Hyperbole, my dear boy.

Tbf, do wins/losses matter if the matches they come from are meaningless?

Hmm. I'm not sure how to answer that. lol

World Cups in wrestling are usually a long jerk off sessions to America.

Which would work well with Zeb's gimmick. Which is why I'd like it if the focal point was Zeb came up with the idea to show America's superiority. Or, to make it nice and heelish and go with his gimmick, he came up with the idea to single handedly regain the superiority that America has given up.

Hey. Mascaras would have gone all the way if he hadn't eliminated himself.

But the heel US team turns that on its head. Especially with fan's idea of having Zeb instigate it.

I did cnsider Neville but I wanted the "drafted from NXT" thing to put some real focus on Sami Zayn. Having 2 or 3 guys get drafted doesn't make Zayn special. Yes, I know Ryan would be coming in from NXT also, but he has been on the main roster before. Plus, it gives you representation from Wales. Alos, considered Regal in a managerial/coaching role but the "One Last Chance"/post series feud with Barrett seemed too good an opportunity to pass up.

I went for Jinder over Khali purely to create the skits of Slater trying to brown-nose Colter. Imagine Slater in full Uncle Sam regalia trying to prove how much of an American he is.

Good point about Rey/Cara.

I was imagining Zayn and Neville having some matches against each other as part of the series. A sort of "which NXT guy is going to make the bigger splash?" rivalry.

Anything that gets Heath Slater doing anything is fine by me. WOOOOOO!
