    It's why Jake Roberts is the best promo man ever. He had it all.

    Tbf, Brock has never been a long promo guy. He's very good in short promos and promos that are to the point. Or taped promos.

    They shouldn't of sent him out there to do a 15 minute promo. They should be protecting his weakness and showing his stengths.

    But I thought the content was good, but he did seem nervous.

    And yes Danny, I did.

    I think you are being over critical of Lesnars mic skills. He's a lot better now than he was when he first started.

    I think you need to accept that not every superstar is or has to be gold on the mic. Taker is not good on the mic, Goldberg, Nash, Hogan, Angle, Hardy (Jeffy) are not and never have been great on the mic but that doesnt make them less of a draw or less of a star.

    You don't think they'd be stupid enough to have Cena beat Lesnar this Sunday?

    I was with you up until Angle. He was amazing at everything.

    Yes, I'm a Kurt fanboy.

    I was thinking about this actually last night.

    What if Cena's contract is up soon and he wants some time off. He's been on the road constantly for 8 years (apart from an injury).

    And generally when someone is coming to the end of their contract the job to others, which Cena has done recently.

    So lets say Lensar Beats Cena on Sunday, next Monday Cena comes out on Raw and has, in the words of HBK "lost his smile", he takes some time off only to return at the Rumble and win it and go on to face Rock and Lesnar at Mania in a triple threat match with Cena taking the title?

    Or alternatively have Cena return at Survivor Series as the last member of a team vs Team Brock?

    "That" promo he did last June was about 6 minutes long. In that time he managed to put himself over, Cena over, Johnny Ace over, turned face, put his match with Cena over and started a storyline of him vs the company. Virtually every other guy could talk for 20 minutes and do literally none of that.

    I'd love to see Lesnar completely cripple Cena. "Injure" him, let him take time off to "recover" then come back in five/six months looking for revenge.

    His TNA stuff means nothing to me. I'm not tarring his legacy with that.

    He should win in under 10 minutes. Just destroy Cena.

    I was thinking they could do the injury angle, so that allows Cena some time off and to refresh his character.

    But it all points to Cena winning. Everything is against him, his confidence is gone and he is scared of Brock. It would be the biggest fail ever if he beat Brock because your basically flushing your biggest draw down the toliet.

    Could happen. Cena hasn't looked up for this at all, really.

    His main event mafia stuff was good but everything else has been terrible.

    I like this idea. I think it would play up the scared angle, but it would also kind of lead to the "Rocky" mentality that he gets beat down but in the end comes back and wins. SuperCena style!!

    You consider this extreme rules card to be their "biggest drawing"?

    I didn't say every superstar has to be. Lesnar isn't that good on long promos so they should limit him to short ones or taped ones like in that video package.

    I really liked Angle's mic work, he was great.

    Bring back King Kurt so he can continue his quasi-homo relationship with Lesnar.

    Good times. Loved how Lesnar pushed Kurt and he went off-screen for about 3 seconds.

    Dorky Kurt was absolutely amazing. His series of backstage skits with Austin in mid-2001 was unbelievably brilliant; they and Vince played off each other so well.

    A playlist of all the Austin/Kurt skits in order.

    That and Team ECK were Kurt Angle at his best.

    Brock is also getting great heat. He's playing the beastly ******* heel to perfection.

    Its the pipe dream to work in a creative capacity in a wrestling promotion, but that'll never happen, I'll stick to my Financial Services job for now.

    Plus I'd choose TNA over WWE to work for. More of a challenge and a better set or young workers to grow and establish.

    I'd love to work for TNA. There is far more potential there than a lot of people realise.
