Tardiness? Who the hell complained about Rock being tardy when he's the top star? Lol.

Take control of DC by wanting Superman to face Black Adam? Well DC hadn't had a hit since and the Superman actor is gone.

The Rock made $270 million last year. Outranking all actors in Hollywood. His habits aren't the problem at all.

Be sure to zip up Dwayne's pants when you're done. and don't forget to wipe off your mouth.

Turning your top babyface for no reason is dumb as hell.

You’re too young so you missed when Russo tried turning Sting & Goldberg heel. And when Austin turned heel.


So cena turning was dumb as fukk.

What should have happened was simple as hell.

Cena goes over as a face over gunther.
Jey becomes tribal chief and turns on cody.

You never needed rock.

The issue is this company acts like vince still runs this shyt through cripple ache. So the same assinine bullshyt continuity.
that occurred with vince. Is going to occur with the son in law.
Mania should be the simplest booked show of the year.
as far as results.
wwe is built on thr face dynamoc at mania period. Wwe is based in draw off the face creates the feel good go home story. Yet it seems sincr the son in law has been in the fold. Wwe had leaned on a failed homogenized flair has issues woth crockett style direction. That has been provrn as not being a large enough draw. Plus fails to appease the gateway consumer.
Which creates why wwe fails.
when in a corporatr buyout. If you have a chance to knock it out the park. You take it. As i have discussed in my series. Where we blame the worker. Ala luger. When the worker was booked inaccurrately in legacy and rhe promotion was to dimwitted to fix it. or even recognize they damaged a box office draw. This mania was like watching nwa.
fail to put the title on luger or sting. Then wonder why you number two.

This Mania should have been about making things make sense to the new consumer. you already had your swerve built into the programming long term with jey uso. It was right there for the taking. Yet because of simple racism in direction at wwe. This company got lost.

The only shake up that needed prolong thought was jey and the bloodline. Yet since the bloodline have taken the mantra as the wwe legacy based heel. They tried to change that dynamic into a cripple ache based direction. By havin seth take on all the variables. Associsted with the bloodline. That really make no sense. Beside seth being cripple ache's indie stooge avatar. .
The issue with mania this year is. they failed to keep it simple.
Only fukkery should have been trying to set up.
internal conflict in the bloodline moving forward. As far as plausible continuity and motive. When they had a simple motive. Jey failed to beat gunther. That now to ensure his legacy. Jey makes the simple turn and it makes sense.
That was the only real heavy lifting.
That needed to take place. Yet that moves things back to a possible rock v roman or tongan rule. Sohh of course the maga side of this corporation. Stepped in to make it based around their maga stooge in cripple ache .
Instead we got disconneft based angle after disconnect. Plus someone trying to sabotage wwe in perception. By damaging the legacy of their only last real babyface in cena. Then also not even trying to change cena imagery in look.
to that of a corporate guy. So now you have this corporate entity with no actual direction or identity in legacy.
Which is silly and counterproductivr to this being a supposed real corporation. Moving away from a mom and pop family legacy business.
Plus ruining the face based direction of wwe.
Which is why the wwe is wwe.

What the wwe just did at this mania.

Needs severe damage control . Yet wwe just moved into the territory that ruined marvel. Complete death of a draw from overzealous leadership. That makes no sense in decisi9n making. As well as deviation.
from what the company model and identity is. That makes sense to th3 consumer. At mania. The wwe just basically said they are not the wwe. They just do big ass wrasslin shows.
after acquiring the wwe name.
As this mania totally undermined mania.
This mania was one of those defeat the purpose clash of the champions. Where ric flair wpuld beat luger or sting. The nwa would be on death door knob. Till turner came in and it became even more confusing. As wcw never understood why they were number two. Which was from poor decision making. When the correct pathway. To the drawing promised land was right there. Yet instead overthinking i guess ypu could say occurred. Yet historically we know flair was holding the book hostage. Or the company was run by crockett to bischoff.
Who were just money marks.
Who really had no idea how to make shyt pop frfr. Then turner comes in and does solid to keep it alive. Yet in not coming in with corporate order. To streamline the buyout.
This is the same type of mismanagement. As wcw had. when trying to explain the nwa and wcw title picture.
This is rhe same type of direction lacking decision making.

Where people in power are overthinking and making position of power pitches. Instead of just doing the simple work.

This mania was simple.

Night one should have just been the standard super cena squashes gunther match. There should have been no cena turn. No naomi turn. No black scorpion quattro. Street profits should have been at mania defending the titles at the tag team ladder match. cm punk, roman and srth had no direction that made any plausivle drqwing sense. Besides elecatinf cripple ache's avatar.
Wwe got ruined.
by not understanding their own company direction. To try to scramble for leadership pr clout via the gate.

Thr problem with wwe is also. It is run by someone who does not understand.
why flair never drew on hogun level. Yet continues to try to make proven flops from nwa amd wcw past. Into wwe lore. When wwe does not invest the viewer into their tape Library. That the consumer has complete disconnect.
Plus to create this level of disconnect. When they have a movie property coming up. That could be a ringsport gateway.
similar to rocky iii for the ufc. That trickles down to wwe.
Instead,...
Wwe has to do damage control. To fix the direction of wwe moving forward to the casual fan. So that possibly when this rock ufc movie hits. It becomes the same type of boom rocky iii afforded the wwf, hogun, and vince. Btw of mr t's permeation as clubba.

nikkas talking about its obvious something happen


Yeah… he’s got a big movie role with Martin Scorsese and Leonardo

Ain’t no big conspiracy ain’t no rock and hhh beef

He’s probably not allowed to get involved


Wrestling to the rock is the fat bytch at the club for last call… he was talking to wrestling but then that bad bytch came back around trying to give Rock some. So he said duces


Yeah I said I was going to be there but now I’m not — change of plans


And he didn’t like the negative reactions he was getting so he went on the Pat show to bullshyt his way through

I get he’s our hero from our teenager years but lots of dudes in cape mode

He’s Hollywood doing Hollywood shyt
