The Official WWE Thread - Part 10

[Onyx]

Part 10.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Let's kickstart this epic thread off.

What better way to start GL Legacys 10th anniversary off than:

[RealGunner]

lmao wtf.


Anyways from last thread, Undertaker scheduled for 24th feb. Lesnar on at the same date as well.

Their feud will probably kick off then

[Tomwin Lannister]

Such a waste of lesnars time ffffffs


Would be more than good enough IF it wasn't at WM but Taker is exclusively WM now and Lesnar will lose. So the build up is > the match tbh

[Firenze]

Thought he would be a main eventer

[RealGunner]

I thought i liked him but after watching his matches, he is pretty generic. His best attribute is selling. His ring work is decent and he can be a solid mid-upper mid heel. Don't think he is a ME player.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Yeah he's really good at selling, the ultimate jobber basically.

F4Wonline.com confirms that WWE officials are discussing the idea of putting Daniel Bryan into the WWE World Heavyweight Title match with Batista and Daniel Bryan Orton? at WrestleMania XXX, making it a triple threat.

Bryan vs. Triple H in a singles match is also still on the table. As noted, WWE officials are holding off on making any big decisions, at least until Elimination Chamber is over.

[Onyx]

Regarding Roman Reigns' WWE future, it's said that officials have the idea that Reigns will be "the guy" one day. They feel Reigns may be their "heir apparent" to John Cena.

Last summer we noted that former WWE writer Alex Greenfield told The Fight Network in an interview that at one point, Vince McMahon wanted to put a blue dot over Christian's face because it bothered Vince. Greenfield said:

"Right before I started, there was a big show, I think it might have been in Toronto. Christian was just so completely over, and everybody thought he was going to get a push at, I think it was the World Heavyweight Championship at that point.

We were on the plane one time shortly after I started, and Vince was just like "God damn, I just don't like his face. His face really bothers me." I was like, "He's ugly, Vince?" "No, it's not that he's ugly, it's just, I don't know, it's ratty! You know what we should do? That Kennedy gimmick."

And we're all like, "What?" Some see-on of the Kennedy fortune I guess got arrested for rape in the 1990s at some point. When the woman who was accusing him was on the stand, all of the networks put a blue dot over her face. Vince was like, "God damn, you know what we should do?

We should put a blue dot over his face whenever he comes out." It was the flight to Sheffield, England, also the flight where the Spirit Squad idea was invented. This was a whole flight of bad ideas."

Greenfield's story was confirmed on last Monday night's RAW when Christian came out and JBL mentioned putting a blue dot over his face.

Tonight's WWE RAW takes place from the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Confirmed for tonight's show is the return of Mark Henry plus John Cena vs. Randy Orton in a non-title main event.

Tonight's show will be hosted by actress Betty White.
WWE is focusing on the following points for tonight's show:

* Will The Authority actually consider making Daniel Bryan the face of WWE?

* Who's the first check-in to Mark Henry's reopened Hall of Pain?

* What happens when the outspoken Betty White meets the always interesting WWE locker room?

* Will John Cena's payback be too much for Randy Orton to stand?

* Will we see a confrontation between Kane and Daniel Bryan?

[Tomwin Lannister]

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool


Tbf a couple years ago I wish they pixelated him all together

He was more orange than a teenage girl from essex

[M99]

* Will The Authority actually consider making Daniel Bryan the face of WWE?

No.

* Who's the first check-in to Mark Henry's reopened Hall of Pain?

Some jobber.

* What happens when the outspoken Betty White meets the always interesting WWE locker room?

Unfunny comedy.

* Will John Cena's payback be too much for Randy Orton to stand?

Don't think so.

* Will we see a confrontation between Kane and Daniel Bryan?

Yes.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Pretty much.

Also, Henry loses all credability in my eyes unless he at least has some sort of feud with Lesnar which won't happen

I can't get hyped up for his return considering he's out because he got his ass handed to him on two seperate occasions without putting up a proper fight

So I don't care how dominant he looks against heath slater.

[Firenze]

Regarding Roman Reigns' WWE future, it's said that officials have the idea that Reigns will be "the guy" one day. They feel Reigns may be their "heir apparent" to John Cena.

Why? The have someone who is more over than even Cena already and superior to everyone else on the roster. The fans should decide who 'the guy' is, not management.  

Raw sounds meh.

[zizzle]

lets just say that Roman Reigns will look much better on a cereal box than DB or Punk would. As i read somewhere "vince never hesitated to push a big Samoan with a sizzled bicep"

[Tomwin Lannister]

Yep, anybody who thinks that looks don't play a huge part in being in contention for the 'main man' mantle are just insane


Vince himself wants the top guys to look the part.


Maybe there's not a huge market for magazines titled 'Daniel Bryans explosive gym routine revealed' after all

[Onyx]

Yeh I doubt Bryan will ever be the 'face', not like that matters anyway. Unless of course his popularity increases and his character improves as a whole. He'll still be one of the top faces though. If he put on a bit of muscle, got his american dragon gimmick back then he'd look more serious.

This whole 'face' thing happens naturally anyway and it's possible for there to be multiple top faces. Austin was the face of the AE, but Rock was very close. Then from 02-05 you just had Triple H dominating as a heel and there was no standout top face. I'd say Batista was on par with Cena during his early years in the main event.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Seriously if Bryan bulked up a bit, trimmed his beard (Doesn't have to be that short, just not a mess like it is now) and got a haircut i'd have less trouble taking him seriously

So would Vince

[RealGunner]

Batista failed in his face run. Cena was the most popular guy and they tried to go with HHH's guy. Thankfully Vince intervened. Cena

But MT is right. It happens naturally. I am not sure about Reigns on the mic. Need to see his face run too because the face of the company will be 95% the face.

[Onyx]

It's too early saying Reigns could be face of the company anyway when he hasn't done anything as a single's competitor yet. He could easily flop like the countless big guys they tried pushing.

First thing he needs is a gimmick when he breaks free from the Shield. Every potential 'face of the company' needs the catchphrases, mic skills etc.

[Onyx]

PWInsider reports that WWE will begin using a new company logo once the Network launches later this month.

It is the same logo we've seen on Network material and the new WWE jet that Stephanie McMahon posted a photo of last week, which you can check out below:

[Onyx]

Someone in the comments saying this is how the TNA plane looks.

[Pedram]

If the management turn Reigns face, they'll ruin him. he looks much better as a heel brawler. he has that intimidating look, he just have to improve his mic skills.

[Onyx]

A fan who attended AJ Lee's New Orleans Comic Con Q&A this weekend noted that she was asked about her "pipebomb" promo from last year and said there was supposed to be a follow-up to it.

AJ said that while her character had been acting like a "douche" she still hoped that the other Divas would realize that she was trying to make things happen for their division and get them more TV time.

AJ revealed that some of the Divas took the promo personal. She said it was unfortunate that the follow-up to her "pipebomb" got dropped due to personal feelings that other Divas had.
