WWE Musings

How’s It Going Enthusiasts?   Well, it was quite the SummerSlam this year, wasn’t it 😉 I was expecting surprises but none quite like Brock Lesnar returning. Though, kinda par for the WWE course it definitely makes it a bit uncomfortable to participate. However, if John Cena ever wanted someone “big and bad” to slay before retiring, Lesnar is it. Yet, that’s not all that happened so let’s touch on the high points before we contemplate the giant “ ? ”   I think for me, Night 1 wins just due to lack of controversy. Or at least, the controversy was scripted. Night 2 makes going forward very hazy but it’s not impossible. As for Match of the Nights, most liked the main events in both cases. CM Punk vs. GUNTHER was just what I expected it to be. Punk getting glory for 2 minutes before Lord Seth Rollins comes in to show him how it’s really gonna be. That’s great for the Future.   Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena was great, in my opinion. It had all the ups and downs. I was...

How’s It Going, Enthusiasts! Well, I hope.  Goodness, RAW got some fallout all right out of SummerSlam and it appears to have come in the form of the fans.  We had ourselves a tag team match last night, one I feel WWE Creative would have thought a good premise for a contest yet the only problem, the crowd wasn’t having it.  We had John Cena and Roman Reigns paired up with The Miz and Samoa Joe for a shits & giggles tag team match.  Though the match was what it was, the crowd let it be known that they did not care for either “Face” of the company.  They were quite rude even for a New York crowd and to be honest, their detest for the scenario rivaled a scene of open rebellion.  For the most part, the crowd comes around for Cena to take the win but this display marks a potentially larger issue for the WWE.  The conflict between “What’s best for business” and what the Fans want has been greatly contested for years and last night seemed to ma...

How Goes It, Enthusiasts! So, SummerSlam came and went and I have to say it felt a little predictable.  I wasn’t really surprised with any of the outcomes.  If anything I was more surprised at the match order and lack of content.  I didn’t think The Usos and The New Day would get Kick-off duty.   I also thought Shane McMahon would get more involved in the fisticuffs but I suppose that’s “unprofessional”.  I wasn’t remotely shocked at Brock “Gun Jack” Lesnar coming back from the dead to retain his title but that tactic is getting old.  Got him looking like James Brown out there now.  Just when you think he’s done he comes tearing back, does a half split and bounces back up into the ring.  I didn’t really mind the Main Event just thought they could have gone a little more nuts.  Too much of the place was still left standing.  What do you think, Enthusiasts?  Does WWE Creative need to get shaken up with some new blood? ...
