Nice opening package, although I'm kind of getting tired of these overblown videos in general...the music and overly dramatic production is starting to get annoying.
Here's a crappy idea a had for the finish at EC,Only Cena and Bryan are left at the chamber then,LIGHTS OUT Brock appears and destroys both and the match is ruled a No contest.Moving foward to Raw,Brock wants a match for the tittle,Hollywood Batista comes out saying they should give the title to him since he's the best and won the RR.With all the shenanigans at Wrestlemania The authority decides to to do a mini-tournament With Batista,Brock,Bryan and Cena
At wrestlemania
match 1:Bryan vs Batista,Bryan wins via tapout match 2:Cena vs Brock,Lesnar pins Cena and wins the rematch
Main event:Bryan vs Brock,Bryan wins by pinfall after a 30 minute match
Remember this a fantasy booking,I'm not being objective(like heenan in the rumble of 92),the goal is to Bryan have a Huge Mania moment.
I fully expect every episode to have The Miz. I'm not even kidding. That's the only function he actually seems to fulfill these days. Providing robotic talking head soundbites.
I'm not watching, but that sounds terrible. Trish/Mickie was that weird angle that really should have been a total steaming disaster but somehow turned out awesome thanks to the talent of the two women involved.
Woods looked pretty good, aside from the ridiculous attempts at showing excitement (he looked rather bushleague), but right now he's the jobbiest of jobbers.
I don't think Emma is being written as having a crush. She just wants to be popular. The feud stems from the fact that she keeps appearing during Fandango segments, which essentially means she's hogging the spotlight from Summer Rae.
Still think Ryback has potential as an upper mid-card guy. He has natural heel charisma. Curtis Axel though...total waste of time, he's more solid in the ring than Ryback but he just doesn't have "IT".
Ugh, this turn. We REALLY don't have enough decent midcard babyfaces to support this sudden influx of midcard heels. And turning him now in the middle of WM season pretty much leaves him destined to become Shad Gaspard 2.0.
On the plus side, if Darren Young becomes JTG 2.0 as a result, he can look forward to ten more years of gainful employment.
This has shades of breaking up the New Hart Foundation and Cryme Tyme for no reason. A year from now, Darren Young will be cut and Titus will be jobbing on Superstars once a month.
Ryback has decent heel charisma, but he's more or less unsalvageable at an upper midcard/main event level. It's not his fault, but this Goldberg stuff is clearly never going to go away. Unless they throw a bunch of money at Goldberg to come in and squash him and put the comparisons to bed. But Ryback isn't really worth the expense.
Let's get those two to beef up the tag division. We've lost the PTP, Real Americans are rumored to be breaking up, and The SHIELD is clearly headed for a split.
Seriously, one of my favorite procrastination tactics is just watching Jake promos on YouTube. I could literally watch classic Jake promos all fucking day. He's the rare promo you just want to luxuriate with.
#ChristiansBack is the official hashtag, yet I wonder if anyone is just going to assume that some boil on Christian's back is the reason for the trend?
I heard CM Punk dumping AJ to take time off AND Titus turning on Darren Young are related.. apparently Punk wants to spend more 'personal' time with his NXT rookie
The most overhyped "punishment" of all time. Sure he got the KOTR taken away but by the fall he was IC champ (Back when that still meant something) and was working a good program with Marc Mero all the while heading to a probable Mania program against Mr.Perfect before Curt was lured down south.
I've said it before but just send Scott Norton and Meng out to meet them! Eric says don't worry about any criminal charges we'll take care of you and voila, angle squashed!
It came in earlier today, and I'm having a BLAST! with it now. Nothing like reliving the days of the Billy Joe Saga in New Orleans. Oh, and playing other games.
I do have WWF Royal Rumble coming in, but I'm NOT touching WWF Attitude, or the ECW knockoffs, with a 100 foot pole.
Scott Norton and Wrath both should've been world champions........ Bryan Adams (Crush) also should've gotten a shot at becoming at least intercontinental champ in WWF and U.S. champ in WCW
Hello Blog of doomers,have a nice evening.
ReplyDeleteThis is the longest recap ever!
ReplyDeleteNice opening package, although I'm kind of getting tired of these overblown videos in general...the music and overly dramatic production is starting to get annoying.
ReplyDeleteYou too
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteBrush your hair right Ambrose.
ReplyDeleteAnd the dissolution of the Shield begins.
ReplyDeleteSeth dropped the B word in regards to the US title!
ReplyDeleteTriple powerbomb vickie!
ReplyDeleteHere comes HHH to suck the energy of the promo.
ReplyDeleteHe's going bald, and trying to keep it wet so the combover doesn't look so obvious.
ReplyDeleteI tried that before...after a while I gave into the inevitable...
I think he was to add a psycho look but to me it looks stupid.
ReplyDeleteDid Rollins mention that its THEIR yard?
ReplyDelete*Cue one of the Bikertaker themes*
Is he the Groundskeeper of the Shield?
ReplyDeleteRoman Reigns is the shit.
ReplyDeleteIs that a 'prove it' or 'bullshit' chant?
ReplyDeleteHey guys,I'm having this thing with Disqus,everytime a post something some words disappear and I have to edit again.
ReplyDeleteCOOHHH is face tonight, I see. If he was an animal, I guess he'd be a BiPolar Bear...
ReplyDeleteHe definitely improved and is showing skill on the mic,I take it back my early criticism with him.
ReplyDeleteAll 3 guys are awesome.
ReplyDeleteThey really are.
ReplyDeleteThey all have a chance to be Main eventers.
ReplyDeleteWell, Groundskeeper Willie's a ginger like Calaway was, so..
ReplyDeleteDolph vs Cesaro & Christian vs Swagger with the last 2 Elimination Chamber spots on the line?
ReplyDeleteThat's a pleasant surprise.
It's Cesaro Time.
ReplyDeleteBut is it scheduled for one fall?! Come on, Lillian! DO YOUR JOB!
ReplyDeleteI predict Christian for "Guy who gets fucked up by Brock and has his spot taken."
ReplyDelete*sigh* If this was the Attitude Era, Zeb's signs would be much more awesome.
ReplyDeleteI'm really not all that certain they would be.
ReplyDeleteThis opening series of moves is pretty damn ace
ReplyDeleteWith how he whips his head around, it's any wonder how Ziggler hasn't been concussed far more often than he has been.
ReplyDeleteI just miss political incorrectness.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh. Zeb's sign. Always a bright spot in the dark world that is WWE.
ReplyDeleteI think you're right.
ReplyDeleteI think Brock comes out at the end and the match goes no-contest.
ReplyDeleteBrock...on Smackdown?!
ReplyDeleteAT EC
ReplyDeleteAlright, JBL. The John Anderson joke was clever once. Time to find a new bag.
ReplyDeleteThe impact of Zigg's bumps is insane! Oh and giant swing! But the crowd boos cause it was short!
ReplyDeleteGenuine push for Antonio Cesaro or is this a Tyson Kidd go in there and make the stars look good kind of deal?
ReplyDeleteI swear, Summer Rae just has less fabric on every time I see her. By WM, she'll be wearing mint floss.
ReplyDeleteTorrie Wilson style! Oh wait this is the PG era.
ReplyDeleteJust be glad it's not the 'G' era.
ReplyDelete'Oh my goodness, Summer Rae is showing off her bare ankles!'
Somewhere in between, most likely.
ReplyDeleteThe idea, though, of a title match with Bryan defending against Cesaro fills me with warm tingly feelings.
Fantasy booking Mode on
ReplyDeleteHere's a crappy idea a had for the finish at EC,Only Cena and Bryan are left at the chamber then,LIGHTS OUT Brock appears and destroys both and the match is ruled a No contest.Moving foward to Raw,Brock wants a match for the tittle,Hollywood Batista comes out saying they should give the title to him since he's the best and won the RR.With all the shenanigans at Wrestlemania The authority decides to to do a mini-tournament With Batista,Brock,Bryan and Cena

match 2:Cena vs Brock,Lesnar pins Cena and wins the rematch
Main event:Bryan vs Brock,Bryan wins by pinfall after a 30 minute match
Remember this a fantasy booking,I'm not being objective(like heenan in the rumble of 92),the goal is to Bryan have a Huge Mania moment.
I don't know how this countdown show is going to get a half-hour out of counting down entrances and catchphrases.
ReplyDeleteNo Contest in a PPV main event...again!
ReplyDeleteNO BUYS!
That giant swing probably brought back memories of last summer
ReplyDeleteI said it was a bad idea,but a had to share.
ReplyDeleteSo apparently R-Truth and Xavier Woods' gimmick is that one of them wrestles, and the other does commentary?
ReplyDeleteAll depends on the talking heads. Some eps will be good, other's not depending on who's doing the talking that week.
ReplyDeletePlus they have to be a lil objective, if it's WWE approved whitewashing BS it'll flop.
BOD what the fuck is up tonight
ReplyDeleteEmma is adorable and I want one.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to reiterate my desire to have sex with Emma
ReplyDeleteI've posted below a crappy fantasy booking idea for EC.
ReplyDeleteSo is this Summer/Emma thing a PG version of Trish/Mickie or what?
ReplyDeleteI fully expect every episode to have The Miz. I'm not even kidding. That's the only function he actually seems to fulfill these days. Providing robotic talking head soundbites.
ReplyDeletehttp://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/395/200/ba4.jpg

ReplyDeleteI don't think Emma is being written as having a crush. She just wants to be popular. The feud stems from the fact that she keeps appearing during Fandango segments, which essentially means she's hogging the spotlight from Summer Rae.
ReplyDeleteI've seen jobbier.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else think the Lego Movie actually looks tight as shit?
ReplyDeleteWonder Woman's big screen debut is as a lego figure! Meanwhile Marvel's like hey here's a Raccoon with a machine gun, deal with it!
ReplyDeleteIf you shits are tight, you need more fiber.
ReplyDeleteAnd Jesse Eisenberg is Lex Luthor.
ReplyDeleteJobber team 1 vs Jobber team 2.
ReplyDeleteOr share a cellblock with Justin Bieber and Deebo
ReplyDeleteThe Armstrongs vs. High Voltage
ReplyDeleteStill think Ryback has potential as an upper mid-card guy. He has natural heel charisma. Curtis Axel though...total waste of time, he's more solid in the ring than Ryback but he just doesn't have "IT".
ReplyDeleteCue heel turn in 3...2...1...
ReplyDeleteAfter he lost to Punk at HIAC they should had gave him the IC and destroy the midcard to keep his status.
ReplyDeleteUgh, this turn. We REALLY don't have enough decent midcard babyfaces to support this sudden influx of midcard heels. And turning him now in the middle of WM season pretty much leaves him destined to become Shad Gaspard 2.0.
ReplyDeleteOn the plus side, if Darren Young becomes JTG 2.0 as a result, he can look forward to ten more years of gainful employment.
THE PRIMETIME PLAYERS EXPLODE!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis has shades of breaking up the New Hart Foundation and Cryme Tyme for no reason. A year from now, Darren Young will be cut and Titus will be jobbing on Superstars once a month.
So the overish Titus turns on the not very over Darren Young. Uh...
ReplyDeleteHate crime?
ReplyDeleteSWEET Spongebob & Patrick sign in the background.
ReplyDeleteRyback has decent heel charisma, but he's more or less unsalvageable at an upper midcard/main event level. It's not his fault, but this Goldberg stuff is clearly never going to go away. Unless they throw a bunch of money at Goldberg to come in and squash him and put the comparisons to bed. But Ryback isn't really worth the expense.
ReplyDeleteLet's get those two to beef up the tag division. We've lost the PTP, Real Americans are rumored to be breaking up, and The SHIELD is clearly headed for a split.
ReplyDeleteSurprised there wasn't a Spongebob gimmick in Chikara.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, one of my favorite procrastination tactics is just watching Jake promos on YouTube. I could literally watch classic Jake promos all fucking day. He's the rare promo you just want to luxuriate with.
ReplyDeleteVince and co are so ahead of the game....
ReplyDeleteYou are a sick man Jake Roberts!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
You can't script that shit!
HHH mode on
ReplyDeleteC'mon,guys We have the New age outlaws as tag champions,what more do you want?
Shit, if Cole hadn't reminded me that Swagger was last year's Chamber winner, I never would have remembered.
ReplyDeleteHope the spliff was worth it, Jack.
Having the NAO as champs actually advances the HHH/Authority storyline, so its not really an awful move....
ReplyDelete...aw hell, its terrible...
Abandon all hope,Hunter is now the king.
ReplyDeleteDoes someone here played Max Payne 2,I gotted for my Ps2,pretty good game.
ReplyDeleteSo over/under on how many months until Rusev is a lovable, dancing goof?
ReplyDeleteWho's this blonde chick?
ReplyDeleteLana
ReplyDeleteShe's also someone who can get it.
2 months.
ReplyDeleteThe least ready NXT guy of course gets the promotion.
ReplyDeleteChristian got a nice pop, always enjoyed his work...
ReplyDeleteId like to see them bring back Kozlov and make em a tag team...
ReplyDeleteHow about we just replace Lawler with Dutch?
ReplyDeleteRyback would probably wind up injuring Goldberg, which would be pretty ironic...
ReplyDeleteJust googled her,very nice and she's an actress too. I shudder to think how bad she's in the ring though.
ReplyDeleteId be fine with Road Dogg and Dutch being the new announce team....
ReplyDeleteLawler's got a job for LIFE!
ReplyDeleteSo he could be gone at any time...
ReplyDeleteHe was the King yesterday and he will be the King tomorrow....
ReplyDelete#ChristiansBack is the official hashtag, yet I wonder if anyone is just going to assume that some boil on Christian's back is the reason for the trend?
ReplyDeleteHe is above all logic.
ReplyDeleteThe crowd sweetening is really obnoxious here.
ReplyDeleteIm guessing Swagger is headed for a face turn and Christian is headed for an injury angle to get him out of the EC....
ReplyDeleteRandy Orton,Daniel Bryan,John Cena,Sheamus,Antonio Cesaro & Christian.
ReplyDeleteThat's one hell of a line-up.
Yeah, there's no way Christian is keeping his spot.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering why I was hearing Hogan chants, just realized they used the crowd track from WM 18....
ReplyDeleteHMM Wrong guy,Cesaro should have the face
ReplyDeleteNeither is a face; I just don't get the split.
ReplyDeleteI honestly think they've changed course on the Brock Lesnar angle. How the Undertaker comes into play is still a mystery to me though.
ReplyDeleteThis. Swagger has no hope as a babyface unless he plays the 'MERICA card.
ReplyDeleteI agree, maybe they see Swagger as the next Angle....
ReplyDelete...No, not Kurt, Im thinking Eric Angle....
Swagger is terrible all around.
ReplyDeleteI wish Taker would sit this year out or feed him Sheamus...
ReplyDelete...I dont know anybody besides Vince that wants to see Taker/Brock again....
His ECW were pretty good.
ReplyDeleteNah, he had value before but they killed him dead....
ReplyDeleteGod, these Old Spice commercials are annoying
ReplyDeleteCesaro had the perfect face moveset,has the look and is better talking than Jack.
ReplyDeleteChristian is probably the best worker in that lineup outside of Bryan, but Im thinking he wont stay in there...
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking the exact same thing. Except creepy instead of annoying.
ReplyDeleteJust something about these mothers wanting their grown sons to be rejected by women so they can remain their little boys. So weird.
I wouldn't say that. But he has been hurt by how marginalized he's become.
ReplyDeleteOh I agree, the folks want to cheer Cesaro...
ReplyDelete...once again, Vince has the pulse on what the fans want....
There's a wrestling gimmick waiting to happen
ReplyDeleteIm convinced Kid Rock would have no career anymore if not for WWE....
ReplyDeleteI love how the first four or five panels of this WM montage had absolutely nothing to do with wrestling.
ReplyDelete-Shot of Ali
-Shot of Aretha
-Shot of Liberace
-Shot of Mr. T walking to the ring
And THEN Hogan bodyslamming the 91,000 lb. Andre.
OMG STOP TRYING TO MAKE KID ROCK A THING.
ReplyDeleteChristian, I love ya bud, but I have as good a chance at Main Eventing Mania....
ReplyDeleteBring the UFO as his finisher and the Ricola Bomb
ReplyDeleteHHH is the General Zod of Sportz Entertainment....
ReplyDelete13 whole minutes in the Rumble! Wow Kofi what an accomplishment!
ReplyDelete13 more minutes than Bryan :(
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of folks being misused....
ReplyDelete...Sandow belongs in the main event scene but lets keep pushing Orton and Big Show in top spots...
Nah, dude's a tank. He just needs to be booked as who he is: a big, strong, mean bastard. That easy.
ReplyDeleteAh, the losing streak gimmick! Always a proven money draw! ;_;
ReplyDeleteI heard CM Punk dumping AJ to take time off AND Titus turning on Darren Young are related.. apparently Punk wants to spend more 'personal' time with his NXT rookie
ReplyDeleteI wonder if he didnt get arrested if things wouldve went differently for him...
ReplyDeleteIf it was in the 80's he would be a perfect candidate for the Varsity club.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell he did to earn his fame,his music sucks.
ReplyDeleteThe ratings for Smackdown are gonna be horrible.... no Batista=low ratings
ReplyDeleteHeh. "Earn" and "fame". You're a riot.
ReplyDeleteForget Sandow we got Sheamus
ReplyDeleteLosing streak time for Sandow.
ReplyDeleteA modern VC would be great.
ReplyDeleteI didnt mind that Lonely Road of Faith thing but his time has passed...
ReplyDeleteMy English is not perfect sorry.
ReplyDeleteThis Helix show on Sci-Fi is what? Thing - The TV Show?
ReplyDeleteOkay, yeah. When that was paired with that "Desire" video, that was fucking tremendous.
ReplyDeleteIt'll have to be realistic. Bring back Lisa Marie and her 'son', who still suckles at her teat.
ReplyDelete[researches wrestling schools]
Varsity Club would be great nowadays, they would never do it though....
ReplyDeleteI don't even beat mini-Cabs that often.
ReplyDeleteSheamus, Cena, and Orton are all better workers than Christian and Bryan..... Batista and Big Show are better 2
ReplyDeleteWWE video guys make almost every tune better with their work...
ReplyDeleteBatista should get the nick name 'Best in the World!'
ReplyDeleteIt's actually not bad...for a SyFy show.
ReplyDeleteThe Outlaws have no fucking clue if they're heels or not.
ReplyDeleteMiddle Age Outlaws vs The Rhodes Bros in a Steel Cage? Wasn't expecting that, DX 2K14 reunion?
ReplyDeleteI thought the edict was that there were no heels or faces....
ReplyDeleteThey do, but this schtick is all they have! Take it away and they're nothing!
ReplyDeleteSyFy's greatest achievement was Sharknado.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they will do a curtain call after the match leading to HHH getting punished again.....
ReplyDeleteOh, no, your English is fine. I just find the expectation that celebrities "earn" their fame hilarious in a world with Kim Kardashian and the Miz.
ReplyDeleteCrowd looks dead as Mae Young....
ReplyDeleteThe most overhyped "punishment" of all time. Sure he got the KOTR taken away but by the fall he was IC champ (Back when that still meant something) and was working a good program with Marc Mero all the while heading to a probable Mania program against Mr.Perfect before Curt was lured down south.
ReplyDeleteIts that I don't get some expressions in English.
ReplyDeleteKim earned her fame the same way most stars do, only we got to see the audition...
ReplyDeleteNot going to argue with that. Return Of The Living Dead 4 : Rave To The Grave is their sleeper hit.
ReplyDeleteSorry but that fits the "overcoming the odds to become the legend he is today" narrative....
ReplyDelete8/10 for the joke.
ReplyDeleteIll take it.....
ReplyDeleteSo that means the MIz… *shudder*
ReplyDeleteYeah, thank god we missed his "training" sessions with Pat Patterson....
ReplyDeleteBut he was Justin Hawk Bradshaw, Cole...'John Hawk' was his indie name
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see actual fake war propaganda made for the Monday Night War.
ReplyDelete"Fight the good fight! Buy Raw Is War Bonds!"
As much as he was over the top, Id take Schiavone over Cole any day of the week...
ReplyDelete"You fool! History has no place in the product! Now, enjoy this commercial for the WWE Network..."
ReplyDeleteCM Punk - Should i take my ball and go home?
ReplyDeleteGood idea?
Not a good idea!
Welcome to HHH Saves the WWE, A Revisionist-Ass History Production
ReplyDeleteBray is reaching Jake territory in terms of hypnotically rewatchable promos.
ReplyDeleteI really wish Bischoff had just called their bluff and let DX in the building.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing....
ReplyDeleteI've said it before but just send Scott Norton and Meng out to meet them! Eric says don't worry about any criminal charges we'll take care of you and voila, angle squashed!
ReplyDeleteDreamcast Update:
ReplyDeleteIt came in earlier today, and I'm having a BLAST! with it now. Nothing like reliving the days of the Billy Joe Saga in New Orleans. Oh, and playing other games.
I do have WWF Royal Rumble coming in, but I'm NOT touching WWF Attitude, or the ECW knockoffs, with a 100 foot pole.
That wouldve actually been a smart move as WWF couldnt air them in the building, so folks wouldve all tuned in to Nitro...
ReplyDeleteMy God, those Acclaim ECW games were unplayable.
ReplyDeleteIve still got my Dreamcast, underrated system....
ReplyDeleteHave they even mentioned who won the Royal Rumble tonight?
ReplyDeleteNope.
ReplyDeleteI've seen collectible diecast figurines with better mobility than Rey.
ReplyDeleteBatista returning and winning the Royal Rumble to cement his spot in the main event at WrestleMania 30 was trully unforgettable!
ReplyDeleteThey are mentioning Rumble stuff now...
ReplyDeleteI dont even think the Jeep would survive those two....
ReplyDeleteBatista returning and winning the Royal Rumble to cement his spot in the main event at WrestleMania 30 was trully forgettable!
ReplyDeleteFIFY.
Sheamus' s return is overshadowing Bryan because Sheamus is a real SuperStar
ReplyDeleteThey've mentioned it plenty of times tonight in terms of other peoples performances but no mention of Batista winning it as far as i can remember.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair, they couldve misremembered who won...
ReplyDeleteEpic Ron Simmons promo from ECW:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q_loRhqrU4
ReplyDeleteScott Norton and Wrath both should've been world champions........ Bryan Adams (Crush) also should've gotten a shot at becoming at least intercontinental champ in WWF and U.S. champ in WCW
ReplyDeleteFarooq should've been WWF champion... he should've won the 98 rumble and defeated HBK with Tyson in his corner. FAROOQ 3:16
ReplyDelete
