| Eddv 12/22/18 7:39:57 PM #5 | I think Ronda is a lock for Most Improved (HM to my BOY Juice) but I think I may very well give her 1st place points for Wrestler as well. Certainly she will be my top WWE point getter. Only others I have in consideration are Cody (for All In), Velveteen Dream and Omega (for an overall excellent year). Woman is an incredibly close category. I see Ronda Becky Charlotte and Asuka as worthy point grabbers but Jordynne Grace, Allie, Wera Loca and Tessa all deserve mention as well. For angle of the year I kinda want to vote for BTE leading into All In but Im not sure how to put it succinctly. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 |

Or even The Rock if he had been forced to say The Millions AND MILLIONS of WWE UNIVERSE MEMBERS WHO LIKE THE ROCK. Or if they had to dedicate TV time trying to grt over shit that only their shareholders could possibly care about. Like getting over the current talent and current angles are like their 5th and 6th priorities overall and then we all sit here and bitch about them having no good angle and no good stars.

I mean they in some senses got bailed out by John Cenas sheer level of talent and charisma who forced the frankly impossible goals of Vinces corporate cult speak lingo to not completely crash and burn. I mean some fans still absolutely resented Cena during that run and latched on to every anti establishment figure who might overturn the status quo there was but in the end John Cena wasnt the problem - Vince was.

I can understand a week here or there for someone, more if you're a jobber with no push. But you should at least get a backstage appearance if you're not on the show. The lack of momentum demonstrates to an audience that no one cares about Almas as an actual valuable component of the show. If his only appearances in the last six months have been a biweekly appearance in a functional qualifier match of some sort, then he's a jobber that doesn't matter. I mean he is essentially the Essa Rios to Zelina Vegas Lita. He is basically a jobber. Should he fight Tyler Breeze I would assume Breeze was going to win. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 |

The Turks want us to back off of helping the Kurds in Syria? Then they need to commit troops necessary. Its not as though they want Russia and Iran entrenched on their doorstep either. They don't want to? Then they have to deal with US support of the Kurds. Trump lacks any such subtlety. Or any consistency. The day after announcing withdrawal from Syria he signed the Farm Bill which further entrenched the US in the Yemen conflict. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 |

Brief summary though : this week's shows were the worst of all the recent shows because they were so insulting to our intelligence and so revealing of the fact the company has no idea what is wrong I have started the podcast - and while Todds vision sounds good I do think that there is a bit more room for the fantastical and the funny than he's kind of suggesting. Like big goofy wedding angles for instance are every bit the big part of wrestling as Bret Hart's out wrestling the shit out of everyone was. But in general he is right. I think ultimately Nikki Bella is the smartest WWE character because she's the only one who understood the truth of WWE - wins and loss DONT matter and the characters SHOULD just embrace that given that its reality. I'll go one further though - they don't even really understand what's right. Like if you were seeking to re tool your program, even if I didn't know what was wrong I would LATCH to the things that are working - Strowman, Ronda, Elias on raw, Bryan, Becky/Charlotte/Asuka, and Rusev on smackdown and just sort of hand them the keys. They don't even have the awareness to do that. Hell Paige and Corbin aren't even remotely what was wrong! Corbin got a hell of a reaction Monday even. --- Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 |

If theyre gonna be jobbers anyway what need have you to upgrade on guys like Ryder and Hawkins?

Like Seth's entire argument for being top guy was that he is truly capable of going and main eventing compelling feature matches as a baby face. And granted that Ziggler was likely not the ideal opponent and that the booking had issues my personal theory is that in wrestling you can go out and look like such a geek in any given moment that it comes to define you.
