    I'm wondering now about that final MitB spot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,888 ✭✭✭Charisteas


    Dammit I thought it was Florence from Florence and the Machine. When the hell was the Brady Bunch last on tv?! Ridiculous

    Pretty good. The nexus storyline is interesting. Look up the stuff online. WWE has a deal with you tube now so its never been easier to keep up with the tv shows online. http://www.youtube.com/wwefannation

    The NXT stuff has been very solid to be fair. Big red as a champ has been entertaining and booked very well, and that is from someone who wasn't huge on him initially. Bourne is been pushed which is lovely to see.

    The Miz is the same as before really, entertaining but he's still just a bit away from the main event.

    The computer GM is annoying but its got people guessing which is always fun.

    Ted is trying bless him, he is good in the ring, but has NO charisma, Maryse as his missus has totally overshadowed him, the sexy minx.

    The Harts and the Uno's are feuding, the Harts are very dull as faces, they just smile and look goofy and cut corny promos.

    Orton and Edge feud won't ever end either, which is a shame because its been muck from day one something which I didn't expect as I love both guys.


    Jo Mo is doing nothing really sadly.

    Regal has been buried which is a huge shame. :(

    oh and Santino and Kozlov are teasing a tag team, it's been mildly amusing.

    Would be a good choice (If masters decided not to enter and win the match obviously). I would put Gabriel in for a mad spot.

    So Florence Henderson, can you say last minute filler


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Ah have they removed J.R.'s 'The world is watching' phrase on the Raw intro?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,238 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    Huh I was perplexed by that as well. :eek:

    Wonder if someone violated Wellness.... Readymade cover for it if they interfered in the match tonight....

    Very big Ns aren't they? They need to decrease that a bit. I thought that was a good opening segment. I liked the back-and-forth with Cena and Barrett.

    I like Cena but if he wins tonight it will crap all over the Nexus gimmick so hopefully Wade pins him.

    Yeah, that was something I was thinking when I heard 90 days suspension.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,238 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    Alicia is better than Maryse at pretty much everything. Just saying...:cool:


    She does need to bulk up a little though..:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,997 ✭✭✭Degag


    Well, we know that Eve won't be gracing the commentary booth anytime soon again!

    Well neither of them have been hit with the ugly stick, but Alicia has a certain something about her..:o

    To be honest when it comes to grading them in the looks department, my favorite switches all the time, but Alicia right now...:cool:

    No, neither are bad looking but Maryse just does it for me!

    I'd say Alicia would be a demon in the sack though!

    It's a shame the Usos have got lost in the shuffle after their debut and that the Hart Dynasty no longer have the rub of Bret. They could have had a great little feud but I don't think many care about it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,153 ✭✭✭Jolt2007


    There was something strange and different about Ted I couldn't figure out when he came out and I just realised what it is. He confused me by wearing trousers.

    The NXT lads, Orton and Punk don't bother with pants do they. :eek:

    Maryse was so much more charismatic than Jo Mo and Ted in that segment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 493 ✭✭mixed up


    John morrison's entrance is great.Maryse looks amazing lol at her talking french.

    Opening segment with Cena and Nexus. Cena said he might lose but he'd try and take out some of Nexus or words to that effect.

    Alicia beat Gail. Usos got the better of Hart Dynasty ahead of their match on Sunday as expected. Yoshi got beat up by Nexus. Jericho congratulated Wade on what he'd done so far.

    That's about it really.

    Is it me or do Maryse and Ted have ZERO chemistry? Like not even 5%. It's not working for me at all and seems so blatantly forced.

    Oh Sheamus, you're the footiest footnote to ever footnote. Cena is still the champion, just not holding the belt. Again.

    That was up there with William Shatner singing the entrance theme's as the best "comedy" the WWE have done in a long time!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,076 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc


    If it wasn't for this Nexus angle and the interest I have in it, I really would have no interest in any of the WWE product. Its so embarrassingly aimed at the kids that it's almost offensive considering the Attitude era and all that was about. It was "cool" to be into wrasslin' around the time of The Rock, Austin etc, but now its a kids programme.

    I enjoy TNA so much more now. Yeah the production values aren't as high, the writing can be a little off at times, but I genuinely enjoy the slightly edgy side that it has. I enjoyed VR last night so much more than I've enjoyed a WWE PPV in years.

    I get that WWE has gone PG for the benjamins, but I really hope it eventually gets its edge back.

    All that is coming from the two awfully playground-like promos by Cena and Morrison tonight.
    They're just really tough to watch without cringing. Then this GM crap is already giving me X-Pac heat. Add to that really uninteresting filler and its all a bit meh.

    EDIT: Also, breaks during matches, why????? There is no need for it most of the time. 6 minute matches that you manage to fit a break in the middle. Christ!
