Iron helps us play!

The big problem whenever there's a story involving Steph picking on someone is that there will never be redemption or revenge. Maybe the storyline gets dropped and the person moves on, but there's no such thing as storyline comeuppance against Steph.

I've really come to hate the Superman punch. I'm no pugilist, but I can't imagine that throwing a hook has more power when you leave your feet. If it was a jumping straight punch, sure, but he jumps up and then punches from right to left.

So if I'm hearing you correctly, what we need is the Reigns Express this summer?

That Triple H promo was really taking back to the first brand split and reminding me why I like(d) Smackdown much better than Raw.

Yes.

Re: Austin Aries.

I don't know how strict they are with it now. I'm not sure Neville is only 205.

Braun already feels bigger than this match.

I don't think Royce and Kay are anywhere near ready yet. Their character work has improved but they look pretty weak in the ring still.

Part of that is due to Charlotte being such a natural heel and part of it is that despite some awkwardness, I feel like Dana's got some likability.

I'd like to see the New Day stay together as a stable but have them all pursue singles titles. Xavier Woods could bring some more excitement to the CW division.

Maybe it's because they plan to push him as a face, but I really miss Austin Aries being referred to as "The Greatest Man Who Ever Lived."

I wonder if Dana's maybe turn was due to her recent participation in the Arnold Classic. WWE loves that kind of outside attention and I could see her getting a mini-push due to that. I find it interesting that a woman who made a name for herself in fitness/bodybuilding, they don't play her up more as a powerhouse.

I really don't care who the Commissioners or GMs are anymore. The whole idea of it is old. Stephanie especially is tired. It also makes the company seem incompetent. Here's how:

I went to a live show in December and was booing him for fun. I had my kids with me and when I see wrestling live, I enjoy being a heel fan. For the record, I think he's a talented guy. The problem is, his characters is very inconsistent. One day he's a smirking smartass and the next week he's super serious and…

Not that WCW was free from problems but you had years there in the mid 90s where the title scene included a good sized number of guys who were legit contenders. At one point you had Hogan, Savage, Sting, Luger, the Giant, Flair, Nash, Goldberg, and DDP as guys who could conceivably win the belt on any given night.

While the era of the heels and faces all having separate locker rooms and the like was fun, the best stuff that wrestling in general seems to be doing most of the time is when they treat it as more of a sport or a competition. The CWC had people displaying face or heel mannerisms but it was presented as if it were a…

Braun Strowman is just firing on all cylinders. I'm not a fan of him eating a clean loss to Reigns or backing away from the Undertaker last week, but the guy has gotten really good this year. He deserves a most improved talent Slammy for this year.

He sounds like every 'misunderstood genius' whose work in a creative writing class was given something other than universal praise.
