Smackdown Is On 2 Weeks Notice

Batista was...that's what started the ball rolling. Eddie was dead, and will be for quite some time.

Angle didn't have the belt taken off of him...he lost it because of shithouse booking on Long's part. It should have been Angle vs. Orton, but for some reason Rey got shoved back in the mix.

And don't say it's because Rey is so popular. Rey is riding the memory of Eddie Guererro...a real champion. Whose name are the fans chanting when Rey's wrestling?

Long doesn't do the booking. Rey is riding the memory of Guerrero, because that's how the Office chose him to be representing. They pick the story lines, and have shoved it down our throats that 'EDDIE' = 'REY', nobody else. If that's how you see it, you're a victim of their lazy booking & storywriting.

Rey is popular in his own right. Like Eddie before him, they have not allowed him to be his own champion with shitty storyline & booking. Eddie's run was killed off by endless matches with the dead weight that is JBL, before eventually jobbing because the bookers felt he wasn't fitting their view of a champion.

Would anyone say that of him now? Same with Rey. Wrestling is in a strange niche - it asks you to believe the unbelievable, but it is failing that with Rey's booking.
 
I suppose Shawn Michaels should never be competing for a heavyweight title either? He's probably under 200 pounds.
 
That's his quoted weight. WWE purposefully embelishes much of the wrestlers height & weight. Michaels isn't as built as he was in the mid 90's - I reckon he's below 200 too.

We probably agree more than disagree on this. Yes, the front office does all the booking, but Long's the front man, and he's presented as making all the decisions.

So, essentially, we're in agreement that Rey, a good wrestler in his own right, is being booked into shitty storylines and riding Eddie's memory?

Looks like we are, yeah.

CoyoteUgly's seen dumber angles than this one in the history of wrestling....but not by much.

Proof of this?
 
There you go...and they'll give the official weight, which might be right and might not be. But it's the one they go by.

Rey is so far under the minimum for heavyweight competition that the whole thing is a joke.
 
Just look at Shawn. There's no way he's 225.

Do you believe that Big Show is always exactly 500 pounds as he's announced?

Doesn't matter. What matters is the official weight.

What has this to do with anything? There's no way you're bullshitting anyone into thinking Rey Mosquito qualifies for heavyweight competition.

There's your reason how he got in to the division.

Now Keeping him there....
That's another story.

Uh...it doesn't matter how he got written into the angle...what matters is that he has no business there.

Everyone qualifies for it. Even the women.
