Badlittlekitten Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think Emma is an example of the company convincing itself a gimmick can get over in the big leagues because it got over with the 400 or so college kids who go to NXT tapings every week. What sucks is from what I've seen she's actually pretty good in the ring, but saddling her with that gimmick is just instant death. This misses the point of how she got over in the first place. Her original appeal is that she was a cocky heel who thought she could dance but was painfully awkward at everything she did. A very wacky/silly character but you got to know her personality and motivations through promos, angles etc. not to mention matches. The crowd warmed to her, they wasn't told "Cheer This!" like in her first Raw segment. They introduced her in the worse possible way. She got over on NXT cos she was more than just the gimmick. It's a shame her and Summer Rae have been reduced to 'girlfriends who dance'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 OK that makes more sense. It was more than just stupid dancing that got her over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Emma should dress more like Santino. Emma should just gradually steal Santino's gimmick. In a few weeks, boom, Australian who now talks like an Italian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffey Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 OK that makes more sense. It was more than just stupid dancing that got her over. It also helped that she was really cute and there's not a huge roster in NXT, so they see the same familiar faces every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blehschmidt Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Fans are Yay'ing Del Rios punches, and Boo'ing Batista's. This return is going swimmingly. Also, Dave is blown up something fierce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Holy shit... Dave is losing his mind. Add the CM Punk chants and this is going to be a train wreck at Mania if they don't enter in some young blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Dog Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I kind of want them to job DB to Kane at Mania and go through with the Orton/Batista match just to see the fans riot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 So I assume that Cena is doing an injury angle and not really hurt. That was a pretty bad way that Rowan put him down to the mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I'm awaiting the Wheelchair match where Cena fights off the entire Wyatt Family to put Bray in a wheelchair and wheel him past the finish line.

Coffey Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Bryan/HHH, Orton/Batista & Cena/Wyatt is not a card I want to see. At all. Not even a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Cesaro is on an absolutely crazy streak this year. Is there any house show handhelds floating around? Far, far less than you'd expect. It's the most frustrating thing about the last year or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 They just showed a commercial for an upcoming house show. It wasn't billed as Raw or Smackdown, just WWE Live. How long has this been going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodhelmet Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It should be in Kane's contract, any wrestling activity he is in must contain Daniel Bryan in one form or fashion... either tagging with him or against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
