PaperThinWalls Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I think Moss is the biggest shame. The guy has talent. He can talk and wrestle. His match against GUNTHER earlier this year was tremendous. He was criminally underutilized. Dolph Ziggler is solid talent, but he’s been stale for years, so maybe going elsewhere can revitalize his career. Shelton is good too but creative had no interest in him. When he finishes his career, I hope he gets a job at the PC or becomes an agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is Austin Theory doing that Dolph Ziggler can't deliver on? Who would you rather see cut promo and think it was better than the other? Theory is young and has a whole career ahead of him. He’s also top notch talent, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillDriven Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 As a wrestling fan for over 20 years, I always believed that the #1 way to always keep your job in the WWE as a Superstar on the roster is to have a character persona and mic skills that will drive the fans wild. Being great in the ring as a wrestler is definitely a must have but I feel like having the other talents around wrestling ability will keep you alive. When it comes to a fair number of superstars on the main roster now, I feel like the wrestling skills are great but the character persona abilities have been kinda mediocre for the past couple years or more. The reason why I would have fought for Dolph Ziggler is because regardless of how long he has been in WWE already, I still feel like he is one of those guys that can last a long time. Dolph is handsome, good physical shape, good wrestling skills in the ring and etc. When it comes to being the character persona of that arrogant jackass, I feel like Dolph can out perform Miz, Austin Theory and Grayson Wallace, therefore I figured Dolph would have been spared. It would have made more sense if Dolph purposely wanted to go due to the fact that he felt like his ideas were not being considered, but this is just my two cents on the matter.

StillDriven Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Of course I would never want them to release Austin or Grayson, I figured Dolph could be great working well against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A N T I - Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Theory still seems like he’s struggling to find his thing. He’s still very much pre-Thuganomics Cena imo. Imagine Rocky Maivia never evolving into The Rock.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolph did feud with Theory last year. Maybe Dolph’s last important feud? They had a few good matches. 2 minutes ago, A N T I - said: Theory still seems like he’s struggling to find his thing.

Good workhand wrestler. Dolph has better mic skills, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Theory has no reason to evolve into anything...because, he's been the chosen one since the start. It's a trap for sure. I don't blame him for anything...but, that's why he's in the same spot as a Dolph or Miz. He's been chosen as that reliable workhorse guy who never really makes it out of the midcard. He'll have his title reigns here or there...but he's not going to break that mold, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Hell Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I liked Ziggler, he was fun to watch in the ring and was fun to listen to as well, but I'm not surprised for the release since they had no direction for him in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senex Beast Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I liked Moss in the ring and his look but his gimmicks and ring name just blah Same with Rick Booqs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 (edited) All this is even worse knowing that they brought back Nia *censored*ing Jax. Like, yeah...let's bring back someone who is shit on the mic and in the ring...who injures her coworkers and does nothing but belittle people and make them look like garbage. Let's also fire a bunch of people who are reliable workers and never create any problems at all...makes sense.

Generations Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 (edited) Gotta be honest...I agree with most of these. Nowhere near as bad as those releases they did that one time where they were axing really big names.
