Am I the only one who doesn't get what they are doing with Curtis Axel at all? I get that they were setting up Heyman screwing Punk, but I see this setting up for Punk vs. Brock, not Punk vs. Axel, who no one respects.

He lost all credibility the first night he was on Raw when Triple H cut the promo on him saying to shut up because the adults were talking, referring to HHH and Heyman. It literally cut out Axel's legs from minute one. Instead of being a ball of fire like he would need to be to make up for it, he has won most if not all of his matchs by screw jobs, count outs and outside interference. They've made him a weasel who no one buys as deserving of the IC title he already holds, let alone being a main eventer.

Trips and Stephanie have really been burying people as of late. There was a couple segments a few weeks ago where Stephanie basically buried the entire Divas division.

I don't see how that would be a problem. It's not...I don't know what Drew is talking about. The Divas division is 2 people right now and has been for a while...yet somehow WWE got E! to create a Divas TV show that appears to be just as wretched as everything else that is on E!. I say put the Divas division away once and for all. It's like when WCW had the six man tag titles back in the early 90s and only two teams were fighting for them each week. While I enjoyed watching the Freebirds take on Big Josh, Dustin Rhodes and the Z-Man as much as the next guy, you can tell when a title is a joke. That's where we are at here.

Yeah idk what I'm talking about either, lol. Was just funny to see Steph bury both the top Diva heel AJ and the top Diva face Kaitlyn in a 2 minute segment.

Yeah I think they are running the storyline where HHH takes over power of the company from Vince. Butting heads against one another.

Last night was one of the better Raws in a long time...the Heyman/Punk/Brock promo was amazing, there was a 25 minute RVD-Jericho match and Daniel Bryan gets the main event at Summerslam. Hard to top that on free TV.

I was blown away by the Jericho/RVD match tbh. I didn't expect RVD to have much left in the tank anymore after being so non caring in TNA but I was wrong. He didn't look half as gassed as the Rock did after 5 minutes in the ring on his return. Gotta say I just don't see how Vince doesn't see the payoff of pushing Daniel Bryan. He is the most over guy in the company and is one of their top merchandise sellers so let the summer of Danielson commence!!!

Face vs Face main event. I know they'd never do it but imagine a Cena heel turn.

They better not do some bullshit Bryan heel turn. Agreed. There's enough heels right now. They don't need to turn the most over guy in the WWE heel.

I've heard they were talking a Bryan heel turn but I believe it's a mistake

They'll never turn Cena heel...it just won't happen. He might be the most polarizing character in wrestling on screen, but he is the sport's biggest ambassador off camera. His charity work alone guarantees that he will be a face forever (he far and away holds the record for the Make-A-Wish Foundations Wishes, granting 2 to 3 a week according to reports). They aren't going to suddenly turn that kind of a guy into a heel, no matter how much it might shake things up.

That's where we are at here.I find these statements to be beyond hilarious given the subject matter of the thread. I know, I know, it's a guilty pleasure. I was there too... when I was 13 years old. Then I figured out if I wanted to have sex with real life girls I would need to drop the pro wrestling, video games, and GI Joes... at least, when everyone else was looking.

lol I legitimately figured he's some bro-dog who thinks putting things like video games and wrestling down while claiming to be swimming in women is cool...at which point I moved on with my life.

Well I think Stephanie and HHH will ultimately be running the company sooner rather than later. Raw this past Monday certainly was the best show in about 5 years.
