I wonder what happens at the Takeover show...

I was shocked when I read it was their lowest rated show since 1997. I swear I read the ratings and it looked same as usual standard so I must of looked at the wrong stats. It'll only help though, the usual viewers saw a good show and now they'll have to keep going strong to pick up the casuals who are dropping.

The doc was OK. Bit too much emphasis on family life for me, always pisses me off because I don't really want to see that stuff, it's boring. Triple H and all the yes men thought Kruger was a bad gimmick, yet I thought it was great. How is Rose any better. That gimmick produced the f'n bunny. Kruger is essentially like a cross between the Bray, Harper and Ambrose character. Bits nuts and weird promos but wanted to see what he'd do.

I'm debating if Hogan is a dealbreaker for me, I just want to yell shut up old man anytime he says stuff. Like his constant wanting to work another Mania.

I watched the doc live, I've never watched NXT(my loss, I know), I screamed 'where the fuck was this guy?' 15 min in after hearing about Kruger. I think it was the voice that sold it for me right away, he sounded awesome.

Not even the prospect of drooling over Paige could get me to watch Jericho and Hogan. Think I'll pass on this series of Tough Enough.

Has anyone on the previous seasons actually gone on to do well in WWE?

I'll still watch it and report on how much Hogan is ruining it.

As for Tuff Enuff, I guess since Miz was in a Mania main event you could argue he made it, even though he's just a jobber now. Ryback also but he hasn't won the title yet.

Maven will be remembered for drop kicking the Undertaker out of the 2002 Rumble. I'm pretty sure I remember being shocked when that happened just like everybody else was.

I'm not expecting much from the show and I'm overdosed on Y2J. He must be trying to keep his midlife crisis from kicking in by staying busy. No doubt they'll pick another safe marketable choice and they won't make it because Vince doesn't like their face or something.

If the standard for Tough Enough is to find the next megastar, a Hogan/Austin/Rock/Cena type, then it's been a total failure. If it's finding good, solid workers then it's done alright. Part of the problem being that the talent still has to get booked well after the show ends.

Ryback and Miz are 2 that I know of.

Jericho is a lame host let's be honest here

Let's hope they keep the quality of the show up. I worry that Vince will probably panic and do something stupid like make Rollins lose the belt to Kane in a desperate attempt to gain more viewers because that's what he thinks people want to see.

I haven't seen that much of Kruger but it's certainly a better gimmick than Adam Rose. No surprise that he's turned into a jobber. It would be pretty easy to have him turn back into Kruger though, just have him snap on the Rosebuds and go back to "his roots" or something.

As for Jericho, I can't stand the guy lately. It's sad to say because "Conspiracy Victim" and "Suit Wearing" Jericho were 2 of my most favorite characters ever. But he's turned into a complete corporate shill, promoting everything WWE does and saying the fans don't know anything. I watched his podcast with Cena and he didn't even get anywhere near anything that could be considered a tough question. I skipped the one with Stephanie. Stone Cold didn't ask that many tough questions either but he was worlds ahead of Jericho.

Him, Jim Ross, Lance Storm, Fatt Hardy, and other WWE cock blowers on twitter just irritate me with the way they put fans down for having their own opinion on the company.

[MarkC1984]

Well, out of those listed I would only listen to the opinion of JR. Wish he could comeback to RAW, get him and King back together please ffs WWE. Although saying that, if I could have any team it would have to be Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby the Brain on commentary. Don't think there has ever been a better team than those 2.

Like him or not, Cena is working his ass off to bring prestige back to the US Championship belt. He is making it important again.
