I wish they would have gone with Tensai as the challenger at No Way Out instead of Ziggler. Ziggler could have gotten his shot to look good later but Tensai still only had one loss at the time and was fresh removed from pinfall victories over Punk and Cena. He could have seemed like a legit threat.

Hell, even when he was talking week after week, it was awful. he was more monotonous than Jack Thwagger, and even worse spoken. I think the paper bag gimmick was the best thing he had going, ever. It stuck, the crowd (despite booing the heel) LOVED the interaction of being bagged. |

They could have done so much more with that gimmick. I had the idea a while ago of him doing a Phantom of the Opera type of thing for a while where he'd kidnap divas and take them to a dark room only to lift his mask and ask them if he looked hideous. It would have kept some depth to his character to have him so obsessed with his looks that he thinks he's disfigured long after the broken nose has healed.
Once he was done with that gimmick he kinda went back to being a generic heel with a scrawny frame and black tights. |

Commercials and recaps. I tend to be online or writing while watching, so I'm only half-paying attention through most of the show unless something catches my ear.

Del Rio was so fresh and new when he came in and he seemed like he was gonna be a huge deal.
Then as time went on he became horribly bland and repetitive on the mic. So much charisma, great look, can put on a fine match... just has no originality on the mic. So generic. |

Del Rio needs someone interesting to feud with that can bring out the best in him. Even a non-wrestling Edge could be great -- with Edge trying to find someone to kick Del Rio's ass.

Sheamus should have been that guy. Didn't stop Del Rio's promos from being same old same old. Neither did Edge actually come to think of it. Or Punk. Or Cena. Actually it seems like ever since his original feud with Mysterio he's been exposed in his promos.

I never understood the Edge "hype", and still don't.

Divas Match, and unless the Main event is actually different and interesting or I think something significant might happen, I fast forward through that too.

Del Rio vs. Ryback could actually be an interesting feud, providing that they don't have Ryback beat Del Rio eight times in the exact same match. Del Rio's suave but dangerous persona would contrast well against Ryback's "no frills" dynamic. Also, seeing Ryback Shell Shock Ricardo could be a lot of fun.

For about a month now, I've more or less Fast Forwarded through pretty much any CM Punk promo. We get it, your anti establishment, you read smarks web sites and that Camacho should be US Champion right now
