Why was Roman Reigns booked as a heel the night after Wrestlemania yet moments after Mania on ESPN and a week later in a backstage segement acted like a complete face who was sorry for how things went down? I get the crowd were hot on him, but to come out, smirk and say this is my yard now to boo’s and walk off is a complete heel move, which not only goes against how they booked him prior, but also the very next week! So short sighted its silly.
I didn’t see it like you did. He wasn’t a heel the day after Mania. He let the crowd do what everyone knew they would do, then he told the truth, he beat Taker. I actually think that was one of the best things WWE could have done in that situation. I loved it.
What is your take on what Randy Orton said about indy wrestling?
If I were him, I would have left it alone but I can’t say he was wrong in his message. I love the indies and respect the guys that work there, but if you talk to at least 9 out of 10 of those talents, they would say that they would love to go to work for WWE. WWE wouldn’t let them do a lot of the stuff that they do on the indies, plus when you look at the toll doing those kinds of matches has taken on guys like Daniel Bryan, part of what he is saying is that it’s great to kill yourself for a small payday in front of a small crowd, but it probably won’t help you if your long term goal is to make it to WWE. He has a point there.
Do you think Finn Balor should have separate entrance themes for his normal entrance and his demon character? His music fits the demon character perfectly and it would make that entrance even more unique if it was reserved only for when he is in the demon character.
I like that idea. Then, when you hear the current music, you know the Demon is coming out and “things just got real”.
It is my understanding that the champions keep their respective belts and travel with them wherever they go. If that's the case, is the universal belt sitting in Brock's home for the next few months? If WWE wanted to use the belt for tv purposes before Brock returns, would they send someone to pick up the belt, or use a replica instead?
The belts are taken on the road by the talents because they need them at events. I can’t say for sure but my guess would be that Brock left the belt behind with the company since, obviously, he won’t be doing house shows.
Has there ever been a contract signing where action did not break out?
Yes, there have been some where there was a stipulation in place where the parties couldn’t touch each other until the match.
