WWE And TNA: 7 Worst Moments Of The Week (July 27)
3. False Advertising
This week WWE promoted two matches that never came to fruition. For Battleground, Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins was hyped for a few weeks. Creative decided not to go through with that match right now, and holding off actually probably was the right call. However, not booking the match in the first place would have been the better idea. Is WWE forgetting that there are still fans out there paying over $50 to watch a single three hour show? There had to have been people who were looking forward to Rollins vs. Ambrose more so than any other match. WWE failed to deliver that, and instead gave us a bad horror film skit with Ambrose popping out of the trunk. Good thing a camera was there! On a lesser note, Rusev vs. Sheamus was promoted for Main Event. Lets just speculate for a moment that maybe there were some people out there who felt they were missing out on matches like that and decided to try the WWE Network. Well, with no explanation, the match was pulled, and Swagger was substituted instead. For such a notoriously hard worker, why is Vince McMahon so lazy to not think up a single reason for why that match didnt take place? I can only assume that Sheamus is a big baby who wears diapers and had diaper rash that day and decided to stay home. If WWE wont give us a reason then Ill just create my own!
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.
