The Del Rio bandwagon was always too much, too early... I thought dude was good, but not nearly good enough to win the Rumble OR be given the belt 6 months in at Mania 27... and he's proven over the last year that the whole idea of him being pushed to the main event so fast was a mistake. If they had paced his push, right now he'd be at a point where he would fit into the main event. Instead, he got it all in a year and been boring ever since.

Barrett probably wouldn't have done any better, but he deserved the push Del Rio got because AT LEAST he lived up to the push he got. The Corre slowed him down and he's been trying to get back on point ever since, but he looks like with a solid enough push, he still has a chance to grow into a consistent main-eventer. Just cause it didn't happen overnight doesn't mean it's time to give up on him, because he didn't burn out like Del Rio has. It's a good thing they didn't throw the belt on him that fast, because he still has time/opportunity to become much better than he was during the Nexus run. We've pretty much seen all Del Rio's dimensions (at least as a heel), so it's all downhill for him at this point.

No character development, no reason for fans to care...

If the E would stop devoting time to "10 minutes ago" segments, "comedy" segments, and Divas matches, underrated talent such as Wade could get some shine

But this is E, this is 2012, the era, of fukkery :ohlawd:

:whoa:

So now a WWE cosign means something? I guess since Sheamus got that full green light you'll shut up about him now. :heh:

:comeon: I've made zero threads about Sheamus and never bring him up if he's not already being discussed.

The WWE cosign means everything. You really need to think things through better before you post.

Del Rio and Barrett are nowhere near similar. Even WWE flunkies acknowledged that Del Rio was hyped like a motherfukker.

The guy who wrote ADR's WWE Bio snuck in a line asking the E brass if it was any good, because "I know he's going to be a big deal, fairly quick."

Too much too soon I think Barrett getting punked out of Nexus by Punk and getting no payback (The Corre :heh: ) did as much damage as the Cena chair burial.


WWE booking is stupid they never strike when the iron is hot with guys even if i'm not big fans of Del Rio,Barrett or Ryback they never go all the way. They can't give Barrett a title run but they give unover doofus types like Jack Swagger MITB and a title run.

WWE bout to do the same shyt with Dolph. They already made him look like a joke with the 5 minute title reign during the Edge now he gonna do a J.O.B. on a PPV next weekend and lose his MITB.

He's much better with the beard and new character.

He needs to hit a light cycle or two like Orton and Vince will really take notice of him :mjpls:

I dont even think about Nexus Wade..the truth about Nexus is in a 8 man stable or whatever it was...only 2 of them looked the part of a bad ass goon...but they were all written to be that. So i disregard that shytty tease.


Curry Woy Barry is decent. He > ADR no question. And i love he didn't get that immediate un-deserved title run sheam style(wwe title).

Nah, to smarks. One minute you're shytting on guys the WWE cosigns like Ryback or Tensai, the next minute you justify it to deflect criticism. You can't have it both ways.
