Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 07:46 PM

Have him face Chris Jericho one week and cut a promo about how he defeated Jericho at WrestleMania. The two have a match and Curtis shows something a bit different to what he usually does. "#NotFandango" will be trending. Curtis wins with a new finishing move.

The next week, Jericho and Styles fight because Styles wasn't there to help Jericho. Not Fandango vs. AJ Styles this week. Jericho comes out and costs Styles the match and Not Fandango picks up his second win. He'll be over like rover at this point.

Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 07:47 PM

Fandango is only 32 and has 14 years experience.

Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 07:48 PM

He now has a half-sleeve tattoo on one of his legs, so he will look very sexy if they put him in trunks.

Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 07:55 PM

If they don't want to give him a real singles push, because they are dumb -- Fandango and Tyler Breeze should form a super-sexy heel tag team that will ultimately turn face because of their mainstream popularity. They will be better Hardy Boyz.

Summer Rae takes issue with Fandango and Breeze -- two of her ex-boyfriends -- forming a tag team, so she becomes the manager of her own team -- The Miz & R-Truth. The Miz could feel threatened by there being two other sexy men on the WWE roster ("This is the one true money-maker in all of WWE") and R-Truth can be the dude that Summer Rae enjoys the BBC...she loves watching "Luther"!

Summer Rae has done movies with The Miz, R-Truth has teamed with Miz before and R-Truth was Fandango's old pro. So much history. Goldust wants to know what happened to his tag team with Truth, and he and The Miz beat-down Goldust but Fandango & Breeze make the save. Fandango becomes a loose ally with Goldust -- "Let's get weird!" forcing The Miz and R-Truth to call in back-up -- The Miz's former associate "Normal" Alex Riley -- a guy who hates weird people. "Why can't people just fit in?!? It makes me want to RAGE!"

Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 07:56 PM

Seriously though -- fuck-off Stardust and have Cody Rhodes come to Goldust's defense against The Awesome Truth and Summer Rae. Tie in those rivalries with Fandango & Tyler Breeze's issues with The Awesome Truth. That'd be a more than worthy mid-card tag team feud while The Dudleys and The Usos fight over the actual belts or something.

The internet as well as the way the business is at present has changed and the use of vignettes might be seen as a waste of resources. Fans think the content is lame as hell right now and the repackaging of failed main roster gimmicks would be much harder to pull off than it would on NXT (The transformation of Husky Harris to Bray Wyatt for example) would kill the character before it even got off the ground.

If you didn't find this Johnny Curtis entertaining, then you're a moron who should strongly consider suicide.

I found Mae Young entertaining, but I didn't want to see her in anything other than a rare comedy spot.

This segment made me miss all the performers involved. Curtis & Maxine could have been a great power couple act. Triple H vs. Johnny Curtis at WrestleMania one year, with Stephanie McMahon and Maxine in their respective corners could have been huge. The old power couple versus the new one. Both Triple H and Curtis were trained by Killer Kowalski too. A lot of parallels they could have exploited there.

Maxine was so fucking hot and Matt Striker was such a gem that could have been utilized a whole lot better. Get Alicia Fox out of the ring and use her as a bitchy manager for someone.

You're trying too hard

I can't remember exactly what he said to CSL, who is one of the most switched on posters here, but it was pretty embarrassing for him.

Let me put it for you this way, Gerty. CyNick is essentially using your "the IWC is stupid" heel gimmick but in a really shit way. He's like the TNA to your WWE basically.

Mr. Nerfect 02-25-2016 09:04 PM

It's not even that he gets it wrong a lot of the time. The IWC does have a lot of idiosyncrasies and falsely-held beliefs (generally speaking). But he distances himself so much from it with arguments from authority that are so easily torn apart but he can't admit it.

* Ratings being down doesn't matter because Vince McMahon says ratings don't matter.

* Everyone that has ever gotten a push and been talented has worked out because the WWE doesn't do anything wrong, it has to be the talent.

* 50/50 booking is what the WWE wants because it adds drama to the product. Or something.

* Ryback sucks because if he gets over and the company can't push him wrong, then it must be his fault. Or something.

* Cesaro sucks because 50/50 booking should get him over. It's his fault. Or something.

* Fandango sucks because if he gets over and the company can't fuck it up, then it must be his fault. Or something.

* NXT is secretly Vince's baby because it just is OK.

* The product is more popular than ever. Have you heard what the WWE says about the YouTube channel.

* WWE Network can be considered a roaring success as long as it makes it into the top ten list of digital on-demand programming providers.

* Stock going down is a good thing. Relax. They made the most revenue they ever had. How much of that was profit? That's not the point.

* The WWE needed to get rid of PPVs because they need to sell the Network they have no problems selling at all guys.

That sort of shit. Plus, while he pays lip service to the idea that the product could be better, he thinks it is "good" and that people that aren't interested in it are somehow alien. This is contrast to the evidence that general interest in the product is dropping -- whether it be low television ratings, merchandise sales petering off, a lot of Network cancellations, etc.

I’d be surprised if he does, although him destroying Ambrose so strongly in every angle so far would make you believe he’s going to. But the problem is as much as the crowd likes Ambrose, Lesnar is the one guy with the dynamic that cuts through the cartoon and tinges with reality. He’s the guy they are really behind.

With Johnson, he has tremendous input on what he’s going to do because he’s doing it for fun, in the sense he doesn’t need to do it and he doesn’t need the money, but he loves coming in and having fun. I’ve heard two different scenarios discussed for Michaels, neither of which involves him wrestling in a match. The original plan for Reigns vs. HHH would be to have a special referee who has a history with HHH, to stack the odds against Reigns. It’s noted that Dave Bautista was asked and turned down that role at least the first time he was asked a few weeks ago. We have not heard Bautista’s name mentioned in the last week in conjunction with the show, and he has been very critical of the company of late because of how they’ve treated Titus O’Neil, who is a close friend of his.

However, WWE officials said that the Raw vs. WWE tag was something typed incorrectly by Ticketmaster. Even if there is to be plans like that, they would be kept secret and the people in charge of advertising working with Ticketmaster would not know about it for fear it would get out.

Now they only have the 90 minute Raw on a two day delay and the 90 minute Raw with Japanese subtitles, Afterburn and Afterburn with Japanese subtitles. So they’ve lost the live Raw and complete Raws, Smackdown, all NXT, no more PPV on television.

Network itself is reported to be plagued with issues at the moment which isn't making things better for Japanese WWE fans. The biggest being that nothing is translated in Japanese making it hard for people to use it there.

Quote:

Recently on WOOOOO! Nation with Ric Flair, 'The Nature Boy' interviewed Bruce Prichard. During the podcast, Flair claimed that nothing could be done to save TNA.

"They've had their opportunity. It's not going to be there again, in my opinion." Flair continued, "Sting is gone. Kurt Angle is gone. AJ Styles is gone. I mean, I'm not by any means demeaning the talent that's there, but I don't even know who's there anymore."

Later in the show, Flair stated that Vince McMahon does not feel that WWE has any competition anymore and elaborated on the idea that being a true competitor to WWE is prohibitively expensive.

"I can remember when I was there, when [McMahon] told me, and I'm sure Bruce [Prichard] heard it long before I did, that he didn't have any competition in the [professional] wrestling business [and] that his only competition was Disney. That's what he said to me one time. And now, he doesn't feel like he had any competition. And the rumor went around that Rupert Murdoch was going to go against him and, you know what? They estimated, and this was 10 years ago, the estimated price would cost Rupert Murdoch back then to open up against Vince, and this was 10 years ago now [or] 15, take a guess. $450 million. That's contracts, equipment, I mean, if you look at what the company [has now], the company has 22 eighteen-wheelers. Are you kidding me? And the hotels on a Monday or a Sunday have 230 or 280 people in them. That's a lot of overhead, guys."

At least all the ones that the WWE themselves reference as "breaking the news" such as the Hall of Fame announcements or them signing NJPW wrestlers.

When TMZ would suddenly start to leak or report on a bunch of WWE news, it was rumored for a while the WWE paid TMZ for it to happen. The same with the ESPN-WWE deal being rumored to just be the WWE paying for air time.

The thing is I used to like CyNick. We could have made great Tag Team Champions if he didn't agree with the WWE's misuse of us. Apparently Vince's vision is always perfect, and he accepted the fate we were dealt. At WrestleMania, I will go over him because I've still got the passion coursing through my veins. I've got something to prove -- not to CyNick -- but to Vince McMahon and the entire WWE roster.

But he disappears and accepts that he wasn't used to his full potential by Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn. To doubt the hand reality has given him would make him feel powerless to take control of his own destiny. Then he comes back to my stomping ground -- my WWE -- and he tells my friends, my fellow Superstars, my fans that he's better than them? Good news, Nick. You have taken control of your destiny. Your destiny is to get your ass kicked at WrestleMania in front of a capacity crowd by me. Ratings and attendance have been down, but you are destined to spike business with your public humiliation, Nick. You're going to feel power at WrestleMania, Nicky -- but it's going to my power. And you're going to finally realize that you fulfilled your own prophecy of impotence, as I use you to springboard onto my ultimate goal -- winning the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and proving that the PPV business is not dead.

They have. Brock vs Dean is a much more interesting feud, though part of the reason for that is Bray isn't remotely a threat to Brock. Why is the viewer supposed to think Bray could take out Brock? Lesnar's destroyed Cena and Undertaker before and Bray can't even beat Ryback without help.

Their first 2 matches would be before the PPV as well.

I started a ramble about this a day or two ago, mostly in response to someone defending their shitty booking, and The Wyatts were my main example, but my tablet powered off.

Nutshell; Bray was interesting, but never really did anything of note, so the bloom fell off that rose with fans, Harper and Rowan are BOTH decent big men (yes, I see value in both, not just Brody), but they are just generic giant hobos.

When they split The Family, it was the time to expound on them as individuals, but Bray just continued to be jobber to the stars, Harper couldn't get a proper singles feud, just a big clusterfuck over whichever midcard belt was in the balance, and WWE expected Rowan to get over by osmosis, because "kids like buying masks, right?" And they didn't even take the path of least effort and make Harper and Rowan feud before abandoning it and lumping them back together. But, hey, that's THEIR fault they can't get over, right?

Then, there's also the time they tried to shoehorn the most over guy in the company at the time into the stable as a heel because reasons. And now there is Braun: another generic big man, who actually tips the scale away from Bray's favor, as he has gone from a real of psychologically imposing (he can manipulate these heavies because he is "better" than them/can beat them) to simply a glorified manager who is using them as meatshields.

There was so much potential for depths there, but now, it's just a fat jobber with three tall jobbers. Bray can promo all he wants, alluding that they are the LITERAL BIBLICAL four horsemen (but has to choose his words carefully, because WHOOOOOOO!!), but why would the fans want to give a flying fuck about a stable with no truly memorable substance behind them?

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon apparently wants the upcoming WrestleMania 32 event to be the start of "several years" of Roman Reigns in the company's top spot that was formerly held by John Cena.

According to the report, "the plan is for Reigns to go over and be the top babyface in the company for years to come."

The overall attitude within WWE is that it doesn't really make a difference if the fans boo Reigns because, as is evident with Cena, cheers and boos aren't damaging to the babyface of a franchise such as WWE, and diverse reactions from fans can often be seen as a good thing since they can launch stars to bigger levels of business. However, it's also well known that Reigns is not as big of a star as Cena, even though his merchandise numbers are good.

A new lineup was released Thursday for the show with a number of changes from the original lineup. The new main event has Roman Reigns & Dean Ambrose vs. WWE Champion HHH & Sheamus. Originally, HHH was going to be in Sheamus' corner for a singles match with Reigns.

Additionally, two other announced matches are U.S. Champion Kalisto vs. Alberto Del Rio, and Big Show vs. Bray Wyatt. Additionally, Bryan will be there to address the crowd for his Appreciation Night.

Me facing Noid would be like The Rock returning for a short run and being booked at Mania against Kane. If I were booked at Mania, it would be against a star; someone like Rob, Loose Cannon, Heyman, etc.

I'll just show up, cut a promo, leave, and watch everyone try to follow me and fail.

You do leave your mark my good man. I will give you that.

Exactly the same kind of mark as a dog shitting on your bed sheets would leave, for instance.

I drew more money with Kane Knight, Gertner and #1-wwf-fan than you ever could. My five-star matches with Heyman and Innovator are legendary.

Urgh

The only reason Cena has gotten away with it is due to the level of his outside popularity, something which Reigns will never reach.

Amazing how your lineups reflect and reference current storylines despite your lack of interest. It's like someone claiming they haven't watched Walking Dead "for years" and then coming up with a wedding storyline for Rick and Michone. But keep up the gimmick. The great thing is in this bizzaro land, as long as you have jock sniffers like Dale around, you will be the babyface.
