Ok different strokes I guess then. I'd much rather watch her steal hats, harass the broadcast crew, douse herself in beverages, and throw empty cans at crew members than what we normally get from the divas.

Not saying its highbrow content, but its better than nothing, which is what we get from most of the divas (or guys for that matter).

well yeah. But it's still already stale. It's a creative problem moreso than a talent problem IMO. Lita wasn't fun to watch because of her mic skills, but they teamed her up with the Hardy Boyz, Kane and then Edge, making all the difference in the world. Trish had storylines built around her. She valeted for Test and Albert, had an affair with Vince, the whole thing with Jericho and Christian, etc. They simply aren't doing anything with the Divas division.

I would absolutely mark the hell out of Punk came back tomorrow, and even more if Sting showed up at all.

That would be bigger than Bryan at this point.

I have no idea if Punk comes back tomorrow or not.

But what I do know is that wrestlers don't stay retired.

Alicia Fox simply took AJ's gimmick. Now she's the bat**** crazy diva. AJ did it better IMO.

Someone needs to be working with the younger talent on their mic skills, but I think that can be fixed. In the few matches I've seen of Paige, she's pulled off some impressive wrestling moves. I'd much rather see them devote time to developing a diva with her talent than watch a rehash of an already used gimmick.

I honestly wish Shane McMahon would return to the WWE. I always respected how far he would go to sell the product. I think he went even further than Vince.

If she's trying to replicate AJ, she's failing miserably. And I'm only talking from a character standpoint. AJ, IMO, sold a spoiled brat character brilliantly. Alicia is just playing crazy. It can't last. The spoiled brat could.

AJ is like what I said about Trish and Lita. They sold her with Punk, Bryan and Kane. Then she wrapped herself around how important the belt was to her. The only other diva with a storyline right now is Summer Rae trying to get Fandango back.

They could have more matches for the divas IMO.... the bull fighters and 3MB could give back their time lol!!! Need to have these girls escort more guys to the ring so they can be seen!

That's what I've been saying all along. Sable...Chyna...Lita...Trish...Stephanie...even Stacie Keibler...all got over because they were involved regularly in storylines with the men. Didn't hurt the men. There was none of this nonsense where they pretend like the men and women are in different worlds. And, for the most part, it wasn't the silly high school stuff that we see now when we see Daniel Bryan with Brie or Eve Torres with Zack Ryder.

I know they're PG now, but they don't have to have male on female violence.

Like if Punk came back...they could involve him right away with AJ/Paige. He could make himself heel, saying he left because the fans annoyed him seeking autographs etc (which would have some shoot to it), and say the only reason he came back was to make sure his girlfriend got her belt back. He could even threaten Paige without actually doing something to her. Its heat for him, and generates sympathy for her.

actually, if they went with that storyline, it would be wife. They are getting married sometime in June. Neither will return until after that, if CM Punk comes back at all.

I don't remember the last time i saw blood in a WWE match.

Me either, sadly. I want to say it was probably at Tripe H or HBK match the last time I can remember seeing it. I just really feel like it could bring something else to the Wyatt/Cena story. Being that Bray's gimmick is to be insane, blood would hammer that home. Also wouldn't mind seeing some in the Shield/Evolution match up.

I'm rewatching Punk-Cena MitB. I doubt there will ever be a better reception for a wrestler.

I seriously feel like grown men were yelling "CENA SUCKS" directly at their young children

Like I can picture fathers turning to their own children yelling "let's go Cena" and just shutting them down
