Nothing for Bray but Luke Harper & Rowan are getting a push? Bray getting huge pops in dark matches after Raw but nothing on tv?
If he isn't added to the MitB on PPV night or is involved (Randy feud) then Idk anymore. Fck WWE creative. So corny and out of touch.

They don't know what to do with Bray. They had the opportunity to make him a major player in his feuds against cena and the undertaker but he was used as filler instead
WTF Post of 2017:

If Phil pulled that off, I would put a put a paper bag over my head, paste a picture of Jeannie on it, poke a hole through the mouth, and give Phil the best BJ he's ever had in his entire life.[/quote]

I was a big fan of Bray but I don't know anymore tbh. I think creative should take some blame, but he should as well. A lot of his promos make less sense and his videos just make the viewers say "wat".

I think breaking up the wyatt family was a clear mistake. reunite them, have them attacking people again.

Completely agree. I've cooled on his promos as well even though I initially thought they were amazing. They are coming off repetitive but I think a lot of that blame is due to the fact that he's directionless at the moment. He would probably have more to say, if he was talking about a specific person.

But it goes back to how vince doesn't want to have more than 2 or 3 feuds at a time :noway:

I thought he was gonna feud with Ryback. I'm very surprised Bray misses PPVs and R-Truth gets spots. Don't get me wrong, I love R-Truth, dude is a vet, fan favorite, but his spot should go to Bray.

I'm a fan of Truth too. I thought I was the only one :lol:

But I can see the point of keeping Bray off if they don't have anything for him and he'll just be losing. It was odd how they had a program with Ryback set up and then dropped it after one match. Then again, wwe always starts shyt and doesn't finish it, or finish it well, at least

Within WWE, this is a huge loss...Guy was instrumental in making stars, Big presence in NXT, his sons are there, has been with WWE since Vince's dad was in charge.

I am sure tears are flowing...

Sad day in the WWE, he was great in helping new comers and he helped so much. The stories everyone told of him were always funny. RIP Dusty Rhodes.

didn't watch MITB but heard bad reviews. heard cena and owens was great but it's tiring to see Cena always win after giving up the first match in any feud. He never really puts over a guy, he always has the last laugh. Like his feud with Bray or Rusev or anyone before them.

Relax. Cena let KO beat him clean the 1st time.
This time around it had to be Cena with the win to extend the feud & make it 1-1. It was a given. KO still looked strong & kick out of 2 AAs. Left Cena injured too (storyline wise). I can see Cena being out till Summerslam to fight KO in the 3rd match.

Lets see if WWE finally shows Bray respect in this feud with Roman. Hell, Dusty himself was pivotal in creating the Bray gimmick. Do it for him if anything.

I'm so mad that I missed Owens power bombing MGK off the stage hahahaha

I caught the end of raw and finally Brock is back!! I think he's going to win and they'll set up Rollins Vs. Triple H at SummerSlam.

I really hope that the Bray and Roman feud is worth it, I need them to make Bray relevant again.

Too bad the camera caught that it was a pillowy mattress, lol

When's the next PPV? I hope it's not 2 weeks...
