Cesaro Kidd, Natalya and Rose will now be referred to as the PPV Kickoff club till Vince loses interest.
ReplyDeleteIn on Brass Rings Club.
ReplyDeleteThe Brass Ring Club is the dumbest thing I have heard all day. By far.
ReplyDeleteSucks for Cesaro he's lumped in with all those jobbers.
ReplyDeleteThey're jobbers anyway as long as Vince calls the shots. At least poke fun of it.
ReplyDeleteIf Nattie is now a heel, why not have her turn on Paige to at least get a little heat instead of being a babyface in peril who loses clean to a forearm shot?
ReplyDeleteTerrible. And insulting to the people that were actually told to reach for the brass ring. Insulting for the sake of insulting. VERY WWE.
ReplyDeleteKick Rose, add Bryan and they have something.
ReplyDeleteWait... I thought Paige was the heel because she's a creep and occasionally does an erotic cover? Oh and she can't keep any friends and wears all black.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing waste of Bryan.
ReplyDeleteThats a good idea lets rewrite the script :Vince gets a text: What were you saying...ehhh its fine go..out there and do the job!
ReplyDeleteThe FACIEST OF FACEPALMS
ReplyDeleteMy opinion will quickly change on the team if they explode Sonic rings every time they get hit.
ReplyDeleteDaniel Bryan actually took the brass ring and look what happened to him. What chance did these guys have?
ReplyDeleteas apposed to casket matches?
ReplyDeleteYeah because Bryan is being utilized perfectly right now.
ReplyDeleteNot everyone can be a main event talent. Adam Rose and Tyson Kidd are career mid carders at best. They are literal B+ players. I do feel bad for Cesaro. He really deserves better.
ReplyDeleteHe main evented mania and is one of the top 3 stars in the company??
ReplyDeleteThat's "Gold" rings.
ReplyDeleteReally, they should all dress as plumbers.
Right. Let's toss him into a team with Nattie and Tyson Kidd. That's better.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if everyone had already been eliminated and Roman came out at 30 he would've gotten a massive baby face pop #smarkbookingfantasies
ReplyDeleteHe's on track to curtain jerk Wrestlemania and fall behind at least Reigns & Cena.
ReplyDeleteYeah, because fuck elevating anyone.
ReplyDeleteehh..cesaro isn't connecting with the fans..maybe it's his accident..he doesn't want it enough...
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm assuming Nattie's a heel because Cesaro/Kidd/Rose are heels. But Nattie accompanied Tyson to the pre-show at the PPV but wrestled as a face (there's no way the Bellas are faces).
ReplyDeletePaige, I guess, is now the wacky, quirky, funny girl on Total Divas: she bonded with Nattie by giving her a marijuana-laced brownie, causing Nattie to pretend to get in a car accident to avoid a convenient WWE-drug test, only for Paige to tell her there was no marijuana in the brownies.
Then there is this incredible clip of her playing with Big E's pecs:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGKt2P6lqHI
Please, he's third match at least. Pessimist.
ReplyDeleteBetter put him in a team called The Brass Ring Club with a bunch of lsoers. That will help him out.
ReplyDeleteIron Shiek wins the post-Rumble Twitter snarkery:
ReplyDeletehttps://twitter.com/the_ironsheik/status/559532499970191361
Teaming with Nattie and Tyson Kidd is punishment for shoplifting in some countries.
ReplyDeleteor you know..they could just put over the guy getting Hulkimania pops like....they did Hulk during Hulkimania...and make money.
ReplyDeleteYou don't always need main event talent to make money. Giving the fans close to what they want makes money.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of shoplifting, did Emma drop off the face of the planet or something?
ReplyDeleteMaybe if they booked Flair to win the Rumble instead. #whitethunderbookingfantasies
ReplyDeleteThat or instead of laying around like a shmuck, handcuff him while Show/Kane are dumping the people fans like. Then you get the breaking the cuffs visual and a hotter finish
ReplyDeleteReigns/Lesnar
ReplyDeleteSting/HHH
Orton/Rollins
Cena/Rusev
Wyatt/Take
Divas
He might beat the Battle Royal, but there's only going to be like eight matches. If the Battle Royal is pre-show, he may literally open.
You don't just force an over guy to hang out with losers. That doesn't elevate the losers. It wastes your over talent.
ReplyDeleteThat's a finish that gets suggested every year, where the ring gets cleared right as #30 comes out, resulting in an automatic win for the last guy.
ReplyDeleteIt's right up there with, "Now, hear me out guys. What if Zach Gowen were in the Rumble...by his very nature, both feet CAN'T hit the floor!"
He's a filthy european commie
ReplyDeleteNO WAY! Throw one of your most over guys in Bryan with them and they will be INSTANT STARS!
ReplyDeletePaige also meowed when she gave the news to Nattie during an awkward silence.
ReplyDeleteThe twenty something marketing asshole running Iron Sheik's Twitter wins the post-Rumble Twitter snarkery
ReplyDeleteFTFY
He was too busy (reportedly) calling an audible on eliminating Bryan early in the Rumble. And, eh, it's the Divas; they're interchangeable, just like Devon and R-Truth.
ReplyDeleteYou're reaching here.
ReplyDeleteHow do you think people get elevated? Whether it's a match, a tag team or a stabe, you use over people to get other people over. Are you new?
ReplyDeleteYou are right Vince's actual response would have been..which one is she...? the Black haired one that talks funny or the one in the jean shorts skipping around?
ReplyDeleteIt DOES kind of play as an Iron Sheik parody account. But I still love it.
ReplyDeleteWhy not just have them be foreigners (is Rose the one from South Africa?)? Heck, put 'em with Rusev.
ReplyDeleteYou don't stick arguably your most over guy with Tyson Kidd to get him over. That is really dumb. They are a curtain jerking group.
ReplyDeleteWho went from Jobber to being elevated by hanging out with someone super voer? Who has that ever worked with?
It's pretty funny that this is such a bad idea, Danimal, of all people, is the voice of reason.
ReplyDeleteDid you hear that they are going to put retired jobbers with Seth Rollins?!?!? THAT'S GOING TO RUIN HIM!
ReplyDeleteI do like the notion of an international conglomerate. They can be The Coalition of the Thrilling!
ReplyDeleteThe "everyone is eliminated when No. 30 shows up" spot was mostly suggested a lot for Jericho in 2012, as I recall.
ReplyDeleteI'd only do it if I had a monster draw of a WWE title match that was going on last so I wasn't ending the PPV that way, but it would have been a great way for Jericho's character at that time to win it.
Easy on the VinceJordan-ims, buddy
ReplyDeleteMight as well name that team the Redshirts. Why? Reasons.
ReplyDeleteIt's a terrible idea. Really bad.
ReplyDeleteDamn, I might be one of the six people that actually things the 'Brass Ring Club' is funny as Hell. That Bullet Club knockoff shirt is the most awesome thing in the history of awesome.
ReplyDeleteYeah because a stable of 3 amazing workers being fucked over by the system is SUCH A BAD IDEA.
ReplyDeleteThe Masters of the Universe FTW
ReplyDeleteIf they were ever going to do that spot, that was the year to do it. Since Jericho was two or three weeks into his "giving the crowd the silent treatment" angle. That would have been a glorious way to keep it going.
ReplyDeleteBut nope. Sheamus.
Redshirts is so good, I'm actually shocked they haven't done that with their jobbers yet.
ReplyDeleteI want that shirt. I noticed it Sunday night and saw the "S" on the top line so I knew it wasn't a Bullet Club shirt (or the "Balor Club" knockoff), but I loved it nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteAn overblown storm to assist an entirely overblown wrestler, lol, fitting.
ReplyDeleteWrestling fans: Having zero imagination since forever.
ReplyDeleteThey could be called Union 2: Reunion
ReplyDeleteWell, Vince doesn't have predictable Rumble winners. That year.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be funnier if I didn't think these were close to Vince's actual reactions.
ReplyDeletehttp://gfycat.com/MistyHappygoluckyEagle
clearly you missed the day we came up with Wyatt Ambrose matches
ReplyDeleteThey're currently heels, so what storyline would get them to be aligned with Bryan? Did Bryan and Cesaro wrestle in ROH, so they have some sort of connection?
ReplyDeleteIt would kind of work because the faction could have a world title guy, tag titles, and a lower card title.
I mean, it ultimately didn't really matter because they were both in title matches and neither title match was one of the top two draws on the card. But if they really changed to Sheamus winning because the interwebs was hip to Jericho's reported win...c'mon, son.
ReplyDeleteHHH.
ReplyDeleteme too, have lana be mastermind/manager of them all and it could be something that might work.
ReplyDeleteHeck, throw sheamus in too
Really, they should've called the Spirit Squad the Redshirts. Would've been a perfect name for them.
ReplyDeleteSadly that may still have gotten a better reaction than Roman.
ReplyDeleteTurn them baby after they help out Bryan against the Authority.
ReplyDelete"We have a talented tag team that can't talk!"
ReplyDelete"Who should we give them as a leader to get everybody over and cover up there mic weaknesses!?"
"Daniel Bryan!"
"Perfect!"
BTW, I'm pretty sure Cesaro & Kidd named themselves Brass Rings Club.
ReplyDeleteI think there was a thing from One Hour Tees where they made the shirts for them.
OneHourTees @OneHourTees · Jan 25
ReplyDeleteSomeone tweet me a pic of cesaro is the brass ring club shirts we made.....
It's not the worst idea in the world, it's just a serious reach.
ReplyDeleteLet this one go, bud.
HHH got over through the use of backstage politics and having really important friends.
ReplyDeleteWait, are you saying Bryan can't talk? My sarcasm meter is broken this morning.
ReplyDelete1. The group being assembled to protest there spot on the card angle never works (New Blood, J.o.b. squad, L.W.O, etc)
ReplyDelete2. That name is god awful. And nothing more than a rib on those guys
I'd be down for this, if they actually were going to seriously get behind them. Having Rose shed the failed party boy gimmick for a cocky douche role would be a good move. Cesaro and Kidd are going to fucking rock in the tag ranks by sheer force of willpower, and Natalya in business professional attire is hot as Hell. #BiffApproves
ReplyDeleteWell, Colt's meltdown because we won't fawn over his terrible idea is all the entertainment I need for the day. Great stuff.
ReplyDeletePutting three great workers together because they're great workers is probably the least imaginative thing one could book.
ReplyDeletelolololol ok.
ReplyDeleteUnless they came up with it themselves because no one really gives a shit what they're doing. Which seems fairly likely to me.
ReplyDeleteI agree it's unlikely to elevate them but if it's something tongue-in-cheek they're just doing on their own...I mean, it's not like they have a lofty spot to lose.
GUYS WHO HAVE BEEN SCREWED BY THE SYSTEM!!!
ReplyDelete(featuring Tyson Kidd)
http://www.findadeath.com/
ReplyDeleteThere's a rabbit hole that will keep you busy for days
Not well enough to get three other people over with him. He's an intimate, sincere promo. That doesn't extend to putting others over.
ReplyDeleteJericho confirmed it was always Sheamus winning. In all honesty, he was the only one really talking about the Rumble, not to mention being booked strong as hell leading up to it.
ReplyDeleteIt was just on Smackdown though.
The original NXT invasion got over well enough before the writing monkeys killed it. I don't have high hopes that Creative will use these three properly, because they don't really use anyone properly anymore. But in a perfect world, this deal could work really well. Three forgotten guys who are gonna shove it up Vince McMahon's ass and be fucking fly? You can get mileage out of that. The name is a nice 'fuck you' to Vince as well, so it's win-win.
ReplyDeleteYou know if TNA had any aptitude at all and hadn't killed any and all chances of breaking out...a pissed of Cesaro not re signing and jumping to TNA would have huge possibility.
ReplyDeleteWho could possibly get a Brass Ring storyline more over than Bryan?
ReplyDeleteYeah...Adam Rose shouldn't be in that faction.
ReplyDeleteTrue. In remember the reports that it was always Sheamus, and the booking in retrospect makes it seem obvious in a way I never noticed.
ReplyDeleteBut still, I really can't believe Sheamus is a former Royal Rumble winner. That's the closest I think they've ever come to having a legit midcarder win it. Such a confounding win.
It's better than nothing. They're trying to give themselves a team identity (two guys who aren't getting their fair shake), they've been working on tag team moves. It might get them to the tag titles. The Rosebuds still hanging around and dancing to Cesaro's siren is so weird and stupid, there might be a breaking point where it just starts making me laugh.
ReplyDeleteAdd Daniel Bryan AND Dean Ambrose. The fans like those guys, so it will get Tyson Kidd over.
ReplyDeleteOr that company.
ReplyDeleteSomebody who hasn't already won the title in the main event of Wrestlemania?
ReplyDeleteWe should be getting Cesaro/DBry Iron Man matches for the belt.
ReplyDeleteTriple H didn't get really over until the Stephanie angle.
ReplyDelete0:35. GIF it for me, thanks.
ReplyDeleteEdgy!
ReplyDeleteIt's cult, not colt. And making fun of you for not understanding how pro wrestling works isn't a meltdown.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind it, if it gives him a character change. At this point, the dude isn't as fucking overexposed as most everyone else on the mid-low card train, so giving him a makeover and a more serious slant may be fresh and interesting.
ReplyDeleteOr that country!
ReplyDeleteUSA! USA!
Bryan Ambrose Cesaro would be something
ReplyDeleteIf you want to totally overshadow Tyson Kidd, yeah. Do that.
ReplyDeleteNow we're talking.
ReplyDeleteJust kinda depressing, really.
ReplyDeleteI literally thought this was about Colt Cabana. Immediately went to Twitter expecting a tirade
ReplyDeleteIs Dolph angling for a DB match at Mania? I thought I read something to that effect...
ReplyDelete#HOSSAPPROVED
ReplyDeleteYou didn't really make fun of me. We were just discussing your terrible idea. When your one example of ideas like yours working is HHH. You don't get how it works.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the fact that you had to do 4 followup posts whining about how people didn't like your idea is pretty meltdowny.
Who had to fight for it and then had it snatched away. Do you really need this spelled out?
ReplyDeleteAll 3 held down.. all three great works. All three have strengths where others have weaknesses
ReplyDeleteHeh...nicely done, ya limey bastard.
ReplyDeleteyes he tweeted it.
ReplyDeleteThey tweeted each other about it. So Bryan will work Sheamus and Ziggler will work the Battle Royal
ReplyDeleteBREAKING: DX wasn't over.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to do a "couple of down on their luck guys band together with Bryan to battle the Authority" storyline, at least do it with a couple of guys the crowd already gives a shit about and has a chance. Some combination of Ziggler, Ryback, Ambrose, etc. Those guys are over already and also wildly underused, the crowd would already be invested in those guys battling the Authority and they're good workers too (even Ryback has really improved).
ReplyDeleteAs much as I like Kidd and Cesaro and would love to see them elevated- at the very least, their program with the Usos needs to start two weeks ago- I think they're too far apart on the spectrum for the reaction to be anything other than "huh?" Push them for a bit, have them be fucked over by the Authority and then maybe there's something there. Otherwise you're talking about angry heel Daniel Bryan leading some stupid, warmed-over revolt or a total rehash of Mick Foley leading the Union, and ain't nobody got time for any of that.
I hope they're prepared for some titanic Daniel Bryan chants during the Mania main event.
ReplyDeleteNow give them Paul Heyman as a manager.
ReplyDeleteJudging from Royal Rumble: Not prepared and don't care.
ReplyDeleteTHE ROMAN EMPIRE BEGINS, MAGGLE!!!!
They could be called Speed Force
ReplyDeleteDaniel Bryan vs. Dolph Ziggler, if it had any sort of meaning and time, would own wholesale ass at discount prices.
ReplyDeleteYeah he already won.
ReplyDeleteLet's repeat the story except this time with more jobbers!
Brilliant!
That finish was around for years people were cumming themselves that a story actually fit it.
ReplyDeleteHeyman did a great job as usual last night. It's not going to be enough to save what happens, but whatever.
ReplyDeleteI think they do care. Roman winning the Rumble and causing crazy criticism online and through the twittersphere definitely rankles Vince, believe that (hehe, see what I did there?).
ReplyDeleteThe problem is it would work better as a loose faction that does their own things and come together when needed...Vince is incapable of that at this point as you have seen from the handling of the wyatts and Shield
ReplyDeleteAdam fucking Rose overshadows Kidd.
ReplyDeleteCome on guys..if you can't see Tyson Kidd and Bryan being perfect for each other in a faction why do you even watch ?
ReplyDeleteI don't know how to do that, plus it's more of a Vinson thing: maybe he can do it if he checks the Daily Thread (I'd actually be surprised if he didn't have the GIF already).
ReplyDeleteMagic Beans.
ReplyDeleteThey had a TV best of three a few years back that is one of my favourite series of matches in the modern era.
ReplyDeleteuh...I...um...
ReplyDeleteThis did not present a lovely image in my mind.
but it won't.
ReplyDelete6 minutes so as not to steal the show.
How else do you think guys get over? Are you new here? You don't understand how wrestling works.
ReplyDeleteThe Brass Ring Club. That's hilarious. Anyone who doesn't say Vince isn't deciding everything on whether or not it gives him a giggle and/or a chubby is kidding themselves.
ReplyDeleteWow that Brass Ring Club shirt is badass. Got all 3 of them represented on there (not Nattie though)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought that was odd as hell in their Rumble entrance, largely because I thought I'd read it was going to be a six-man elimination match. The Rosebuds dancing around to industrial metal and blaring sirens was....something. I agree though, I can see that becoming a total non sequitir that I get a kick out of because it makes no goddamn sense.
ReplyDeleteYeah because HHH was never elevated by being in a stable. Said the internet person who started watching wrestling in 2008.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I concur with that necessarily. But I think Tyson Kidd has way more potential than the WWE has let him show. But a Kidd/Bryan pairing right now would be a major mismatch.
ReplyDeleteyou get guys over by having the win a bunch of matches then lose a bunch of matches then pull them off tv then bring them back with a new Tshirt...duh
ReplyDeletePaige <3
ReplyDeleteI posted my thoughts in the RAW thread, but I'm actually convinced they're going to flip him at Mania because of all of this. He's still going to be the guy, he's just going to shoulder the load as a heel.
ReplyDeleteAnd then they can cash in on Bryan by running a Bryan/Reigns feud, not giving Bryan the belt and building Roman's profile to the point where he can legitimately turn babyface down the line.
I hope they're prepared for something else going on last.
ReplyDeleteOh so the story was finished? Dude gets punked by the Authority, injured and stripped of the title and just moves on? Cool.
ReplyDeleteBrass Ring Club will get over ... then job to Big Show and Kane.
ReplyDelete1st part no, 2nd part yes
ReplyDeleteI guess it's a good thing, but it's so anti-climactic to hear storm of the decade and then...nothing.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you do with Rollins and the briefcase, though? Bryan wins the belt eventually and gets cashed in on?
ReplyDeleteThis would be a glorious thing if Seth Rollins is still a chickenshit heel next year.
ReplyDeleteIf you're going to pair Tyson Kidd with Daniel Bryan, both guys need adjustments to their alignment. You have to have Tyson Kidd start getting more and more aggressive, and Bryan has to stop being so likable. If Kidd falls into the Bryan style of characterization, it's going to be Cena/Ryder 2.0 with Natalya instead of Eve.
ReplyDeleteTwo great workers who are pissed off at being marginalized? That could work. Bryan/Cesaro/Kidd would kick ass workrate wise, but I don't think you just throw them all together and make magic happen creatively.
Not to be outdone, Seth Rollins, Goldust and Darren Young have formed their own group called The Cock Ring Club.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the Brass Ring Club. I laughed when they had their entrance on Sunday.
ReplyDeleteThrowing out insulting assumptions about people really doesn't help your argument. It makes you look combative.
ReplyDeleteHHH got over because he had very powerful political ties in the back and those political ties are what got him to the very top. Hanging out with Shawn was great, I'm not denying that, but his sustained success and his overness was because of his backstage political ties that were dedicated to getting him over. Get those kinds of connections for Tyson Kidd and that will do more than being in a stable with Bryan could ever do.
HHH wasn't a jobber. He was the King Of The Ring.
ReplyDeleteThe anti-"smark" response to what happened at the Royal Rumble is the equivalent of whatever Fox News is taking out of context that day.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely the best way to make Roman a babyface. Reset his character with a heel turn and put him in singles matches that will likely be great.
ReplyDeleteTo those that say "Derr, you're turning him heel just so he'll get cheered?" as I've seen recently....yes, motherfuckers. The idea is to eventually make him the badass babyface they want him to be, and a heel turn right now is the most obvious way to do it.
I think you flip Rollins.
ReplyDeleteSo if you run 2-3 Bryan/Reigns matches and Bryan can't overcome, along the way, you have Rollins getting more and more furious that he was suppose to be the chosen one and The Authority sidestepped him and anointed Reigns and then after the last Bryan battle, Rollins cashes turning face, causes a shitstorm, and you solve it that way.
Then Reigns probably wins it back a PPV or two later.
Rollins gets screwed over on his cash-in on the way to his babyface turn, as long as we're fantasy booking.
ReplyDeleteOr MSNBC. Fair and balanced and all that jazz.
ReplyDeleteRight, the fans cheered for him because of who he was friends with backstage, not what he was doing on screen.
ReplyDeleteDon't you think Zack Ryder sees Brass Ring Club and just goes...oh come the fuck on...lil help here guys?
ReplyDeleteHe was midcard for life, as is Kidd right now.
ReplyDeletePlease. There is really no comparison between the two.
ReplyDeleteI guess a White South African would make them a Commission...perhaps one dedicated to spreading TRUTH.
ReplyDeleteOh God...
Nice. I like it!
ReplyDeleteI think Roman will make a killer heel.
Kidd is opener to lower midcard. With midcard as his ceiling.
ReplyDeleteThere's plenty of comparison between the two. They both suck huge quantities of festering, sweaty ass.
ReplyDeleteRemember back in 1997 when Steve Austin helped the Headbangers get over?
ReplyDeleteKidd is not mid-card. He's opening match, or developmental territory. Are we all talking about the same guy?
ReplyDeleteI've made Sheamus a top heel in TEW but I periodically forget he exists when putting shows together. The discussion below has inspired me to pair him with Rusev.
ReplyDeleteWinner!
ReplyDelete"WWE Hires Former NWA Champion to teach WWE superstars WWE style."
ReplyDelete.....wait, huh?
And "White Russian" wins the tag titles!
ReplyDeleteOh my god, I love that name so much I want it to be reality.
ReplyDeleteChris Benoit would have gotten a better reaction than Roman.
ReplyDeleteFirst Raw I haven't watched in a long time, probably since College and I graduated in 2010. I guess it really wasn't a Raw so I'm not going to count it.
ReplyDeleteHey now, let's leave Jim Neidhart out of this!
ReplyDeleteRight, like fans cheering means anything. Did you just start watching?
ReplyDeleteKidd needs to go on a Goldberg-type run to reach the midcard.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch either because I loathe cable news, but they are operating from two different playbooks.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this gets away from my point, which is that people have every right to be pissed at WWE. Making up shit about the why is grinding my gears.
A few weeks before he and Shawn teamed, HHH had a cage match with mankind at Summerslam. He was King Of The Ring two months earlier. He was IC champ a few months before when that meant something.
ReplyDeletePlease let this happen in real life.
ReplyDeleteThis seems a polarizing subject, so here's my final take for the time being: if the Brass Ring Club becomes a vehicle to make chicken salad out of chicken shit, then I'm all for it. Cesaro and Kidd in particular are too talented not to make it as a tag team, and I'll reserve judgment on Adam Rose to see if they give him a character makeover. But if this deal becomes the new 3MB, which is what I secretly fear, then I'm going to punch someone in the taint.
ReplyDeleteYes, because everyone remembers how the JOB Squad rivaled the original Legion of Doom...
ReplyDeleteIt will most certainly be 3MB. How does it not with Adam Rose in the group?
ReplyDeleteDidn't get a chance to watch the Rumble yet. When Bubba did the "get the tables" spot did he actually do the schtick and say R-Truth, get the tables?
ReplyDeleteOr this planet!
ReplyDeleteEARTH! EARTH! EARTH!
None of them get over unless you add Bryan. That's how you get guys over. Force them into stables with really over guys. Did you just start watching?
ReplyDeleteEveryone accepts Kidd is talented and underused, but with where he is in his career and on the card right now, sticking him with Bryan would bring Bryan down not raise Kidd up. Just like Cesaro looks like a loser right now.
ReplyDeleteOoh, here's another question added to this:
ReplyDeleteHow do you keep occupied Cena during Roman's reign?
"Ahmed Johnson to come out of retirement to tag team with Dolph Ziggler.
ReplyDeleteZigga-Zig AH."
What about Rey in '06? He hadn't really touched the main event at that point. Sheamus was at least a multi-time WWE champion already, as much as he shouldn't have been.
ReplyDeleteOh man, that's slightly interchangeably racist. Typical Vince.
ReplyDeletePin me and pay me baby.
ReplyDeletePerhaps the multi-time champ already grabbed the brass ring, defeating the purpose of the group?
ReplyDelete
