I wonder if anyone here knows Punjabi and can translate what Jinder says then. Like is he doing the same promo? Is he saying really nice things about Shinsuke? Is he even a fluent speaker or just speaking jibberish? It's legit, but when he does the Punjabi bit of the promo, the material is slightly less overtly heelish.

The fact that jinder is a HEEEL and that this thread is seven pages of people literally SEEETHING at him tells me that he is the best at his job in the company. "Oh but his matches are boring!" THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE! "Oh but he says nasty things" HE IS SUPPOSED TO!

That's a shocking picture.
The empty side of the arena I mean, not Jinder holding the WWE title.

Frigging Thomas the Tank Engine has this where steam engines & diesel engines have animosity towards one another. Before the 985 sequels, the original Land Before Time presented triceratops looking down on Brachiosaurus. Good or even competent medium can discuss the topic of racism. But incompetent medium, you just shake your head at. The stupid thing about how WWE handles it is that they never take the other side. Jinder's whole deal of feeling like he's being racially discriminated by fans and co-workers would be perfectly fine if you had another guy up against him who said "it's never been the color of your skin, you're a cheater." But all the faces can do is make cute faces to the camera and hit finishing moves on the guy. I think it would be interesting to see a proper racially driven storyline in WWE, but it's never been a back and forth, just one side says something racist and the other side skirts around it. I'm not too bothered either way because I'm pretty used to WWE having their formula and this is right up to par with their quality of work. I get that WWE are trying to give this feud a more personal vibe, but Shinsuke doesn't really seem equipped for personal rivalries in the first place and the stuff that Jinder's coming at him with especially seems out of the Shinsuke character's wheelhouse. There's just nothing here for the two guys to play around with and actually make interesting. Right now heels can say pretty much anything to Shinsuke and the feud is exactly the same. Actually, I'm pretty sure Orton made that exact point during their feud, but I'm not going back to wade through three months of Orton vs. Jinder promos to find it either.

The fact that jinder is a HEEEL and that this thread is seven pages of people literally SEEETHING at him tells me that he is the best at his job in the company. "Oh but his matches are boring!" THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE! "Oh but he says nasty things" HE IS SUPPOSED TO! Everything about this post is wrong. Even the number of Es. Just on the match point, how heels are meant to be boring. Oh yeah, remember how boring Ric Flair, Randy Savage, Bret, Shawn etc. were as heels. Also, even if, ok, the heel worker has a more boring style... there's also a FACE in the match, the heel being boring should serve to show how much better and more exciting the face is. So if the overall match is boring, something has gone wrong. If you can't use your match to highlight the other guy, you're still bad at your job.

THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE! "Oh but he says nasty things" HE IS SUPPOSED TO! One, no. His job is to entertain. That's the entire purpose of wrestling. If you're being boring, you have FAILED as an entertainer. Two, just because someone takes issue with something doesn't make it an acceptable or effective means to get booed or that it should be done in that case. If they suddenly did a segment where Noam Dar tried to rape Emma, I guaran-damn-tee you people would be outraged and it sure as shit wouldn't be because of what effective heeling it was. Or for a lighter and more similar example - picture if the Usos took a shot at New Day by coming out in black face and acting like monkeys. People would be outraged and it wouldn't be at their characters. Especially if like with this New Day didn't even bother to respond.

That's actually been a really consistent thing for WWE lately, they've been having a very hard time selling tickets for both shows. Word making the rounds is they're actually kind of panicking about how the crowds for next week look.

"...does that excuse how shitty our scripted writing can be? No, not really. It's bad. And we mean...just watch Jinder or Roman on the mic, look what the f*** we're working with here!!..but uh..yeah..all..all fake folks. We hire..TONS of luchadores...a-and...Canadians!...also there's Connors Challenge. Do you have a moment so can we talk to you about our WOMENS REVOLUTION?"

If you're being boring, you have FAILED as an entertainer. The heel's job is to wrestle a style during the heat segment and the hopespot/cutoff segment that makes the face look good when the face gets to his shine segment. If a heel is doing cool, fast, flippy stuff that pops the crowd, he will make the face look less good.
