Adam Rose was a big hit in NXT but has since fallen flat after his debut on the main roster. Why do you think this is...Different theme music? Too much emphasis on the bunny? And what do you think can be done to turn his character around?
I really think it’s a good example of how some things can work in a small arena, among the same group of fans show after show, but not on the national scale when an act is in front of a different crowd every week. Rose is a novelty act that really doesn’t have a lot of staying power.
What is WWE's obsession with having PPV rematches the following night on RAW? As a fan, why would I turn into the PPV when I can see the exact same matches on tv the next day? Could you please explain how this makes good business sense?
As big a priority as getting network subs is, the revenue that they generate from the Sunday shows pales in comparison to what they make in TV revenue. So the primary beast that they need to feed is NBC Universal and their other TV partners as they bring in the most money to the company.
If the slacks-wearing, shirtless/maskless, Coporate Kane is a regular-type wrestler character, and the "Devil's Favorite Demon" version is much more devastating and monstrous, why not just ALWAYS have him be THAT version of Kane? They've already established that it's pretty much as simple as him just putting the mask back on (well first, he has to make an indirect reference to it, and then glare at it for a bit, but you get the point), so why not?
Well, that would be logical thinking but to be fair, Kane is in his mid-forties now so you can’t fault WWE for trying to give a guy that has been a great company man a less taxing role as get gets older.
After hearing the roar of the crowd when Dean Ambrose opened up RAW it's obvious that he can be the next big thing. My question is do you think Ambrose can be the answer to fill in the spot for CM Punk? I'm talking about in terms of rebellious, don't take crap, craziness, and hopefully soon better promo skills. I know bringing up Punk is old and played out but he was great to watch and listen too. I just hope Ambrose could be that next person.
I already like Ambrose’s promos. I don’t think he is the next Punk, I think he is the first Ambrose and yes he could fill a big role if they allow him too. He is different and fresh. I hope they give him ever chance to succeed.
I was at Raw in Memphis last night - decent show, though nothing like the pre-WM show here with Hogan and Daniel Bryan. I was surprised the Wyatt Family and Heyman were not around. The show needed some more star power, despite Dean Ambrose being fabulous. (FYI, half of the upper level was tarped off, otherwise it was full). Question: Why doesn't WWE do more to improve the fan experience at shows? At Grizzlies games, they shoot t-shirts into the crowd, have all sorts of contests, honor local celebrities and dogooders, show fans in the crowd, and much more. Why doesn't WWE do any fan-interactive things during shows instead of just showing ad after ad ad infinitum? Seems like they could be doing more to keep their fans happy, and entertained, since 3.5 hours is a looooong time for everyone to sit through a show. Also, do you ever see them coming up with a way we could hear the announcers live while attending a show? Would help keep us awake..
WWE thinks that being at a TV taping is already a great experience so they don’t feel the need to add bells and whistles. I really don’t think they need to either. I think if they just write more exciting shows, that will be all it takes to make things better. And you would really want to be subjected to JBL at a live show? To me that would be one of the perks of being their live, not having to listen to the announcers.
