All jokes aside, it's a great book. A lot more to do with Fozzy and his family, plus other outside work.

She wasn't great, but she wasn't bad either. But you could tell she "got it" enough that in time she could of been really good. That combined with her unique look, and I think WWE lost out.

I remember doing the multiple head smash on top of the ladder was cool, heard the noise like 10 times, never was able to posistion it on the bell though correctly.

I think if they didn't mess her around near the end (which pushed her closer to quitting, to focus on her clothing brand) and put more focus and thought into matches and storylines in the Divas Division, instead of making Total Divas the centre of the division, she would have stayed, and we would currently have a very interesting Divas Division that would consist of Kaitlyn, AJ, Natalya, Tamina, Layla, Emma, Naomi and sure why not, Paige. Instead, we currently have Paige vs AJ going what looks to be back and forth, while The Bella Twins (which has just occurred to me that they're "the stars" of Total Divas) get a main event-esq storyline with the boss and her husband Triple H. The rest of the Divas are doing absolutely nothing at all. I long for the days of the 2002-2006 Divas Division. Back then, you could tell the writers actually cared about it. |

There were a few Diva storylines last month, AJ vs Paige, Brie vs Steph, Cameron vs Naomi, Layla/Summer Rae

the shitty reality is that they can barely develop the men's division, let alone put together a solid women's division. sometimes it feels like they try to be as mediocre as they can.

How did Eva go from blow kisses to the crowd to holding her neck because it hurt?

Watch NXT Takeover. 2 hour show with plenty of great stuff including the Natalya vs Charlotte Flair title match that blows away any Divas match I've seen in years. You'd pretty much have to go to Shimmer or Japan to find anything better.

Well as far as Japanese stuff goes that thread I made a little while ago has a link to probably the largest archive of puroresu you'll find, with descriptions for each match.

Not quite excited for that match, dunno what else they can do with the story.....Hope they don't just give it back to Cena.

I'm sure something will come along to make the story worthwhile. Whether it is some sort of gimmick (perhaps John Cena requests some sort of extreme rules, since that's how he beat Brock last time?), or even some sort of submission stipulation. Would the WWE have John Cena give up for the first time in ten years to really put Lesnar over as a killer? Maybe The Undertaker appears in Cena's corner?

Kaitlyn, just for her character, would add a lot to the Divas Division, given her history with AJ Lee. A Triple Threat feud with AJ and Paige would be a lot of fun.

I'm slightly intrigued with the match only because I'm interested in what the purpose ends up being. I can't see any way Cena wins it back but I also can't see any way they can possibly put Brock over more. Just repeating the same result and having him squash him again would be silly. I don't know. Can't think of a realistic outcome.
I'd say a submission match where Cena "never gives up" and passes out but we just saw that. |

I'm now fearing who they're gonna put over Lesnar at WrestleMania though. I have a feeling it's going to be an enormous waste.

I had a huge reply typed out in regards to who challenges Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Title at WrestleMania 31, but it got deleted, so I'll just say that it should be Daniel Bryan. The Rock's perfect WrestleMania opponent is Bray Wyatt. Roman Reigns can face Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins in a Triple Threat Match with Rollins' MITB title shot on the line because it's #Best for Business. If you want Triple H in a one-on-one match, then they should beg CM Punk to come back with a reduced schedule as "The Great Emancipator" of WWE, providing he is ready to return for a bit, and face Triple H. In the weeks heading up to WrestleMania, Punk would be able to work with Seth Rollins and the like, since he's in Triple H's camp.
In a parallel to the Punk vs. Triple H feud, you could also have AJ Lee feuding with Stephanie McMahon and someone Steph would be backing for Divas Champion in a program with better acting than Steph vs. Brie. Kharma would be my preferred choice. To get the other female talent on the main card, you can have another Vickie Guerrero Invitational, which can be won by Paige. This is in addition to the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. The whole show begins to take form. Round out the card with John Cena vs. Cesaro, Randy Orton vs. Kenta (if you want to make him a big deal) and a TLC Match between The Usos and The Wyatt Family (with some more teams being added if you want). In the WrestleMania thread, I suggested that Jack Swagger & Stardust form a fun mismatched face team, whilst Dolph Ziggler & Kofi Kingston play your more athletic face team. I'm not sure how long they plan to keep Kevin Steen in developmental, but Sami Zayn and him have prior history together, so they could conceivably make an impact as a face team before then, but I'd save that. Have Sami Zayn face The Miz on the main card if there is time, or on the Kickoff show if not. |
