they ? up w all that weird partnering they gave him w Coulter, ? was wack
? . That ? was great. He ruined it by failing a drug test. The bad pr around it cut the legs from it too but that was a hot angle.
It was cool w Cesaro but it wasn't necessary
Putting him w Del Rio was stupid -
Zyan needs a catchphrase, without one, he's done.

Yea, he's boring as hell. I don't know why these dudes like him like they do. I feel the same way about Cesaro -
Jack Swagger had no charisma or personality, that we the people thing could only last so long

I get what he is saying, he definitely had a higher chance of coming to the higher card again with the brandsplit. -
Thing with Cesaro n Zayn is they can pull a match of the year candidate with anyone with no stories/build up, would more character help? Of course, but in ring it's all there
Swagger, not so much -
Zayn doesn't need a phrase either he just always needs to stay in a decent story, as we seen with him n ko or even stroman, he'll take care of the rest
-
Zayn isn't boring per se, the problem is he doesn't have a personality.
Like who is Sami Zayn? What are his motivations? Likes and dislikes? What's his character about?
There's like half of each roster that has that same problem. Apollo Crews, Dolph Ziggler, Cesaro etc.
Neville was the same way until he turned heel. Now he has character, motivation, and personality. It's working. -
i know we don't care about TNA much here, but got some interesting news and notes about the upcoming tapings:
Alberto Del Rio and Paige are backstage, so is Jim Ross
-
Paige at a TNA event? isnt she still under contract

Yea she is.. -
And I don't think Sami needs a heel turn to show that kind of character either. We know who Sami is wrestling-wise. He puts on great matches. But we barely know who he is character-wise. And its easy to blame creative, but I don't think he really knows who he is either. This may be a situation where the wrestler needs to create the path for himself.Zayn isn't boring per se, the problem is he doesn't have a personality.

She can be backstage but can't appear on the show. -
TNA being TNAAs noted earlier, Alberto El Patron (Alberto Del Rio) made his TNA debut at tonight's Impact Wrestling tapings in Orlando.
Patron faced World Heavyweight Champion Bobby Lashley in a match that should air next Thursday night. After controversy in the finish of the match, Alberto was announced as the new World Heavyweight Champion. -
Apparently the name TNA is officially dead. They're just Impact Wrestling going forward however long it lasts

As noted, Jack Swagger announced on Chael Sonnen’s podcast earlier this week that he has requested his release from WWE. Swagger did note the release is an “ongoing process” and as of this writing WWE has yet to make an official release announcement.
Swagger has been booked for the March 10th WAW event in Norwich, UK, and as we noted will be facing new TNA star Alberto Del Rio.
WWE has issued the following statement to WrestleZone, clarifying Jack Swagger remains contracted to WWE and has yet to be granted his official release:
Jack Swagger has not been granted a release from his WWE contract. When he is granted his release, Jack Swagger will remain under exclusive contract to WWE for 90 days and will be compensated accordingly during that period.

Regarding Luke Harper, there is a rumor going around about having Harper be realigned with Bray Wyatt leading up to WrestleMania. Apparently there was a push to have Harper added to the WrestleMania match with Wyatt and Randy Orton but Vince McMahon decided against it.
Vince ruins everything -
Luke is a victim of bad timing
if this was a smackdown PPV, then maybe
but him in a world title match at mania? it sounds cool but maybe we're fooling ourselves
he hasn't even been booked that strongly
