Rock 'n' Rave arent supposed to be funny, they are supposed to be annoying. Which going by what you said, seems to be working also.
You mean by having a jobber shave his head then he's a monster?
I would have rathered Joe got the title sooner but if you think about it, giving him the title when he was unbeaten would have killed him when he lost it. Now when it comes to him losing the title (Assuming he wins it) he wont lose any momentium unless he is crushed.
You commented on his gimmick, do you expect people to have the same gimmick for their entire career? Very few people can get by with only one gimmick. Even the most well know wrestler of all time got a gimmick change (Hogan).
Commenting on something that you read but havent seen is very low of you. Your basically saying, i dont know how it went down but im still going to say its stupid because i cant think of anything else wrong. |

Did I mention anything about giving him a new gimmick? I did not, sir.

Obviously, People know who Stone Cold are. Even without the gimmick, he was fine despite the lack of push.

TNA surely tries to make them humorous while being annoying at the same time.

This as an example isn't surprising. Obviously, the booking has flaws but using Snitsky as an example to somehow devalue what I said is just poor.

Did I mention anywhere of Joe winning the title during the 2004 Period? Once again, I did not. The X Division is where he should have stayed during that time. He had credibility, but wasn't at the level to win the world title. If he were to win it now, sure it might be a good thing to some, but he had to basically whine and bitch about getting one? APPROVED!

I do not. But, to transition from Bad ass to complete whiner is a terrible transition. They shoulda just kept him as a bad ass, and tweak him a tad but not to this point.

I can't be disappointed in the booking? I have to enjoy it even though I haven't seen it? I don't care how it went down. Demasking Abyss just kills him then and there.
