WWE TV, Rumours and Discussion

[RedmanWasHere]

Deacon Batista or nothing

What about as Leviathan?

 

[nobbyiscool]

OMG no to Batista

LOL

"They're not only welcome.... they're allowed."

I've had enough of part timers. If he came back full time, I'd be in favor - but these feuds between part timers suck. I'm kinda glad that Rock's "injured", I didn't want to see him and Lesnar.

 

[Hate]

SO CONFUSED. Someone explain:
Ranjin Singh's wikipedia redirects to The Great Khali, google search shows Ranjin Singh as The Great Khali, but Khali's real name is Dalip Singh Rana??

I could have sworn that Dalip was a writer for the WWE. So mind****ed right now

 

[Maxwell110]

Ranjin's is redirecting me to Khali's too, but when I search Google and Google Images I get Ranjin, not Khali.

Dalip is Khali, Ranjin is Khali's former manager and current RAW writer

Oh, and Ranjin's real name is David Kapoor

 

[Hate]

Ah ok! RAW on in 5 minutes.
Lots of bets around the web on Punk turning face, which I highly doubt.

 

[Quivorir]

Was not expecting Lesnar. Woo!

Edit: Dammit, I was talking...What match did he ask for?

 

[Hate]

Part 500 and ****ing 1 of HHH vs. Lesnar, do not want. Cage or no cage.

EDIT: Was NOT expecting Kofi to win the title then. Thought Cesaro was going to win easy. Doubt this title run will be long though.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Why do they think anyone wants to see Lesnar and HHH AGAIN?

 

[MarcMaverick]

Oh well. The crowd are back as usual, boring, dead. Must be those miscreant children again.

 

[Hate]

Lol at WWE showing a full shot of the crowd then desperately panning to those few who were doing the 'Fandango'

 

[Zach Package]

kingston just took cesaro's title...

 

[Dirty Bird]

I can deal with it. Kofi is billed from Ghana, so at least it wasn't an American who took the title back.

From Ghana, with Jamaican music and used to have an accent. Also now has an American accent.

Maybe Cesaro on to better things.

Kofi to job to Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaandaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagooooo in the next month!

 

[BEEG]

Happy with Kofi to win it if they turn him heel and just his entrance clothing etc

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Please be the Batista on his last run with the Spotlight. That Batista was great. Other Batista runs i'm not a fan.

Batista Bomb

 

[Zach Package]

I miss Batista's trampstamp

WTF Ziggler jobbed to Swagger. Way to make your World Champion look good.

And as a follow up to last weeks Raw - public opinion supports my contention that last weeks show was crap:

- this weeks Raw ratings in the US were down 10% on last week.
- the Fandango stuff was worse than crap. I'm glad it was a swerve and he stayed heel - but way to go completely outside of everything we've been taught about his character. Yeah, he's a narcissist, but they pulled this off poorly.

Swagger beating Ziggler was a joke. They would've been far better off setting up Swagger vs an 'injured' Del Rio to get to the triple thread - ADR gets an excuse, Swagger gets some heat back, Ziggler is kept strong. Now? ADR is the only one out of this feud with any heat - more WWE insistence on their babyfaces being strong, and who cares about the heels.

Cessaro losing is even more ridiculous. But after not appearing on WM and losing the belt 8 months later with no build up, no strong opponent, no opponent who needed it... this can't be considered a good thing.

And you know what? He doesn't deserve for it to be a good thing just at the moment. His anti-USA gimmick was a bit cliched and was tired before he began it - but the yodelling thing just sucks.

This mid-card booking is so ridiculous and lazy. They have 6 hours worth of television each week that they try and convince us are worth watching - Raw, Smackdown, Main Event. They have more time than ever to actually try and build compelling feuds, build characters, and to actually have matches for a reason...

Just last week...
- Mark Henry is told all he has to do for a title shot is beat the champion.
- Kofi Kingston beats Cessaro in an unannounced match to win a title shot.
- R-Truth beats Barrett in an unannounced match to probably win a title shot.
- Nikki Bella beats Kaitlyn in an unannounced match to probably win a title shot.
- Swagger beats Ziggler in a heel v heel match to win a title shot.

They don't deserve to be called a 'creative' department, because there's nothing creative about this.

On the rating last week they went against the NCAA Basketball National Title with over 20 million viewers. Now they rated lower then last week that is a major concern.

 

[pantskyle]

Ziggler losing was a good idea. His recent run hasn't been that good win/loss wise. So what we have is a very beatable champion who won the title against an injured wrestler.

So now Ziggler will need to find ways to win in Championship matches. I would expect a few successful defences helped by intervention from his sidekick.

 

[Wickzki]

Dolph Ziggler, please allow me to introduce you to Rey Mysterio and Jack Swagger.

This week they went head to head with MLB and a dang "terrorist" attack.
