DMJ Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 I know this is a separate conversation, but I'd throw Big E's name right in there with Rusev's as a guy that if you put him in there in the final 4 alongside Reigns, Corbin, and, say, Sheamus and Jinder, I think that crowd would rally behind Big E. I thought the New Day's popularity was dwindling when they jumped to SmackDown way back, but the Usos feud was great and kept them over and Big E, while maybe not the most versatile guy in the group, has the size to go face-to-face with anybody on the roster - Lesnar included. Now, I'm not saying Big E/AJ Styles is where they should go for WrestleMania just like I don't think anyone really sees Rusev as a legit contender, but the larger point is - moving into 2019, maybe instead of trying to fabricate stars like they did with Jinder this year, they should actually give a shot to some of these guys who are actually over. Big E/Styles and Rusev/Styles remind me of those times Flair would face someone like Bobby Eaton or Ricky Morton where the challenger was obviously on a lesser tier but the matches worked because both guys were over, were very good at what they did, and the pairing was fresh.

Loss Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 I won't criticize them for not pushing Rusev when they haven't not pushed Rusev yet, even if I don't expect it. But I would put his chances above someone like Daniel Bryan for a variety of reasons. He's a big guy and he's their own creation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 I won't criticize them for not pushing Rusev when they haven't not pushed Rusev yet, even if I don't expect it. But I would put his chances above someone like Daniel Bryan for a variety of reasons. He's a big guy and he's their own creation. If they're putting a heel over (especially a midcard one like Corbin or someone), I could see him in the Santino role vs ADR. It's not like any of that actually worked though.

El-P Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Going back to the prediction stuff, I just hope it won't suck like last year (yeah it had the great Cena vs Aj match and fuck else, with the Braun section of the Rumble being the only real fun part of the match), because if I stay up all night to watch it with you people, they better book some good shit.

Strummer Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 So with what went down today in football what are the chances Steph comes out at #30 wearing a Tom Brady jersey in Philly? They really lucked out for some potential heat segments with the Eagles making the SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEdger Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Please, don't give them any ideas. The last thing the Women's Rumble needs is a Stephanie McMahon entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamthedoctor Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Now, I'm not saying Big E/AJ Styles is where they should go for WrestleMania just like I don't think anyone really sees Rusev as a legit contender, but the larger point is - moving into 2019, maybe instead of trying to fabricate stars like they did with Jinder this year I don't think Rusev as ever been seen as a legit contender, not after he was losing to undercard guys. The best thing he's ever had in his career is putting over Cena on 3 separate consecutive PPVs. Please, don't give them any ideas. The last thing the Women's Rumble needs is a Stephanie McMahon entry. They would probably have her win it too being the first womens Rumble.

Loss Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Dave said on WOR that Miz has a big match planned for WM, so he's getting a big push right now. This and the staredown from last night suggests there's fire behind the smoke of Daniel Bryan getting cleared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boss Rock Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Forgive me for asking, but how do you do the spoiler tag? There's one I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Forgive me for asking, but how do you do the spoiler tag? There's one I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned yet. You go to that third icon over on the top tool bar. It looks like a horizontal bar graph and when you hover it says "Special BBCode" Once you click that use the pulldown menu to select spoiler and type or copy/paste what you want into the box. It took me entirely too long to figure that out when I was first trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
