Biggest botched storyline of this era

[Busby]

the Invasion angle...nuff said..

 

[R=G]

Theyll go batshyt insane if they paid to see him which was the indications of WHY everyone went crazy the next night.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

Then the entire roster straight up leaving on Raw.

That part of it was dope but unfortunately it all went nowhere. They really fukked that up

 

[KEEPITTRILLA]

that triple h/punk/nash shyt really is comical, you got the hottest thing in the WWE since forever and you end it in 2 40 year olds going at it in a ladder match but Punk recovering from that means hes God

every week it got more confusing

LETS SAY HHH WANTED TO GET NASH A PAYCHECK or two..which is FINE its whatever


JUST MAKE HHH A HEEL AND HAVE NASH BE HIS GOON. drag it out for a while if you want but HHH sending 'the text' made sense and HHH would have gotten CM Punk over as a face more than any heel he faced during that summer. HHH/Nash/Stephanie screwing over CM Punk and him getting his revenge would've been great booking and it would've spoken to his worked shoot very well.

BUT NO they fumble at the one

 

[The G.O.D II]

Punk had no Austin moment because he didnt carry the industry on his back...not even close. Ryback getting a shot did make money though.

And Nexus sold merchandise, increased buys, was legitly over as heels instead of this cool heel shyt Punk does that changes nothing, and were easily the talk of the industry in 2010 above any and everything. Rock came back in 2011 and an absymal Mania does great. Punk gets hot and cant blow away the Nexus Summerslam number at all. Limitimations..big talk that didnt do anything for the bottom line.

Tue Nexus summerslam drew 350k while Punk vs Cena did 296k. Get the fukk otta here with fake semantics

See this is why you are a bad debater and ppl shyt on you regualrly. Punk not garnering bigger buys then the previous SS has nothing to do with him personally. Its well known buys have decreased with the yearly events. SS 09 did 375k. Does that mean Orton in 09 was bigger then Nexus. Like Liggins said, Nexus sucked and were not believable after a month. Cena legit should of buried bums like tarver and slater. The only thing wrong with that storyline is they buried Wade too in a ridiculous manner. No way in hell were they ever better or more over then Punk in 12 or the shield

Yes.

 

[﹏﹏⛴﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏]

No Anonymous GM option?

 

[Ed MOTHEREFFING G]

No Anonymous GM option?

that was bad but realistically its typical WWE amnesia stuff; GTV was identical to it...

Heel Michael Cole was worse though...with the Cole Mine...and Jerry Lawler never getting revenge on him.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Not THAT big of a botched storyline, but they are running Team Hell No into the fukking ground right now, which is a shame since it was one of the most refreshing storylines in years.

Bad debater? People would gloss over me instead of running to any thread I start and going 3 pages in one hour. Don't be silly. In truth, I can't be touched.

Punk had NOTHING to do with the buys. Well..DUH. We know. He doesn't draw. That's the point. That's what counts. That's what this worked business is all about...all the cute smark promos and the slick reactions that gets pops...what the fukk has that done or meant at all? Nothing. Cena is still taking his main event spot at Mania while he HOPEFULLY gets in if Taker isn't up to par.

It's "well known"? No..it's not well known. We are the only motherfukkers talking about this shyt. The causals don't give a motherfukk about any of this nonsense. But Vince McMahon does and if Punk was a real draw, Rock wouldn't be necessary and Rock wouldn't be headlining for 3 years straight with a 4th being next year against Lesnar.

Nexus sucked and weren't believable? Why? Because some little goofball fantasy writer says so on the Coli? LOL. No..they were selling shirts and generating pretty loud fukking NEXUS SUCKS chants at Summerslam 2010 and beyond. The same event where in 1997, the crowd went buck wild for Austin and turned on Cripple H for the Rock the next year. Barometers and the ones I saw showed the Nexus being a big fukking deal.

And to make light of Wade getting buried and held down and all of that weak sissy mindset that makes weak debaters hard every day? That's why you get glossed over and show up after someone has made a legit point of merit. Can't be taken seriously. Shouldn't be taken seriously if you can't even read between the lines. What kind of stupid son of a bytch is going around thinking the Nexus was just some sucker faction that weren't meant for shyt? IF THEY HAD GOTTEN BOOKED like a heel Cena or Cripple h's Evolution, you would care and it would draw..because with half a push, it already was. Smarten up. Simple math.

Of course they did, the whole point was to mock Occupy Wall Street. That was never going to go anywhere; it was just another node in the web of garbage that was the Punk/Nash/Hunter feud.

Heel Michael Cole was worse though...with the Cole Mine...and Jerry Lawler never getting revenge on him.

I can't believe this slipped our minds.

Heel Cole loudly shytting on everything and openly burying the product as a play-by-play guy.

Heel Cole as Miz' right hand man (The left was, of course, Alex Riley).

Heel Cole being responsible for seeing Jerry Lawler's leathery ass getting prime slots on RAW (Not to mention wrestling...screw watching AARP members wrestle in main events for the top title in the company).

Heel Cole winning a reverse decision at WrestleMania, after taking 80% of the match versus Lawler. Somehow, this match not only served as a gigantic middle finger to all people watching WrestleMania, the concept of paying off angles at their height and decency in wrestling, but somehow made Hart/McMahon at WrestleMania look like Hart/Hart at WrestleMania.

Heel Cole being the vehicle through which Jim Ross is embarrassed in prime RAW slots. Again. For like 3 straight months.

Heel Cole existing after the theoretical payoff of the angle, subjecting viewers to many more months of this jackass before they quietly have Cole drop the character and merely be boring and understated again.

Holy shyt I hated this angle.

The Kang deserved that title program - just because - and he managed to get good matches with great heat out of the Miz (who at that point was already getting back to being complete garbage). fukk heel Cole, but Jerry showed he still had it

The heat was fine, but I thought the matches were mediocre at best. King was 60+ and couldn't do anything but punch, which doesn't interest me, while Miz' best match up to that point just involved Bryan popping a tape of one of his matches with Nigel McGuinness into a player for Miz to watch and telling him, "See what the spiky haired British guy is doing? Do that." Those matches were weak.

Old people in rings is one of those things that I don't think I'll ever care for in wrestling. The fact that it was a part of an awful angle was a double-whammy.

You are missing out

When Jerry was in his 20's his offense was only punches, a bodyslam, maybe a suplex and a once in a while a piledriver. His matches have always been about crowd heat and drama. He never does anything special moves wise. That's why he's so great
