Then if it's for faces, what's the explanation for AJ selling the loss on Raw by smiling and skipping? Thera no such thing as heel or face divas they're just there to pop Johnny Ace's buyrate. *whispers to forum*The buyrate is his penis.

At tlc orton wins the titles and Cena is like oh well, smiling and joyfully skipping to the back. Orton looks confused. That's because his house will still be in immaculate shape. Just wait till he's told that D-Bry spilled Gatorade on the kitchen floor.

I don't really buy this. I know WWE does stupid stuff, but I can't believe none of the veterans in the back would point out; "Hey, this is really stupid. Unnecessarily stupid. There's no reason for this stupidity to occur".

I don't think Eva Marie understands that what she is doing is called wrestling.

Lance Storm confirmed this isn't necessarily a new thing on his F4W podcast. When he had the dancing gimmick, after some match he just sold his injuries instead of dancing and got yelled at.

This isn't new. Lance Storm told a story on the Observer Radio show that 10 years ago when he and RVD beat Vitamin C in a tag match on Raw, that he got bitched out immediately once he got backstage because he sold being tired instead of immediately dancing as part of his gimmick.

It's like they're thinking: "Hey, some people don't think professional wrestling is fake enough! Let's really up the ante!"
I swear it's like the older Vince gets, the more he forgets about how to run the company.

I am genuinely disturbed by the prospect that anyone would believe this.

Remember when Hogan would sell losing the WWF Title as if someone shot and ate his family dog? Boy, have we moved far away from that.

I love how the stories we can't possibly believe to be true always end up being true these days.

This is so crazy, detrimental to the product, and utterly stupid, that I can easily believe it to be true.

But, but, it's all about having fun~!
That's Stephanie's new mandate, btw. Remember when they had that dumb company motto of "We put smiles on people's faces!" a few years back? This is the new one. So expect to start hearing it a lot very soon. FUN~!

It works for cartoon ponies, so who's to say that it won't work for wrestlers.

That was a specific example of a comedy gimmick, but having watched some of the last 10 years of wrestling, by no means are babyfaces generally laughing, dancing, or jumping back from the ring after losses. We need more than two examples in the last decade for this to be a thing "that the WWE teaches its talent."

Eva Marie has become the epicenter of wrestling newz in her short time on the roster.

Eva Marie doesn't need to be told not to sell that's just natural talent right there.

New WWE Slogan = "We're all about having fun, which is why you shouldn't buy the PPV's we try to sell on the basis of our superstars actively competiting against each other for championship titles and personal feuds based on violent attacks"
