re: It's Mania Weekend Baws!!!

Oba needs to be treated like Brock beating the undertaker. They got what 12 years of life out of that win? Which means oba squashes Cody at summerslam with ease and basically destroys people for a long time but not being overshown

This is all basically going nowhere until HHH & the creative dept recreate themselves into more talented writers.

Oba has heat/is over but holy crap is that one big nowhere of a destination. Dude has NO charisma other than his cute lil bopping walk to the ring. No mic skills. He's another Sasquatch/El Gigante. Once he squashes Cody or Reigns then what?!

Only way to possibly really put Oba over is to drastically- I mean DRASTICALLY-whittle down the Bloodline, unite them with Reigns and use them as Horseman to constantly thwart any win over Reigns.

Reigns seems to be more face than heel at the moment. He's solid either way.

Not sure what to do with Cody. I mean i guess he's still over as a face but there's no juice there.

They really need to push LA Knight somehow someway. Dude STILL gets a great pop.

With Brock gone they're basically down to Orton as the last of the old legends. They have got to start cooking up something and quick.

They should bank up the armored truck to Stone Cold to kick off a story line with Knight or something.

Nothing else really has any sizzle.

Speaking of, they really need to cut down on the womens stuff but they won't because sex sells. But holy crap are those matches bad. Only Rhea and the Japanese girls hit marks consistently.

I was watching NXT tonight and realized the two week event they wrapped around Wrestlemania had better storylines than 90% of the two night WM card. The Sol-Zaria match was so much better than any of the no-DQ style matches in Vegas.

It looks like Blake/Mariah finished up tonight. Hendry and Sol dropped their matches too. The new "talent" they had a promo to hype looks like a repeat of the Blair/Stevie/Shotzi experiments. It looks like Kendall Gray is getting fast tracked by getting a run at the top.

Jacy was talked about in the past tense and no mention of the faction at all. It looks like Starks and Paxley are going to be mid-cycle callups. Based on past movements, you've got to figure Izzy isn't far from the RAW roster (if she's still with Bron) nor is Kelani from SD (Carmelo) either.

I think I disagree with almost every word of this

how the frick is this 80+ pages?

Have you never seen a wrestling thread?

Pages 1-2 is about the card for the night
2-4 is about the length of the video package to open
5-12 is the first match or two
13-65 are random pictures of female wrestlers half naked oiling themselves up
66-now are us fans pretending to be able to fix the issues with creative decisions

I and a lot of the wrestling world disagree with this. He does have mic skills. His promo to Monday before mania was well received and some said was the best of this mania season. He has great mic skills in NXT. Especially against Trick. He doesn't need to be the Rock on the mic. Hell, he already has better mic skills than Brock. If his charisma becomes a true issue, they will throw him with Paul or give him someone else as a mouthpiece.

Yeah, he is in the Goldberg / Brock role, neither of them were good on the mic, Brock grew into being funny when he needed to be later in his career. The knock knock joke is still one of my favorite promos

I think the problem they’re going to run into with him is him essentially squashing Brock means no one outside of Roman and Cody should be able to even have a competitive match with him. The crowd will turn on him if he’s just squashing everyone so you essentially are going to have to make him an attraction and keep him off most of the shows.

This is late... but this man is a treasure for the WWE and deserves all human monies.
