Finally finished Superstar Billy Graham on Jim Ross's podcast. Amazing interview, might be the best I've heard on Jim's show. Check it out. Billy sounds like he's doing a lot better.

They didn't build Reigns at all. That was the whole fucking problem.

A stupid us vs. them mentality coming from stooges who live in a bubble. I think the hernia hurt him really bad. It cost him a few months that could have been used to build him.
As of now, they should start building him. Give him a high profile feud with Sheamus. |

In all reality, the months Reigns did miss wouldn't have helped much. I think the best course of action would've been to plug him into a feud with Rusev going towards mania. Two young guns kicking the shit outta each other. Granted, the main event was done beautifully, but I feel like Reigns has lost a ton of steam.

I've stated before that Reigns has done nothing as a singles competitor. Every top guy has had an arduous climb to the top, wrought with memorable feuds, secondary title wins, and pivotal moments. We didn't get that at all with Reigns.
It was like reading a book, and the first few chapters were good, but then you turn the page and it's the last page of the book and you're like "what the fuck". It's so blatantly forced, and bad that I don't understand how so many of these people from JR to Jericho, can look at the situation and not say "baw gawd, that's awful". Are they on the take, or what? |

Would explain why the WWE quickly dropped Ziggler's post-SS push since they didn't want to change the Rumble plans and also didn't want that rub to be too huge. Same for Dean's push at the time likely just being a placeholder for what was meant for Reigns. |

See, I actually think that those two moments would have helped leaps and bounds. There was a ton of emotion involved in both those matches, and that's what fans get attached to quickly. Emotion. And it's what Reigns' actual rise has been completely lacking in. Knowing that, I actually thing everything would have been alright had he not gotten injured.
But he did get injured. And they went with him anyway, even though they had a guy in the wings, who the fans were 100% behind, who could fill in while they rebuild Reigns. |

Although the big difference being Ryback gradually pissing people off backstage by being too wreckless in the ring. Could have played a role why his big push got deflated by Mania and the post-Mania Cena jobber feud. |

ANd none of the Rybackaholics will ever admit this, but a part of the reason Ryback was so over in his feud with Punk, was because Punk was such a god damn good heel at that time. I'm not even one of these Punk Worshippers who think he's the greatest ever. He's not, and he was never the right guy to be "THE guy" as he wanted to be. But my god was he ever an amazing heel from 2012-2013. Just made you want to punch him right in his shit eating grin, every time he opened his mouth. I see Ryback as one of those guys who is fun to watch kick the shit out of some cowardly heels, win an IC or tag title now and then, and once in a great while challenge for the world title, at a minor PPV, when you need to buff up your champ a bit with a clean win over a hoss. |

scientific match? Maybe I'm thinking it really differently but a "something on a pole" battle royale sounds like a really bad idea. |
