SPEAR SPEAR SPEAR SPEAR
 

Is it just me, or is that chant, and to a degree face Edge, just irritating? I mean, Edge is one of my favorites, I've loved his work for quite some time, but the pimping of that chant is just absolutely killing me.

Plus, his feud with Jericho is completely one sided...which, for me, isn't selling shit. I know they want to put Edge over big time as a face, but Jericho, your World Champion, needs to look a little credible doesn't he?

He utilizes the move called a "spear", and can manage to knock the wind out of his opponents long enough to ensure victory, even against this mammoth "Big Show". Who, by the way, utilizes a spear himself but never seems to earn victory with it.

This is a most curious phenomenon. Perhaps, being smaller, Edge also has more of an "edge" to his shoulder, if you will pardon the pun.

:lol:

meh I liked Edge better as a heel but face Edge doesn't bother me too much atleast he's more entertaining than John Cena who has become far too stale a face and needs a heel turn really soon

I know they are playing up the spear thing big because they are really digging for some conflict in this feud, but I have to tell you that the spear on Big Show was one of the most retarded things I've ever seen.

I think he's extremely lame as a face, and I hope he loses at Mania, gets drafted to RAW and turns heel.

My girlfriend and I were talking about how annoying face Edge is tonight. Surely there's something else they can base this feud around.

Hmm, weird.

Last time I saw Edge was a couple weeks ago, and was loving his antihero face character (e.g. spearing anyone that bah gawd moves e.g. Taker, Jericho). Has he changed since then?

He's a spastic who can't go two sentences without mentioning spearing someone at press time.

From what I can tell, all he's doing differently is getting the crowd to chant "spear"

Didn't the whole "spear" thing just start last week??

I'm trying to be accepting of this. It's so much harder to be a face without coming off as totally lame (especially in the PG environment), but I still can't see why people would want to get behind this. Apparently though, they are. I guess people really just love to chant stuff.

Yeah, and it's already annoying as shit.

lol I don't really see anything wrong with the chant. I mean, he's meant to be a face, after all.

Even outside of the 'spear' thing, he used a dated joke from Happy Gilmore and accused the Big Show of having bad breath. Come on.

I'd rather hear "spear" chants than the stupid "WHAT?" chants, or even worse, no reaction at all.

His spear isn't even that devestating. Looking back at Edge's career, tons of people have kicked out of that thing.

Well, regardless, his match with Jericho at Mania will be awesome and at the end of the day, that's all I care about.

I agree with that, but it still doesn't have the feel of a Wrestlemania match. The build up is just as important with the biggest show of the year.

Really, this is only slightly better than Chris Jericho cleaning up Stephanie's dog's poop leading up to Wrestlemania.

Ugh, why are faces so lame all the time? It seems like the only people who have it down to where they can be babyfaces and not annoying are Christian and Kofi Kingston.

There's a little over 3 weeks before Mania, I'm certain the feud has time to pick up some steam.

You're talking speculation. I'm going on what we've actually seen.

Even still, the build up will feel forced. Jericho's been champ for only a couple weeks, and Edge was out of action for...what, like nine months?

I'm glad Jericho's the champ. I'm glad Edge is back. I'm looking forward to the actual match between the two of them at Wrestlemania. Having said that, the build up is still lacking and Edge is really fucking annoying as a face.

Yeah, you mentioned that.

it's fine, you unnecessarily bitchy people

I was just reiterating.

Bitching about bitching. Nice.

better than bitching about everything :)

Point for Skippord

I said this would happen, but nobody believed me. :p

lol at the wrestling forum's bullshit

Spend years complaining about Edge/Jericho not being in Wrestlemania main events, and when they are it's not good enough.

What's next? Complaining about HHH not being in the main event despite bitching for years and years that he always is?
Oh wait, that's already going on on here.

I want new faces to hold the WWE title....Sheamus sucks.

Point for Jeritron

The crowd's are dead....I don't like what they're chanting

I wish Bret would come back....they're wasting Bret's return.

I can't wait until the Monday after Wrestlemania...

Regardless of the outcome of Edge/Jericho it should be funny.
Edge wins: "Jericho is being misused. He's a jobber to the stars"
Jericho wins: "What was the point of Edge winning the Rumble? What a waste"

that's TPWW for ya

lol

its true; good thread

Can't wait for the "I miss Sheamus" threads. Or "Why did they depush Sheamus?" in a few months if and when they finally get their way

If this is the worst that Edge does as a face, I am fine with it. At least they didn't "John Morrison" him, and just be a happy, smily babyface. He still has his "edge" so to speak.
