Shout-out to TJ and O'Shea for this pod.(thinking O'Shea just might be high..lol) I didn't even catch that Majin reference by Kofi. To his point, the crowd was so off with the booing that I thought the boos were piped in... :lol:

Glad Kevin Owens and New Day are showing how to be real heels in this day and age when people say it is harder than back in the day.

I think people stayed heels longer than back in the day. Like someone like Gunther...heel all day and all year. Thats who he is. I can't really see Gunther as a face because of his wrestling style. Like I said before, he reminds of a cross between Bob Backlund and Lord Steven Regal with less charisma. I guess they could get him involved in some love triangle angle where some chick is running all over him or she's using him and then he wakes up and turns on her and gets over with the fans. I don't know..but Triple H knows what he's doing.

Curious to see if Toni Storm can be as over with her old character as she was with the "Timeless" character.
I know a lot of people hated it, but I loved the "'Timeless" character.
Her old character was boring to me but now that we know she has some personality maybe she will change it up a bit now.
Although I wasn't a fan of her "Timeless" character, it was a character.

What is Toni's old character supposed to be anyways? I just see a thick white girl in a leather jacket and eye black on her face.

Gunther can be a face so long as he's comedic. Think Arnold as Kindergarten Cop vs Arnold as the Terminator.

Hell, Lesnar was hilarious when he was doing comedy shit with Kurt Angle back in the day.

You think Gunther has that in him? putting him with someone like they did Steve Blackman (no personality)...im convinced that Malenko could have gotten over if they did this as well.

I do. When he showed humor with Bret Hart a few months ago mentioning Goldberg to his face, we all thought that shit was hilarious. If they pushed him like an arrogant funny heel, similar to Kurt Angle when he debuted with his "it's True, It's True" gimmick, that will eventually make fans go from hating him to loving him as a face.

Right now, his character is stale and boring, but if he's allowed to show some comedic elements as a heel, fans will get behind him for his eventual face turn.

People don't REALLY want to be hated today that's why. As for Gunther he is a throwback, but I think HHH sees himself or at least Killer Kowalski in Gunther. Kowalski was HHH's trainer.

Yeah Gunther seems like he could do good with the quick quips. I don't think he should try to be The Rock or anything though.

A punk rock chick??? I have no clue what her gimmick was supposed to be.
I just don't see her being as popular going back to this old gimmick. She should have stayed with the "Timeless" character.

Yes, I think Gunther can show more personality and range of character as a babyface.
So far he's just been presented as a stone-faced fighter that beats everybody.
It looks like WWE is slowly transitioning him into a face by him showing vulnerability instead of just being a "wrestler's wrestler".
His interactions with Bret Hart and Goldberg showed me that he has more range to his character.

The Chelsea Green and Bayley match was lame as fuck. It looked like Bayley was going through the motions and trying to let her win and she just wasn't. Terrible execution.
It's clear they're giving Chelsea Green the belt because she's gotten over with the fans because of her character and not necessarily because of her wrestling ability, which is basic as fuck.

Yeah I hated her timeless but shit I didn’t even know this was a gimmick lol. Take the black and white effect off and put on a SnapBack and she’s the forgettable character she was in WWE.
