Kyyle23 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Mar 20, 2014 -> 02:00 PM) I miss when the Intercontinental Championship meant something. It used to be the second-highest achievement in wrestling. Now it's basically the TV or European title. One of the unintended side effects of the WCW invasion angle was the percieved worth of each belt. I agree, the IC champ used to be a big deal, now it is Heavyweight/World title or nothing. The tag belts are a complete joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were on the right track with Golddust and Cody, but when they dropped to NAO I was really disappointed. Good that the Uso's have it, but they need a awesome tag team in there that draws pop or heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Usos are good but there are 0 heel tag teams worth fighting. I don't know why Harper and Rowan don't compete in the division. Goldust and Cody are awesome. Goldust is somehow at his best ever but they are complete baby faces so feuding with the Usos makes no sense.

Good that the Uso's have it, but they need a awesome tag team in there that draws pop or heat Real Americans should have been that good heel team, but the fans love Cesaro too much....It's kinda hard to get heat now a days, seems like the only way to get heat is to be a boring wrestler. Wyatts should be getting heat but they're just too awesome to hate. I'm sure the Ascension will end up in that same category as a team pushed as heels who will ultimately end up being loved by most fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Unify the ic and us title and just have whomever has the belt actually defend it. Ambrose has had US Title 9 months and has defended it a handful of times it feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I know, I shouldve seen him in ROHCZWXtreme Wrestling but in WWE, he doesn't do much for me. I'm glad they Mania card looks strong without Punk. The more he is gone, the more it pisses me off. 6 months left on a deal and he walks and gives up money. Just dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they're such a good group though, they mask each other's weaknesses. Ambrose can be the mouth piece, Rollins can do all the heavy lifting in the ring and Reigns can come in and destroy people with his signature moves. They just work perfectly together. The way I understand the Punk situation is he actually did all his dates that were in his contract so that's kind of why he was able to just walk, so he's still probably getting paid for Merch sales. And as much as I want him at mania it seems he inadvertantly saved the card by walking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you remember, I actually said I was kind of surprised by the WWE signing him because he was more of a "hardcore" wrestler who was just really good on the mic. But ya, like Rowand said, he's the mouth piece, and he's probably there to take a few big bumps or stiff hits along the way. Also....Luke Harper is such a boss. His last 2 matches with Cena have been fantastic. I really hope he gets a singles run at some point Edited March 25, 2014 by scs787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the potential of both of them but their weaknesses are beautifully hidden with in the group. And ya, Harper has been terrific since he was able to showcase his ability in the 6 man rage against the Shield. EDIT: Apparently autocorrect didn't like 6 man tag but 6 man rage works too.
