THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....

[Simply Sickenin']

I actually don't want them to put DB in the title picture for Mania. As good as it would be to hear the dome explode in Yes! chants, I still don't want to see it until after Mania. I say that because they seems determined to have Batista win the title at Mania. WWE really thinks that Batista winning the title at Mania is going to be a huge moment and that the fans are going to love it. They're wrong, but that's not going to stop them from doing it anyway. And if Batista is going to win the title at Mania, I'd rather not see DB get crowbarred in the match just to lose.

I rather suffer through a bad Batista / Orton match at Mania and then a month or so after Mania, they start the real DB push. Have him win the title and hold it for a while. He can win the title at whatever PPV comes after Mania and hold it through Summer Slam.

ummmm........no

you would be fired if you were a writer

Bryan lost on damn near every PPV they had this year and now you want to start that cycle all over again? what sense does that make. The Yes Movement is at it's peek. He win WrestleMania, the fans start pouring in and that WWE Network shit triples it membership, the viewership would be higher than ever too.

If they take too long to play their hand, the people will walk away.

Guardians Of The Galaxy dosen't hit theaters untill August 1st. WWE can hold off putting the title on Batista till the summer. Getting a title run was most likely a condition to Batista coming back to the company.

Who the FUCK is making these decisions!? Where in the fucking UNIVERSE was ANYONE asking for Batista to come back?? He's WACK, He's Winded, he couldn't even go the full length of the RR PPV they ended it 15mins early because he was tired.. what a joke

 

[Upgrade Dave]

Seeing as Bryan has been wrestling twice a night on TV shows the last few weeks, I bet he faces Kane at WrestleMania opening the show with a stipulation that if he wins, he gets his chance in the title match that evening in a triple threat title match.

Bryan wins, ushering in the “Yes Era,“ as the entire Superdome chants Yes, Yes, Yes....

That could happen but I'd be shocked, SHOCKED, if HHH doesn't get himself a Mania payday with Bryan, especially when he was originally booked with Punk.
Kane and Bryan will have to be on Raw.

I dont' want them to push Bryan into it either. Just let Orton/Batista have their match but end the night with Taker/Brock or Bryan/HHH.
I wouldn't want to wait the summer but Bryan vs Batista would work during the spring ppvs.

ya'll both would've been fired as writers

Let me show yall how it SHOULD'VE BEEN DONE..Peep Game...

Bryan was suppose to keep losing these matches that was orchestrated by "management" in which HHH is the HNIC... After they cheated Bryan and made Orton the "face" of the company, at some point there was should've been a rift between Orton and HHH caused by Orton's "Diva Attitude" HHH would've started to miss the ring action and started hating the "suit and tie" game and turned on Orton, beat him at a PPV took the belts all the while Bryan kept getting cheated out of matches and getting screwed over until he FINALLY works his way to the main event at WrestleMania against HHH for the title. Beat HHH and elevated the WWE to new heights.

The End.

And the Award for best writer in a Drama goes to.....

You would be fired for not capitalizing on the Yes Movement now (at Mania).

DB is going to win it at Mania. Orton is just a transitional champion, and Hunter has not wrestled in forever.

WWE needs to strike now/at Mania while the yes movement is strong. It will happen at Mania and usher in a new era.

At this point, HOW is Daniel going to get in that main event match at WrestleMania? are they going to announce it tonight on Raw?

Like I said, they make him fight Kane at Mania (or HHH as Dave suggested) with a stipulation that if ge deafeats Kane, he joins the main event in a triple threat match. Orton vs Batista is already looking like a shit match and the fans will be livid. Vince isn't dumb. They need to add Bryan in the main event.

 

[Alphachino]

The network is pretty decent so far. Their library doesnt seem as large as announced but i may not be all the way in it.

 

[dtownsfinest]

Okay so the Shield and the Wyatts can't be over with.....this should be a rematch at Wrestlemania......if not, the WWE failed. That was by far the best match and not only that but got the biggest pop of any match at EC.

And Del Rio got his biggest pop in a LONG TIME....just being booked against Bootista. That was hilarious.

I thought EC was GREAT. From the Bad News Barrets segments to everything. Part of me thinks what made it so good was because of the crowd. When the crowd sets a tone like that it makes the whole show better.

From a booking standpoint, it mkes sense. WWE will somehow book Bryan to win the title at Wrestlemania. They are waiting, and they should. Imagine how huge it will be to hear 80,000 fans chanting "Yes, Yes, Yes!"

Yeah fans are upset like this shit is real. IMO, this is the type of booking you give the biggest guy on your roster. This is how Cena should've been booked and MAYBE he wouldn't be so LOVE/HATED. I will say though the whole Kane robbing him thing is getting old. Atleast come up with different ways to screw him over.

That would've been boring and played out and overdone though. And you'd put the title on HHH? The hell?

WWE is doing how I personally think it should be done. All they are doing is building Bryan's brand. That's it. He hasn't hit his "peak". That will happen if they had rushed the title on him. The more PPV's go by the more chants we here, the more pop Bryan gets......there's no reason to rush the title on him.

In regards to Batista and Orton.......i'd rather them just let Cena do it again and let him headline. I'll skip that match.

 

[dtownsfinest]

I do think WWE deserves some praise for the youth they had on EC last night. I didn't even realize that until you see guys like BIG E, The Shield, Wyatt's, Cesaro.........and not shockingly I was the most impressed with those guys than any of the other ones.

WWE can't have Batista and Orton headline Wrestlemania. IT will be a joke. The fans hijacked that Batista and Orton match and that was warm up. WWE are going to get their feelings hurt if they continue to have that match. The finish may still be the same with Batista winning but I have a feeling Bryan is getting in that match. I can't explain how though. Probably something thrown together.

I'm not a fan of the booking for the most part but they're making a (self inflicted) bad situation and making the most of it.
Bryan is on the verge of being their next big guy but they had this locked in for Batista and they really don't want to change it. Dave and ADR having a bad match didn't help his cause at all.

All the while, Cena's presence has been less and less.

I appreciate both national companies trying to make new main eventers. Some wont' make it but it's better to try them out and fail than stick with the same guys for years and years.

They must have far too many YES! men over there at WWE. They are completely delusional. Batista is not the Rock or even Brock for that matter. As a actor he's a C list actor and as a wrestler he's B list. I know he's had some decent roles in films but he's carried no film and they're treating him like a star. I don't know why they had intentions of Batista in this type of "role" but they are going to get a big reality check sooner rather than later.

I'm sure they paid him a pretty penny to come back too but I just don't get it. THey are also banking on that film he's in to be a hit but even that is questionable.

Yeah and personally I can see all those guys being main eventers at some point. And Cena's presence should be less and less. If they're not going to make him heel they need him to take a step back. The boo/cheers he gets as a face is stale and having him headline all the time is tarnishing their brand.

I think its silly their big roster of faces Batista and Cena are all getting boo'd/cheered like that but its their own doing.

And what I loved about the Wyatts/Shield match was you had two HEEL's......which btw the WWE HATES to do FACES vs. FACES or Heel's vs Heel's, but you get this and its probably the biggest pop of the night. They shouldn't be afraid to stray away from the face vs. heel time and time again.

They brought him back too fast. Rock and Brock became big household names after they left. He hadn't done that yet. "Guardians" was going to be his biggest role to date. If Rock had come back before he became a big movie star, fans would have liked it but it would have looked like "He failed at that so here he comes" and even as popular as he was, a lot of fans were turned off by his beating Punk, even though they had to know he was.

The Shields and Wyatts show what can be achieved when people and a feud is built up right. The groups were built up in a way where people didn't give a fuck what they were fighting about as long as they fought. Also HHH has talked about signing less indy guys, half of that match was comprised of guys who came up thru the indys.

I haven't seen Deltronz pop up in a minute. I'd like to know how he feels about the return of Chikara and the announcement that ROH and New Japan are collaborating for a couple of shows soon.

The unfortunate truth of the matter is that the writers wrote themselves into a box. I'd be willing to bet that a stipulation of Batista's return is that he wins the titles at Mania. They thought that his return would go over so well with the fans that we would stop chanting Yes! Once again, they were wrong. I don't want to see DB get put in the Mania match if he's not going to win and it seems like they already settled on Batista winning. Hell knowing the WWE writers, if they did put DB in the match as a triple threat, they would probably have him be the one who gets pinned, just so they can 'protect' Orton and not have him look weak.

Batista getting a clean 1,2,3 over DB at Mania .... I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT!!!!

Them white people like black history month got moved to January

 

[The Pope]

WWE is hot fucking garbage. How many times can they do this stupid garbage with Bryan.

They will continue to do this because Bryan has developed into such a fan favorite and with his Yes ! chant being heard damn near everywhere ( still can't believe WWE had Big Show using the Yes chant when he was feuding with Orton ) WWE knows the fans want Bryan to win so they aren't about to let the fans dictate who has the title but at some point he'll be champ again, possibly against Batista when they turn him heel because he fucking sucks as a face

He just sounds so stupid. Where are you going to get your talent from? They've made it very clear they don't want any TNA talent, even if they have WWE history so if you don't get them from the indies, then where?

BATISTA UPDATE,
by Mike Johnson @ 9:37 PM on 2/24/2014

On WWE Smackdown this Friday, Batista will “tell the WWE Universe what he really thinks of them.”
Oh shit. This dude is breaking down at this point. He really needs a long break.

JOHN CENA INJURED
by Mike Johnson @ 9:08 PM on 2/24/2014

During Raw, John Cena suffered a knee injury during an angle where he was attacked by The Wyatt Family. Rowan grabbed Cena's leg and held it in one position as the weight of his body went the other way as the others attacked him. From that point on Cena, who gutted through the rest of the segment and waved off WWE medical personnel, was unable to put weight on his leg. It appeared he may have dislocated or hyper-extended his knee.
Cena was taken out on a stretcher during the commercial break. We hope to have an update on Cena ASAP.

 

[EPDC]

If Cena has a legit injury, that could fuck up their plans for Cena/Wyatt and instead open the door for another Reigns vs Bray at Mania.

I feel bad for randy, next to his legacy run this is his second best run as champion ever. Hes not doing anything wrong but the fans already turned on him. Dudes great on and out the ring if you watch closely dude can put on a hell of a match and hes pretty good on the mic. Hes paid his dues unlike batista.

Does anyone else get the feeling wwe didnt give a shit about mania once they basically gave it away for pennies due to thd network? This card looks like absolute shit, and it seems as tho they are going to stick with bryan vs hhh. Hunters gotta get off that ego trip man, dude wants to be hbk so bad its sad. His last 2 mania matches were horrible and a blatant ripoff of hbk vs taker. Its ironic that hhh is forcing batista in the fans faces much like he was forced to us for a while. Hhh has stripes but if he really thinks hes in the rock, scsa, and taker status hes fucking looney, hell cena is a bigger star than he ever was.

And after watching raw, batista needs to be as far away from thr main event as possible dude is so out of shape its pathetic. Dude literally got in 3 moves at the ppv and botched almost every move on raw, he still was out of breath 5 minutes into randys promo.

JOHN CENA UPDATE
by Mike Johnson @ 9:51 AM on 2/25/2014

The John Cena stretcher job was a planned segment and was included in the Raw script last night, according to several sources I spoke to this morning. The stretcher used was actually put in place near the entrance ramp prior to the segment.
So, while Cena may have tweaked his knee (and initially, those backstage believed he did), the "injury" was scripted into Raw and was nowhere near as serious as was played up on TV.

I am told the company pushed a "medical update" on the Raw Backstage Pass to drive attention towards the WWE Network.
