Why The Stardust Gimmick Should Be Dropped



With the unfortunate passing of the hall of famer Dusty Rhodes, the wrestling world was flipped upside down. However, with a loss comes a silver lining of hope. Dusty’s son Cody is saddled with a terrible gimmick like Stardust. Cody Rhodes is a highly talented wrestler who deserves to be higher up the card. With superb in ring ability and good mic skills, he has the opportunity to be alot more in WWE. Cody Rhodes has untapped potential and many see him as a world champion in the futureif given the proper booking.To those who say that Cody Rhodes can’t get over with the crowd are completely blind. In 2013, he faced Randy Orton in a win or get fired match.After he lost the match, he cut a heartfelt promo on the authority and was pissed off at the world because of how people in WWE treated the Rhodes family. When he teamed with Goldust as the Rhodes Brothers,he was one of the most popular superstars in the company.  He and Goldust were so over that they were able to main event Raw for the tag team championships and got a huge pop when he got the pin for his team.  WWE needs to learn from the past: Cody by himself can be a star, but with great booking, He can be a BIG star.

Dean Ambrose has always been a better babyface than Roman Reigns

Dean Ambrose is one of the most over babyfaceas in WWE wrestling today. His natural charisma combined with his wrestling ability has fans gravitate towards him. No matter how he has been booked by WWE, fans go crazy for him and love to see him win. Like a Dolph Ziggler and Daniel Bryan, he just has that underdog fight spirit that fans can get behind. Then we go to Roman Reigns. I am actually a fan of Reigns and I think some of the criticism he gets is ridiculous ( he is more than just the Rocks cousin ). However, Roman Reigns is just overall not a main event superstar right now. When he talks on the mic, 7/10 times it is terrible and cringe worthy. He just sounds so wooden and scripted. Dean Ambrose,on the other hand, is great on the mic and his promos never sound scripted. Even when they were in the shield, Ambrose and Rollins always did the talking and reigns just stands there and look intimidating. Now as for matches, Reigns has not had alot of one on one  matches that...

Braun Strowman Makes His Glorious Return

Image
On Mondays Raw, The main event was Samoa Joe Vs Roman Reigns and it was a good and competitive match. Reigns and Joe are going back and forth having the fans wondering who is going to be the man that beats the other. Just when it looked like Reigns had Joe beat, you heard a sound of a ambulance truck in the background. The horn kept getting louder and louder until the camera pans tot he backstage and you see a ambulance roll up. Who was it in that truck? No other than Braun Strowman who emerges out of the truck to a huge ovation from the crowd. He marches and storms to the ring to engage Reigns but while his back was turned, Joe took advantage of the situation and put him in the choke-hold. With nowhere to go, Reigns is done and out cold completely. But, it was about to get ten times worse when Joe exited the ring and here came Strowman enter the ring. Strowman enters the ring and proclaims that he is back and is not DONE WITH ROMAN REIGNS. Then, he proceeded to pick Lesnar up...

Why Sami Zayn Deserves Better

Sami Zayn deserves better than what he is getting especially since he is one of the best wrestlers on the roster. Zayn started off in NXT as the underdog that the crowd had alot of sympathy for. Sami Zayn has been a hard worker and a excellent wrestler for the WWE since debuting full-time on the main roster. That night in Montreal when he debut against John Cena in the U.S open challenge was one of the best debuts for a rookie I have seen a long time. The crowd was fully behind Sami Zayn and even though he lost and suffered a injury ( next time, dont wave your arms so crazy), he went toe to toe with cena and showed everybody just how good he was. Ever since then, Zayn has not been doing as well as I thought he would be and thats mainly due to the booking of WWE. Even though he is in a better position than most guys are, the fact that someone like Jinder Mahal who was a jobber for years up until like 3 weeks ago can win a championship, but Zayn cant? That just shows the ridicul...
