To be honest, I like the idea of Kofi going heel.

You could have him as the guy who was there for 10 years, and his entire career before the New Day was eradicated, because he was talked into stupid shit with unicorns, shitty $13 cereal making kids pester their parents to buy it, that everyone mocked him and his career until they started cheering for him not because he was the guy who put Randy Orton through a table at MSG, not as the guy who has been the highlight of countless Royal Rumbles, Battle Royals, Ladder Matches, TLC matchs, multiple time Tag Team, United States and Intercontinental Champion, no... it's because Kofi Kingston, an elite athlete was now relatable to fat, neckbeard, basement dwelling perma-virgins who cheer for shit ironically, instead of giving him the proper respect as a veteran for being a fucking bad ass for 10 years!

Kofi Kingston is not relatable to "those people", because being "relatable" means that you're an equal to them, and Kofi Kingston has no equals!

I've talked about it a few times here, I'm all for Kofi getting a big singles push. He's been a company man for a long time and, as you point out, has one of the most spectacular highlight reels in the company

Yeah I think Big E is too damn fun to be an effective heel

What are your thoughts on all of this?

I agree on a few points but not with the same zeal.

I'm going to preface this by saying that I have always liked KO and Sami Zayn. Kevin is one unalterable factor away from being an all-time great. But he's both small/average and fat. It is what it is. He has a great motor and moves set for his build. Connects with fans and great heel mic work. But its hard to suspend disbelief as he's slapping the Samoan Thor in the head and taunting him about being "The Guy" as he lays on the ground for a minute selling a simple clothesline. Nobody looks strong. Reminds me of Al Snow's story about Tony Atlas being kicked out of a territory for putting on a 20min 4-star match with a manlet.

Sami especially impresses me with his talk considering he spent a decade with a one-word vocabulary. He's also found the gym that Kevin forgot how to get to. He looks like an athlete/fighter instead of an acne-back string bean that he used to.

AJ is believable because he's spectacularly athletic and they let him be. He's small but vicious... but he really should have big nasty backup to protect him. He also MUST stay on Smackdown if they're going to keep up the cruiserweights. Why would we care about the CW title if the real champ is the same size?

I really do like that Luke Harper is getting noticed. I don't know what they might have for him as the best progression is to rebel against Bray/Randy but don't know where to go from there. Hired gun, maybe but I think that might be better for Baron Corbin for a while.

Rusev should be Raw's version of Attitude Era Kane: A brutal consequence for those who defy the Authority and loyal to them in exchange for promoting Lana's interests.

I think they should get Jimmy Jacobs working with/on future Owens stuff, get some of the old Steen character into it.

This may be the issue. Just found out he was a writer there now and I think he might be in a nostalgia trap. Kevin Owens would be a great IC/US/Tag heel but he wasn't even "The Guy" in RoH.

Summer/Fall 2014 Stone Cold Dean Ambrose is best for business.

I think you're right but he needs an unpopular authority/control to rage against. And, if he's going to be "the lunatic fringe," he's going to have to high spot bigger and more often. Not Jeff Hardy shit. But some stuff that let's the crowd know he's got a "I'll hurt me to hurt you" streak would be best.

LGBT community is whining because Ip Man and the other guy "should have" been portrayed as a gay couple in rogue one.

Shut the fuck up.

Be gay all you want (NTTAWWT) but not every movie has to include this PC bullshit and tolerate everyone's needy demands and agendas. Star Wars doesn't need characters that HAVE to be gay. It's fucking Star Wars.

Now that Disney is running the Star Wars/Marvel ship and politically the company leans to the far left, the assumption is there will be alot of pandering to far left lunatics who want non white characters and buttfucking.

I'm sure this has been talked about but is Mojo Rawley supposed to be a Kevin Greene WCW ripoff?

Heel AJ with a heel Big Cass as his body guard?

Best for business {<hhh]
 
I never thought I'd see the day where Steve Austin has 40lbs on Mick Foley.

Maybe. I figured that, if he was a good company man, they'd eventually turn Cass heel and bring Carmella over for heat if he had to turn on Enzo for it.

AJ + The Club = b4b Smackdown?
Balor Club = b4b Raw?

06 had the worst class of up and comers and only TWO guys got over to a mainstream level.

Fuck this guy, he should go obsess over Bret Hart some more.
