  1. Not consistent with his character? He was a heel in WCW that NEVER ran in on his own and attacked a babyface, just stood on the ramp or in the ring with the typical angry heel look of "Oh I am gonna get you for that, but not now!)....what a crock of shit excuse that was.. Didnt he do a run in 98 and Powerbomb Hogan? I dont recall him being with anyone as Bret was on the opposing side.

    IF they keep him then they better finally wise up and start using him to elevate guys. I've been saying all along that he should be defending against more than just Cena because even guys losing to Brock will look strong if it's a competitive match. Rollins at the Rumble is proof positive. He looks like a million bucks after that match. Hopefully that's the start of a trend. If WM is indeed Brock's last match then his whole run will feel like a huge wasted opportunity. The problem with Brock is he never defended the Title. Wins at Summerslam defends at NOC and then you dont see another title defense till January. Surely they could have come up with a better option than this. Is he going to be booked for the Feb PPV? Cena has lost quite a bit recently so im expecting Cena to go over at Mania as he cant beat Takers streak now so Rusev will have to do. Its still odd why they dont just save the match for Mania to make it feel something special ie matches that havent happened before.
  3. Is this the one where he wouldn't bad mouth anyone because he still wants to be booked? Or was that Brodus Clay? Most shoots the wrestlers are slagging someone off but these young stars dont want to do it in fear of burning bridges.
  4. Yeah I finally sucumbed to the Network and ordered just so I can watch the Rumble. I enjoyed it anyway shame the internet kids didnt but hey they expect too much. Regarding cropping they did this for years on their official DVDs before they finally changed it. Never had a issue with the stretched pic on the dvds before this. You are the only person - in the world - that hasn't any complaints about the Rumble. I enjoyed it for what it was. No point in being upset over who got eliminated or who won. I may be disapointed over the odd thing that happened but no point in being angry at what happened as their are other things in the world to worry about. Regarding cropping they did this for years on their official DVDs before they finally changed it. Never had a issue with the stretched pic on the dvds before this. When did WWE ever crop anything on their DVDs? I've got absolutely no recollection of this ever happening outside of clips inserted into widescreen documentaries. Original content has always been presented in 4:3, sometimes with bars added at the side if there's a mix of footage. If I remember right I watched a DVD last month I forget the name but I recall it having MSG stuff in the content and it was full screen on my widescreen tv however when I watched another DVD it had the black bars on the picture.
  5. Bret/Yoko is redeemed by WWE suprising the fans by having Hogan walk out with the title. Worst booking has to be the Rumble Orton won. How would you go about booking this? Dont forget you had the Georgia Dome in January and the fans would have been pissed had Goldberg not won the belt back. Mind you they were pissed anyway by the end of the night. Doctor, did you really think Hogan coming in and winning the title at WM9 was a good thing? Yes! I loved it and from the PPV all the fans who attended that PPV loved it. They all cheered Hogan on because they didnt want heel Yokozuna walking out with the belt. I dont recall any boos at all and it was a nice pop too.

Dont forget you had the Georgia Dome in January and the fans would have been pissed had Goldberg not won the belt back. Mind you they were pissed anyway by the end of the night. What I am saying is that Nash beating Goldberg for the title isn't the BAD booking decision, its what they did afterward. The post said the worst booking decision was Nash going over... If they did things right afterward (almost Austin like) where Goldberg chases through the NWO (you can even reform it, just keep the belt on Nash) on his way to getting back to Nash and winning the title back.. Their ratings after Starrcade, including 1/4 were still really big (12/28 - 4.6 and 1/4 - 4.9, so people wanted to see what was coming next)…have the 1/4 rematch at the Georgia Dome with Goldberg getting screwed somehow and Nash winning by the skin of his teeth (shit, have Hogan come back to the NWO and fuck Goldberg, just don't give him the title (I know, not very likely)…its on TV (World Title Changes don't happen all the time on TV and the belt JUST CHANGED HANDS TO NASH)..I know its at the dome, but giving them the rematch and a good match with that ending wouldn't hurt….fans can be pissed, but not the pissed that makes them run away... If it sounds stupid and "wouldn't work" as some would / may say, its not that different than what they did with Austin after he lost the title at Survivor Series 98 as he got screwed the next night in his match vs. Rock and then had to come back from there and people ate that shit up….same thing with Goldberg….you can do it different as well (Austin had Taker to get Rumble, then Vince after Rumble) as the NWO has WAY more guys to go through and you can draw it out longer…. So the actual Nash vs. Goldberg Starrcade booking wasn't bad at all…….it was the disaster after disaster that followed for booking decisions... Yeah I wasent keen on that screwjob. By all means do the match and do the same ending but the finger poking just seemed wrong especially on a massive crowd. Personally I wouldnt have had the Georgia Dome booked that close, maybe have it for a March event.

    Over in the UK we have to pay for Raw on SKY Sports so either way it wouldnt have been free.
  7. Roman Reigns was always going to bomb on the live crowd. He is nowhere near ready for the main event scene. Im not a Reigns hater but if he the supposed god saviour of WWE for the next decade pushing him now to the main event scene is the wrong thing to do. Some of the decisions WWE come up with is crazy considering the fans are the ones who make a wrestler. Maybe in the future they do a voting system. Let the fans vote for who should win the Rumble. We all know its pre determined well us adults do so there be no harm in us voting for who we want to win. Please stop posting while drunk. Whats wrong with a voting system? Least then the fans get what they want. Ive seen plenty of fans crap on a match because their favourite didnt win. This place doesn't need gimmick posters. Grow up or go away. I really dont see how my comment is in need of growing up or going away. There are plenty of sulky fans at the moment just because their fav didnt win. Dont really see how you can warrant a post like that. What is so wrong with a voting system because at the end of the day the fans would get what they want.
  8. I was under the standing that because last year they couldnt do Bryan/Sheamus because of sulky fans they postponed it for a year so they can do it this year.
  9. The only fans that are going to cancel is those immature kids on Twitter who sulked over what happened at the Ryumble. Quite frankly I enjoyed the event and to me thats all that matters. Its a huge over reaction because you get thousands of hours of classic footage to watch and thats a great service. Getting the current PPVs is just a bonus and if it bothers them that much buy the PPV from SKY/cable operator. What happens on a PPV shouldnt count for whether you do or dont want the network. Its still a great 24/7 channel.
  10. Well he did appear in 2009 wasent it on Raw so maybe things are good. Jesse always talks about pretenders to his throne because he was a ex Navy Seal. Who is he on about? Slaughter or Kerchner?

    Hopefully! Its about time Rusev lost. Me neither. Whats the point in cancelling? You still get all those awesome classic shows to watch!
  13. No what it was is when I heard about it being cancelled I thought it was a rib on the fans because they sulked over Bryan. Then later on I read about the snow being quite bad as the reason for it being cancelled.

    Id say yes. Alough I watched it on the Network im not too fussed as the price for me is for the old shows so the new PPVs are just a bonus but for the people who bought on Box Office yeah they have a right to be angry for paying for something then it airing for free the next day. Couldnt they have realistically come up with something better ie exclusive footage of some matches not seen before thats in tune with the current era.
  17. Yeah cool I guess. Is his old Buddy Jesse inducting him?

    Some snow for HHH to bury Daniel Bryan in
  20. Yeah I read this too. Says Smackdown is cancelled too. Isnt WWE overreacting just because Bryan lost.

  22. That was 2000. Now I remember. Yeah your right as they wanted RVD vs Awesome to headine a April PPV in a title vs title match.
  23. Yeah that stuff is crazy. DDP, Raven, Jericho get their themes dubbed just because a intro sounds like a official song.
  24. To whom? That one guy somewhere that likes The Ascension? To anyone who is sick of the WWE putting ancient stars on a pedestal over current workers. I don't care about the Ascension, but the Outlaws shouldn't be beating anyone. Since when was the last time a Legend who made WWE what is is today went over a current guy apart from Rock/Punk? Im sick of the Legends being jobbed out all the time. It devalues their legacy. Either let them win or dont have them appear on TV. Actually thinking back to Raw had this been 1996 NWO would have slapped the piss out of the Assention because no one would have even dared to get in their face without taking a kicking.
  25. Has creative plans changed now Bryan is back?
