Yes, people have kicked out of the Attitude Adjustment almost every week. Thats insanely stupid booking. Now, if they did that to make the stunner his finisher I could get it but they are not.

I'm just not a fan 9f that finisher for Cena for some reason. I've always liked the FU as it was called before A.A

exactly. so let him play in the midcard for a year or so. build him up.. not just hand him the belt.

I was one of the ones who wasn't a fan of Reigns getting the shot, but the closer to Mania I was behind the idea. Although I woukd have been upset if he clean pin Lesnar

come on! the guys with in ring talent or a ton of charisma.
Back in the day it was guys like Bret Hart, Shawn Micahels... the golden age of wrestling!

WM31 Was the shit! not going to lie. I didn't really care that reigns took a beating like a lot of people did... that doesn't take talent. but when rollins came out to cash in... My whole house marked out. Insane moment. I would have been really pissed if reigns won at that point.

They absolutely pushed Reigns to fast. The issue was WWE fans were not going to let him get over while Daniel Bryan was around. The fans were not going to let anyone get over.

Reigns looked great at WM and Rollins cashing it in was awesome. Reigns and Lesnar was really good story telling.

I don't believe that. wrestling fans would have been fine with a ziggler push or a brock lesnar push or maybe even an ambrose push... just to name a few of guys. we were certainly fine with a rollins push.

CORRECTION: LESNAR Looked great. the story was pretty accurate. except for the cheesy ass smiling reigns refuses to stop doing.

I loved Rollins winning the title. However he is boring me more and more every week.

True but who is out there with the total package that is no in the main event scene. Dolph comes to mind but injuries took it from him last time and with Bryan injuries they might be cautious with Dolph getting g that shot

As a lesnar mark it made me like reigns more when he did that thought it added a dimension to his character

Rollins really is as close to the total package that wwe has. He has the look, the mic skills and the wrestling skills.
The problem is their system flat out sucks...he has the same gimmick every show and he never wins clean. It a recipe for fans to turn against him. On top of this he can't even use the curb stomp anymore.

Now you have Reigns getting the rub from Ambrose popularity. How nice for him.

Total packages are rare... most people excel in a few areas.. looks and charisma or charisma and in ring talent... but at least they possess a few. Reins just looked good.. My eyes say yes but my smarky mind says hell no.

I'm ready for a Dolph push or a Sandow push. The problem is as said not everyone can be at the top and not everyone at the top can play the mid card/humor/bathroom break role. It's really a lack of that type of talent that the WWE has IMO. They have no idea how to cultivate that area. They are trying with the IC and US Titles at least. ANd maybe tonight we get my idea of an NXT invasion angel to restore the woman's division.

Side note: I saw the end of LU the other day. It was a masked woman fighting a masked guy. That woman had decent move sets. Not a fan of her wrestling a guy. I don't see any need for it. But, she was good. Reminded me of the WWE 10-12 years ago.

Sandow is a great example of a guy that deserves a push because his charisma is through the roof.
No not everybody can be at the top or midcard but if the roster is so big give some guys time off or get rid of guys like The Miz.
Its not a lack of talent.... its a lack of knowledge or willingness to make the most out of the talent they have.

LU is incredible in the way they use their women. Its not anything like the attitude era. Sexy Star is the woman you saw. She is phenomenal in the ring and her story is about courage and not being afraid to stand up for what is right. Pentagon Jr is who she was fighting.. he is a bully who has gone after women several times.
Its character development that surpasses anything you will or have ever seen on WWE.
I am not bothered that she fights men.. I love it. She is powerful.

Here's a great segment on sexy star.
This was recorded before the match you saw. The reason she lost was because of superfly who she unmasked in a previous match.

It was part of the story telling and it was awesome. It made him tell fans I can stand toe to toe with him. It was awesome. People who didn't get that made up their mind on him already.

haha! toe to toe? by getting suplexed to hell? That's not the story I got out of it and it has nothing to do with me making up my mind on reigns... I can appreciate a good match no matter what.

This is why he should be in the midcard for a while... his character needs more development so when he finally goes for the belt its organic and the fans are excited rather than him just getting the belt because he popped in his blue contact lenses.
