Show and Kane, as I've said before, need to go. Seriously. Them getting shoved in to the main event like this is laughable, and they're keeping other guys down. how many guys could be the authority's enforcers, and get a bit of a push at the same time?

But no, we get Show, Kane, and J&J. I don't mind J&J as a comedy act, but seriously, wouldn't Rollins' security be more badass if it was, say, Titus O'Neill and Cesaro? Seriously.

J&J I like though, because they never need air time, if actual current wrestlers filled the roll we would have to have 1 if not 2 more authority smoz matches a week.

Thats a damn good point on J&J.

I was thinking that, but given how many matches get constantly rehashed, I'd be all right with that.

I don't need another Bryan and Kane. Give me Bryan and Cesaro instead.

Tbf I'd be cool with Bryan vs Jamie or Joey if done seriously.

I liked Noble back in the day. He and Nidia his kayfabe hick GF...

Something i ran across:
Technically lesnar should have been stripped of the title by Hell in a Cell.
The "defend every 30 days" clause.
While a buffer of a few days due to PPV dates is realistic, lesnar, before the January Royal Rumble, hadnt defended since Night of Champions...in September.

Ha, the days before digital!

So Samoa Joe has parted ways with TNA, do you guys want him in NXT?

I find it odd he didn't resign, especially in that he is in the main faction of the company... It would be like if Kane just left WWE right after Summerslam.

Joe goes to Japan where his style will mesh perfectly. He also had that match against Kenta Kobashi which sets up his legitimacy.

NXT is an insult to a wrestler of his experience and caliber.

Besides his look would never work.

Kenta & Bryan went through developmental and they are among the best mechanics ever.

still not over that NXT fatal four way

I swear to the all father if I hear any of these statements again I will shoot lightning out of my butt

1.) John Cena is the most popular superstar, no matter how many people dislike him.

2.) (John) is the hardest working superstar on the roster; despite not working Smackdown, Main Event, NXT or Superstars.... Hell when was the last time Cena pulled double duty on any show or PPV...

3.) NXT talent seem better because they have more time; no, Main Roster has 7 hours to fill a week without 3 more if PPV week... WWE just can't manage to get out of their own way.

4.) I can't buy into Ziggler beating Brock, but I can for Reigns...; Zigs is an (actual) wrestling champion with multiple accolades, Reigns is a failed football player.

5.) "Bryan is too small" yet cheers for Austin Aries, Taz, Rey Mysterio, ....

Bryan was an indie star for a decade who finally got a break. Samoa Joe is coming with a bit more stature to the table.

Joe wouldn't work in the WWE anyway. No one is going to buy Fred Flinstone being a monster against the current roster. Even the smaller men on the roster are bigger than the average TNA competitor Joe goes against.

TNA is an indie for all wwe thinks of it.

Sting(ah) disappeared for 15 years....(ah)

10 years in TNA and HoF'er

He sells the most merchandise, so, there's a monetary validity to that if nothing else.

2.) (John) is the hardest working superstar on the roster; despite not working Smackdown, Main Event, NXT or Superstars.... Hell when was the last time Cena pulled double duty on any show or PPV...
Never heard this in the context of pure wrestling dates. Heard it n the context of non wrestling appearances/make a wish type stuff...

3.) NXT talent seem better because they have more time; no, Main Roster has 7 hours to fill a week without 3 more if PPV week... WWE just can't manage to get out of their own way.
Again, never heard this in regards to NXT. Just that they get watered down when brought to the main roster.

4.) I can't buy into Ziggler beating Brock, but I can for Reigns...; Zigs is an (actual) wrestling champion with multiple accolades, Reigns is a failed football player.
It might be the way Ziggler sells so well. One could imagine a barrage of lesnar plexes quite literally killing him.
As to "failed football player"s, wrestlers like the Rock, Ernie Ladd, Brian Pillman, Dr. Death Steve Williams, Goldberg, and the biggest failure of all, current champion brock lesnar himself, plus loads of others, might argue that a football background, no matter the level of success, is not a bad thing, or a mark of shame in the wrestling business...😛

5.) "Bryan is too small" yet cheers for Austin Aries, Taz, Rey Mysterio, ....
No such thing as too small, if a 4 foot tall 56 pound Rey Mysterio can be a viable world champ.

Actually the whole charity thing is kinda bs... Everyone does charity in wwe in fact Ziggler was doing spec Olympics in Abu dahbi.

Ok

Champion wrestlers > Goldberg; at wrestling.

Ok

I'd love for other wrestlers to get more merch, but if Cena's stuff didnt sell it wouldnt get made....

Bullshit or not, what you said isnt ehst i've heard.

Cool.

Not sure what you're getting at there, other than you're biased against football?
I could research more football players slash champions but, the fact that, much as i hate the guy the current champion, a huge amateur success, one of the most dominant wrestlers ever, a cross over champ in a "legit" fighting sport, had a failed football carreer means that particular put down holds very little water.

Cool.
