GDT: WWE ROYAL RUMBLE (January 24, 2016) -- WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH ‎- Pt. 2

[Blitzkrug]

Yes, yes i am.

The marks are missing the point literally everyone is trying to make; It's all about Roman.

Triple H is the best heel the company has? Why is that? Is it because they fed every last one of them to Reigns? Or outright refuse to give a bigger role like Owens?

Again. Triple H is not the problem. Triple H in the context of being used as a tool to get Reigns over, undercutting the entire roster in the process is the problem. Come mania he will job, we will still have no stars made since Lesnar is almost assuredly going over Wyatt and all the signings will bounce around the midcard, all for a ****ing Samoan Lex Luger.

TL;DR - Triple H is a band-aid that will put us in the same ****ing spot we were in before the rumble. Nothing changes.

They have literally fed 4 guys to Roman for way too long. Four solid heels and they've made them look like lower midcarders.

When Cena was there?

Are you telling me Bryan was more over then Cena?

When Bryan was main eventing WM30 and doing things like this:



Yes. Absolutely.

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

Where did the Rock even come from? You are claiming "the look" gets people over.

Danial Bryan one of many examples that prove this isn't true. He isn't just a hot spot. Come on now with this. He hasn't wrestled in a year and is still more over then anyone on the current roster and its not even close.

Then Lesnar?

Omg.....

 

[Deen]

So... What's so great about AJ Styles?

 

[Serac]

When Cena was there?

Are you telling me Bryan was more over then Cena?

Hoo boy
Not sure if serious

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

When Bryan was main eventing WM30 and doing things like this:



Yes. Absolutely.

Yet, Cena sells how much merch more then the next person?

Or is fan reaction at an arena being "over"?

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

I just have come to the conclusion many dont know what being "over" truly means.....

 

[The Gongshow]

 

[RockLobster]

Reaching how? By stating the obvious?
Bryan had a hot spot. Rock has bed on top for over a decade. If you want to put Bryan on a certain level dont expect somebody to counter wuth reality. "Reaching" is trying to make somebody something they are not. Bryan has hot for about a year. Rock pushes ratings if advertised to this day.

How is that reaching?

Just keep digging...

 

[BonMorrison]

Or is fan reaction at an arena being "over"?

At the time of that segment, Bryan was #2 in merchandise so couple that in with reactions like that from live audiences. Bryan was more over.

You must be new here, you can't beat all of us in an argument that you're already lost.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

So... What's so great about AJ Styles?

The titatron told me he's phenomenal.

 

[Blitzkrug]

I correct my previous statement; Marks get out REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[Serac]

Yet, Cena sells how much merch more then the next person?

You realize WWE has a tendency to understock certain people (especially if they get a larger cut of sales, like Lesnar)
And more often than not, Cena shirts are available round the clock, with little to no stockage of other performers, such as Bryan (Especially in kiddy sizes)

 

[Emperoreddy]

Holy **** that is glorious.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Daniel Bryan was undoubtedly the most over superstar in the entire company from about 2013 onwards. It's not even close. His reactions combined with his merchandise sales (which were really damn close to John Cena's according to Meltzer, if not, higher at certain periods) put him there. Crowd reactions... not even close.

I've never seen a poster bury themselves so quickly. lmao

 

[chaosrevolver]

When Cena was there?

Are you telling me Bryan was more over then Cena?

Is that even a question?

Kids and women liked Cena...almost everyone liked Bryan. Men, indy fans, kids, women...etc.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

Can we take a moment to discuss what the **** ambrose's clothesline was called?

Wacky line?
Wacky. Line.
You couldn't come up with anything better than than, mitchell cole?

While also having significantly less merchandise than Cena. Let's not forget just how the WWE kept Cena's merch numbers up...by cycling through so many color combinations faster than normal.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Punk also went umpteen pay per views in a row, as the champion, without main eventing until like the 10th one, before he dropped to Dwayne.

But we can debate this is more about Vince and politics, and not Punk (Summer of Punk was one of the best things going in recent years).

 

[BonMorrison]

Is there a way to lockdown the Wrestling forum to just like - us consistent masochistic posters and a handful of the not so consistent ones?

 

[Cubs2024wildcard]

Just keep digging...

Sure will.

See, I am old school. And in wrestling, the name of the game is and always will be money.

Nobody has toppled the cash cow that is John Cena in this era. Bryan can lead the crowd to do the wave, if it dont make Vince money, he isnt being pushed. End of. Reigns is actually the number two guy in merchandise sales. Do you see the trend?

 

[chaosrevolver]

I just have come to the conclusion many dont know what being "over" truly means.....

Bryan is responsible for a bigger rating spike than anyone else on that roster.

Interesting how since he got hurt, the ratings have continued to drop eh? Despite the fact that Brock, Cena, many old legends, etc. have been around.

I heard them give it a name but I didn't actually hear the name. If that's the name... oh sweet Jesus.

It was something like that. I cringed. I love Dean, but god that move needs to go.
