Uso are one of the greatest tag teams of all time. But they don't work as singles wrestlers. "Yeet!" is also the eorst catchphrase of all time. They basically went "Yes!" Has been popular forever, and it's "definitely because of the chant not Danielson. Let's make it cooler!"
Yep need them to go back the tag division their feud with The New Day back in the day was class. They were also better in the Bloodline stuff early on Jey in particular I've never bought as a singles guy Jimmy is at least funny.
The Last Time is Now tournament for the honour to fight Cena isnt shaping up that well with mainly the usual suspects: so far we have: Damian Priest vs. Rusev Sheamus vs. Shinsuke Nakamura Jey Uso vs. The Miz La Knight vs. ????? Clamour to see who the mystery guest is vs LA Knight - Jericho currently baiting hard on socials There will be some representatives from NXT as well as potentially AAA or TNA?
Depending on whether they want him to win his last match or he wants to do the job for a new talent, I feel like it should have either been vs Edge in Boston (obviously neither happening), or he should job out to the next guy they want to be a World Champ, which obviously can happen. Gunther would be the obvious one, although I feel like they are building to Sami winning a world title so maybe him. Other than that, they could gamble on an up and comer from NXT, but that can easily backfire badly (see Corbin vs Angle).
Hopefully Gunther or Solo in that order. Don't want another big Jey match and I can't stand LA Knight.
I think it should be Knight. Gunther doesn't need it, Jey Uso doesn't need it and Solo isn't quite there yet. Knight is still over with the fans, and this could finally be the start of the final push for him into main event status. They need to make a new star. That main even picture is getting stale. They've tried with Uso already.
I think if they were going to pull the trigger on Knight they’d have done so by now… …but Triple Hs WWE does seem to have the habit of delaying the push & milking it to death rather than pulling the trigger on it when it’s hot. I still think Sami Zayn should have taken at least one of the belts off Reigns in Montreal in ‘23.
Zayn should have won. It was the perfe t story bar the finish. Could have lost it back a few months later. I think TKO are getting involved in yhe booking as WWE has been nowhere near as good since they took over, and I don't think HHH became a bad booker overnight. NXT black & gold was consistently excellent for 5/6 years under his booking. And WWE did great after Vince left. Only when TKO came in did it start to drop off again. Meanwhile AEW has went the opposite way. It's PPVs have always been great, but the week to week stuff was meh, and the stories weren't great. Weekly TV is still not the best (Dynamite is fine, but the rest is bad), but at least there's proper stories again, and the PPVs still hit the mark every time. Not sure WWE have had a good PPV this year? (Evolution maybe?)
When Zayn faced Reigns he still held two World Titles - they could have easily either only had one on the line (and have Zayn go over) or made it a two fall match, one for each title then have Reigns retain one & Zayn win the other. It didn’t need to be the end of the whole tribal chief thing but WWE definitely could have got away with taking a part of if away for the remainder of the storyline.
I especially hate that they now have an Undisputed title and a World title. Makes no sense. Juat split the belts up like you said.
Cena losing to Mysterio was about the only thing they got right at SS imo. A massive rub to a guy who is clearly going to be a big part of a future main event scene.
And Breakker getting the pin in the main event. War Games is tired as a concept. It's lazily thrown together and didn't actually have any jeopardy or meaning. Why not integrate a thing whereby whoever gets the pin gets a world title shot? Or the winning team gets rewarded with title shots. These little things give you scope to create little nuances in the storylines. Wasted potential for me. Let's see what happens over the next three months. Rumuors are it's going to be Cody v Reigns and Punk v Breakker at Mania. I also think if Jey Uso wasn't still over in the arenas, we'd have seen a crashout heel turn by now. But as long as those shirts keep selling and they keep getting those viral moments of the whole crowd yeeting, they'll keep him face.
Seen people theorize that Jericho was the guy in black the guy could not scale the cage that quickly with his physique. It's clearly Austin Theory to add to Heyman's Vision I am actually quite hyped for it he is a perfect fit, I just wish they would remove Logan Paul he looks out of place in the group.
Think the first video I saw of Survivor Series was someone showing how the only person it could have been is Austin Theory, purely based off his back side Thought the Liv return and Dom regaining was done well. He was always going to win because Cena can’t just up and leave with the IC title, but it added a little layer of jeopardy to proceedings and adds a question mark going into his final match whether he puts someone over or goes full super cena
