I don't mind Ziggler just aslong as he stays bumping like **** and getting thrown around the ring like a rag doll. He puts on some decent matches, he'd be a decent babyface always coming close to wins but losing narrowly. Never, ever should he be a heel world champion.

Told u..without AJ? He ain't shyt. You're witnessing it weekly.
:ehh: neither one of them were doing that great the whole time they were paired to together :yeshrug:. IMO Big E came off the best he looked great beating people down and he won most of his matches during that time whenever he wrestled.

AJ was doing fine....promos were ending with her theme music and she won the belt. There was this idea around her that he was gonna leave her and become some great new main event talent...just like with MVP and Metro, everyone was dead wrong on that...again.

I've come to realize that main eventers in WWE are usually chosen as a result of having a good size and support from the higher ups (Sheamus, Del Rio) or get over due to outstanding talent in one area and a particular event gets them over as a result (CM Punk, Daniel Bryan). Really, you can't predict who becomes a main event player, it's up to elevate either their gimmick or workrate or both to become a big star.

I know. Ryback should be a BIG deal. Should of went undefeated ALOT longer than he did...could of even turned heel to stay undefeated or eventually win the title later this year. There were many options that were better than him getting punked out by Punk, Shield, and Mark Henry but that's the way they went with him. Now he's this comedy heel doing near rape scenarios..lol.

but ryback was never really over like that and he was beating 2-3 dudes at once. he peaked and there was no way he should've gone over...they should've kept him away from punk if they felt like vesting in him but no, ryback was never over enough to carry the belt.

chants do NOT mean you're drawing

He was over...I was at the damn arena during all of that shyt. He was very over and that was just in March of this year. He did draw on that PPV and he lost. He shouldn't have lost...either he should of won or they shouldn't have done it. All of that stuff with him was a waste of time after that point. No way he could be salvaged.

Other than Big E getting heel heAt for his beatdowns, they were heatless and losing every night.She didn't start to get her groove back until her feud with Kaitlyn started.

Nah..she was definitely getting responses during her promos. You probably didn't watch her promos since dudes around here don't like females in wrestling as their IWC gimmick but either way..she was on fire until they had Ziggler get on the mic and he blew it as usual.

He is just kind of out of the Title Picture right now, and doesn't have a feud, he isn't getting buried like some of you are whining about.

He beat Big E on Smackdown the week after SummerSlam in like 3 minutes, and he is part of this main event story-line. Who cares about Superstars, who is watching that shyt?

Happens to everyone really, Orton was without a feud for awhile he was just there making random appearances, Sheamus went through that before he got injured, Big Show, Mark Henry, etc...
