If this is a generic heel, then generic is pretty good.

The example you mentioned, they were all unique in some ways and as MT says, they had a "larger than life" personality, something that Seth Rollins seriously lacks.

That's not true about Bret Hart, it is for the rest of them though.

Seth Rollins is much better on the mic than Reigns.
Also Bryan's promo on RAW + the fall out show were awesome, don't know if he was this good before he got injured or he worked at it, during his down time.

If Cena advertised as champ is true, then Bryan wins the rumble.

Cena vs Bryan WHC
Brock vs Reigns

What should happen. Brock is too much of a draw even without the title. Vince said on SCSA podcast, that the belt on brock is a commodity, brock is the attraction

Read last couple of pages.

Thought Rollins was actually good. Liked him in the segment. But i'll give it another year to see how he develops. Him becoming better is good for WWE since there is a serious lack of good heels. Let's see.

Also Cena has to win the 16th in order for him to step down. Either at RR or next year. It's probably better if it happens before WM31 since it will start the Reigns Era. Wwe wants to hail Cena as the greatest ever and they will make him get the 16th.

regarding Reigns. He is getting alright now. But why was he trying to talk like Rock Laughing

by Onyx Thu Jan 15, 2015 3:17 am

It's mainly women screaming for Reigns which makes it sound as if he's super over.

Also yeh, he needs to undoubtedly, unquestionably, one hundred percent stop being a poor mans corny version of the Jabroni-beating, la la la la low, pie-eating, trailblazing, eyebrow-raising, heart stopping, elbow dropping, you look like a duck, so keep you mouth shut, cause your mic skills absolutelllyyyyy *point mic to crowd* suck.

Lazy imo. Can't even hang up something that only weighs 10 tons. hmm

Stephanie McMahon and Booker T recently appeared on The Wrestling Compadres Slamcast and Stephanie talked about why WWE decided to do away with the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view and replace it with Fast Lane.

Stephanie said Elimination Chamber was dropped mostly due to the logistics of hanging the Chamber, which weighs more than 10 tons. Many arenas now feature large scoreboards above where the ring would be and they were facing issues with being able to hang the Chamber in some buildings.

Stephanie said the company will still deliver with Fast Lane.

We noted back in 2014 that WWE officials had talked about doing Rusev vs. John Cena at WrestleMania 31. The idea at the time was to have Rusev cost John Cena his WWE World Heavyweight Title match at the Royal Rumble.

WWE is currently advertising Cena and Randy Orton vs. Rusev and Seth Rollins for the February 27th live event from Madison Square Garden. This could be a sign that they are going ahead with plans for Cena vs. Rusev. So far there has been no interaction with Rusev and either Cena or Orton that would lead to that main event being booked. It’s also possible that Cena vs. Rusev is just the live event program during WrestleMania season.

Other matches advertised for the next MSG show include Kane vs. Daniel Bryan, Bray Wyatt vs. Roman Reigns, Cesaro vs. Dean Ambrose and an appearance by Chris Jericho.

I love elim chambers, what a pathetic reason

What's next? Let's do away with no DQ matches as working outside the ring requires effort planning out different spots.

by M99 Thu Jan 15, 2015 5:47 pm

Lmao poverty excuse. Lesnar won't work the PPV so they cannot have an Elimination Chamber without the title on the line.

by Casciavit Thu Jan 15, 2015 7:22 pm

What do people think of Booker T on commentary?

I think he has been decent. He actually talks about the match. Also heard him say "bah gawd" Proud

It was announced at The Critics Association Winter Press Tour event in Los Angeles today that WWE and the USA Network will be producing a new season of Tough Enough.

The show will feature a completely new format as well as elements that will make it live and interactive.

We noted last year that Tough Enough was scheduled to return to the WWE Network but plans were nixed due to budget cuts.

WWE’s Shop website has released a new throwback line of gear for John Cena. They tweeted this photo:

MetaFan4Ever, a verified WWE insider who has broken stories in the past, wrote on Reddit that Dolph Ziggler’s recent improv comedy booking, which was booked separate from WWE, was the main reason why he lost the WWE Intercontinental Title to Bad News Barrett on RAW a few weeks back.

MetaFan4Ever also reported that backstage morale is at an all-time high on the SmackDown side of things. Many Superstars are very happy about the move back to Thursday nights. There’s a feeling that the move will bring even more exposure and offer a better platform to sell the WWE Network.
