People want Corbin to be this anti-smark, "too cool for wrestling" persona and he's awful at it.
His deliver is just so cot damm slow and it sounds like he is reading from a script which makes it even worse
I just don't see what is so great about him beside his height at best he is a midcard heel
Both him and Cass are just :francis:and there going to be pretty much along with Bruan the new go to big man replacing Kane, Big Show & Henry. The only one who has shown any type of real potential and charisma is Braun.

What levels of hypocracy, btw, does Dave and Bryan have with destroying Jinder for knocking out Balor, but give omega a TOTAL PASS for doing the same to evil, AND hitting him with a OWA afterward. If that was anyone else domestic he would've destroyed them. Ridiculous really.

They pick favorites so bad.

Idk who comes off worse when Dave and a wrestler get into snarky bullshyt with each other.

Dave, the writer who makes his entire living off of a business he's not actually in but tries to make fools of people in it when he gets a hair up his ass, also in his mid 50s getting into twitter feuds

or

The wrestler who has no reason to ever talk to or care about Dave, particularly once they're already in WWE, and especially if they're a guy who wasn't hired because he was great on the indies or Japan.


Both dudes in the situation always come off like idiot children.

Low key Vince and co. have been playing around with their replacements for a minute but when one would fail they'd just fall back on one of the Big Three but they are all pretty much retired/semi retired and rich at this point and don't seem to be interested in the every three year monster heel push in between bouts of random jobbing. Vince realizes he has to make something shake and so far only Strowman is working out.

He can find a 6'6-6'9 guy if he minds NCAA division 1 men's basketball or even mma and get a guy better then cass or Corbin

That's how they found the AOP guys. One wrestled in college, the other was a MMA fighter.

There's a couple of 7 footers in NXT that played D-1 football. MMA fighters that fight on the regional circuit could be recruited easily, since they don't make a lot of money (you'll be lucky to make 500 to show and win sometimes) or if their career isn't going anywhere
