Yeah, you read right. John "Bradshaw" Layfield, Raw's best heel and one of its finest workers, is finally getting some love around here.

I see a whole lot of JBL hate. I see a lot of people call him boring, bad in the ring, and all around a bad wrestler. I'm gonna tell you why you're all wrong.

In Ring - JBL exemplifies what a heel should be in the ring. There's no one with better heel psychology than JBL. Slow, methodical, calculated, and all out brutal is his style, and it's exactly how a heel is supposed to perform. He rips his opponents apart, and has some gnarly power moves - I'm a particular fan of the fallaway slam. Frankly, there's no other heel in the WWE who wrestles a better heel game than JBL does. Some can match his game, but none can surpass it.

Mic Work - JBL has a gimmick that everyone hates. He's an arrogant, rich, SOB and it works even better because it's based on his real life character - that of an arrogant, rich, SOB. When he gets on the mic, he draws heat like nobody's business. He can make everyone in the arena hate his guts, just by reminding them of the simple fact he's better than them. Every promo he cuts is strong, entertaining, and serves his purpose as a heel - to draw the heat.

So come on. The man has perfect in ring heel psychology, he draws excellent heat in his promos, and all around he makes an excellent heel.

For all those who understand why exactly JBL is a top heel in the business, and deserves another world championship reign, this is your home. Come here and offer adulation unto Bradshaw, the Wrestling God. Do not be afraid to defend his greatness against the legions of haters. Because remember:

IN JBL WE TRUST

JBL is in much better shape as of late. He's lost quite a few pounds in recent months.

You were partially, but also the mad hate on JBL in the LD was ridiculous and I decided it was time I did something about it.

And yes, I am.

I.e., when JBL finally finds out about us, we all get paid millions of dollars?

Samoa Joe does do decent mic work.

Not nearly as good as JBL's, of course.

Also, the the JBL Fan Club voting membership:

What are our thoughts on combing this into a Maryse fan club as well?

Italian MVP

I'd say no.

Harthan

To the assembled masses:

By executive decision, the JBL fan club will remain independent of the Maryse fan club. Expect your noble and beneficent leader to form the Maryse fan club on Friday, however.

If you're a Great Khali fan, yes sure, Samoa Joe is a wordsworth...

When he's not screaming and spitting like a fat guy that got cut off at the buffet, he does OK mic work...Otherwise, it's all:

Anyway, I'm anticipating JBL vs Cena at the Rumble. Who's with me?

Anyway, I'm anticipating JBL vs Cena at the Rumble. Who's with me?

I was thinking that after reading the RAW results...Maybe JBL loses his next match, and HBK goes to the "finals", and after he beats Jericho, surrenders his title shot to JBL.

This could set HBK up to interfere in JBL's title match, and cost him the title, and finish off the feud at NWO, and then let HBK work on build-up for the 'Taker match at 'Mania...

Italian MVP

12-23-2008, 01:52 AM

Yep, cause I dont think they will go with Jericho again and there defiently not wasting Orton/Cena at the Rumble. That leaves HBK to guide JBL to victory.

Harthan

12-23-2008, 01:56 AM

I rather enjoyed Cena vs JBL's series from Judgment Day on to GAB. I thought the Parking Lot Brawl was very entertaining for what it was worth. Cena and JBL work rather well together.

NightShiftLoser

12-23-2008, 02:00 AM

The match-ups will probably be Jericho v. JBL and Orton v. HBK because Jericho and JBL already feuded, and they like to add those things into little tourney's like this.

It also leaves it open for Batista to cost Orton his shot, and let HBK win...

Then, HBK would either face Y2J again, and have a look back at that feud, or have HBK lay down for JBL...

This sets up JBL v. Cena and Batista v. Orton for the Rumble, which takes Orton and Batista out of the Rumble...

That leaves a SD wrestler to win the Rumble, and Batista and Orton in the EC at NWO.

Who would that SD guy be? HHH! Probably...

You're a bit behind, NSL. They're doing a fatal four way with everybody, winner gets the shot.

It also leaves it open for Batista to cost Orton his shot, and let HBK win...

Didn't you hear? Batista tore something. Out till next summer, June-August sometime.

Then, HBK would either face Y2J again, and have a look back at that feud, or have HBK lay down for JBL...

Again, the four way.

This sets up JBL v. Cena and Batista v. Orton for the Rumble, which takes Orton and Batista out of the Rumble...

Like I said, Batista is out and Orton is probably in the Rumble now.

That leaves a SD wrestler to win the Rumble, and Batista and Orton in the EC at NWO.

Who would that SD guy be? HHH! Probably...

Well, I think Edge personally.

I'm kind of hoping we don't get JBL/Cena, though, and instead we see JBL win the Rumble as he deserves.

I haven't been able to watch WWE TV...So, I didn't know that, and that's retarded. A tourney works so much better, but I guess they don't want to use that, after just using it for the IC Belt.

I knew they used the "punt" to say he was out this week, but I didn't know he was seriously hurt. That sucks for him. Or, it may not. It'll keep him out, and he'll come back and get a title shot like everyone else has when returning from injury.

That's the newest way to earn your shot, isn't it? Get hurt, miss a few months, and ride your white pony in to save the day?

Ummm...I was under the impression that Batista was the "Permanent" Number One Contender...

Khali's another one who gets no love. I don't know exactly what people are expecting out of a 7 foot 2 giant in terms of technical ability. He's a big man, he does his job, and he does it well.

Perfect mic skills?

Bit old, sorry I missed this KB. Anyway, yes - JBL cuts excellent promos week in and week out, drawing tons of heat and furthering the storyline he's involved in very well.

I'm fuzzy on the details, but I think he was banned from Germany, though that seems harsh.

Oh, that. I get you.

He wasn't banned, I believe, but there was controversy about it. Nazi demonstrations for political purposes are banned, but what he did was legal because it was in character, even though it was controversial. He cleared it up in comments that he was just drawing heat, and it worked.

JBL was once broke. He desired to become rich one day and knew that he had the knowledge to make the investments he needed to make. Having no money, he used his balls as collateral. Based on an assessment of value, the bank lent him five hundred thousand dollars and the rest was history.

Some JBL facts:

If you have five dollars and JBL has five dollars, JBL has more money than you.

There is no 'ctrl' button on JBL's computer. JBL is always in control.

Apple pays JBL 99 cents every time he listens to a song.

JBL can sneeze with his eyes open.

JBL can eat just one Lay's potato chip.

Completely not Chuck Norris facts with Chuck Norris replaced with JBL.
