    I'm all for Sheamus turning heel when he comes back if Langston is solidly over as a mega face by then.

    The big reason that Dolph Ziggler is back in the midcard after his World Heavyweight title run is that he reportedly has a bad attitude around other superstars and media. WWE is not happy with how he represents himself both within the company and during media appearances.

    Ziggler has claimed that he's just working his gimmick and has the same attitude he would with storylines, but WWE doesn't buy that. He doesn't have a lot of backing with officials because of how he speaks to them.

    Dolph needs to go watch the media appearances of other WWE folks, especially when they aren't speaking to a wrestling-specific audience.

    I've posted interviews from this guy before, mainly because they're all fantastic. Listen to how Paul Heyman, the always dastardly and despicable wrestling personality, converses:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9d8ygcPjfJ8


    He's not Paul Heyman the wrestling personality. He's just Paul Heyman. Dolph needs to just go out and be Nick Nemeth when talking to the media. This isn't the 80s. Heels don't go around slapping people in the mouth anymore. Faces and heels don't ride separate buses and hate each other in public. People know it's a show. Nicky should probably start acting like he knows it, too.

    Christ, another PPV with 3 week build. Yay. Scores will be tabulated today or tomorrow. I may even throw together some sort of match scheme for those champions we have.

    If anybody is proof WWE 15 needs proper sub surface scattering to make the characters look better it's Sheamus since the TSA, in place of an x-ray, puts a flashlight behind him.

    Hello everyone! Pick'em's for Hell in a Cell are right around the corner, and since you all are so hilariously bad at them, I, as the best picker this thread has ever seen, have decided to help you all out. Because you are bad at this.

    1. Don't fantasy book with your picks. Because your opinions and ideas are awful, and you should feel bad that you have them. Now, this rule really doesn't apply to me, but I also am not a mouth-breathing idiot like the rest of you, so when I fantasy book something, there's a good chance I'm right.

    2. Take your time with the picks. This is not a race. There is no award for being the first moron to submit his picks. The only thing that gets you is a pat on the head and the knowledge that wirehead probably picked the PPV way better than you.

    3. No seriously, you all have bad opinions. At this point I am almost convinced that you guys are new to wrestling and are just pretending to have watched shows from the past. Stop having bad opinions.

    Now, I know a lot of you won't heed my advice, and that's fine, because those people were destined to suck at this anyway. And for the people who do take my advice? Well, it will be nice to have some competition for once.

    As for my other grievance, I'm calling out one @EvilBadman . Specifically, why he's dogged me these past few PPVs in regards to a title shot. I've gone out and done everything. I lead the Pick'em. I won the Tag Belts. I won Money in the Bank. I know that our beloved GM TLB is gone, but you've continued to let Pwnan hold the title, and he's been so bad, that the Great Khali looks like the greatest World Champion of all time in comparison. So I'm demanding that I get the title shot that I've earned by being the face of this Pick'em for so long.

    This has been a message from Nirya, your reigning and defending Pick'em leader, Tag Team Champion, Money in the Bank holder, and future World Champion.

    I'm pretty sure when you guys won those belts several people tied with one of you.

    I don't actually remember who had more points that time, but I'm just going to assume it was Nirya.

    Also I like how WWE hasn't completely banished/erased the term "Professional Wrestler" yet. I understand they promote Sports Entertainment and all but I wish they wouldn't use that term to describe their wrestlers. Just use it to describe the brand.

    You've got a grievance? You? What about me? I was undefeated Average Champion, I destroyed any and all challengers with a flawless display of picking skill. Face wins straight down the card? Bam, picked, done, only 1 point off perfection. PPV after PPV I defend my crown. What does that get me? The Average Belt is retired just before Wrestlemania and I get shoved into the midcard.

    I have a thoughtful and infrequently updated blog about games http://whatithinkaboutwhenithinkaboutgames.wordpress.com/

    I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.

    Your Average Championship run was just that. Average. I was the longest reigning Pick'Em champ! I was beating the likes of 411Random and Hubris before it was cool! Me, the little guy from Eastern Canuckistan!

    Sure lately I've been relegated to a spot that would make The Great Khali envious but I'm back on track and cracked the Top 20 as of last update. I'm going to make a greatest comeback since The Rock came back for the second time, and I never left!

    It's been interesting the way they've handled Punk and Bryan over the last couple years. They've understood that part of why those guys got over was because of the "smarks" and so they've played up that aspect that they're not the typical WWE "sports entertainers", but legit wrestlers who've paid their dues etc. I've been generally pretty impressed with how WWE has handled blending kayfabe with reality, acknowledging on some level that those two guys are stars in part because they're unique and don't quite fit in the WWE mold, and also acknowledging the backstage politics that have held them back. It's becoming more explicit with HHH's "business" talk but there's still enough of a kayfabe justification for their language that I haven't felt it's gotten too blatantly smarky the way .. other companies sometimes do. Like, even for people who aren't as aware of the way wrestlers get pushes and everything, the storyline is such that HHH talking about wanting to have a star to promote the brand and everything makes sense on the kayfabe surface.

    WWE just put up the Steve Austin/Dustin Rhodes US title match from Halloween Havoc that happened 20 years ago today.

    Also, muha, back near the top... for a PPV... oh god I'm going to tank HiaC so hard!
