I don't know if I'd say the Rock was brought on slowly. He won the IC title less than 3 months after his debut, and they wanted to push his ass to the moon. It was only after the fans showed that they hated him that the WWE pulled back on his push.

There are very few people in WWE right now that I would flat out say are "awful" because who knows what talent they might actually have that WWE is suppressing? Between limiting people's movesets due to wanting them to wrestle a certain style, and not letting anyone's natural charisma shine through because every single line of theirs is scripted, there might be someone that we think of as a gigantic bore that would actually be great if given an opportunity to just go out there and wing it.

Is it just me or does anyone else see Neville and think of the movie series The Hobbit,and I've only seen the trailers.

even if he will be we all know (well except for you & your blinders) that he is going to get it more for his bloodlines than his in-ring and promo ability

I was finally able to land the 2009 Price Devitt (Finn Baylor) BBM auto. To my knowledge, it's his first certified auto. Here are the two I have: 2009 and 2011. (Not sure if a 2010 exists or not) Sorry for the different sized pics!

2009 (on-card auto #56/82)

2011 (sticker auto #08/90)

fazzle · 04-13-2015, 03:20 PM

On the one hand, getting those early Devitt autos is definitely cool, but on the other hand, man are those cards ugly.

BoxBreaker72 · 04-13-2015, 05:37 PM

Well, judging by the raw spoilers for tonight I think I am passing on the show.

Sounds like another snooze fest

Great pickups.

Although I haven't seen it, I think he has a #/60 auto in the 2008 NJPW set.

You may be right. Those older sets are extremely hard to locate these days.

I'm not a big fan of the newest BBM smaller 36-card regional sets. The sets seem to get bought up by dealer-flippers to sell off the auto cards, so there are not a whole lot of sets/singles floating around on the secondary market.

They're VERY hard to find, even on yahoo auction Japan. If you see something here, gotta jump on it quick. Big card shops like Mint don't event carry them.

I opted to come into work and grade 300 late assignments... WWE has really blown all momentum out of Mania.

I guess that's one way to get Reigns over - have no one care or watch your product to boo him... GENIUS!

Namttip · 04-13-2015, 08:53 PM

Wow... over 90 minutes since last post and not one comment about RAW tonight...

fazzle · 04-13-2015, 08:56 PM

Well it's taped. People don't comment as much when they know what to expect in advance

Ty Hope · 04-13-2015, 08:56 PM

They're blowing it already. The intrigue from post mania is diminishing.

Screw wwe, I'm going to a DDT show next week in Tokyo. THEY know how to entertain.

The PTP may be adlibbing... mentioning that Primo and Epico are Puerto Rican (they are) and bullfighters...

Only tonight was, Next week is Live. They tape when they go overseas or if they have holidays they will really tape a weeks worth of shows the week before.

As far as RAW goes. Tonight was actually good Emma getting screwed out of a heel turn isn't good but even Show attack on Reigns setting up a likely blow off Last Man Standing was good, Everything from top to bottom clicked.

Honest question: How long before a catchphrase can be deemed failed?

Belee dat.
