goodhelmet Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 From a purely selfish standpoint, I would like to see Bryan vs. Punk or something cool like that. I don't think we will get it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Waco Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Even if they booked Punk v. Bryan, it would get fifteen minutes tops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rzombie1988 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Has any wrestler gone through developmental in the last three years and not gotten better?Conor O'Brian. He's been in there for near 10 years and still can't work a decent match. But, HHH likes him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 If The Undertaker is returning for revenge on The Shield (I think one of the commentators brought that up within the last few weeks) and with Roman Reigns turning face at some point, is there any chance we get Taker & Reigns vs. Ambrose & Rollings at WrestleMania?

Sean Liska Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I don't know if anyone is saying Bryan's being straight up buried and having his career destroyed on the undercard. But he is being held back in the mid card. He's in a great position in his career right now, but he could possibly be a lot more. He's still outrageously over with the live crowds and has a lot of charisma. Maybe he couldn't have been a really big star but he has obvious potential and they didn't really try. Instead they just kicked him back down to a midcard feud and kept Randy Orton on top for pretty much no reason except that he's their guy and Bryan really isn't. He's not even really in the midcard though - he's not having thrown together TV matches with Sandow and Fandango. Well, I'll shut up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it was a match in his hometown where he squashed Fandango, started off the show hot, and played more into the buildup for his PPV match with the Wyatts. And the Outlaws in the Dumb and Dumber tuxes ruled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I can sort understand why they didn't include it and nobody should take the Slammys seriously but how do you not put Punk vs Cena in the match of the year contender nominations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 And the Outlaws in the Dumb and Dumber tuxes ruled. Bad Influence did the same thing a couple of months ago. But it happened in TNA, so it didn't really happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the very little I saw last year but I just don't have the time or inclination to watch TNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 The crowd going nuts for D Bry during this segment was one of the best moments of the year. Even better than the return of Mark Henry's salmon colored suit? Oh they just gave away the finish with that "I will give you a rematch when I win the title" to Bryan. Great Cena promo though.

Blehschmidt Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Well, that ending went about a hundred different directions. I can already see the "OMG, Cena is turning heel and joining The Authority" posts happening on other board all across the internet. I also really hope they are not building to Punk/Bryan vs Michaels/HHH at Wrestlemania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I also really hope they are not building to Punk/Bryan vs Michaels/HHH at Wrestlemania. It would probably be a pretty great match before ending with a million pedigrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I'm loving the really slow build they're doing with Ambrose and Reigns. It's all been little comments and looks, right now between two guys who are most definitely still friends and teammates. Nothing that would equal a breakup happening soon, but slow character development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creative has no concept of "slow character development" since that is predicated on some thought beyond next Monday. They just didn't pull the trigger.

Creative has no concept of "slow character development" since that is predicated on some thought beyond next Monday. They just didn't pull the trigger. Lol. Yeah, I'm "imagining" the bit from about two months ago where Ambrose said he was the only guy in the group still with gold and Reigns threw him a look. I imagined when Ambrose tonight looked a tiny bit upset when Reigns interrupted him when they were presenting the Slammy and Reigns rolling his eyes at Ambrose. I imagined Reigns again rolling his eyes at Ambrose during the Punk match, and I imagined seeing Reigns still fuck up Punk after Ambrose's over confidence got him fucked and pinned, but still walk behind his pal as he was being cared to and carted off by Rollins with body language that said "My pal's an asshole at times, and it cost him. But we're still a team" Come on man, it's all right there. edit: 1. I fucking LOVED that ending to the show. 2. I love even more the Oliver Stone level of conspiracy theories about every second of it and what it meant, that are going on on the internetz.

Exposer Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I don't always agree with Johnny but there's clear evidence of slow building character development/dissension between Reigns and Ambrose. It's directly in front of the audience on the screen in plain sight. The examples aren't hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiva Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 CM Punk hasn't had the greatest year but every so often, there's little things that are awesome, like him laughing at Stephanie's introduction of HHH. The Daniel Bryan chanting at the end was awesome and it really seems at this point that he's got to win the Rumble or at least be heavily featured at Mania. They can try and force Orton/Cena all they want but nobody is listening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Yeah it is obvious that Roman Reigns is the golden child on this group. The question is when they pull the trigger. it is either going to happen at the Royal Rumble (which seems the usual place) or at WM where the breakup occurs on the next RAW.

cm funk Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I don't always agree with Johnny but there's clear evidence of slow building character development/dissension between Reigns and Ambrose. It's directly in front of the audience on the screen in plain sight. The examples aren't hard to find. I actually think they've been heavy handed with it. It hasn't felt organic at all to me. They think they're doing a Batista face turn with Reigns, which actually was organic, but this is not that. It's just so blatant and obvious that they want to push this face turn with him, by their own choice. Fans weren't clamoring to see Roman Reigns: Diesel pt. 2. I thought the Survivor Series "monster moment" with him came off so forced. Maybe that's just me, but I'm not feeling it. If anything, this stuff is making Ambrose look like gold and exposing Reigns as a guy who's not quite ready for this push Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
