Legit question for those happy about this: Did you honestly enjoy Brock showing up every other month just to bounce around while Heyman cut the same rambling promo over and over again?

That's my only issue with Brock. The guy is not exactly terrible on the mic. He had some great segments back in the day, and I don't get why they don't utilize that more.

PISS! The guy's death on the mic without Heyman, and Heyman's out of gas.

Yikes.


Khans.
Cody.

They're doing the heavy lifting for you. They're parodying themselves at this point.

All you have to do is not f*** it up. No excuse not to be the hip alternative.

Yes, maybe I'm a simple man. But watching Brock suplex the shit out of people still entertains me.

I've suggested before that Brock should take on the Undertaker role of appearing every now and then for a big program. His matches with the smaller guys showed he can still be entertaining.

But him holding the Universal title hostage was absolute death and I don't want him anywhere near a title ever again. It was the same promo. The same bouncing. The same bare minimum bullshit then disappearing for a month. He can hardly be bothered to build his own programs; the Mania build was basically Seth vs. Heyman.

Whenever people say they want something unexpected it's usually with the unspoken caveat that that something is... Y'know, good.

Not to mention it's not exactly different. It's just making the full time guys look like useless filler to prop up Brock the same way they've been doing for the past seven years.

I'm fairly ashamed to say this, but it has to be said:

For the betterment of the wrestling business, never mind the WWE, Vince has got to kick the bucket. Not wishing it on him of course, but the consistency of the shitty product, boring shows, mind-numbing decisions, falling ratings, and fans switching their channels paints a pretty bleak picture of what's to come if it continues.

Damn, I hope AEW is some good shit when it starts. Not that I'm all, hurhur f*** WWE or any of that, but legit competition needs to force those nimrods in Connecticut to put a product out there that isn't diarrhea.

It would be unpredictable if Seth and AJ both stopped midway through the match because they had some bad Taco Bell that afternoo and just took dumps in the corners of the ring. That doesn't make it good storytelling. That's a complete non-point.

Also I don't think many people have even been specifically saying "We want something unpredictable" so you punching that strawman right in the dick doesn't even really look all that neat.

Oh Lord...

What if Brock cashes in on Kofi since SDL is headed to FOX? UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Where have you been? People have not wanted Brock for ages.

To paraphrase 'My Cousin Vinny' A fart is unpredictable, it doesn't mean anyone is going to enjoy it.

Honestly, I’m kinda intrigued by this. I like the idea of Brock being MitB, because it at (likely) gets away from the monotony of the beat down cash in. Brock’s a world beater, he doesn’t have to cash in when you’re hurt. Motherf***er can cash in when you’re healthy and likely win

[This Player Hating Mothman]

Brock isn't even unpredictable, the status quo for five years has literally been a framed photo of Brock Lesnar that Vince caresses at night.

[Bang Bang Bart]

f*** this boring UFC meathead.

Really though what does it do for morale when you have guys taking all kinda crazy bumps just to be rewarded by watching Brock waltz in and get the briefcase.

The amazing thing is they all knew that finish before they went out there and still busted their asses for this company.

There's a difference between unpredictable while being good and unpredictable while being bad.

It's great to see our group of trolls that really need to feel superior to everyone else are here in force.

Anyway Ali was standing there doing nothing so long he looked like a f***ing anime character, except you at least figure that in anime shit's all slowing down super hard and talking doesn't take any time at all so in practice it's probably not too bad. Ali had the match won and just stood there drooling while Brock made his way down for what in no way was going to be something good or helpful to him. Who writes this crap and thinks it looks good? At least do it when Ali is setting up the ladder or something, Christ.

Well, yea but these guys did not make it this far in Wrestling to go pouty to the ring because they are losing a match.

Seriously I think that 1.9 scared Vince for all the wrong reasons, and if they're scared of AEW as they say, they're actually going in the absolute wrong direction in terms of keeping fans interested, especially with a fresh alternative right on the horizon

WWE has taken WCW's mistakes and multiplied them to a million, it's astounding.

They want to bank on Brocks star power to save the ratings and crush AEW, thats Vince POV for the looks of it.

Sadly, Ali likely blew the one chance he'll ever get to be a main eventer by having the temerity to get hurt during his push. Which is f***ing garbage, but there it is. Yeah, he looks like a total buffoon in everything I've seen.

Ali winning straight up when most people had Corbin, Drew, or even Andrade would've been unpredictable in a good way. f*** Brock, just more of the same shit with him.
