Book This! - General Discussion

Your computer must have bad sound. Now Peep I don't want to seem like a prick and hopefully you will use this to help. I'm was going to put this in the review for Smackdown but I'll do it while we are talking.

Extreme Rules is stacked and looks to be a great event. One thing I don't want to see is Rey Mysterio going over during the World Title match. I feel the drama is lacking from the match and the build for it hasn't been outstanding. With Smackdown being focused on E vs C a little to much. That match has been overshadowing the World Title clash to a degree. A title change makes Del Rio look terrible. While it is fine to lose to Rey normally, this isn't one of those chances. The feel to the match for me isn't there. Probably because I don't see Rey having a chance to win. He isn't finished with Rhodes so I expect some tricks or something. And don't make this the last match, Miz vs Cena is your main event. I'm looking forward to the PPV, however this title defense seems like a filler rather then a big match.
 
Prick!

Eh I know what you mean, I have noticed that I am putting more emphasis on E and C, but anything could happen. No-one is expecting Rey to win...

I will post an explanation for my booking after the PPV, plus I can't wait for the draft as Smackdown needs a boost.
 
I think you understand what I'm saying about the lack of drama. Let me put it this way if Rey Mysterio wins then Alberto Del Rio goes to the same level as Santino.
 
I don't see that?

Rey is a former World Heavyweight Champion, he has pinned Del Rio before, and in the BT, and he has the edge picking the stip. Anyway, lets move on.

Anything you want to discuss?
 
While Rey is a former World Champion Rio has just won the title. He looks weak if he loses to Rey just a month after winning the title. And I'll say it again, Rey hasn't been built as a believable challenger as the most likely point of travel for Rey is to face Rhodes. The match was kind of thrown at as instead of there being drama. That is the difference between the two World Title matches. Cena could win and it would make sense as he could face Punk or something. While on Smackdown you have a young guy who is just starting out in his first title run. It hurt Orton when he lost the title in 2004 in the first month after he won it. It'll do the same to Del Rio. What does he have to say if he loses? What happens next? He can't lose.
 
I am excited to get the ball rolling on my Book This. I'll be releasing the roster over the coming few weeks and then announce some matches. I hope to have the first show up in August. Please be easy on me, this is my first time trying this.
 
Peepy, when do I get my review? Soon? Pretty please. :blush:

Me too Proph! ;D

And Peep, I think you're down just fine with the Del Rio/Mysterio angle. I'm interested to see what happens there. But yeah, E&C are getting the spotlight, but that ain't a bad thing either.

I want to make this clear, while the angle for Peep has been "just fine", you don't want "just fine" for the main angle for your brand. When the World Championship match build has been "just fine" it needs something more. Last time I'm writing on the subject. When the WWE did Nexus, I don't think they wanted just fine. When ROH did Punk winning the World Championship on the way out, they didn't want just fine. So yeah, Alberto vs Mysterio has been just fine. I hope Peep can crack it up with the last show.

Point taken Proph.
 
Should I take one of the new avis? I love my Jim Morrison one, it's my identity. But there are some sick new ones. Especially the Ryder and Rhodes ones.
 
Show is up, Proph will address comments after the PPV. Don't review until I have posted the prediction thing!
 
Reviewed. It's short but I couldn't see much to say. Run-of-the mill show, but since your shows are always great that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Was hoping for a little bit more, but the PPV will be great either way.
