The McMahon's being MARKS for themselves and other forms of entertainment and being marks for the guys they choose to get behind. Fans blaming Roman are missing the point that Vince is a mark for him he has painted a picture in his head of him overcoming the odds and every time he doesn't get the reception he wants Vince figures...not yet but it's still happening. Them being marks for their guys and themselves is the reason that Shane would have a more competitive match against Lesnar than the talent and them being marks for general entertainment and ashamed of wrestling is the reason they want to present wrestlers as down to earth normal people instead of larger than life characters in an absurd world where they settle their issues in the ring, I've seen several wrestlers say they play characters like actors and that shyt turns me off to the whole thing and makes me wonder why I even watch. It's like a magician saying he's pretending to do magic, we know. I think that's what I liked about LU some of its off the wall but they have an overarching theme, everyone on the show wants to be champion and they don't ignore their history or don't contradict the legitimacy of their world. shyt doesn't have to make sense to follow logic.

Vince McMahon is 72 yrs old with a wife in the political game, a daughter who is trying to be mainstream, advertisers he has to satisfy and no WCW around to challenge him. On top of that he's stubborn and no one has ever accused him of being up to date with what's going on outside of his WWE universe. They need a reset creatively badly. Commentary is too robotic, the World title belts are the same, just a different color and all the sets outside of WM look the same. Also Kevin Dunn's action movie quick cuts are annoying. The roster is fine but the booking is just :francis: I'd see what Mark Henry could contribute booking wise. Discovered Braun, helped Neville cultivate his heel persona, maybe he could help producing some of the matches:yeshrug:

And if one wants they can find good/great shyt going on in:

LU
Evolve
ROH
Progress
NJPW
AJPW
DDT
Stardom
BJW
Dragon Gate

:yeshrug:

MLW trying to come back up, too :ehh:

I don't like wrestlers using their real name on social media as part of their twitter handle. If it were up to me I think I'd only have wrestlers on social media under their stage name and posting things that go with their character.

For me it's not them breaking kayfabe on the internet, to be fair you'd have to be a huge mark to follow a wrestler and want to see them behind the scenes but WWE is so weird and inconsistent with protecting kayfabe. Rusev and Lana get heat for leaking their engagement to tmz when they're broken up on tv but WWE was uploading videos of Braun Strowman dancing around in a elf costume while he was still a heel while also making him take down pictures he had where he was paling around with Roman Reigns.

Brock is still champ because out of spite, they want him to break Punk's 400 plus day reign. That has Raw stagnant, AJ vs Nakamura keeps getting these ridiculous finishes.

Why do people keep sayin' this when that's not even the same title... and Punk's run, while a long one, isn't the all-time number to beat anyway...

Impact thriving as well breh:ufdup:. Since they launched on Twitch, the game is slowly coming back in their favor. All they need to do is get a homegrown roster and stick in their lane for the complete trifecta of that 2002-09 feeling to come back:wow:

Facts.

Roman Reigns & a nonexistent Brock Lesnar in a feud that won’t seem to end.

Styles & Nakamura ending in a draw after having their best WWE match.

God awful Women’s Division for both shows.

Asuka not being in the title picture

Broken Matt Hardy just being a tag guy


Baron Corbin....Baron Corbin

The only bright spots in WWE right now are Miz, Styles, and Joe

Yes, you have a point and I couldnt have said it better:lolbron:

Roman is the problem, he had 2 back to back matches with Brock and he lost both. Let someone else taken on Brock. Roman is boring .

Plus his Mania L was pretty clear and concise

Where’s the logic and nobility in that from a babyface stand point?

“I’ll EARN my next shot at you Brock and when I do you’ll see a new and improved Roman Reigns”
