See this is what I'm talking about. Long tag match with a commercial break. Should have ended ages ago.

Re: The Official WWE Thread - Part 26
not sure on the hype on anderson & gallows tbh, haven't seen much obviously but what warrants the hype they've had? genuine question, not hating. commentary are pushing that they're ruthless, cool, but that isn't anything unique. i know they were over in Japan but honestly any foreigner gets treated like they're a main eventer over there.

It's not about them in particular.... it's that they were part of the biggest group in pro wrestling ( think NWO) and they were run by first Finn Balor and then AJ Styles.
It's about what it means more than them in particular, the assumption it will lead to a similar stable. If they just stay a tag team then i agree but i doubt that is the case.

I think they were just an edgy stable in NJPW, add in the smark hype and yeh.
WWE need to stop acting like they're stars when they haven't done anything yet. It just confuses the audience when you get a bunch of randomers getting a push.

NWO?
NJPW is nowhere near WCW. Most casual fans haven't even heard of NJPW, ROH etc.

Good that they're showing a backstory for Owens/Zayn instead of assuming everyone knows their history.

I mean in terms of the type of group they were.....
They took over the company in the same way and it was them against New Japan just like with NWO were against WCW.
There's a lot of similarities between the groups. Not everything is about what's bigger and who is heard of what and smarks.
They are not compared to NWO because they are better or bigger but because they share a lot of similar traits and similarities in how they act and the story told was very similar.

Yeh in that way I agree. But I'm just saying WWE need realise to the casual majority they're nobodies. Being stars in other companies doesn't really mean much imo.

Few smarks in the crowd trying to get some Ole Ole chants going, while the majority are more interested in Lana.

Surely making them seem like stars is a better way in the long haul than acting like they are nobodies?
It's hype 101, even if casuals don't get right now they will eventually as long as the stories and booking is good. I don't think anyone gets anything positively from trying to downplay them just because the casuals don't get it.
It's much better to try and hype them and hope they eventually get over with the crowd.

Well yeh it is good to present them strongly, but that's the same with everyone.
Being a star in another company doesn't entitle anyone to special treatment/main event push in the WWE.

I hope the WWE don't think all these NXT guys are going to get over purely based on their reputation/ringwork.

In fairness i don't think that's happening, if they were getting special treatment they'd be going straight into a tag team match with the New Day.

Crews really needs to work on a character. Coming out smiling isn't going to cut it. Same with Zayn.

Pretty bad RAW so far. Just a bunch of random guys with no character coming out and wrestling to crickets.
Barely any storylines, no urgency and overall bland.

Say it every week but Heel Jericho is *bleep* amazing.
Comes to the ring getting cheers because he's a legend and quickly makes them hate him
