Warned Enzo only has himself to blame.

Rusev really should be main eventing by now I'd love to see him as Universal Champion.
Why? He'd be a terrible World Champion.

So Rollins has waited 3 months to get mad at Triple H for costing him the title? Creative at their very best!

Glad that as we head in to 2017 we get both The Big Show and Mark Henry back..yay! Mark Henry vs Titus was a match I have waited years to see...oh how it disappointed lol.

Also despite Banks and Charlotte putting on some great matches I really wanted the feud to stop but I think we all know who will be winning the match at Roadblock...oh well at least Banks will win the title back on a Raw show again.

Rusev would be amazing. Rusev is, by quite some margin, one of the best things WWE has going for it at the moment.

Rusev should be in the title picture!

Rusev should ideally be on SD and feuding with AJ Styles for the title.

Yes I think we all know who will then regain the title 2 weeks after the PPV on Raw.

I was unimpressed by his feud with Cena the other year when we had to watch 4 PPV matches between the two.

Rusev is another one who would be perfect on Smackdown because there's more room for him to be a star. I think he's got the charisma and humour to be a babyface chasing a coward heel like AJ but I think he'd also be great built as a monster all year to fight Undertaker.

I actually think Strowman is very entertaining. He probably needs a lot more work to be able to do main event matches but they've got a good thing going with him squashing people right now. They just need to pair him with good workers on the house shows to improve him.
I don't mind either Strowman or Corbin. So far they've been booked solidly, IMO.

WWE has gone the other way. It used to be the likes of Dynamite, Savage, Bret, Shawn, Jericho, Eddie, Hardy,Punk etc who brought realism or athleticism or excitement to a roster loaded with muscle heads. Now with a WWE channelled hybrid video game/indie style and seemingly everybody doing dives, it's weirdly refreshing to see guys who you feel could kill the other guy!

It's the millennial thing. I already spoke about this in General Discussion, it's these young men and women, they think they know everything, they want women and anyone who's remotely different in charge of everything, the world has to have open borders, anyone and everyone and should be allowed to stay, we have to feed the world and everything else. It's the way young people are. They think they know it all and they don't know it all.

And you got it right, it's the vide game generation. It's people that grew up on video games and 98% of the time they have no control of their bodies when they do all those high flying moves and diving through the ropes, all it takes is a few inches off and they're in a wheelchair for the rest of their life. For some reason they all love the diving through the rope thing, all it takes is one of their toes to catch that middle rope and that's it, party's over, head first neck first onto the mat.


I never watched the TLC event on Sunday because I knew what to expect and the thing that makes TLC a bit harder to watch is the wrestlers do it to themselves. It's one thing to dive through the ropes or over the ropes or do a moonsault where you can't control your body, you're going on instinct and practice and you hope everytime you do it that it's gonna work out ok but when you know the whole thing is a work and you start bringing in chairs and tables and ladders and you're allowing people to hit you with them that's a whole other thing and especially with the way these younger wrestlers work now, everyone uses the ropes, everyone climbs the ladders, they do everything so when the opponent moves out the way, you know the person hitting that ladder or table is basically hurting themselves, they're deliberately throwing themselves into metal and wood, it's deliberately hurting yourself. I know people rag on me about the 80's Golden Era and the 90's Attitude Era but this was never needed in wrestling. And then you talk about realism and guys like Rusev bringing an element of realism to the show, I don't even think Rusev would be doing all that stuff and if he did do it I think it would look awkward and weird. I don't think it would look good at all.

And I try and think back to the 80s and 90s and the big stars of the day and I can't imagine them doing it. For many people the first Ladder match they ever would have seen would have been Shawn vs Razor and even in that match, there was not that many spots with the ladder and the ones that were used didn't make it look like a show. When you see a TLC match now or a Ladder match or Table match, it looks like a show. It's so dragged out with the getting the weapons, then putting them in the ring and then they do the false spots and eventually they get to the finish. It looks like a show rather than a match where they make the weapon part of the match. Even after Razor and Shawn brought that match into the WWF, if you look at the other matches they did, they were all believable, I remember Austin vs the McMahons at King of the Ring and everything Austin did was believable and it was a brawl style match where the ladder only really came into play at the very end. It wasn't until Edge and Christian and The Hardyz started working together that it became this big spectacle.

Rusev will never be a monster when hes getting beat by Sami Zayn.

Seriously Dave has Rusev offended you or something cause you genuinely have some sort of grudge against him?

Raw was awful, I'm not interested in any of the Women division feuds on Raw especially Sasha/Charlotte or the Rusev/Lana vs. Big Cas/Enzo feud either.

Hopefully, Smackdown is good tonight and I'm hoping Alexa doesn't lose the Title either.

If Rusev had gone on to wrestle Miz at Survivor Series I would have rooted the shit out of him to take the IC title.

As for your question Sinister he's a heel FFS WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BOO HIM!

So everyone who attends a Raw that he wrestles on they must have a grudge for him because hes a Russian Heel that we are supposed to boo and dislike him. Jeez what is wrong with wrestling fans these days? You boo the heel and cheer the face thats even if youre a wrestling fan.

Yes Dave Rusev is a Russian heel even though he refers himself as the Bulgarian brute.

TBH I was more focused on what Lana was wearing during that hotel room segment Rusev is one lucky git.
