Royal Rumble Fallout Thread **Look For Merged Topics Here**

[browne81]

That's actually a great question. I don't know. I'd be shocked, but I've waited for it for so long that I don't know if I'd even care that much anymore. I really don't see that happening. Cena has progressively been getting worse with his corny jokes and cheesy promos and facial expressions. It's almost to the point where I really don't care about the character anymore. To answer your question, no it wouldn't make it worthwhile for me at this point.

Lol yeah his jokes have been kinda bad, his promos are a mix of good and bad. and the facial expressions make me want to jump off a bridge. But see here is the thing if he turns heel then I think all that will change. He will become more sinister. Just like hogan did when he turned heel.

Cena jean shorts will probably be black his tshirt will definitely be black. I am calling it right here right now CENA will turn heel at or before WM 29.

So all of these got merged.

I would like to comment on my op which was the one about firing the writers and hiring me instead.

The outcomes don't bother me all that much really. It is just the way they go about it all. Ziggler gets eliminated from the Rumble and everyone left in are Faces. Now tell me this, with the people left in the ring it is pretty obvious Cena will win. Then for the end of the WWE Title Match, we get what we knew was coming with Vince coming out which is perfectly fine, that is how wrestling works. but to have it end on the elbow and not even a kick out from the elbow and hit a rock bottom or something. Its just to easy.

I just feel that the writers, Vince, whomever makes decisions always take the simple route, which to people like us, yes it is very easy to predict. Yes I still watch it because I still like it, I just think they could spice it up here and there on what is supposed to me the main events of big PPV's.


Oh and to the person that asked what happens tomorrow night? Cena has boring promo about how it is his time to win and get redemption. Rock has Promo about how he has finally climbed back to the top and that he is no longer just the people's champ but now also the the WWE Champ and he is back HOME. Then we get a Punk Promo. Which consist of him whining a little bit, and meandering with the crowd since they are so happy that he lost. Towards the end of the promo or the night depending how it goes down. We get Brock coming out to look like he makes the save for Punk but instead turns on him to set up Punk Vs. Brock. Or Punk will have a match and the lights will go out so everyone thinks its the Shield. Lights come back on, Punk is laughing until he turns around to see Taker.


Easy Peasy man. Pay me my moneys.

Absolutely pathetic PPV. Who would have thought Del Rio / Big SLOW would steal the show? I know vince calls all the shots, but how incredibly underwhelming can you get here? How are some of you not furious with this?

Foolishly, I still defend WWE in a mainstream light with my friends, but even I can't stomach a damn 2+month build up of a WWE champion who wont even be at half the time vs. the goldenboy himself, getting put over at mania since Wrestlemania 21. Who would have thought that one of the best booking decisions in years of having the Rock beat Cena at WM28 would turn into a prolonged two year feud to have SHITTY cena put over at WM29.

Crock vs. SuperCena, a holdfest rematch of "the ego man behind the past year of bad booking" Triple H vs. "the could have been..." Brock Lesnar, an overhyped CM PUNK/Taker and ziggler/Del Rio

Fuck you, WWE #wewantaustin

I was gonna reply to this post, but it's a little to edgy for me

WWE will continue to be predictable until they actually get some competition. WWE is only predictable because they don't have to take the risks that come along with being unpredictable. Unlike TNA who has been doing a pretty good job with the swerves they have had in recent months. WWE won't start taking risks again until something big happens like TNA challenging them or there ratings really fall hard.

Each of these would work for me. Problem is, WWE is just proving month after month that they have to do less and less to earn our money - so where is their incentive? To entertain us fans? Not if it doesn't involve us parting with our money. WWE doesn't feel like they owe the fans and well they shouldn't.

Because people want the Attitude Era again. I agree with you that it just seems like everyone only want to complain and sorry I misread what you said. I thought you meant people had no right to complain at all. There were a lot of positives about this Royal Rumble like Y2J, Ziggler looking impressive, and like I said earlier Ryback finally looking vulnerable.

See I don't even think it's that anymore. I think it's just that we're so passionate about a genre of entertainment that isn't super popular with the masses and we hold it dear to our hearts. It's not that we want the blood and guts of the attitude era back, or at least I don't really need that to enjoy wrestling, but it's just we want to see something that we haven't seen before. And it's hard to really generate that when everything's been done a few times over, but we want it anyway.

To all the people that are complaining that WWE is too predictable, here is the thing. If your reading a good book, the closer you get to the end of the book, the more predictable the ending gets. Usually there is only a few possible outcomes by the time it comes down to it. The same is with wrestling. They are telling a story and in doing so you have to foreshadow certain events. With that said, if you are looking to be suprised by the end of that same book, you really shouldnt read the last page first. In other words, coming on sites like these where the outcome is being talked about by thousands of people, is basically like reading the last page of the novel. If you are gonna do that with the book you are reading, then you better at least enjoy reading the story along the way. If you dont do that, then maybe its time to put that book down...

You've never read a good book then.

I honestly wish I never found this site or any site like it. When I watched wrestling before I knew of any dirt sheet I had a much better time watching the show. However now that I found this site it impossible for me not to visit. I come here at least once a day to read the latest wrestling news

WWE has always been predictable, everyone understands that. But TELEVISION is evolving. People that tune in EVERY week for 3 hours want something with a little shock factor. If they think younger kids are going to stick around wrestling when they turn 13 and have seen ziggler vs. Cena on RAW 3 weeks in a row, and the same dry tag matches finishing in 1/10 typical WWE booking scenarios, they like most former fans will turn the TV to monday night football.

I mean what does Dexter, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead have that wrestling never will? SHOCK VALUE..they rely on cliffhangers weekly. as long as these conservative headquarter figures are in charge, WWE will continue to see ratings fall as low as savia vega vs Hunter Hurst Helmsley did in 97'. NO ONE WANTS TO SEE shameus/del rio vs show/ziggler every other damn week.

And don't give me the bullshit about booking toward kids. 10 year olds are watching sports, violent drama TV, and porn..quit with the PG excuse. I hashtagged it once and I'll do it again, #WEWANTAUSTIN
