers who should just be released. Clash has a solid card in comparison:

Kevin Owens vs. Seth Rollins
Rusev vs. Roman Reigns
Sami Zayn vs. Chris Jericho
The New Day vs. Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson
Cesaro vs. Sheamus
Charlotte vs. Sasha Banks vs. Bayley
T.J. Perkins vs. Brian Kendrick

It has triple the matches I'm interested in, specifically the top three. And The New Day are usually entertaining so that could be a bonus fourth.

In other words, you better know your role and shut your goddamn mouth!

I love how he is standing too.

Everyone here could probably take Punk out.

It was honestly a rare MMA performance

No joke, even if you threw 2 punches, or even just a punch and a kick, you would have actually attempted more offense than Punk got to. And if one of them connected, you would have done better offensively!

It isn't even sarcasm to say that if we were in a professional MMA fight, we could not do worse

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Y'all remember how that feud ended?! Which group got their asses kicked?

Spoiler

I'm the Ambrose of the group.

Yeah, Dean was fantastic on Talking Smack.

Dean is fucking fire on TS right now. Holy shit. Why can't he be this good on the actual wrestling program???

And yet, SD produced a good PPV. I don't trust the Raw booking with that stellar card

 

[justjim89]

Ambrose is so fucking good. How can anyone not like him?

 

[Ithil]

Dean looked like he wanted to keep going for another few minutes. He was really only just getting started.

Backlash was one of the best non major PPVS in years imho, so I hope so. But raw has not been keeping pace and hoping that they top Backlash is optimistic to say the least.

But I do hope you are right.

Didn't we have an avatar bet going in regards to Suicide Squad, friend?

Cause probably he got to speak without someone handing him a script and saying Dean we want you to wear this big hat and I want you to act like a "lunatic."

Dean just didn't want to make Austin look bad, RAD > RASCSA

And this is why Talking Smack has been a revelation. Give everyone Unscripted promo time. Build the feuds off it when they knock it out of the park. It's really helped elevate the feuds and the talent and it's an engaging 25 minutes of genuinely unpredictable TV.

But yeah, shame Dean can't seem to do the wrestling equivalent of cutting a promo like this. He needs to go he'll for leather in the ring and not just be all 'gotta get my shit in'.

Ambrose is trash.

That's either negligibly better than being the Grand Master Sexay, or negligibly worse. Being any part of Too Cool is the taco bell shits.

And before any jackanape mentions Rikishi, HE WASN'T IN TOO COOL. CHECK YO HISTORY BOOKS.

Woah brutha, you might need some therapy for that.

But yeah TS, has been the best show on the network after what it has done to build up stars and show you a real side of them and Not what they want you to see.

It's pathetic that they can't just let these guys be themselves and Stop micro managing every damn thing!

If you need a script, get a script but if you know the character doesn't need that crap, just let Them do their thing.

Cesaro talks about his theme song and entrance:

"I do not like my current entrance music," he said of his heavy metal-style theme, having broken into laughter again when ESPN asked if he would like to return to using the Swiss rap song he debuted in WWE with. "I've kind of wished I could have a new one since I got this one."

"I asked for a little James Bond-esque entrance because I'm a big fan and that's always been an inspiration to me. That's what made the transition to the Swiss Superman. It just went from there. Little piece at a time, little piece at a time. Hopefully the music will be a piece sometime soon."

Cesaro let out a hearty laugh when asked how he would play James Bond, were he cast as the fictional superspy in the next installment of the 007 film franchise. "Maybe a mix between Daniel Craig and Roger Moore," he said. "I would like to bring a suave, charming, fun side to the role, with of course a serious side."

Hopefully they start looking at Talking Smack and realizing that they can trust more of their talent to go out there without a full script. Even Carmella, who has seemed completely lost beforehand, came across much better when she was allowed time to just improv and work her character in an interview.

Maybe WWE just hates Cesaro.

It's not like they can't make great themes. It's just that they made him a terrible one. Maybe Cesaro should consider what it is that he's really accomplishing here.

It's okay, friend. I'm going like three months between posts anyway. I won't even feel the time pass. Just give me something funny if you do cash in.
