Well are Justin Roberts and Maro friends? Any way his twitter followers and people in the business that like Maro definitely did.

Big Vic 09-11-2017 04:44 PM

Are they friends? I don't think they worked in the WWE at the same time.

Can't blame him for what his twitter followers do like the LAME-stream media does to trump.

Big Vic 09-11-2017 04:45 PM

(shuddering at my last sentence)

Simple Fan 09-11-2017 04:47 PM

No argument there but I still lost alot of respect for Maro after the situation. Of course involving JBL did him no favors with me as JBL is one of my favorite WWE title reigns of all time and a Wrestling God.

Maybe it would be, but I just don't understand how you can say every one with that diagnosis is phony. I don't disagree that people get misdiagnosed all the time. Mental Illness isn't easy, but that doesn't mean everyone diagnosed with bipolar disorder is faking or they are just throwing a blanket treatment. Ive spent my whole life around this illness. Visiting group homes and been inside mental hospitals seeing my mom. Its real.

I think Noid might be bipolar.

FAKE NEWS

IN OTHER FAKE NEWS, ALL 100 DOLLAR BILLS ARE PHONY.

In my personal experience, 100 dollar bills are counterfeit. So, even though there are plenty of examples of people using 100 dollar bills, in my opinion derived from my personal experience they are actually all counterfeit. Whenever I see a 100 dollar bill, I immediately rip it in half.

Oh I don't think they are faking it either. It's just who they are, not an illness. The bipolar diagnosis among others is an excuse for that behavior and a money grab for the medical profession in my opinion. If you've dealt with I you whole life then your family has probably spent alot of money on getting your mother help and I hope it's been worth it. Still think alot of it has to do with the individual and their willingness to change over anything.

I tried to bite my tongue, but with Corey Graves now coming over to SmackDown, can we please just end this fucking brand split?

mike adamle 09-11-2017 09:32 PM

Now what's the big deal about an announcer being on both shows? Gives him the ability to be the voice of the WWE

Mr. Nerfect 09-11-2017 09:34 PM

Exactly. The Voice of the WWE. The WWE. It's all WWE. Stop trying to make them two things when they aren't.

mike adamle 09-11-2017 09:41 PM

They're different WWE shows under the same brand. Not hard to differentiate.

Lock Jaw 09-11-2017 09:42 PM

Yeah, they aren't trying to pretend they are two different things.

It is like how other sports have divisions, but it is all still MLB/NHL/NBA/Whatever........

#1-norm-fan 09-11-2017 09:46 PM

Aren't they supposed to be competing though? Having people on both brands doesn't make sense.

mike adamle 09-11-2017 09:51 PM

Maybe during Survivor Series or when something is on the line but if they were constantly competing it'd get old quick. Just let em do their own thing on each show.

Destor 09-11-2017 10:08 PM

This is the same way the brand split ended last time. More and more guys floating back and forth until it was meaningless and them they merged

Mr. Nerfect 09-11-2017 10:08 PM

If there is no difference between them, then why the fuck are you doing it?

Lock Jaw 09-11-2017 10:12 PM

A large roster of people to give spotlight/time to.

Also, this.

This is more of a detriment than a positive. If talent like Curt Hawkins and Jinder Mahal weren't important to keep around in the cuts, then why is it so important to feature them now? I mean, it's good for them, on a personal level, but nothing is really helped by their presence. If anything, you have too many people trying to get over and the ultimate effect is that fewer people matter.

By splitting the roster, you immediately decrease the number of people that everyone on Raw is exposed to (ratings are usually hurt by the brand split), and and you impose a ceiling on just how much they are able to get over, since you not only have 50/50 booking, but you've also got two contenders for "best" as champions in respective divisions.

It wouldn't surprise me if the actual split ends very soon and we're left with unified titles, except for the two "World" Titles which will remain separate for a few years for no given explanation.

#1-norm-fan 09-12-2017 12:11 AM

It wouldn't surprise me if, after that, they split the rosters again a few years later.

Mr. Nerfect 09-12-2017 12:14 AM

I'll give it 4 years max.

Big Vic 09-12-2017 10:08 AM

Womens division should be on Raw Tag Division should be on SDL

Mr. Nerfect 09-13-2017 02:43 AM

Within the paradigm of the brand split, I agree. Splitting the divisions leaves them very hollow on each show, and having the divisions spread across the shows gives you a reason to watch. I imagine that the reason they don't do this is because each show is constructed to have the same staples and format, so it would require work to change that.

You'd still have hot girls on SmackDown. Renee Young is doing her interviewer shtick there. JoJo could be swapped over for ring announcer. You can have valets and female managers there. They might stand out as personalities there. When it comes to the tag teams, you're only really moving over Ambrose & Rollins, Sheamus & Cesaro, The Hardy Boyz and Gallows & Anderson. And at least half of those teams aren't likely to be together for much longer.

That makes too much sense!! Stop it! It doesn't go with the corporate plan to do everything exactly the same

Mr. Nerfect 09-15-2017 03:47 AM

Gentrification means that everything makes money, right?
