yeah it's a fair point, I'd like to think the SD writers know their characters well enough to make them different though…..especially with feuds cross-cutting and opening up new dimensions…

real talk
the talent involved in that feud would also push the other tag teams to deliver! I just want a Slater push now

a women's EC match would be great experience and also like you say hide the greenness….I wonder if they feel the stipulation is too much to be done twice in one night? only reason i can see for not doing it

SD really have such a bad hand dealt and they do amazingly with it! 2 weeks to build story lines post the Rumble and they are going lightening speed….yes it would be beneficial for Corbin/Naomi/AA to have more time to develop their roles in whatever feud they are in, but this in at the deep end philosophy may just…

great point! i always found Olaf entertaining and a "villain" but not evil or scary in any way. he is a genuine antagonist who is equal parts sinister and bafoon

that is next level heel work!!! #absoluteBliss

insane to think this is the second year running he won't be in it…..i get the story line perspective…..but surely you have your best performers in that match

the crowd was dead and too far down the extreme end of wha the UK crowd was like….you need a lively crowd, but one that reacts to the work going on and not to entertain themselves

praying Kitty comes back for a long term rather than a one off

agreed; a great way to decipher the reason for its success…..it's a very good procedural that is elevated by JLM especially

He is great on the mic no doubt! But he hasn't been as fired up as he has been against AJ and Ambrose or here for a long time

HE??????
EDIT; clearly had too little sleep LOL

the mic work and ring work would be the best ever!!! I agree; heel v heel can work when the characters are right, and these two are very different, plus SD knows their stars inside out

a slow-burn approach would be interesting (i was hoping New Day would have that as they resorted to sneaky tactics to eat the record but no such luck) I think there's a heel-psychology thing where they have them wear down and beat their opponent through force rather than with high-flying, crowd pumping moves (maybe…

Carmellsworth is all sorts of wrong…..and it just works perfectly

My god Cena can cut a promo!!! he is really stepping up, and I pray to anyone who listens that he doesn't win at Rumble….the best thing they can do right now is subvert expectations; have him and Taker meet but not with the title or with a Rumble winning spot; just two titans pushed together as they have nothing else…

I get both viewpoints, but I def side on the pro side here (not saying Bli$$ed-Off isn't though…)
I found the Ziggler progression much more enticing as he hasn't simply flipped a switch and become a whole new character….he is the same guy he always was….just takes a few more ruthless opportunities (to me that is great…

totally agree; it seems different now with crowds becoming more smarky and cheering legit talent over character (Owens and Styles) while people like Ziggler (and Ambrose had it towards the end of his title run) get the brunt of this
Hopefully SD continues to play to the superstars and not pre-set roles and allow…

Heel Ziggler is exactly what was needed and actually played at the right time, had they done it sooner you may have just seen the same result but with boos rather than indifference from the crowd. Now you can really buy into him losing it and taking it out on his friends….plus as the review states, these are great…

Renee is such a great journalist to have as she bridges the gap needed between superstars in the backstage segments. she really sells the situation well and as we all know more Renee is a good thing :)
The Miz needs to enter the title pic strait after his feud with Ambrose as him and Styles would be electric (plus we…
