The fed media really tried to convince everyone that him going over Cena really meant something and would cement him as THE heel. Few weeks later it's back to crickets. Grim.
>>
Yet you made this thread
>>
>>19598207
the good will era is over and the fed fans aren't really playing along anymore. this guy sucks and everyone knows it
>>
>>19598207
>unless someone gets ultra heat every single time they appear on screen the long term angle is a huge failure
Obese smark things

>>19598207
Is this that dude that hits the 67? What's next, is gonna dab and hit the nae nae?
>>
>>19598207

>already fumbled
that's actually impressive
>>
>>19598243
I wasn't here yesterday. Link to thread?
>>
>>19598207
WOAT look when he's not wearing a jacket or suit. Also they had to pipe in boos on RAW and any heat he gets in the future will just be towards Triple KWABOTY again.
>>
>>19598207
it's hilarious that main roster fans now straight up actively dislike any wrestler that isn't some Zack Ryder type shitter
every time I look I see them coming up with some new bizarre shit like comparing Sami Zayn to WCW Hogan
>>
>>19598337
smarks killed the game

How long until they start openly turning on the show again?
>>
>>19598354
they booed the ending of john fucking cena's retirement. it's already happening
>>
Turning him into Austrian Miz for a few weeks just to pad out time until the new year was a genius move. Especially right after he tapped out John Cena, one of the toppest of top guys of all time.

wwe posting him doing 67 meme is retarded and just shows how awful the presentation of wrestlers is nowadays
>>
>>19598348
I don't even know what "smark" means anymore because I'd also be called a smark for saying I really like Gunther, Sami, etc and like to see them pushed
>>
>>19598394
imagine if they posted the undertaker doing the caramelldansen after retiring hbk
>>
>>19598411
those guys are shit so yeah
>>
>>19598411
yes those are quite literally smark bait wrestlers
>>
>>19598230
Subhuman smarks believe making a few tweets and /pw/ threads cancels out the video evidence of Raw crowds making huge amounts of noise
Yes, they're really that retarded and delusional
>>
>>19598467
>video evidence
Most mark bullshit I've ever read lmao
>>
>>19598467
You have heard boo.mp3 a thousand times by now, how can you not distinguish it?
>>
>>19598500
because of >>19598467
>video evidence

Unless you want to sit there like a brain-damaged retard and claim the audience cupping their hands around their mouth, wildly waving a thumbs down, are making 10 dB of noise and boo.mp3 is making 100 db

Everytime I see someone call WWE the fed I think of either the U.S. federal reserve or federal government
It’s contributing to my psychosis where everything I read feels political. Like if I scroll down a page on 4chan fast I see the words “circumcision” and “Israel”
>>
>>19598513
of course there is some noise, they just add to it
and you know they can show any fan in the arena out of thousands right?
you act like the whole place is going nuts and thats not remotely true
>>
>>19598451
>>19598464
Why are they bad?
What makes a non-smarkbait wrestler?
Can something be smarkbait and still good?
Please answer honestly.
>>
>>19598550
they are boring and have no charisma or muscles
>>
>>19598243
Gonna bump & make this thread again tomorrow kek
>>
>>19598560
Why are they boring? Why do you think Sami Zayn has no charisma? In the case of a foreign career heel like Gunther, shouldn't it be an asset that he's weird, creepy and evil-looking rather than traditionally charismatic?
>>
>>19598539
So we have gone from
>nobody cares
to now the standard is that 100% of fans in the arena need to be booing and reacting negatively?

This is just performative retardation, you don't believe this at all, you're just being a retard for retardation's sake.
>>
>>19598550
A smarkbait wrestlers is a wrestlers whose gimmick is "I'm a good wrestler". Wrestlers who are patrician non-smarkbait wrestlers are usually big men who have charisma and magnetism (aura for zoomers) and can wrestle, cut a promo and look good. Example are McIntyre, Reigns, Miz, Ryback, Breakker etc.
>>
>>19598607
Nobody does care, a couple fans playing along because they paid 1000 for a seat doesn't change that
>>
>>19598607
ultimately little has come from it
he was always getting a good heel reaction in the ballpark of what he's actually getting now
>>
>>19598607
Dom & Logan Paul can’t even do promos sometimes because the crowds are booing them that voraciously, Gunther’s just boring, sorry that bothers you so much
>>
>>19598665
>>19598658
>>19598655
I repeat
>Subhuman smarks believe making a few tweets and /pw/ threads cancels out the video evidence of Raw crowds making huge amounts of noise

But keep it up guys, I'm sure your delusional shitposting on /pw/ will become the prevailing opinion any minute now

It's booking on autopilot. They're milking the fallout of the retirement match as much as they can instead of building on it. Not only did HHH (and Cena too but he's not the CCO) fail to realize that he wasn't "doing what's best for this business" by tainting the legacy of a major figure in WWE history, he's failing to realize that the heat generated by the controversial finish has begun to cool down and the moment to capitalize on it has passed.

Gunther is one of the best performers in the world, but his character has changed for the worse over this. He was effectively built up as a dominant heel with his understated Nazi gimmick leading his European Axis-powers stable. He was portrayed throughout his IC title run as a psychotically obsessed competitor committed to showcasing his superiority over everyone on the roster. His classical style in the ring, his theme songs, and the imagery used during his entrance all complemented each other and reinforced his hardass image. Things started to stall for him after he lost the IC belt and the Creative Department didn't know what to do, but he was still very over as a heel. He got the WHC, and I liked how they portrayed him after he lost the gimmicky champion-vs-champion Saudi title match to Cody after a flash roll-up. He acknowledged the L with humility and he was eager to show off his superiority asap. That character gradually disappeared over time as HHH lost track of it. Now we have this gloating trash talker doing the "you can't see me" gesture before moving to leave the arena for three weeks straight, totally uncharacteristic of the guy I just described above. HHH doesn't know what the fuck he's doing, and Gunther's heat is gonna vanish just like Otis after he called him out.

Yours is the smark opinion, think of a new pejorative because it doesn't work with what you have been saying in all these threads.
>>
>>19598682
Everything I've ever stated has come true so yeah nobody gives a fuck about gunther and he will never be a big star. sorry kid
>>
>>19598715
heels are supposed to be guys you love to hate, not guys you actually hate. they're playing a dangerous game here, a lot of their fans genuinely dont like him now

>>19598745
>loses argument
>seethes and posts something gay
>>
>>19598682
This has to be a gimmick, nobody is this much a simp for Austrian chop man
>>
>>19598207
