It's WRESTLING. Every wrestler is corny. "Corny" is not a good argument. Jake wasn't corny. Savage wasn't corny. Foley wasn't corny. Hell, Cody Rhodes played a more convincing crazy guy when he was "deformed". Jake managed to not be corny. If you're going to tell me Savage or Foley weren't...heh. |

Whenever I see a gimmick like Wyatt I just want to see them go through one of their taunt things and gets stomped as they do it. Taker and Kane are the only exceptions

I'll give Bray credit, while I'm still not sold on him as a wrestler, he's at least done EVERYTHING he can to distance himself from his father and grandfather. Only the best 2nd and 3rd generation wrestlers can effectively do that.

Taker and Kane are the only exceptions I wanna see a guy elbow drop Bray as he does his spider walk, and a crafty face attack the Family as a whole when they do the "pose over their fallen victim" thing from behind. Would be make for two great spots if they happened. |

Lets face it pro wrestling itself is corny. Yup. And that's exactly why I love it. Wrestling is at its finest when supernatural entities are at work and borderline lunatics are screaming things and pointing to the sky. |

I've never bought in fully with the Wyatt shtick, but it's clear to me that Bray has a very impressive handle on his character. Now his in-ring work on the other hand..... Bingo. The promos are fine and whatever but all it leads to are Wyatt matches. No thanks. NO THANKS. You hate everything anyway, haha. |

Bray and his crew are basically what WWE needs right now: Outlandish villains for us to direct our hatred towards. The thing is, it's hard to direct my hate towards them becuase it's so refreshing to see a real gimmick. Maybe it will be easier if the tide shifts and just having a gimmick isn't special in itself. |

I've loved the butcher apron from the first time I saw it. It just put the creepy factor of the character up to a whole new level.

Would be make for two great spots if they happened. [Wyatts pose over Kofi's unconscious body] [Sheamus appears out of nowhere and brogue kicks them] Sheamus: "HEY FELLAS, I'M BACK." [Looks at bodies] Sheamus:"Okay who are those guys I just kicked?" [Credits roll over the image of the raw roster with hands on their hips going "Oh, that wacky Sheamus!"] |

NOT corny? No. I will say this though: The new attire is way better than the Hawaiian shirt and white pants. |

You named Macho Man and Mick Foley, two of the corniest wrestlers of their respective eras. Nothing wrong with embracing the corn. |

What impressed me most about that is the production AROUND Bray. Particularly when the camera flipped upside down and the setup of the barn makes it look like the roof is some freaking look steps up to an altar.

Jake was corny as well, they all have been; that's no insult, rasslin is corny, and hilarious, and awesome.
