goc Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 What is "a main event"? There's only one match that goes on last. And there ain't no way they go on after Cena/Rolllins or Brock/Taker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 To me a main event is a featured match that can draw and which is positioned as such. I have long disagreed with people who think there is only ever one main event on any given card. Lots of times 2-3 matches will be drawing.

dawho5 Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Personally, unless it's something like Shield vs. Wyatts I don't think six mans should be on the big shows. The six mans build to regular tags and singles matches on big shows unless they are the featured attraction (lucha, 3 man stables, etc.).

Grimmas Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 The women's will be the 4th to 6th biggest match on the show, hardly a main event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 3 vs 3 vs 3 is a good way to bury something that had potential to be hot. And a good way to bury Charlotte and Sasha who everyone is crying about at the moment. 1 vs. 1 in a feature feud if you are going to do it. First match screw finish Sasha over, second match draw, third match cage blow off. Make these girls stars don't fucking hide them among .... what SEVEN other divas? CRAP.

JerryvonKramer Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Charlotte also needs to cut a promo saying like "We are not fucking divas, we're wrestlers! Like my dad was a wrestler! Like the Four Horsemen were wrestlers! WOOOO!" Something like that. She'd be hot in seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryvonKramer Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Writing staff are absolutely retarded with this deal of "let's put ALL of the people in one division in one match". They've been doing it for ages now, like they aren't actually creative enough to book an actual division to make it feel like a division so they just think "ah shit, let's just stick them all in one match". Seen them do it with the tag titles, they did it with the IC title and they are doing it with the women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2PhoneShawty Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Sting's run has been very disappointing. The only dream matches I have for him are with Cena and Undertaker, and the Cena one probably isn't happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen them do it with the tag titles, they did it with the IC title and they are doing it with the women. I completely agree. I really hope they don't do that mulli-women match and they have announced it, it just feels like that. A Charlotte vs Sasha singles match would be ideal, winner gets to face (and beat) Nikki for the title. Also, this whole divas revolution needs to stop. They need to just call the real wrestlers women and they can still call the Bellas divas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 I can't believe the Divas argument is still happening. We might as well post every week about how they need to be called wrestlers instead of Superstars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might as well post every week about how they need to be called wrestlers instead of Superstars. It's true that they should be called wrestlers instead of superstars, except you are missing one thing. For some reason a male wrestler is a superstar and a female wrestler is a diva. That is bullshit and offensive. Little shit like that is why a lot of people look down at wrestling and ridicule it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slasher Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 One level might be that it would disrespect the hard work and effort the "divas" put in their work and yes that is ttue. It is something similar to Russo's "Everything else was fake but THIS IS REAL!" In terms of marginalizing things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that gets rid of the word diva altogether is good. I would prefer they just change everything over, but this is the way the titles are named. Nxt is women and wwe is divas.

Zoo Enthusiast Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 They should just call the men women, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slasher Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Even if it was an angle, you can only logically call those divas "wrestlers" after the storyline runs its course. The payoff can't be that the wrestlers accepts being called divas after they spent that time running down the word and the people associated with it. Vince isn't willing to give the women that term if the men are stuck with "Superstars". It is just an unneccesary corner to paint themselves into.

NotJayTabb Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 They need to just call the real wrestlers women and they can still call the Bellas divas. Wrong on so many levels. Name some levels. I think it's wrong on the level that the Bellas are perfectly decent wrestlers, albeit not on the level of a Becky or a Sasha. Nikki especially has been putting out good performances since winning the title, and I thought Brie more than held her own during the Battleground 3-way (arguably looking better than Charlotte in the process). Separating them from the other women wrestlers implies they're on the level of the Rosas and Camerons of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
