Probably a controversial opinion here, but I don't see what all the fuss is about with Dean Ambrose's mic work. He's just been downright monotonous recently. They're just a flat piece of cardboard, and he sounds like someone's got an arm round his neck whilst he's delivering it.

Now for my rant...

I HATE any world title belt strap color except for black and brown. Jack Brisco was the first to hold the Domed Globe, and it had a shitty red strap. Yuck. If the Green Monster had a black strap, it would probably be better liked.

The boxing world belts with their non-black straps, for the most part, look like cheap toys. Especially the WBC belt.

Black makes the gold and silver "pop." A nice dark brown is subdued and doesn't take away from the metal. Dark blue may work okay. Red = no. Green = hell no. Can't wear white after Labor Day, so half the year is gone (sarcasm).

I do like the NWA World belts held by Thesz all the way through the Big Gold Belt. Strangler Lewis' belt and Joe Stecher's belt are from a different time, and just don't look right to me as a modern title. For their time, they were great, tho.

/end rant
I agree, it's black strap or go home. You could ask them to put the Green Monster on a black one. They (along with most other belt makers) also have the Domed Globe.

He's okay, nothing special though.

You would think with Smackdown being taped they would have the time to reshoot and edit. He just kept rambling on about Punk being spoiled and himself being a man. Im surprised Punk didn't interrupt and own him right there.

Big Burly - if you want a Domed Globe, get one from TRB or PCB. They don't have the wait time that Millican and Parks have.

The way Ambrose was being hyped and what not from the indie fans the dude has been a complete dud.

I'm gonna throw a wrench.

The Intercontinental title looks awesome in white.

I think that's it, I think because he's an indie guy that isn't complete garbage on the mic like 99% of indie guys are, he's been exhalted as this new Roddy Piper.

His gimmick does limit him at the moment. It's not totally fair to jump the gun on him yet. Even if he does look like a mongoloid.
