I wish there was more RevPro content but it looks like the shows they have on there are fantastic.
I tried powering through some Tournament of Death stuff from CZW but it's hard to watch more than one match at a time. From the most recent tournament, a guy was thrown off the roof of a truck onto a trampoline strung with barb wire. |

Man it was startling to say the least to go last night from watching Dontaku night 2 (LTTP I know) to just skimming over Backlash for the finishes...holy shit...
The announcing is just so god awful as well....all about buzzwords and stupid phrases no one cares about. Kelly and Callis are AWESOME, they were esp. during Okada/Tana...so good. Announcing can add a lot if done right...just another reason why the WWE's product is so bad right now. Anyways enough of that garbage... BOSJ is on the horizon and looks awesome and Dominion is stacked...could be show of the year honestly. Okada/Omega IV 2 out of 3 falls, no time limit...who the hell knows how long that'll go. Jericho/Naito should be great too. Cannot wait. The only one I give a shit about is Graves and even grates on me from time to time... |

botsj is stacked this year. Also wwe need to stop pushing Roman. Finn Balor,Braun,kevin,sami and seth are the guys who are the ones to get pushed. Also Nia vs. ronda should happen now.

Backlash was like a second streamed house show, greatest royal rumble being the first. Absolutely no reason to watch either.

Greatest Royal Rumble was pretty lame. I canceled my WWE Network after that. I might pick back up after football season like I usually do, until then I just don't care for most of what is going on in WWE right now. Nothing compels me.

It was probably a bottom quarter WM, GRR was awful and objectionable, and Backlash was one of the worst PPVs I've ever seen.
The value of the network isn't what is going on in WWE now, but the archive and NXT. The crowd barely gave a shit when Reigns won last night, and large portions of the audience left during the match. He's so awful that they're getting tired of shitting on him.

This is part of the preview for tonight's RAW.
Roman Reigns essentially neutralized his controversial Steel Cage Match loss to Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at the Greatest Royal Rumble event by overcoming the all-out onslaught of Samoa Joe at WWE Backlash. Will The Big Dog’s victory finally put him in a position to battle The Beast for the Universal Championship... Jesus ****ing Christ.... |

Do you guys think they should bring back jobbers and get rid of 50-50 booking so that more of the roster looks strong instead of good portions of your main event talent taking weekly losses on Raw?

I miss jobbers and the epic promos the stars did on the upper left of the tv screen during their matches

Every single member who's involved with creative, outside of NXT, needs to either be fired or retire. Seems at this point though they know they've got their hardcore audience that's going to watch no matter what and have given up on making a quality television show.

They would probably just 50-50 book fulltime jobbers.
Vince is going to build very few wrestlers like he did back in the Attitude era to try and avoid being bent over in negotiations, he wants the company to be bigger than the performers and they are flat out scared to really commit to anyone. |
