If they really want it to be successful they should have cast some of the fun, interesting Divas like Kaitlyn, AJ, or Alicia Fox. I love stupid reality tv and will definitely check this out, but the fact that the Bellas are involved really lowers my expectations. They're so awful and overpushed, I don't want to see them outside of Raw or Smackdown.

I hope this show is good. I might check it out. Sounds interesting enough.

The only possible saving grace this show could present is if The Soup pans it every week in a hilarious fashion. Between this show and the new Ryan Lochte show, they might have to have two separate The Soups' each week.

We should really make an official betting system on this show on how many episodes until it's cancelled.
I give it two or three.

Why does it seem like people wish the WWE fail at whatever new project they have planned? I hope this is a huge hit and makes wrestling more mainstream.

In fact, most people seem to agree that NXT would make a great televised program. This project, on the other hand, is a reality show (Strike One) on top of of almost nine hours of WWE television (Strike TWO) that seems to be another scheme to shove the Bella Twins to the front of the line at the expense of far more deserving and FAR more talented people (Strike THREE!). It's oversaturation, of WWE in general and the Bella twins specifically.

I'm expecting this to bomb, badly. Though then again, it doesn't sound any more stupid than most of what's on E!, so who knows.

I do wonder if this show turns out to be a total flop that the Bellas will be told to take a hike. Unless Cena comes out the closet, the Bellas are going nowhere.

It'll be mercy killed within a month.

If people regularly watch reality shows about horny teenagers who keep making bad decisions, rich hillbillies, pawn shops, NBA jumpoffs, hip hop jumpoffs, spoiled housewives, and people with no talent but are famous for it; there will be an audience for this. I know people want it to automatic fail but I sense the show will last at least 4 seasons. Especially considering the network they are on and the formula they are going for. The truth about reality shows is that people don't want reality. They want storylines, fights, and name calling. Folks to cheer for and loathe. Kinda like wrestling with no wrestling. Though I do wish they made Vince Russo the show's main scriptwriter.

It's being said that while the show is being billed as a "reality" series, all story lines are being scripted out Of course it's scripted. All reality shows are scripted nowadays. Every single thing on TV is scripted. Even things like Documentaries and the news are works to a certain degree. I still believe the WM tag team match was cancelled just so they could use the footage of the backstage fallout for this show.

The Bella hate on this forum has approached and exceeded ridiculous levels. There are plenty of reasons why they are perfect choices to be the lead characters in this show, and I guarantee it won't be cancelled after two or three episodes like some of you are ridiculously claiming. If you're not interested, that's fine, but don't generalise completely inaccurately.

Even then, the Bellas aren't going anywhere. Cena'll probably get his own reality show, though: "watch one of the WWE's most loved (and hated) Superstars try to get a man! Did we mention this superstar's a man too? John Cena: Thuggin' Love] only on E!" Exactly. E! and TruTV are in a race to the bottom for most despicable tv program. Just E! and TruTV? Ever see some of the stuff that gets aired on TLC? Forreal, though. Bad as this show'll probably be (even the commercials felt like a punishment for something I didn't even do), it'll never be as bad as Honey Boo-Boo. And yet, it wouldn't hurt if it was; at the very least, it'd accomplish something besides plastering the Bellas everywhere with virtually zero upside. Worst new series has to be an accomplishment of some sort, shouldn't it?

If my mathematical theorem is correct, where if something is unpopular among the internet demographic, it is exactly inversely popular among the casual demographic... this will be the biggest hit on TV this year.

Did you guys see that WWE App video with AJ from Raw. AJ does her in-ring interview, Kaitlyn comes out and gets a solid reaction from the fans, immediately the Bellas come out and literally get no reaction at all. Why WWE continue to push them is beyond me. I could understand why Kelly got pushed since she was over and popular with the fans. But the Bellas?

I don't watch anymore but that doesn't surprise me one bit. And before anyone plays the "Sexism!" card, we did this with Drew McIntyre too. Every match was PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH. His promos were lame. His feuds weren't much better. And we were supposed to think he was the "Chosen One." Eventually the mods put a moratorium on D-Mac hate threads, they were that common.
