Topic: Wrestling?

Countdown is great but hasn't been updated in a while, which is a shame.

I'm just whining I guess, but it feels like WWE is in a complete holding pattern, like TNA was the last few months of 2009, doing nothing-happening shows because they were just waiting for January 2010 when Hulk Hogan would arrive to shake things up.

I get like this sometimes when I get really unsatisfied with WWE for a long stretch. Last time was 2006-2007.

Luke Harper is a reasonably good big man, but there are people like him around. Period. The best I see for him would be a role like Kane has it right now in matches for the future, but my guess is that he will be a weird undercard guy with a trucker background like Mike Knox was for example,posing a reasonable thread for the Undercard until he gets future endeavoured cause as Tai already stated, "Creative has nothing for him".
Erik Rowan. Fired all on his own.
Bray Wyatt. Midcard Version of Harper, probably in line for the Kane role someday too.

I think that Bo Dallas, as much as I dislike him, is booked very good right now. A heel that thinks that he is a face is the perfect role for that guy, who looks really creepy for me with his sweaty hair and pale skin.

What I find funny is that Rusev has already reached his goal. He already defeated 3 Americans that shoved the flag in his direction, all former World Champions or at least IC champions. Even when Cena crushes him some day, I can´t see the win for America supporters from this as only the very best American is able to beat Rusev, so everyone who represented them up until that point was just too weak to beat him and Rusev was basically right when he stated that Russian people are the better ones if you are just looking for quantity. And Lana, wow, does she look good! She is also a good talker, so I really like her.

There's always the indies

and then ghosts.

e:
They let them go on last and booked the finish to get the smallest possible fraction of heat it could've gotten. That's probably a pretty good sign that numbers are low and they plan on using this program as their primary excuse

Yes, pretty astounding how the WWE manages to screw new stars over and over and over again, and not only in the main event, but in the midcard too with Cesaro. That was possibly the price for voicing that nobody wants to see Cena and Orton again...
You can probably be thankful that it was not Cena with one of it´s interferences in "Michael Cole Barbeque Attack" style but another possible main eventer, but now the Ambrose/Rollins stuff is over for now at least.

orton...orton...i need you to calm down. you're a bit too hype.

afwalex: y'know Cena usually gives good promos, but he's pretty off tonight
afwalex: "THE FUTURE ISN'T TOMORROW, OR NEXT WEEK, OR NEXT YEAR"
afwalex: y...yes it is, Cena
afwalex: that's kind of the definition of THE FUTURE

It's so nice to see him with face heat again. I hate to say it but he's a waaaaay better bug guy face than heel.

I picked a good night to start watching Raw again. DA BIG GUY makes it all worth it.
