New Column: The Object Of The Game

ted says:

It is WAY TOO SOON for AJ to be the WWE champion. ”

Oh come off it. Just try it, it might actually work. You act as thought they couldn’t just throw the belt on whoever they want at anytime? the name wrestlemania sells the show. For god sake the tickets for the show are usually more than half sold before any card is even announced.

“But Styles is great in the ring! WHO GIVES A SHIT. It means nothing. ”

This is such a stupid comment it made my mind explode. Hey Greg what do you suppose these wrestlers spend three quarters of their time doing? Bravo on all caps. I’m sure empathizes makes you more right somehow?

” He has to connect with the casuals first before he means anything.”

How would you know if he could before you try it? If sheamus can be world champ less than three months after debuting on raw. I see no reason why aj can’t win the belt.

“Owens and Ambrose aren’t at a point where they can be relied upon to be top draws. ”

If you push them and treat them as such yes they can. Like it i said it might not work but how would you know unless you try?

“. You don’t experiment (usually) going into Mania.”

With the sheer number of injuries there would be no better time to experiment. Who knows you might actually create some new stars. That is what they’re trying to do isn’t it?

” This is not a B level PPV.”

It’s the perfect show to make new stars.

“Reigns does get cheered.”

I never said he doesn’t.

“You refuse to listen to the times he does.”

You refuse to read what I write. He doesn’t get cheered enough to be the center focus of raw. He isn’t versatile enough at this point, To make his matches interesting, His promos are awful. I’ve always been fair and said part of the blame goes to the people who write them. He’s still terrible at delivering them. He doesn’t have much charisma. All in all he’s to generic and every time he’s put against someone who has charisma he gets booed. He’s where he’s at because he looks the part, without knowing how to play the part.

“Doesn’t mean he is always booed.”

Never said that learn to read.

“When Cena, Orton and Rollins go down, I’ll give them a pass. Why? Cause you can’t have guys waiting in the wings to replace those three”

Even though that’s their job?

“Those are mega stars (okay, Rollins was developing into a mega star). You can’t build backup mega stars in case of injury. Doesn’t work like that”

Your own writing disproves your own point. Rollins was on his way up. Dean ambrose in my opinon is on his way up. Owens, A.J. , etc could be slotted into main event status.

This isn’t woe is the wwe the talent roster is so thin. This is wwe doing their best to smash their version of who the stars on the roster are, and the audience disagreeing, This is my biggest problems with Reigns.

He’s not the guy, it’s quite clear he isn’t. Yet instead of listening to the audience and trying some of the aforementioned guy in his slot. They tell the audience their wrong and Reigns is the future. This is why you get reactions like rr 2014 and 2015 and arguably 2016. The company is tone deaf. They refuse to listen to what the audience wants and think they can tell you what you want. It does not work that way.
