Dio Maddin getting bounced around like a pinball from commentary to shyt gimmicks... you couldn't throw cuz in their with the Hurt Business, have Shelton bring him along in a tag team for a while, and then when he's ready have him or Cedric turn on the group and feud with each other?

Company got no clue what it's doing and it's so painfully obvious.
I dont see why Dio couldnt be like big rookie like Wardlow and Shelton been the veteran in tag matches. Really good call

Omos could have been the bodyguard for MVP especially with The Hurt Business always acting like they ran "Raw Underground" anyway. It would have made sense that they hired the bodyguard to their stable

he doesn't fit AJ Styles at all.

Raw Underground mighta been the most wasted gimmick in a long time in the company. It took them weeks to get it running in the midst of COVID-era, then almost as soon as pieces started to fall into place, with a lot of the shooter-backgrounded folks getting moved to RAW, The Hurt Business being there and it legitimately seeming like a perfect situation for Lashley to showcase there until they could float the Brock match or until they could use it to make a star out of the people with legit backgrounds... and then it was gone.

The fact that Dolph Ziggler had multiple matches on Underground - even multiple in the same show - but Matt Riddle never did anything there is ridiculous. Arturo Ruas was ready for Raw Underground but you couldn't throw Thatcher out there to stretch someone for a few minutes in an atmosphere made for it? Which says nothing of the payoff we lost of Omos needing to leave the door and actually go in there and throw hands when someone eventually got handsy with Shane? fukking absurd. I swear I coulda rolled two blunts and booked out Raw Underground for months ahead of time and had everyone involved come out at least looking better than they went in. Woulda had the Gulaks and Dunnes and O'Reillys of the world on a revolving door feature program on some 'who is gonna show up on Underground this week?!?:jbhmm:' shyt. Woulda had Lumis debut on the main just in the crowd, being stoic. Someone in a match fukks with him and gets choked out to silence and a cutaway on his vacant stare. Immediately better than turning him into mute cartoonist Elias like they will.

Shayna and her girls woulda whooped Nia down on some early Shield pack shyt... woulda had Shayna win the Raw Women's and refuse to defend it anywhere but Underground because it was her element. Force women who want to challenge to fight through Jessamyn and Marina on some Mortal Kombat underboss shyt... leading to a Raw Underground match between her and Asuka. Let the other two run in to try and fukk things up since there are no rules, and oh, what's that? On top of the randomly-placed office?! Io Shirai?! :ohhh:. She takes out Shafir and Duke, cross-promote for seeing those two catch their fade in a real match on NXT on Wednesday... and in doing all that, you show a bunch of those women with shooting backgrounds who age out of MMA that it doesn't need to just be hair extensions and breast implants if they want to keep doing something after.

But Vince is an old man who wants his way and thinks it's the only way. Meanwhile, the most juiced I got from anything on RAW this year was watching Lashley'n'em fukk nikkas up in church clothes. Well-dressed, excellently-spoken, successful black ass-kickers running roughshod over Underground until WWE has to call in their back-tatted white savior woulda been an angle that even Vince coulda gotten behind, and I assure you... it woulda gotten attention. What kind of tie is Shelton gonna wear this week and strangle a jobber with?:gladbron: Lashley really finna work the whole match with his button-up tucked in? :whoo:

nikkas is on twitter blowing up AEW because Miro was out there in an ugly expensive sweater beating up a ginger. Hurt Business dressed like youth pastors hurling jobbers into a crowd of onlookers woulda gotten over:manny:

Literally a massively missed chance.

nikka I am calm :mjlol: I'm a fukking novelist and I'm high. I don't give a fukk what this company does in the face of everything else in the world, but writing long-form is second-nature to me. It took you longer to read it than it took me to think of and write it.

Also; you don't know me, fam. Ion't like how that energy felt:unimpressed:

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
I honestly think wwe purposely leaks these stories to get people talking at this point

I think they figured with how upset the marks get on social media about this kind of stuff, that it actually gets fan more behind that particular wrestler

there was definitely some of that going with the Daniel Bryan stuff

To be fair... some of the most publicity this company has gotten of late has been from underutilizing black talent, or doing questionable fukk-shyt and getting called on it. I wouldn't put it past Vince's septuagenarian ass to be trying to 'work' the internet by being a dikk to talent of color in hopes it'll circle around and help the company when he gives a modicum of concession. Honestly, I believe Naomi's stuff earlier and Kofimania just reinforced that.

I didn't watch nxt when Keith lee was there. I'm going to catchup on the network of him bc from what I see on raw, I'm unfortunately inclined to agree with Vince in that "I'm not seeing it"

That being said, I can't blame Lee. I happened to fall asleep with the network the other day and I woke up and his documentary was on. Dude is 36 yrs old and wwe passed on him multiple times before. He looked like he was a monster before in his 20s. But now he may be on the downside of things and wwe waited too long. Which is sad. I have the same fear for Big E. Dude should have been pushed several years ago.

I really hope I am wrong though.

I think it’s definitely a sign from Vince to lose weight. Otis too, his story with Gable is absolutely headed to fat guy in a little robe
