    McIntyre better not win MITB at Wrestlemania.

    I've just noticed that Kofi Kingston isn't on the card. Amazing considering the massive push he received in November. It just shows how much influence certain RAW main eventers have on booking.

    Maybe he's the 10th man in the MITB ladder match?

    Possible, not like it'd matter, Drew McIntyre is pretty much a dead on cert for that win, even if he's possibly the least over person in the company (Along with Sheamus).

    kingston went from the next big thing to nobody in a blink of an eye

    imo, what a shame.

    A massive shame indeed, he was over with the fans and would have been a much needed main event face. Instead, they pushed Sheamus who nobody cares about.

    Hopefully Kofi gets moved onto Smackdown with Evan Bourne and Jack Swagger, maybe that way they get a chance, because with Trips, Orton and Cena running the RAW boat, there's no way they are getting any form of push any time soon.

    Another thing, is the Orton/Legacy match a triple threat or handicap match? Because as far as I know, Legacy haven't split yet? Or is it just another booking botch?

    i believe orton vs legacy is a handicap match

    Possible opening for Kofi then, considering Orton seems to be sliding into becoming face (Which is pretty lame, he's got the personality of a brick).

    with the way they book things, a kofi addition is possible
    i think it would be CRAP, but it wouldnt shock me in the least

    Kissing butt in the wrestling business goes a long way, atleast in WWE it does.

    True that, look at Elijah Burke, he didn't kiss ass, they tried to put him in the spirit squad then gave him a crappy boxer gimmick in ECW. TNA takes him, give him good gimmick and now he's one of the most over faces in Wrestling.

    Like you said in WWE, Talent doesn't equal success.

    Honestly, in my opinion, ROH is the place to be if you don't want your time wasted. In WWE, you can have all the talent in the world BUT if you are not kissing ass, they'll shove you to the side and push someone who is kissing butt and has already had their moment in the spotlight. In TNA, as long as Hogan and Bischoff are there, I don't see the younger talent getting a chance. They'll continue to push over the hill talent that had their moment in the spotlight 10-15 years ago. ROH on the other hand, your time will not be wasted there. You can go to WWE or TNA from ROH, get buried in one of those two promotions, go back to ROH and have your career be reborn.

    So Kofi finally gets his slot. Too bad it still obvious that Drew McIntyre is going to get the briefcase :\.

    I hate Sheamus...where in the Hell did he come from? I don't get how he all of a sudden showed up and became the Champion....he sucks big time. :icon_evil:

    he was on ECW, but from what Ive read, He trains with HHH and thats why he got the massive push

    He spent three months in ECW, spent a month beating up jobbers on Raw, then suddenly won a No.1 contender battle royale and got a weak victory at TLC.

    Like MikeTSZ said, him and Trips are BFFL.

    he's squashed Evan Bourne twice which just kills me

    Same. WWE really doesn't know how to utilize such an outstanding talent. You can give me the reason about mic work, but are the RAW main eventers any better?

    Same with Morrison, sure he needs a gimmick, but hell, he knows how to put a show on.
     
  20. Shameus needs a shirt or something. He is the whitest thing ever
