Loss Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 He's also someone that with seasoning has the potential to be a really great worker and top star. But I think he's been pigeonholed.
KawadaSmile Posted May 9, 2018 Author Report Posted May 9, 2018 I am a Mojo fan for sure. He has the intensity you need for basically any type of role you could ask of him - he was good as this hyper jock, and now he's even better as this cold, chilling blood knight. His in-ring is also good, considering how much focus he's had in the past few years and how much of his push was sort of derailed by Ryder's bad luck.
Matt D Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 He's also someone that with seasoning has the potential to be a really great worker and top star. But I think he's been pigeonholed. What he really needs a Destroyer mask.
C.S. Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 I'm surprised no one has brought up the fact that Rusev beating Bryan makes Rusev more of a heel, when the opposite is what should be happening. I don't want to be one of those ridiculous fans who calls a huge win a "burial," but the direction they're going in with Rusev's character seems counter to what the fans want. It's so frustrating when WWE buries their heads in the sand. I remember the same thing happening with "Bad News" Barrett when the fans wanted to cheer him. And of course, the big example of this is Roman Reigns. I agree about Mojo. His heel work surprised me. Is he a great in-ring technician? No. Does he need more seasoning? Sure. But I wish they'd run with him a bit more than they have. Why did they even bother to break up the Hype Bros. in the first place if neither man was going to go anywhere after?
Jmare007 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Well, last week it seemed they were building to Lana making Rusev turn on Aiden because he kept losing and was too goofy - as shown in the Elias segment at Backlash - but now Rusev got the a huge W (they can even play it as the biggest in his career because it was clean) so they either scrapped those plans or may have something interesting going.
SomethingSavage Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 How awesome would it be if they made this summer Rusev Season and basically gave him what they gave Bryan back in the summer of 2013? I mean, I don't think it'll happen. But we can still hope. Way back in the very first season of South Park, they did an episode where Stan had this big, deformed clone. Big Cass basically looks like the massive mutant clone of Edge - right down to the bug-eyed, hair-yanking mannerisms and the catfish face. It's an uncanny resemblance.

fakeplastictrees Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Saline or Silicone? Does anyone know if WWE has an internal ban on either one? I would assume Silicone would be the one frowned upon. Ultimately, there are no ABC regulations so this would be WWE's call going forward.
Zoo Enthusiast Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 Well, last week it seemed they were building to Lana making Rusev turn on Aiden because he kept losing and was too goofy - as shown in the Elias segment at Backlash - but now Rusev got the a huge W (they can even play it as the biggest in his career because it was clean) so they either scrapped those plans or may have something interesting going.Yeah this definitely didn't feel like trying to make him more of a heel. It was just great stuff. Show was bookended with two really good matches, I thought.
Jmare007 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 one of Charlotte's implants burst and she needs sugery According to PWInsider once source believes she's getting surgery after the European tour, wtf.
SomethingSavage Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 I know a chick that had the same thing happen to her, and she literally lived with it for like 2+ months until 1) she had the money, and 2) they could schedule her for another surgery.
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 EC3 in NXT kind of seems like a waste. He could be on the main roster.
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Pete Dunne's casual shrug at "you know you're a piece of garbage" was brilliant. This Kai storyline is fucking stupid unless you have her finally snap and take the belt off Baszler.
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Ohno might need to consider trading the standard tights in for some pants.
Slasher Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I have no problems with Rusev over DB because Rusev is due a push again on Smackdown, and DB is basically a made man. But I disagree with the idea that DB is some kind of underdog. He isn't. He's the guy who wrestled gauntlet matches by himself, he beat the Shield, he beat Evolution practically. He in his main event run was a guy booked to wrestle on top. The only underdog thing about him is his size and the booking itself of his character against the "A list" guys in segments and promos that has nothing to do with his wrestling style. In that way, no, DB shouldn't have lost to Rusev. But in reality he doesn't need to be in that ladder match anyways. So yeah, go Braun!
Strummer Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Prowrestlingsheet says Cass has heat on him for going off script in the "Little Daniel Bryan" segment last week. He wasn't supposed to continue beating on him after the kick but he did. Vince and the agents were pissed
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 If true, what a fucking moron. Don't rock the boat when you are a talentless big man that just shit the bed on PPV with a good worker. Enzo really was telling the truth when he said Cass was just a line he wrote.
SomethingSavage Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Big Cass quickly becoming the Baron Corbin of this year.
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I hate Baron Corbin but man does Big Cass wish he had enough talent to be Baron Corbin.
Strummer Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I knew something happened with him not interfering in the main event with Bryan and Rusev
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Is he the worst wrestler on the main roster now?
PeteF3 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I guess the thing about Cass is that he asked ahead of time if he could continue the beatdown after the kick, was told no, and then did it anyway. Not sure why it wasn't beaten into his head in the Performance Center that it's easier to get forgiveness than permission.
Mad Dog Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 I guess the thing about Cass is that he asked ahead of time if he could continue the beatdown after the kick, was told no, and then did it anyway. Not sure why it wasn't beaten into his head in the Performance Center that it's easier to get forgiveness than permission. Twice. He asked an agent and was told no and then asked Vince and was told no. So he double fucked up.
Loss Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 We dodged a bullet there. He's tall so all will eventually be forgotten, but at least the inevitable got postponed.
Strummer Posted May 10, 2018 Report Posted May 10, 2018 Bryan teamed with Tye Dillinger today at the show in Germany against Cass and Miz. Just a house show but I think it's obvious they don't have a clear direction for him now
