Then why cut some cringe promo during an interview about how that gimmick is only the surface and that underneath the glasses and jacket Orange Cassidy is a sick, fucked up, dangerous man? Kinda undercuts the whole "he doesn't deserve to be here because he is all gimmick and no go," argument when Mox himself is saying that there is a whole lot more beneath the gimmick. Let's be real here, this is 100% about Tiny Kwab trying to make his Literally Me into a Rock/Hoganesque megastar. I swear Tony has a straight up parasocial relationship with the character Orange Cassidy to the point he drags the person James Cipperly around with him to various sporting events while keeping him in character as Orange Cassidy
Got that smokers voice despite not being a childless aunt. Pretty tho
Brock can be great but frankly he's way too often a lazy shitter I'd like him a lot more if he was willing to actually try more
Its not gonna happen unless he knew nothing about Vince shitting on that girl, also its not just Triple H making that decision, Ari and Nick arent going to give themselves a free PR disaster by immediately bringing back Brock, could you imagine how bad the next PPV Media scrum would be if Brock returned just like that, they are already biased against WWE, this would give fags like FIghtful more fuel
Their feud feels like what would happen if you took the feud between Triple H and Eugene and did everything wrong. Eugene was a goofy comedy character, but he was insanely over as a midcard act. They wanted to have a program with him and Hunter, so they used a facet of his character (him being the keyfabe nephew of GM Eric Bischoff) to justify why a main event wrestler would have any interest in a mid midcard goofball comedy wrestler. He used Eugene as a means to an end only for it to backfire and kickstart the feud. It was a hot, relatively short feud where Hunter naturally came out on top. As over as Eugene was at the time, his selling point was his gimmick, and it was a gimmick that could not work within the main event scene.
Another comparison, imagine if Roman and the Bloodline during his championship reign started feuding with R-Truth all of a sudden, it makes no goddamn sense whatsoever, and its clear this booking is for Tony's personal fantasies over logical storytelling.
The girls I can give a pass to but the Bloodline and Zayne are all old ass men and looked like the Three Stooges jumping off the top rope.
Jade is very limited in the ring but she's got that aura around her that still makes her worth pushing. She's got the best look for a woman wrestler since Chyna (with maybe an exception of roided out Jordynne Grace). She's strong, athletic and has charisma. In-ring shit is the least important aspect of a wrestler. No one but smarks preferred Dean Malenko to Bill Goldberg.
I'm one of those cloud yelling old fogey's who prefers it went the match unfolds organically so the viewers can't tell that everyone is cooperating to set up spots. Everything looks a bit too crisp, too put together. I shouldn't complain about wrestlers being smart about executing dangerous maneuvers, but I just wish wrestlers knew how to sell the danger that diving from the ring poses to themselves.
