    The weekly "interviews" between cole and hhh are embarrassing, truly pathetic TV

    I'm growing to almost hate Reigns at this stage. It really bugs me that he's set to get the biggest push of the 3 when the Shield goes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,301 ✭✭✭✭gerrybbadd


    I can't understand the love for Steve Blackman. Sure he had a cool entrance theme, looked like a cool, young Chuck Norris, was a legit bad ass, was a killer with the glow in the dark death sticks.... Oh wait... now I get it! :o

    I like that the WWE have been holding back Daniel Bryan. It make you want to see him succeed even more. That said, it's time to let him hit supernova.

    Which was the opposite of their intention.

    -I can understand the decision to hold off Bryan's push but his time is now

    - Reigns has really started to shine and WWE is correct to make him the breakout star of the shield

    - I always preffered Smackdown to Raw but now I can barely be bothered to watch it

    - For months I've been gutted I'm not going to Wrestlemania this year.. now I'm slightly happy I'm not

    I'm fairly confident that this isn't a generally unpopular one at this point.

    I dunno a lot of people still moaning that Ambrose should be

    I think theres a fair arguement for all 3 to be pushed. Id say Roman is in the best position. Ambrose and Rollins have both as much, if not more long term potential as Reigns but Roman has been placed in the best position. Roman Reigns deserves loads of credit as he was considered the least likely when they debuted to actually make it.

    The three of them will be stars, it's just a case of who first.

    Really? It seems like anytime a group splits one or more get completely forgotten about after a few months.

    I fear the same will happen here despite how talented Rollins and Ambrose are could you really trust the WWE bookers/writers to give them something to do each month outside of the Shield.

    I think Ambrose and Rollins will stay together as a tag team for a while. That will keep them going while Reigns gets established as a singles guy. Then they can do the inevitable tag team break up which will increase their chances of succeeding.

    Think Ambrose is whiny punches bad and sells bad. Rollins is twice the wrestler

    I really can't stand Bryan's hair and beard now. It's time to trim it down.

    Ambrose is the best wrestler of the three. He may not be the biggest star, but he is the best actual wrestler.

    +1

    Saying that Rollins is great too. Reigns had improved a lot over the last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,869 ✭✭✭ShagNastii


    It is safe to say there won't be a Jannetty in the Shield. They've been main event players for the guts of a year and all have proven to have what it takes to be top end.

    Ah now there very well could be knowing the WWE creative team. Sure look how John Morrison turned out..... The Miz got the better push.

    Best on the mic and best character too.

    He and Reigns have big futures ahead of them. Rollins is the one I fear may end up as a low-mid carder at best but who knows.

    He's good in the ring but he's only average on the mic and he's pretty small which doesn't help his cause.

    I feel Rollins is the best wrestler, Ambrose is the best talker but Reigns has the best look.

    Who said he was least likely? He fits WWE mould better than the other two.

    The fact that people here can't pick a best or worst outright tells me that they've all been booked well enough and have potential as singles guys

    Well maybe I should have worded it better, but Roman was the most green and could easily have flopped like so many big wwe guys that were pushed too soon.

    Bryan's beard and hair look stupid at this stage. He just looks like such a ridiculous clown.

    I don't get him in some ways, Austin was a rebel. a foul mouthed, beer swilling SOB. Bryan is a like a nerdy geek who was bullied in school.

    This was perfect for him:

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    ^^ Got that photo signed by him two weeks after he lost the belt to Sheamo. That'd be the perfect look for him. He looks like a hobo ATM but it's working for him so who are we to judge?


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,500 ✭✭✭✭DEFTLEFTHAND


    Yeah that's his perfect look. Makes the guy look legit. No 'weird beard' and straw like hair.

    Bingo, that there's three of them and they all have their own individual plusses and none of them are dead weight in the team is a testament to how they've been booked since debuting, it's one of the things WWE got right the past year.

    I think Ambrose is the most charismatic, he has this kooky vibe and doesnt act like a typical WWE wrestler, I like that he'd make a great stable leader if he moves onto another faction. Rollins is entertaining and solid, Reigns is a future superstar, has the look, can hit a spear that looks like it actually hurts and has an overall badass/cool heel look to him.

    Completely agree about Bryan's hair, time to trim it back to a proper beard not a scraggly hobo looking thing. I thought this look was his best one:

    Dunno how unpopular it is but I think since gaining more power within WWE that HHH has done a terrible job
