The participation from everyone involved was hilarious.

Loved ***hole Batista BTW. "Did you get it all of your system" in response to the crowd chanting "YES!".

Re: WWE Off-Topic

lol WWE logic....Batista and Brie both quit, yet this week BOTH are doing official WWE autograph signings....In Philly of all places. Can't imagine the type of comments those fans will say.

Clay never had a shot at the main event after the Funkasauras deal, but it was entertaining as hell. And that's the point.

Bourne could do some cool spots, but I never saw great matches out of him. And he was horrible on the mic. Maybe a tag team with Kidd under hoods could've worked. But no huge loss there either.
I feel like they just waste things instead of building things up now. Not to be cliche internet wrestling nerd, but it does really seem that way lately now more than ever. You have a 3 hour Raw and 2 hour SD, along w/ Main Event and your own freaking network now, and still can't build a legit midcard. Even now you still have guys like Ziggler and Kofi seemingly wasting away into nothingness.

It's a little disconcerting. I know WWE is going more character driven w guys like Wyatt, but at some point I just feel like you shouldn't let guys who've been over and have legit talent just waste away. A guy like Clay could have easily been built up into something. I read an article that made a good point, all of WWE's super-heavyweights (Kane, Show, Henry, etc) are on the downside of their career and will be gone in the next few years. Clay could have filled that role perfectly but instead floundered after they turned him heel and gave him nothing.

Well, part of the reason is Vince is still calling the shots for RAW, and then you have Triple H doing NXT and reports have been saying he's working his *** off to show Vince that his ideas are what works and not Vince's anymore. Triple H wants a more wrestling based product compared to Vince, and you can really see that in NXT.

As much as Triple H gets jokingly **** on with burial jokes, he is truly what is best for business. The gimmicks in NXT are so fleshed out and the writers on RAW/SD just don't know what to do with them, so it hurts the talent because terrible creative control and not because they lack talent.

IDK about NXT gimmicks being "so fleshed out"
