I have a question about the women. I don't really watch or follow NXT, but I did see the 2 Sasha/Bayley matches, and was very impressed. But my question is about Becky Lynch. Why, of all that was available in NXT was she chosen to move up? Just my opinion, but she rarely ever wins a match, and has no noticeable charisma to sustain her. she seems to be the weakest of all the women in terms of ability and promo work. So what am I missing?
The same thing that WWE Creative is missing, that she can work and showed a lot of charisma in NXT. It just comes down to how she is being used in WWE, which isn’t very well.
Why was Rusev, Bray Wyatt, and Brock Lesnar omitted from the tournament? Why was Tyler Breeze included considering he is only on the roster for a couple of weeks?
Because Vince McMahon decides who is in the tourney, and who isn’t. You can’t blame him with Lesnar, who wasn’t on the UK tour and is not slated to work the Survivor Series. It is a weak storyline item, for sure, but that is what happens when you use part timers. Taker is already in the program with Bray Wyatt. Rusev has been put in the corner since his real life engagement to Lana leaked and ruined a storyline, plus he is injured. But having Breeze lose his debut? That was just stupid.
Apollo Crews has the look Vince McMahon desires in a superstar, plus a diverse move set combining both power and agility. However, i'm concerned that if brought up to the main roster and pushed to the moon, he would encounter a lot of negative fan backlash, similar to what Roman Reigns encountered. Do you see this happening, or would the fans still take to him no matter how hard he was pushed?
I don’t see it happening because hell, if Vince McMahon hadn’t screwed Reigns by announcing that the fan’s guy, Daniel Bryan, was returning at the Royal Rumble, they would have never turned on Roman in the first place. They liked him before that but then he got pushed at the expense of Bryan in their eyes, and they turned on him. It was a really bad decision by McMahon.
When Rollins comes back, would you bring him back in his current heel role, or bring him back as a face, which is a role more suited to his wrestling style?
I have been saying that they should have turned him babyface for a while now. His in-ring work is very much that of a face and if they have him stand up to The Authority and lay our Triple H, I think the fans would be totally into it.
So I was really looking forward to RAW after a while to see exactly what they're going to do with the WWE Title Tournament, but I was also leery as asking WWE creative to be creative is like beating a dead horse. Not being sure if I should spend my time wathcing RAW, I decided to look at spoilers from the UK, and low and behold, the first match was Roman Reigns against THE BIG SHOW. I did not even care to read the rest of the spoilers and definitely did not care to watch RAW later that night. Here they had an opportunity to bring back some of us who have a lot of disdain for their creative atrocities, and they completely mess it up RIGHT in the beginning of the tournament. Seeing the abysmal ratings that just came out from RAW, is there ANY at all hope that things may turn around?
There is always hope and a chance, but I agree with you here. Vince did nothing to make the 900,000 people that have turned off Raw since June want to tune back in. I really don’t understand his thought pattern. If it’s me, I look at what I have been doing since people started tuning out and I try to make positive changes. He just keeps doing the same thing and hoping for a different result.
