P sure if they cared at all about what people want they'd have put it on Ambrose. Or at least let Reigns hold it until Raw.
 
while Roman has shitty mic skills, he is really good in the ring and can go without being carried.
I don't know if I'd say he's "really good in the ring" but he is decent. I agree with the rest of your post, especially that his push has been botched to hell.
 
Regins is the unluckiest wrestler to ever be pushed to top guy status. Alot of this is hold over from the rumble eariler this year. They made a terrible mistake by putting Daniel Bryan in and having him eliminated in such a shitty way. Roman is getting the heat for simply not being DB. And thats a shame because while Roman has shitty mic skills, he is really good in the ring and can go without being carried.

It's like I said before, barring a miraculous make-over in his character like The Rock, Reigns will probably *never* have the fan support he or Vince wants him to him.
 
Reigns isn't a bad worker. He could sell better, but then he's probably been told to LOOK STRONG at all times.

The main problem with him is that he lacks intangibles. He's the Tim Tebow of sports entertainment.

Charisma, stage presence, poise - Reigns doesn't have it. He's not comfortable in front of an audience with a mic in his hand - and for potentially the top star on "the longest-running live episodic weekly TV show in history", that's a fatal flaw.

Not everyone can have the presence of the Rock or the talking skills of Paul Heyman, but you have to be at least good enough that you're not noticeably detracting from the show. Reigns isn't there, and if he isn't there by now it's doubtful he ever will be.

The Raws before yesterdays both had hour ones ranging in the 3.4/3.5 area and then dropping. They had more people watching the build up to the PPV then they had tuning in after it. Thats fucking amazing. I think thats their lowest rating since going to 3 hours, even including the christmas eve episode

Road Dogg did tell the fans not to watch... These keep on this trend and they will be doing TNA numbers by 2020.
 
Who has/had the smarkiest crowds of the three? ECW, ROH, or NXT?
 
I guess it depends on your definition of smark. It seems like the NXT crowd is so smarky they've looped all the way around back to cheering the good guys and booing the heels (though there are exceptions, especially lately).

At the backwoods indy shows I go to, the few and rare "smarks" stick out because they'll enthusiastically cheer the heels (which no-one else does) and call the babyfaces fat or whatever. Sometimes they insult the heels too.
 
Teddy Long did an interview about being Teddy Long, tag team matches, and everything.
Holla holla playa Teddy Long said:
A lot of people think that is something big, well it's big to me because of my Grandson. We bought him this little walker and every time he would get in that he would just bounce up and down kind of like the dance so I started doing the dance on TV because I wanted my Grandson to watch it and let him know I was doing his dance. So that's the inside secret about how the dance came about.
