What's the deal with Reigns? I don't watch it, but I get the feeling the people in charge want Reigns to be the face of the company, and the fans don't.

What is about Reigns that the fans dislike? Is it his wrestling ability? Is it his character, does he have no charisma? Or is it something else?

Denver
26-04-2018, 11:24 PM
There are probably 10 better people who should be the face of WWE

LaLaLand

@Alf: That's basically it, well it was during his first major push.

Now he just gets booed for the sake of it I feel even when he delivers 4/5* matches consistently (with the right opponents ie NOT LESNAR).

Alf

I'm gonna have to watch Raw next week to see what's going on and see what talent there is about and see if I can see any potential star to carry the WWE for a new generation of wrestling fans.

Is Raw from Saudi Arabia on Monday?

LaLaLand
26-04-2018, 11:37 PM
No it's in Montreal, Canada.

I'd have thought that they would have stayed for RAW but the "no women" thing is the issue like, there'd be an uproar no doubt (as there is anyway for TGRR) after their whole emphasis on "The Women's Revolution" as of late.

Rubbish PR really... emphasise women as being as good as/better than the guys and then showcase your biggest PPV EVER in a country like SA where women are seen as "less" and are banned from the show...

I don't think Reigns himself is the issue really, he's a pretty solid performer. I'd say most of the dislike towards him comes from the fact Vince has choosen him to be the top guy and forced him down the viewers throat to the expense of other talent who the fans would rather see in his position.

Oh man... So apparently...

Dave Meltzer noted on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that the Prince who wanted to bring the event to Saudi Arabia was having a conversation with Vince McMahon. Apparently the Prince was talking about wrestlers that he'd like to have on the show, and some of the key ones that he mentioned were The Undertaker, The Ultimate Warrior and Yokozuna, not realizing that Warrior and Yokozuna had passed away years ago.

Meltzer said that while it's not confirmed, the word going around is that Sumi was added to the match was because McMahon wanted someone that looked like Yokozuna.

Corey Graves reportedly had heat on him for remarks made during commentary at WWE's Greatest Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

The Observer pointed to how Graves seemed to have remorse or seconds thoughts over the event because of a few cryptic comments he made during the show, indicating that he was having issues with WWE running the Kingdom without the female Superstars due to the culture.

Graves then took to Instagram on Monday of this week, as seen below, and wrote the following on freedom and women's rights:

A drink to remember that no matter how bad WE think we have it, at least our women have rights and we all have freedom of expression. #ifyougetityougetit

According to the Observer, there were people who felt that although his statements were understandable, they should have been made privately. It was also noted that there are people saying that Graves is "more replaceable than he thinks he is."

Well, reportedly...

We previously reported that it looks like John Cena is dating once again and a new report on this situation could really clear things up for us.

Brad Shepard of BodySlam.net reports that an anonymous Hollywood insider has stated to him that a newly single “entertainer/actor” is allegedly hooking up with a member of a reality television show which is believed to be a part of the Total Divas cast and that person is none other than John Cena.

When breaking down all of the possible candidates for Cena’s new supposed love interest there aren’t a lot of Total Divas cast members who aren’t already married or in a relationship. While infidelity isn’t out of the picture, one newly single cast member is Carmella which really makes us wonder if there is a connection between her recent push, the Tampa Florida bar that Cena was recently spotted at, and the fact that the SmackDown Women’s Champion also lives in Tampa. Only time will tell on that one though because this is just informed speculation.

While nothing has been confirmed just yet there are some pretty strong rumors out there that John Cena could be playing the field once again and he’s not straying from the WWE family to do so.

Ronda Rousey might have her next challenger laid out before her, Raw Women’s Champion Nia Jax.

At the 2018 NBC Upfronts, per E! News, Nia Jax is said to have issued a challenge to the “Baddest Woman On The Planet (Jury is out on whether or not Nunez and Holm agree with that moniker)” at this June’s Money In The Bank Pay-Per-View.

When asked, Ronda said “We are very civil and professional ladies, so Nia did just challenge me for Money in the Bank to come after her title, I happily oblige respectfully, so I can sit next to her.”

“I’ve never been in a ring with somebody like Ronda,” Jax told E! News. “She’s one of a kind, so there definitely has to be an alternation to my regimen and I’m looking forward to it.”

WWE has yet to make it official, but it looks like the gauntlet has been thrown.

Big Cass is out once again with an injury (although it could be a work):

Cass appeared to injure his knee working a tag match in Amsterdam with Miz against Daniel Bryan and Tye Dillinger. At one point, Cass drops to his knee on the ring apron and begins limping afterward. He then strikes the ring apron in frustration.

After the match was over, Big Cass was helped to the back by a referee.

The same scene played out in Munich the next day, however, and was filmed for WWE.com — leading many to speculate on the authenticity of the injury. If it is indeed legitimate, this would follow an 8-month recovery from a torn ACL in his left knee that required surgery.

Has been dropped from his MITB qualifier on SD! so now it's Bryan vs. Hardy instead.

According to PWInsider, the company has informed its international broadcasting partners that starting with June 17th’s Money in the Bank, their PPV events will start at 7 PM ET with a Kickoff show likely starting at 6 PM, if they stick around.

The site adds that Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, Money in the Bank, SummerSlam and Survivor Series shows could run even longer.

The plan on extending their events for an additional hour comes as a means of filling the card with as much talent as possible. Last month’s Backlash event served as the first WWE co-branded PPV show, which lasted over three hours.

According to The Wrestling Observer, Toni Storm has signed a UK contract with WWE, not a developmental one, granting her a similar contract like wrestlers Pete Dunne, Tyler Bate, and Trent Seven – allowing her to still work on the Indies when not booked with WWE.

Oh my Godddddddddddd this is gonna be amazing! If you're not familiar with her, she's basically THE best female wrestler in the world. YouTube her, seriously.

According to Tokyo Sports, STARDOM’s Io Shirai will be heading to the WWE shortly after her final show with Japanese promotion on June 17th. Shirai recently lost her Wonder of Stardom title to Momo Watanabe but the Observer reports that the title change had nothing to do with WWE and Stardom did not know she was leaving until Sunday.

Shirai was first contacted by WWE in October 2016 and later accepted a deal in May 2017. However, she failed to pass WWE’s medical examining causing the company to revoked their offer a month later.

F4WOnline adds that besides Shirai and Toni Storm, who also signed a U.K. contract with WWE, the WWE has made offers to other Stardom wrestlers and with the Mae Young Classic this summer, the Stardom Five-Star tournament has lost several wrestlers who were originally set to be part of it.

Women's Division

The female Rumble has ignited my love for wrestling again. I thought it was terrific (seeing oldies like Molly Holly, Jacqueline (my all time fave), Trish, Lita, etc. brought back a flowing river of nostalgia). Everything that has followed since has been enjoyable too. Loved the female Elimination Chamber match, and Charlotte vs Asuka was incredible.

Carmella and Nia both being champions at the moment is a choice. I ADORE Carmella (this time two months ago she was my favourite women's wrestler, no question), but I'm not feeling her as a champion at the moment. She's become borderline irritating with the shrieking, and I don't know if she's supposed to be taken seriously or not. Nia is a tad boring, though I'm glad she won the belt from Alexa at Wrestlemania. I was looking for a change from Alexa and Charlotte to new champions, but I'm ready for something different with both the Raw and Smackdown titles already. Carmella was great as Ms Money in the Back, but I think she should lose the title soon (which sucks because I'm so happy she won it). Nia needs to turn heel if she hasn't already. I'm confused about her character development, at the moment.

Ronda Rousey, who I had no idea about before the Rumble, really turned out to be amazing at Wrestlemania. I had low expectations because of the hype that surrounded her, but she blew me away (as did Stephanie tbh). I don't know what to make of her receiving a title shot already, but she needs help with her mic skills, lmao.

I'm beyond excited for the women's Money in the Bank match. I'm not sure who I'm rooting for, but I do love the random inclusion of Lana. Naomi; I think she's one of the best technical wrestlers in the women's division. Alexa and Charlotte; I get why they were chosen to be in the match because their prestige, but I hope they don't win. Ember; excited to see more of her potential. Natalya; never really been much of a fan, would've preferred Mickie James or Dana Brookes in her place. Becky; another I don't personally love, but respect as an athlete because she's key to the women's evolution. Sasha; one of my favourites, though I do understand why people call her overrated. Personally, I hope Ember wins.

Men's Division

I've begun to pay more attention to the men's division. I think Baron Corbin is my favourite, but I'm not sure why. I think he deserves a push. Finn Balor's dreamy because he's a gay icon and the triple threat match with him, Rollins and The Miz was another highlight. Can't say I'm much of a fan of Roman Reigns. I don't enjoy him in the ring at all, he's quite slow and never entertains or impresses me. I'd take Lesnar over him any day, even though he's part-time. Other favourites in the male division: Sami Zayn (:love:), Kevin Owens and Rusev.

Also, The Greatest Royal Rumble was cack, aside from Titus flying under the ring.
