It is kind of impressive that the Villain and Party Marty are equally as terrible in completely different ways.

Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
That's what really bothers me about him. Summerslam was the worst with regards to that.

You did better than I did. I looked around for 10ish minutes and couldn't figure out what the fuck I paid for.

I can't figure out how to actually find anything on Honor Club. WWN I can sometimes find what I want and other times it feels like it's a different site. Like why don't they on page 1 just have all the Mania weekend shows?

Wrestlemania 34
Would a screwjob have been better? No, but a pinfall would have. The time to do the countout or DQ is on TV with someone like Alexa or Carmela. My point was that they still had more fuel left in that tank before they emptied it. Asuka has her in the Asuka Lock. Charlotte could have easily turned that into a sudden pin and gotten her that way.

It's an ongoing debate currently. Do I hate Honor Club's site more or WWNLive more. I think Honor Club is winning. But I should fucking have to go to Shimmer's site to figure out how to find it on WWNLive.

Same here. I'll never attend Mania now that they're this long. The thought fills me with dread more than excitement. I think I had so much fun at Chikara because it was like 2 hours and 15 minutes. I have really fond memories of that show because they didn't overstay their welcome.

Ring of Honor Wrestling
To be fair, when I attended Supercard of Honor II, I felt like I had gotten the bargain of my life paying $25 for five hours of wrestling. Of course, that was before the era where every supershow was excessively long. I think some of it is age too. I'm 37 years old and after 3 hours my back fucking hurts, I'm tired of that smelly guy next to me and I've probably had to piss for an hour but don't know where the fucking bathroom is.

You know who's awesome? Caprice Coleman. Love that guy.

Okay. Got an idea. You have Brock walk out tonight. Strip him of the title and then just hand it to Reigns with no fanfare. Then you have him just doing promos about how much he deserves the belt and how hard he worked for it. Successful heel turn.

We could have a series of title matches of heels trying to use chocolate cake in various ways to soothe him and get the victory.

I wanted to add with Braun. I think people over think it. That's what killed Goldberg. Just give him the belt and have him murder people until people start getting tired of it. If that makes you some extra money and burns out in six months, hey you made some extra money.
-
Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
If he gets you a year and you burn him out is it that big a deal? You can cross that bridge later. I think people just want to see him cause mayhem. Maybe experiment with injury angles when it starts to lose steam.

Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
Look, Cody is doing his crazy ass schtick and he's a B-Miz with dashes of Riddler, which is good. But you really cannot say he was busting his ass in WWE, or that he was fucked like Roman for the last years or so. He still had his cute ass lil' indie list of people who he could go over clean (making ZSJ tap lol) while having mediocre shit. He's more of a guy that was lost in the turmoil than someone who had the spotlight on him during every single crazy ass brooking decision. He's a case of how they pigeon hole guys though. He is a fuck up because he could be doing this stuff for them and maybe drawing money but they typecast him. They need to let guys like him experiment in the lower card instead of just the endless script they use.

I would have had Braun pin him with that first Powerslam back in September and just gone fill speed ahead with Braun as the guy.
-
Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
I'm no Cody fan but he just drew a shit ton of people to see his match with Kenny Omega. He has proven them wrong after needing some time to find himself.

Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
You ride the Braun train until people are tired of it. They should have done that in September.

Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
Yeah. He's both the most overrated and underrated guy out there. His haters give him no credit but his defenders go way overboard and act like he's way better than he really is. Aside from Braun, it would say more about him if he wasn't having good matches with people. He's above average on a roster filled with guys that are good to great. He really needs 6 months off. Maybe get him to tweak some things in the ring and then bring him back full heel. Give the fans what they want and play to his strengths. He's not a particularly good or interesting face on his own and the booking hasn't helped that fact.
-
Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
wrestling in wwe has not really changed in that time though booking mentality wise its been the same since hogan came in i ment total wcw/wwe time when he was fully active like roman is now or oi tink this is what that guy said Roman is far more active than Hogan was. At the height of Hogan's popularity you could go a couple of weeks without him being on TV at all. And if he did show up, it was maybe for a 5 minute segment. Hogan also maybe wrestled at most 8 times on TV a year if we include PPV and that's probably on the generous side. So Hogan winning 8 matches is different than Reigns winning 40 matches and losing 10.

Colt tried to needle him a bit and he just had nothing. Random yelling. I don't understand why people like Scurll other than his Bullet Club shirt is awesome.

I mean. Why do you build up Kelly Klein for 2 years with an undefeated streak, job her to a 46 year old woman and then not make a big deal about it?

Wrestlemania Weekend 2018
My wife watched the second half of Spring Break 2 with me. She loved just listening to the announcers getting drunker as it progressed. She actually asked me if this was a regular promotion and was disappointed when I said no.

Wrestlemania 34
The Reigns/Lesnar thing was common knowledge since last year. So the predictable nature of everything was boring crowds. WWE also has an insane amount of content they put out weekly so they are just burning the fan base out in general I think.
-
Roman Reigns as the ace post-Wrestlemania
You really can't compare between eras though. Hogan's air time from 1984-1989 probably is less than a year of a main event guy now. So 4 years of Roman is insane when you consider the air time that requires.
