WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (May 8)

5. The Butter Knife Club

Does WWE remember how The Shield got over? It wasn€™t all flak jackets, and wet hair, and helicopters. It was because they weren€™t booked to consistently fail at their jobs, which consisted of kicking serious ass every time out. So far, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson look like stars from an appearance standpoint, but not from a booking one.

Last week on Raw, Roman Reigns effectively chased the two supposed badasses off by himself, because maybe that will finally make fans like him! This week at Payback they failed to help A.J. Styles win the world title, and on SmackDown it was all topped off when they did the job to the least popular trio since The Three Man Band: Roman and The Usos. Oh come on!

It€™s hard to fully appreciate how badly WWE has mishandled €œThe Bullet Club€ in such a short amount of time. It€™s pretty impressive. Perhaps in no time at all they€™ll take over for The Wyatt Family€™s current gimmick: Big scary dudes that always lose.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
