OGs know who's the best fit to run the business they started. Real recognize real.

Also Asuka nerding out over her new VR setup is the wholesome content we need in 2020.

Remember when Wyatt was very over, won the title seemingly out of nowhere after pinning AJ Styles AND John Cena and then Orton proceeded to get more over than him during the course of their feud?

[sek69]

Randy Orton is solidly in that group of people I can admit are very good at professional wrestling yet I can't manage to make myself give a shit about anything they do.

The match last night was good, arguably great even, but god damn is the prospect of Orton as champ again seem like a wrestling version of the movie Groundhog Day.

What I said in the PPV thread still stands:

Imagine the deep hurt, the severe mental and emotional pain, the sheer shock and betrayal The Usos must be feeling right now after seeing Afa and Sika embrace Roman. Breaks my damn heart...

I want Jimmy and Jey to take that hurt, that pain, that shock, that betrayal, and use it against Afa and Sika in the most savage manner possible. Beat the shit out of them, spill their blood, bite their flesh off.

Then turn to Roman and SCREAM:

"How do like THAT, Uce???"

(I've been watching too many horror movies. Can you tell?)

[KawadaSmile]

Are you alright, bubba? Don't want any cannibalism in my wrestling show, no.

I can respect that. Personally I'm in the camp that thinks Orton would possibly be the best wrestler in this planet if he gave a fuck more often, but he wouldn't be Orton if he did that.

If find his no fucks given personality very damn amusing. Dude at some point was doing the splits and fist pumps just for the hell of it. Wearing night vision goggles. Weird shit, man. 

[KawadaSmile]

Miz is just really damn good.

That's a complicated question.  

[KawadaSmile]

Big Jordan's drip, tho. 

[Tenese Sarwieh]

If they really want to go all the way with things have vignettes of Afa, Sika, and the rest of the Samoans shunning the Usos along with Rikishi. 

Also they know damn well not to put Jordan in that small ass suit, lol.

[KawadaSmile]

Jordan is out there carrying grown men like they are babies. Holy shit.

[sek69]

Laying out the Miz when he just won the MITB briefcase is certainly a WWE thing to do.

[SirEdger]

Does anybody actually expect The Miz to successfully cash-in?

I actually wouldn't be surprised if he did, WWE thinks highly of him and so does  the USA Network since he has two shows there.

Now I don't *expect* him to successfully cash in, but it wouldn't be the shock of all shocks if he does.

[sek69]

Sheamus over Riddle, gotta make them new stars pal!

[sek69]

Also as much as I don't particularly want to see it, at least Orton vs Bray makes sense kayfabe wise. He did burn the man's house down.

Riddle is a liability. They clearly want to jump off that sinking ship or hope the ship disappears at sea so they can start pushing him again. Either/or would probably be fine with this company.

Gotta go with the better wrestler and the one who hasn't done terrible things. Riddle at this point is clearly a no-no. 

[sek69]

WWE doesn't seem to care about Riddle's issues. Hell, they even had it mentioned as a throwaway line in a promo.

Personally, I'd put him on ice until the lawsuit is settled, but if he's going to put people over I'd rather it not be a 15 year veteran with spinal stenosis.

[KawadaSmile]

They seem to care enough that they stopped his push on its tracks the moment the story got traction.

Like, he debuted on SD with a win over AJ Styles and was poised to win the IC belt before things took on a bigger proportion.

[FMKK]

So why is he on TV at all then? Doing punishment jobs on a shitty wrestling show doesn't really live up to the seriousness of the allegations at hand.

[KawadaSmile]

I got no clue. Maybe the answer is just "Vince doesn't like the guy and has no idea about the allegations" or something much more simpler.

The thing is that this case doesn't only involve Riddle. They could part ways with him if it was just that, but you got Drake Younger screwing over Candy Cartwright, and he is seen as this inspiring figure in NXT, so you can't just part ways with him as well.

Shit became a cult and they barely even noticed.

[DMJ]

Doing jobs is part of a "push" now. Same as being part of a shitty/comedy stable. And being somebody's sidekick. Its all the "brilliance" of Vince McMahon's longterm booking.

It took like 10 years for Drew McIntyre to go from semi-decent push to midcard filler matches to 3MB comedy to being Ziggler's sidekick to beating Brock Lesnar.

Matt Riddle, Slapnuts, and T-Boz are going to be mega stars in 2030 and then who'll be a "bad booker"?
