He's such a loser, birds wait on him to leave the house so they can crap on him!
He's such a loser, the IRS has a specific department just to audit him annually!
He's such a loser, his high school yearbook said "Least Likely to Succeed"!
…
There's being subtle, and then there's being WWE. I don't know what Mike did (or didn't do) to earn this gimmick exactly, but holy crap, it was already difficult to watch when it was just Maria being unbearable to him months ago. I know they kept playing this up on 205 Live where it didn't matter what Mike did, it wouldn't be good enough for Maria's hoity standards, but 205 Live doesn't count in WWE canon aside from "He do the good wrestle stuff, he did!" What I watched tonight was just... diabolical.
Look; good on them, earning the most money they'll ever get in their lives, but they're stuck there for the next 5 years. On top of that, this didn't help Ricochet's credibility out, even though it was brushed off instantly after, having gone from competing for title matches, to squashing the lowest geek of them all in this atrocity. And now we got poor Rusev involved (yet another monkey's paw wish), just to transition Mike into official "cuckold" status.
I... I'm just speechless, man. Angry, but also speechless.

He's such a loser that even No Way Jose cringes when they pass each other backstage.

Someone realized they were setting up another shitty love triangle and then also realized Rusev hasn't been doing anything.

I have to assume at this point this is just some weird humiliation fetish of Vince and/or Heyman's that's simply gotten way out of control. It's a bad sign when it feels like we're about a week or two away from Kanellis being called Maria's paypig either in a promo or on commentary.

This storyline has bee ridiculous and awul from start to end

Think about this: Michael Cole is calling someone a loser. Michael Cole.

I remember a friend sending me the "Maria wins the 24/7 championship" segment and I'm sure in the writer's room it was a laugh-f***ing-riot, but man it just sent me spiraling back to a whole lot of shit I'd done a lot to get past and I have not subjected myself to one single minute of WWE since then because of the discomfort. All the bad writing and bad booking and Brock fellating, and in the end it's "ha ha it's domestic abuse, but on the guy!" is what drove me way from this horrid product for good.
Everyone responsible for writing this storyline should be run out of town

This angle tonight was all kinds of horrid. Nobody is coming out of their involvement in it any better than they went in - Ricochet's clearly taken a tumble to be involved in this. Rusev is stripped of just about any credibility he should have had for returning; and Mike and especially Maria are not only looking like utter jokes in this, but utter jokes who may or may not have gotten one over on WWE and who are clearly only in this for the money. When one has that reputation, it's very hard to see the quality of their work.

There is no way you can salvage this storyline, in my opinion.

I've never really liked Mike as talent, so this gimmick is a perfect fit for him. If someone has to shine in this role, he is the one to do it. One of the few times I haven't been annoyed about him taking screen time, actually. No need to make him bigger deal out of nowhere. He deserves all the treatment he gets.

It's uncomfortable, but it would actually be far more palatable without those insufferable idiots on commentary.
