Dear all,
I first of all want to thank you for venturing into my sphere of what I have noticed in wrestling as of late. I have found myself disheartened by those who have left and the situations to which we have all been forced to listen or read or watch unfold before our very eyes. With all these Podcasts around its hard to not get sucked into the loop.
For me recently something hit me like an apple falling from a tree and hitting me square in the head. Properly better than a lot of the kicks I have seen pulled off as of late. (Yes sad and seriously over used) Anywho, back to my thoughts in question. The thought was rather simple that I wondered why I hadn't seen one of the million of reporters to do with wrestling out there talk about it. Even mention it.
Is it just me or is Dolph Ziggler is the go to guy for romance screw up storylines.
I have started to dread seeing females out there managing the male wrestlers because I know that at some point in the near future they are going to end up being listed on Dolph Zigglers *character* bed post. I'm sure that is more than exciting for him, but not for me.
Here is a wrestler I actually remember getting his start in WWE. It was about the time that I was starting to see a desperate struggle for them to keep the success rolling that they had. Over the twenty years of watching it. Well since I was 5 years old, I noticed something. There is always a romance guy. Horrible romance storylines but a romance guy all the same.
Matt Hardy was the face for that particular role for a really long time and I have to say the best one to pull it off. Maybe because it was more real than fake who knows. Edge played that part and he was really good at it also. I'm sure that he got some tips for Joe E Legend along the way. Chris Jericho did it really well and I think still to this day has women falling over guard rails for him.
Triple H was the romance guy and there was so many others that I don't want to bore you. I will say that several wrestlers have tried to do what Dolph does so well and fails. Fantango, John Cena are just two that I will name.
Daniel Bryan pulled it off very well with CM Punk while they were going through a flux on storylines. I guess that this comes to me feeling sorry for Dolph, mainly because he is the man to whom has to make these females look good enough to go off on their own. Not all of them do so well without him. Its not that Dolph needs some nice woman hanging off his arm and sometimes over acting, but he does it to help them.
Whether he means to or not.
I started to wonder if Dolph ever left WWE who the next romance guy would be. There is no one on the current roster that I could put my finger on and say he is the next one. I'm not a hundred percent sure if I will ever like the idea of him being used in this way.
I think there could be more to Dolph and I have to say that the only man to whom could have out done him in this role yet never got used in that way. I would have to say was "Sugar Shane Helms".
So after that bombshell of a thought, I will leave you to get back to your every day lives. Until I know when or if I will be posting for Vince Russo again, please feel free to subscribe and you will get all the latest here.
