Seriously, who did he piss off in creative to the point it seems like he'll NEVER get that championship push? He's insanely over, but it'll never happen
>>19811192He clearly rubs people the wrong way, vince is the only one who would respect his confidence, the others want a bootlicker
>>19811192It's because he is open about the fact his biggest influences are stone cold and Rock, the 2 guys who always outshone triple H no matter how hard Vince pushed him, therefore Paul being the petty no talent hack he is is burying LA knight because he's not the typical "wow Brett and Shawn were the best ever yes sir, love me some workrate" simps that Paul is used to dealing with, also he has a better physique than Paul
>>19811206>He clearly rubs people the wrong wayyeah he's talked about it before. On Cody's podcast, even.
>>19811192He has two major issues>phones it in when he doesn't get what he wants>rilies up fans to try to force a push like when he grabbed the "we want LA not jey uso" sign, which they HATE, and has gotten others like Dakota Kai and Karrion Kross releasedIn their eyes he's a loose cannon who shouldn't be rewarded.The reason they've waited so long isn't to see whether he can stay over with the fans, it was to see whether LA Knight can behave himself. Which he hasn't.
>>19811232>Getting the fans behind you is badDrone programming
>>19811238I didn't say it's bad, but there's a clear pattern here that shows they don't like it and people who do it are punishedI sort of understand it. You don't want a whole roster of people shooting on each other and management to get over
>>19811192cause triiple h has anxiety attacks every time he looks at him with how he radiates stone cold and the rocks aura
what's so special about LA Knight anyways? His visual aesthetics scream generic copycat that never truly stands out from the crowds. CM Punk stands out from the rest of the crowd in terms of visual aesthetics.
>>19811248Hey paul, kill yourself
>>19811248>CM Punk stands out from the rest of the crowdHe literally looks like he could be in the crowd
kino thread combo>>19811248He represents a dying breed of authentic white guy midcarder face chasing after a world title. Sami doesn't count because he's a tryhard and has the imshallah hobo gimmick.I feel like they brought Matt Cardona back to intentionally dilute LA Knight but it's not really working.
>>19811192Unless you are an already established star (ergo Vince-era stars, ergo the only stars they have) you have to make some kind of personal connection with Paul to get pushed if you know what I mean.
>>19811261the only effect Zack Ryder has is dilluting Chelsea Green's push and the goods that came with her getting pushed of sorts for the years she worked for the WWE and Ryder didn't.
>>19811248>what's so special about LA Knight anyways?He's like a Temu version of the Rock and wrestling has fallen so far that Temu Rock seems pretty good.
>>19811192In Paul's New Era, you need to be fit at least one of these criterias to get a world title:1) Former established Legend (Bork, Punk)2) A pet project of Paul (Seth)3) A coconut clan member (Roman and his cousins)He dosent check any of these
>>19811192Triple H doesn't like him. Seff doesn't seem to either.
>>19811192How many threads do you have to make before you just accept he's a midcarder, forever will be, no MitB win or Elimination win will change it
>>19811192Bruce Prichard>>19811594True
>>19811603I forgot, he's one of the guys Becko wanted before she settled for Seff so yeah he's always going to be cooked.
>>19811192midget Damien Sandow has more annoying simps than any female wrestler and also botches more than they do kwab
>>19811217Good point.He’s definitely ripping from Austin and Rock which is no doubt giving Haitch PTSD
>>19811192I watched Unreal and he pissed them all off when he fucked up the MITB finish with Seth
>>19811192HHH decides who wins the belts. Rest of "Creative" is there to make backstage comedy skits and to give the public and shareholders the impression of a big time sports entertainment TV show with writers even though rasslin doesn't really need that.
>>19811206>vince is the only one who would respect his confidenceretard, vince was the one who made him a male valet to gay jobbers.
I've reached a point where I don't want to see him or Sami in a world title match because it's a waste of fucking time
>>19811192LA Knight: botches once.>Gets buried by HHHIyo Sky: botches shit over and over>Rockstar.
>>19812784Hello friend, the great Max Dupri was no valet, he was President and Founder of top talent agency representing Maximum Male Models.
>>19812794Drew beating I'm Muslim for attention Zayn in Saudi is the perfect end to Sami's career.
>>19811248> The last chad white guy wrestler who isn't a heel or giving off divisive Andrew Tate vibes (important when most of the audience now are politically centre to left)> More gen X alpha male vibes than AEW or Cody's millennial numales (this is why Unreal showed him crying btw, to try ruin that vibe and expose it as a character), doesn't feel like some weird political proxy character so isn't divisive (see above), less corporatised than Cody/Cena/Roman> Good size and build, reasonably conventionally attractive to female fans but not so much so that he makes male fans insecure> Solid wrestler with a simple easy finisher and easy repeatable catchphrases > Can talk better than 90% of WWEs signings since 2005 because he studied the rhythm, cadence and structure of top promo guys and learned how to do the style> Wrestling is built on underdogs, he's never been champ so is still completely sympathetic but has the screen presence to avoid falling into Sami Zayn "my janitor /barista/IT worker neighbour with his shirt off" territoryHe's a textbook example of how even a late bloomer can put it all together if they have the right look, natural charisma, and enough presence of mind to borrow from top predecessors with enough self confidence to bend it to fit their natural self and own experiences.And the big reason he's never going to get the belt is this is EXACTLY who HHH always wanted to be. The solid throwback who passes the eye test and through a combo of effort, studying the game, and natural fan connection, becomes someone the crowd want as The Guy. But HHH never had that connection and never will, so tries to prove it's not a thing with constant tease-and-deny booking so that if fans give up on him he can say he never had it and was just lucky/a ripoff/protest vote/only over with the right booking.Don't underestimate how insecure or petty HHH is. He's not changed since 2002.
>>19811192he can’t be trusted in the big moments. sorry LAbros but it’s true
>>19811192He won't kiss Paul's ass. Hopefully the fans get behind him more and force it but the problem with that is he's having trouble winning over smarks. They should though, it would stop things from getting stagnant and would be a "for the greater good" thing.
>>19813108He was against Paul's boy Bill DeMott back when he was first there. He came back and was saddled with the the Max Duppri shit but made it work and then they let him repackage himself as LA Knight to massive success. HHH has it out for him but will keep giving him bullshit tests to pass and one slight hiccup is enough for them to keep dangling that carrot.
>>19811192If he is still as bad in-ring as he was in TNA, that's why he isn't getting pushed. I know not being good in-ring isn't the hindrance in WWE like it would be anywhere else as the actual wrestling takes a backseat to everything else but this guy was legit the drizzling shits in-ring.
>>19811192la knight fucking sucks
>>19811238Right?REEEEEEEE! HOW DARE YOU SHOW SOME INITIATIVE AND CULTIVATE VIEWERSHIP! THAT'S OUR JOB, NOW WEAR THIS TUTU AND GO SHUCK AND JIVE!
>>19813141He came back as LA Knight first before Max Dupri
did they even announce his elimination
>>19812722That was on Seth too since that hope spot is supposed to be for the hard cam and Seth was in the wrong position for it
La knight a cuck fuck him he’s a jobber
>>19813093>fuckin this.
>>19811261>I feel like they brought Matt Cardona back to intentionally dilute LA KnightThe WWE knew darn well that us Cardona fans have backed this guy forever. You know who I was backing as one of my top guys before he came back? L.A. Knight. So naturally they had Cardona job to Knight for his first real match back. They managed to find a way to make sure none of the fans were pleased with that one.
>>19811192
>>19811192I am not an LA Knight fan but even I'm starting to feel sorry for him and his fans.
>>19811248>CM Punk stands out from the rest of the crowd in terms of visual aesthetics.he's the most CAW looking faggot I've ever seen in my life>yeah, then I'll tape my fists, and put an "X" on it, yeah, that'll look so cool, I'm a genius
>>19811192He's a good upper card & sometimes main eventer. Not everyone can be THE guy. I do think he'll get a world title run eventually, perhaps money in the bank briefcase this year?If absolute shitters like damien priest, jay uso, kofi & jinder had title runs, then LA should/will definitely get one. But wwe shouldn't keep waiting too long or he will lose all his heat & fans will no longer care when finally gets it done.
>>19812784that was awesome though
>>19811248>yfw you lived to see Triple Nose team up with Child Molester Phil to bury an upcoming talent
>>19813510they're literally the same guy, that's why they hate each other so much
>>19813475I don't feel sorry for him or his fans in the slightest.
>>19813499>Not everyone can be THE guy.I never want to hear this phrase uttered ever again. If Seth Rollins is good enough to be THE guy, then anyone is. The only thing Seth has going for him is being Hunter's sycophant little toady.
>>19813093His finisher sucks. It looks awkward like his animations weren’t finished. And he really isn’t that sympathetic. He’s a jacked loudmouth, funny as he is, his out of pocket remarks and hard strung attitude get him into trouble with heels and other babyfaces. It just wouldn’t fit if he ever cut a promo talking about how his dream is to be champion.
>>19811192That would be Tranny H.These Basically >>19811217 >>19811247 and Knight can Cut a promo,is over,better looking,no bitch tits and a Natural Baby face (The things Gaytch never was)LA Knight doesn't want do the same Humiliation Ritual as Last year's MITB>BuriedIyo "A guarantee botch every match" Sky>Live sex celebration
>>19813093>Don't underestimate how insecure or petty HHH is. He's not changed since 2002.This.He is fine pushing Roman to the moon because he can sit back and smirk and say "yeah this really is the best they have these days, huh?"There is a reason every single person he pushed in NXT was someone that he would have fucking buried as an active wrestler. Never anyone that he would look small standing next to and the people he really liked dressed like he was giving them stuff out of his own wardrobe. The only reason women are immune to this is because he dosen't feel threatened by them and for Rhea he wants to bury Chyna's legacy. He would rather never see someone succeed again than risk having his spot as the #12 guy in WWE history taken away.
>>19811245Doesn't it work better if you have fans split on which wrestlers they support though? It makes people more interested in seeing which one wins. The main risk is that one guy getting too over can hijack your show and hurt your ability to maintain coherent long-term storyline.
At this point, it feels like he's getting Dolph Zigglered.
>>19813546seth was never really the guy
>>19811192It's well documented that he doesn't like Bruce Pritchard and Michael Hayes, now move along.
>>19811206Vince gave him the gimmick of Max Dupri dude, he’s not over with him or Hunter
>>19813499I remember thinking the same about Ziggler. "He'll have his moment eventually." Then a bunch of new stars came around, many got more over than him, and he woke up one morning too old to be worth pushing at this stage of his career. Unless you're in your early 30's, you should be treating your career as a now-or-never type of thing.
>>19811192He's old
>>19813917He is constantly put in the main event and given the world title whenever he isn't injured. He is absolutely THE guy in the sense that he is Hunter's guy, which is all that really matters for getting pushed.
>>19814276There’s people on the roster older than him that get more tv time lol
I'm gonna be at RAW and I'm gonna throw fried chicken at LA KWAB
>>19814454the guy is someone like cody or roman. seth only gets pushed when roman isnt around
>>19811192He's can't wrestle for shit and like it or not, workrate is important in Gaytch's WWE
>>19814597And that's why Jey Uso was the champ, that's why Damien Priest was the champ, that's why Jade Cargill is a champYou niggers are so fucking stupid it's amazing
>>19811192Several good points have been made in this thread, the biggest is this >>19811217, Triple H will run the company into the ground and bankrupt it before he let's anyone who reminds him of the guys he's still jealous of decades later, Shawn Michaels was the center of DX, not Triple H. Evolution was designed to get Triple H over but made stars out of Randy Orton & Batista instead (Speaking of Dave, we all know the Mania 35 match only happened so Paul could get his win back)Triple H purposely sabotaged the John Cena retirement tour BECAUSE he hates that John Cena got to be the big megastar that Cunter was hoping for the absence of Rock & Austin was supposed to make himThis dumb faggot Paul Pubecuck has the most fragile ego in professional wrestling HISTORY, Hulk Hogan was more humble than that retardDoes nobody remember the statue of himself he gave himself at Mania last year? L.A. Knight represents what Triple H wishes he could be only now he has the power to do something. You're going to get that eurotrash faggot Gunther pushed as a top dog babyface before you ever see L.A. Knight as world champion You'll only see Triple H's pet projects and ass-kissers on top before anyone the fans want, because that's the kind of spiteful cunt faggot Triple H is
>>19815201>Evolution was designed to get Triple H over but made stars out of Randy Orton & Batista insteadholy retard
>>19815212We share the board with these "people".
>>19815212nta but haitch was just trying to do the four horsemen in his insanely self indulgent NWA mark reign of terror daysI think Vince would have been the one that wanted the young guys to get over
>>19815227I think Triple H wanted to be a star maker even then.
>>19815201I don’t like Triple H’s booking too anon, but a lot of your points here seem very trans coded
>>19815241...2003 hhh?man strangled more pushes in the crib than anyone else that comes to mindexcept maybe Hogan but that guy was an actual star
>>1981520110/10, promo is very good
He's Stephanie's hall pass.
>>19815265Who did more damage - Triple H's reign of terror from 2003-05 or Jeff Jarrett in TNA as NWA Champion?
>>19815201>nobody remember the statue of himself he gave himself at Mania last year?I do, have you noticed that a lot of Triple H match thumbnails from the WWE Vault on YouTube is him being triumphant even in matches he loses Trips is the ultimate egomaniac, so is The Rock, that's why they fell out last year and why Triple H left WWE
>>19815296kek yeah I heard that shit was awful too, but I haven't really seen any early-to-2007ish tna honestly
>>19815291not black enough
>>19815201Not entirely related but I think this is the core difference between Paul & his father-in-law Vinny Mac didn't make himself the star of the show, when he feuded with people it was always with the idea in mind that the other guy was going to triumph over Mr. McMahon, Vince had no issues doing the job to wrestlers or being beaten up, defeated, or getting his comeuppance Triple H makes you know he's in charge, this is his show, and that he's the main character. Even if he can't wrestle anymore. Do you think Triple H would let other people beat him if he could still wrestle or take bumps? The answer is only if you're one of his boys like Seth or Cody. If not then you're doing the job to the boss.
>>19815296I feel like with Triple H he was logically the only person who could be RAW’s top star from 02-05. Jeff Jarrett had way more options on who to drop the belt to
>>19815362>Vinny Mac didn't make himself the star of the showDid you even watch WWE 20 years ago? He took up about 20+ minutes of TV every show from 98 onwards for fucking years. If it wasn't him it was one of his family or HHH. The show was basically a McMahon soap opera for about half a fucking decade.
>>19815362Sad but true.
>>19815403Yeah, and he always ended up getting stunnered and embarrassed, you retarded fucking faggot. God damn, how dumb do you have to be to not be able to follow a wrestling storyline? Shoot jump off a bridge, you waste of renewable resources.
>>19815403he was infinitely more generous than hhh about doing business and making guys look good anon is right about that The Authority is probably my most hated faction (go away heat I mean) of all time
God damn E-drones are fucking dense.
maybe Shaun Ricker should just leave professional wrestling then and go find another career working 9-to-5 day jobs, and find employment over there.
>>19815440Sup Paul?Nobody likes your shitty booking, your wife fucks black men behind your back, and when you die you'll be remembered as being a gigantic diva fag
>>19815403The stars of the show were Steve Austin, The Rock, & Undertaker, Vince just happened to be a supporting character in their stories Even at the height of the McMahon soap opera shit, the focus was always one of those three, or Mankind. Steph & Test was literally considered midcard stuff and presented as such.
>>19811192I still want to know why he went off on that tangent about it being ok for men to cry. wtf was that about?
>>19815528Humiliation Ritual to get over with Paul
>>19815528If it's good enough for Randy Savage it's good enough for LA Knight.
>>19811192The WWE's issue is ego, always has been and always will be. Its ego has been the thing that made it great, but in recent years its now the thing thats hurting them.They rather push jobbers like Gunther, Paul, Sami, etc to prove they can make a star out of anyone as opposed to people who just naturally have the it factor. If you create yourself in wwe, they resent you for it, if they create you, they feel they have more ownership over you as youll show loyal gradititde. It also lets the guys backstage vicariously live through the stars they made.Eventually they'll lose the talent and they'll sign with aew. Many such cases.
>>19811217Triple Nose knows his biggest influence was The Rock and Paul doesn’t like that.
>>19815811Exactly, Triple H is probably gonna be pissed to learn the up and coming generation view Austin, Rock, Taker, & Foley as their wrestling heroes
>>19811192most over guy in the rumble
>>19811232I forgot Dakota Kai was released, surprised she didn't show up in AEW/ROH or TNA yet
>>19811248>CM Punkthe short order cook from the pipebill waffle house?
>>19812784that gimmick was dimesTony is too pussy to run it back
>>19815440>Shaun Rickerkek that's the guy that used to bang Becky Lynch
>>19813621kek i just love seeing trips get dropped in the slop
>>19811192Irish bitch and Seth "Cuckin" Rollins, that's who and Triple Shitter loves them
He shagged the wife of triple bypass self insert and dared to get over on his own.
>>19816675Becky had a time in which she was good, but that's long since past.
>>19811232That's total bullshit if WWE want to thrive they need to do what fans want. I hope LA knight will anger haitch al much that he will be releasing him earlier and go to AEW where he will be finally appreciated
>Time for a new era
