Burgundy LaRue Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 And there is no way Rollins handles the fallout as well as Reigns did. Roman absorbed the heat and learned to thrive on it. Rollins deletes his Twitter when Sasha fans got too hot for him. He is in for a very bumpy ride. Quote

hammerva Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Yeah Vince better make sure that Rollins doesn't even look at his Twitter because I can only imagine the shit he would tweet in the next couple of days Quote
NintendoLogic Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Wait, did they seriously do a DQ finish in a Hell in a Cell Match? What the fuck is wrong with this company? Quote
Mad Dog Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 This has to kill their live attendance doesn't it? Quote
KawadaSmile Posted October 7, 2019 Author Report Posted October 7, 2019 Not sure if it'll affect live attendance that much, but I doubt RAW's viewership is going to be good. Quote

hammerva Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Again I don't think this will do wonders for AEW like people think it will because most of the people who are "fuck this company I won't watch it" still watch NXT because of how non WWE it seems.  But yeah given they will probably be gutted in the next draft as well as this shit, that attendance for RAW in the future is going to be something.  Quote
Jmare007 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Does WWE even have a program to force hardcore fans to fool themselves and keep watching hoping for shit to get better? Lesnar vs Cain ain't it. The women seem to be an endless loop with the same people on top (reminds me of the Cena/Batista/Orton years). Roman and Bryan are either gonna become a tag team and either do a slow burn to a future heel turn/program or just stay a tag for a while before "plans change". I'm way past giving them any benefit of the doubt and mainly focus on whatever Bryan is doing. But I'm trying to figure out what could a more optimistic fan (a notch below KawadaSmile, who could convince himself to watch at least every Smackdown because Cole is calling that show ) try to project/think about to convince himself to keep watching regularly.

KawadaSmile Posted October 7, 2019 Author Report Posted October 7, 2019 When will WWE get a clue that Rollins is not good for business? Quote

Hahahaa thanks for the shout out, bubba! SmackDown gave me quite a lot of reasons to keep on watching, to be honest. The "who done it" storyline and Buddy Murphy matches were great stuff, and the KOTR was one of the best tournaments ever. Now, we still have Bryan/Roman. As for RAW... they had some stuff going on for them: Ricochet and Cedric getting some big wins, The Fiend turning into this great character, Sasha returning. All this was interesting to me, but in this case they've managed to either kill it altogether (Rico and Ced not getting a decisive win over AJ was bullshit), or booked in a way that it's supposed to make us wait instead of develop anything. Sasha lost, and Bray Wyatt, despite getting absurd reactions, didn't walk out with the title. Those things are lame as shit, even for an optimistic fan like me. I will say, though, that I am curious about the Draft. Will they do a dumbass move like getting Roman on RAW and Seth on SD? Who knows? Quote
Alucard Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Haha. the fiend gimmick sucks. Goofy character, goofy match. Legit one of the worst things I can recall and to shit on top of an otherwise enjoyable show. I never wanna see that again but unfortunately the feud will continue and wyatt will end up on team flair at SaudiMania. Quote
Jmare007 Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 This watch along reaction for the last few minutes is fucking priceless  the DQ reaction is even better (at 3hr13min aprox.), Waltman got pissed lmao   7 minutes ago, KawadaSmile said: Hahahaa thanks for the shout out, bubba!

All of those things for SD are a thing of the past though, there's not a lot to look forward besides a Roman/Bryan alliance and possible/future break up. Completely forgot about the draft though. That's perfect for an optimistic (or blind) fan to continue to watch once there's new rosters (even though the brand split means jackshit right now) and possible future matchups. Oh well, I guess WWE will continue to mindfuck people to keep watching one way or another. Quote

The Revival being part of Orton's troupe was good too, and it leads to a reason to keep on watching, which is: will Heavy Machiney win those damn titles already? Quote
Strummer Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Oh man can they ever maintain any momentum? They end the most important week in 20 years with this?!?!? Quote
brocklock Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 It says so much about the match that The Fiend's awful cartoon character giant mallet is like the 6th or 7th stupidest thing that happened. That killed any credibility the character had with me. Quote
FMKK Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Just waking up and seeing what went on last night. This is WCW 2000. Quote

El-P Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Wow, that thread sure turned into an epic and now I want to see that giant cartoon mallet. But yeah, DQ in a HITC match is absolutely WCW 2000. Absolutely. Quote

WWE does watch along with people looking bored/appalled by their shows ? Also, is it bad that I don't recognize anyone but Waltman and Natalya (who looks about a billion times better here than she does on TV BTW). Natalya looked bored as fucking hell by this. This is not gonna stay on Youtube for long when your own guys are shitting on your product on a youtube stream... Quote
FMKK Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Waltman was great in the clip I saw. Really looked like he was holding back from a much bigger rant too. I'd have loved a watchalong with Cody, Jericho and Mox watching this. Quote
Mad Dog Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 So I don't think that was as bad as Katie Vick or the Undertaker ascending to heaven at the Rumble. But that has to be top 5 dumbest things I have ever seen them do. Quote

He actually killed one of those puppets with the mallet, so it's not like it wasn't introduced properly... I mean, it is goofy, but it is 100% in character. Quote
El-P Posted October 7, 2019 Report Posted October 7, 2019 Is Bray Wyatt, under any incarnation, officially the most Wrestlecrap main-eventer ever now or does Kane still hold that crown ? Quote
