In the last 3 months this guy has:
Changed his Entrance Music to him coming out to nothing
Done Shoot entrances making fun of Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker
Called Bobby Roode nothing but an entrance
Said the crowd are sheep because they care more about robes and songs then wrestling
Gave up the US title in 1 day because he said the crowd didn't deserve him

And no one cares lol.

No buzz on the internet, nothing on twitter where people are reacting, nothing on TSC, or the dirtsheets, or reddit.

This shyt has to be the one of most embarrassing storylines ever.

If the shoot isn't in the main event it doesn't matter. You have to give a lot of time and energy to these sort of storylines and there needs to be more than just "shoot promos" involved. Those are what people remember the most of course but you need a solid feud around it, the involvement of other people the crowd cares about, and good matches that mean something to the storyline and move it forward. WWE is not good at any of this on the midcard level. Also, Dolph's heel turn was lukewarm and he was treading water already when they booted this up. Despite what TSC says given it's random Ziggler hate boner, his promos actually do draw heat but so what? The storyline is forgettable just like every other midcard storyline. So Dolph is shooting, okay, we'll boo him. Now what? None of this leads anywhere unique. The WWE is a poorly booked clusterfukk and there's really nothing it does below the main event level that makes any noise. Hell, the Sami/Owens vs. Shane storyline can go in so many different directions and you basically have them being two goofball heels who lose 50% of the time against a guy who's doing a slow heel turn before our eyes. Everyone looks shytty. Owens and Zayn teaming up should have been something special. They should have dispatched Shane by now and moved on to something bigger. Shane is ruining this just like he did '03 Kane.

Anyway, the point is; WWE sucks.

His promos are not drawing shyt. It's silence. It's bathroom break. Have you watched this?

I don't even hate Dolph either.

I have watched them. They get the same reaction as any midcard heel promo. He's not getting booed out of the building but his reactions aren't any less than any other midcard heel.

They are non existent reactions. He is going out here calling everyone in the crowd horrible things and gets zero reaction.

I liked Dolph when he had that stable with Big E & A.J.

Hopefully this Naito turn will refresh his career.

Breh:ohhh:

I didn't realize they were biting off of Naito until you point it out. Dude fitting to come back and take forever to take off his vest talking about some "chill" to the audience:wow:.

Always been a Dolph fan but its looking like his time has passed.

Dolph is like a tree falling without anyone in sight to hear the sound:francis:. Dude peaked at the cash-in. Either take your talent to Canada or find another profession.

Changed his Entrance Music to him coming out to nothing
Done Shoot entrances making fun of Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Undertaker

He has been book to lose with a surprise win everyonce in awhile for the last 2 to 3 years. They buried dolph. You have to give people a reason to care and if you lose ALL THE TIME why would people be invested in something that they KNOW WILL LOSE. :gucci: why do you keep playing him like that?
