Did anyone else see William Regal last night?

It was disgusting, he weighs like 300 lbs now, tucked in under his tights like Hogan often does.

I really hope he is the Raw GM so I never have to see him wrestle again.

Hit the gym dude.

**TheAdamEvansFan** · 12-21-2010, 08:52 AM

We have seen the womens division go to its least interesting stalemate.

It's been pretty awful since the days of Trish, Lite, Chyna, and Sable, but with Kelly Kelly on ECW and sparking interest with her crazy dancing, it had some hope in recent years.

When I saw kelly kelly dancing and doing a striptease to Loosen up my Buttons and some lapdancing on stage of the ECW set, I thought I was going to DIE. I marked out hardcore.

Now, on Raw, they go straight into a Divas match, without any promos, and we bear witness to their awful wrestling manuevers. If I see one more kick that doesn't land a blow to the head, I'm going to jump in the ring and do it myself.

Any ideas on what the WWE needs to do? Obviously in a PG environment.

**TheAdamEvansFan** · 12-21-2010, 09:00 AM

If you're an avid wrestling fan, I'm sure you've tuned into Raw and saw the old storylines, the lame gimmicks, and the weak selling of promos other than the Main Event scene which contines to be gold (and Nexus).

Who do you feel needs to move to Smackdown so they can get into more of a wrestling developed show.

Do they also need a gimmick change, or possibly instead of the move?

Names that instantly come to mind are Santino Marella, Ted Dibiase, Mark Henry, etc.

It's almost as if noone is wrestling on Raw anymore, it's the promo at the beginning for the main event, it's the Diva's, then it's a tag team or intercontinental bout wit Dibiase or Daniel Bryan wrestling, then there's only 2 matches left til the end.

I'd like to point out Santino Marella. When he first came to the WWE, I had huge hopes for him being a intercontinental champion for a long standing time, and such, but now, he is just a goofy face who can't be taken seriously.

When is it enough, and does he need a new gimmick, or a heel turn?

**El Tigre** · 12-21-2010, 09:30 AM

Really? Because since TLC I noticed an increase in the ring work of the Divas, and am more or less pleased by it. It's been too long since the female competitors of the WWE have been anything more than eye candy for the masses (i.e. Bella Twins), so to see wrestlers like Natalya, Beth, Laycool, and even Fox up their game as of late is a breath of fresh air.

Honestly, what I think their trying to accomplish is to make the Divas more like the Knockout division of TNA, but that's just my opinion.

**The Jayman** · 12-21-2010, 09:31 AM

**El Tigre** · 12-21-2010, 09:41 AM

Are you talking about when he wrestled Daniel last night? The Guy is a sound wrestler with an array of holds, submissions, and counters, and he put on a hell of a match.

Is he as fit as he once was? Of course not, but is he still able to perform? definitely.

**Mr. Nerfect** · 12-21-2010, 09:48 AM

Beth Phoenix, Natalya and Gail Kim are amazing. Layla, Michelle McCool and Melina are good. Eve Torres and The Bellas are improving. AJ Lee and Naomi Night are in the wings.

I'd love for the WWE to snap up Awesome Kong, Sara Del Ray and Cheerleader Melissa as much as anyone, but beyond that, I think things are going pretty well. I just wish they had of kept the Women's Title instead of the Divas Title.

**Mr. Nerfect** · 12-21-2010, 09:54 AM

Santino Marella is one of the few RAW guys that is being used to his potential. The man is currently a champion, gets to be entertaining on both RAW and SmackDown!, is wrestling more than he ever did, and is actually getting some credible victories (more credible than he ever has). Marella is fine, although I do hope that he continues to go up, rather than down and becomes purely a joke character.

Ted DiBiase could use a move to SmackDown!, to be honest. I think it would allow him to develop in the ring more, and he'd be able to develop more of his own shtick there. What Cody Rhodes is doing on SmackDown! has been done before, but I was thinking about this the other day -- when has a narcissistic character been done with a guy who has the ring skills that Rhodes does? Most of the time they're big guys who are decent at best in the ring. So the heat magnet is combining with Rhodes' talent and working. DiBiase pretty much has his father's gimmick, which actually goes against what DiBiase came into the WWE to do.

Of the RAW guys, Zack Ryder, Primo, Yoshi Tatsu and even William Regal come to mind. All those guys would probably clutter SmackDown!, but Ryder is being absolutely wasted to the point where he is a joke. He'll get his time in the future, I am sure, but the guy got so much momentum on ECW. Hell, even if they put him in a team with Curt Hawkins again (a guy being wasted on SmackDown!, believe it or not), at least people would be able to tell the two apart now.

Primo Colon is so talented, but just doesn't find the room to show it on RAW. With the Hispanic audience SmackDown! draws, Primo could find a niche there. Yoshi Tatsu could work great matches and hopefully find a random opportunity to move up, and Regal is getting older, but could be used slightly more constructively on SmackDown!.

**St. Jimmy** · 12-21-2010, 11:02 AM

Who cares about the Divas? Get them off TV or give them their own show. No one cares.

**Nowhere Man** · 12-21-2010, 11:11 AM

If they're going to be on the show, and let's face it, the Divas division isn't going away any time soon, then I'm glad that they're at least giving the focus and attention to the Divas that can actually put on a halfway decent match. Laycool are annoying as fuck on the mic, but they're not half bad in the ring, and Natalya and Beth Phoenix are both really good workers, so they've at least got that going.

To back up what Noid said, I'd love to see WWE pick up some of the better TNA Knockouts like Awesome Kong, bring back Tara/Victoria. Maybe someone with a drastically different gimmick from the usual Divas stuff (like Daffney) to shake things up a bit.

**Nicky Fives** · 12-21-2010, 11:41 AM

Zack Ryder and Ted DiBiase.....

**DLVH84** · 12-21-2010, 12:00 PM

Hire more female WRESTLERS, not more lingerie models that don't know a wristlock from a wrist watch (yes, I'm talking to you, Johnny Ace)

My thoughts exactly. Is he isnt in as great of shape as he was in the Blue Bloods or when he won the King of the Ring a few years back, but he could still outwrestle 90% of the WWE roster with one arm tied behind his back

**Ermaximus** · 12-21-2010, 01:55 PM

Yes, the WWE need more wrestlers like this.

Because we all know that if you don't look like that, you aren't a wrestler.

William Regal has "that" kind of a body that, even if he hits the gym hard, he won't change much...he's not that genetically gifted. He's had the same body, more or less, his whole career.

I did notice he was looking a bit unsightly on RAW, but once he started to wrestle, I didn't really care.

Regal's get-up isn't about his physique, anyway...it's more about his in-ring ability and character.

However, I DO believe his physique has hurt him in terms of getting pushed.

**Supreme Olajuwon** · 12-21-2010, 03:03 PM

Of course Adam Evans himself is pretty fat too, so that would make a lot of sense.

From Death of WCW, page 278:

Quote:

To give an idea of how much of a joke the company became to even their most loyal followers, one Thunder taping in 2000 featured a fan holding up a sign that read "I'M AT A WCW EVENT" while wearing a bag over his head. That wasn't the only sign-related comedy. A man named Peter Goldschmidt sued another man, Robert Catell, for appearing on WCW telecasts holding up various derogatory signs, including "PETER GOLDSCHMIDT LOSER 4 LIFE.
