Brie VS Lana: WWE's Next Biggest Waste Of Time?

Jack-Hammer

YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH!!!!
Following Brie Bella's loss to Naomi last night on Raw, Lana came out on stage and laughed at the fallen Brie. We've seen him do that for some promising storylines in the past and we've also seen him do that concerning storylines that look to be huge wastes of time. Now, I'm hoping that it turnes out to be the latter as one of those things that Vince likes an idea for a brief period of time but then loses interest almost immediately afterward.

The Bella Twins get a great deal of heat altogether, some of it undeserved in my opinion, but, nonetheless, I imagine that interest in this little Divas feud is practically nil as a lot of people just aren't interested in Brie and Lana can't wrestle. Sure, she's great for giving us a bit of a thrill by occasionally getting into some sort of scrape in the ring that causes her micro mini to ride up and give us some panty time but that's certainly not enough to make me want to see this; there's too much filler going on in WWE as it is so this is the last thing we need during WrestleMania season.
 
Little random feuds to give Brie Air time until she gets pregnant and retires.

Trying to milk a little more of the YES YES YES! and Nikki's hurt sympathy.

If this actually makes it to the Wrestlemania Card... Omg.
 
The WWE today is starting to look like WCW back in (I think) 2000 when they changed their logo and went through a creative overhaul. Angles are being pitched left and right with no sense of purpose, and performers are acting out in ways that betray any sense of reason.

The WWE up and decided to use air time to hit us with a Lana vs Brie Bella feud. Why? Well, Lana made some unkind comments about Brie Bella and Daniel Bryan in a backstage interview that had no purpose otherwise. It's like "Oh look! It's Lana! Let's interview her, she's had such an exciting series of events up until now."

Lana probably shouldn't have been used as anything except Rusev's valet. Everyone has doubts in regard to her ability to hang in the ring, and Brie Bella has practically cast away any possible faith we might have in her ability to carry a feud with someone who's a newcomer.

Even if they hit us with an amazing match, it'll be predicated on how annoyed Brie Bella was when she wandered into a Lana interview. Plus; Lana came out and clapped to celebrate a Brie Bella loss that Lana had nothing to do with. It's WCW 2000 all over again.
 
But we better split the brands so that creative can get more of these amazing stories out to the public.

I'm actually one of the Brie apologists. She's not nearly the train wreck in the ring she was. My problem is that she's not good enough to carry Lana. My mother problem is that Paige is nowhere to be found, and she's over.

Also, am I thei only one that thinks Summer Rae deserves something to do. She works stiff and inline watching her in the ring. I think she makes a great heel.
 
I really want to vomit every time people do the "YES" chant during Brie's matches. She is a bad wrestler. She is taking time away from more qualified people.

I don't doubt Lana's ring skills. She has none. I'm 99% sure she isn't allowed to take a bump.

Hopefully they just use this to advertise Total Divas.
 
Yea I really have no idea where this is going either. Brie Bella has stated that she will not be resigning and for all intents and purposes will be leaving shortly after Wrestlemania. So I guess throwing her into a short term feud even if no actual wrestling happens is a way to give her something to do.

Lana on the other hand, well, what the hell has happened to her? She was going great as the valet to Rusev, then when news of their engagement broke, they were both put into what I term "As the Stomach Turns" with Ziggler and Rae. Thankfully that was over and done with quickly, and with Rusev going out with an injury and then Lana, seemed she all but disappeared.

We only see her now and again as she comes out with Rusev. As he is with the LON, she doesn't accompany him to the ring anymore, so what exactly does she do? Can't see this thing with Brie Bella going far, so Lana is back to doing nothing.
 
Due to a combination of the flu and apathy I completely missed Raw last night. That all being said I am interested to see if Lana can grow as a performer. Brie is probably her best opponent. There is no reason to sacrifice anyone else to someone who is somewhere between on her last leg and getting a decent push. This feud is likely going to either be a train wreck or a real eye opener. Either way it is going to be interesting to see where they take it and it could actually be surprisingly entertaining.
 
My mother problem is that Paige is nowhere to be found, and she's over.
Exactly. She isn't relevant enough after her losses to Charlotte. Nowadays, she has been losing to jobbers like Sunmer Rae. And she is turning heel/face even more often than Big Show. I would still hope that she is in the title picture along with Becky, Sasha and Charlotte.
Also, am I thei only one that thinks Summer Rae deserves something to do. She works stiff and inline watching her in the ring. I think she makes a great heel.
She is certainly an underutilized diva. She is surely above the likes of Naomi, Tamina and Brie but who cares?

As for the OP, I am least interested in this feud if it ever happens. I liked Lana in her initial run with Rusev but now she is just a filler. As much I like Bryan, I still amn't able to like Brie. I can survive Nikki but no Brie.

:devil:
 
The only way this isn't a waste of time is if it is the first step in restoring Lana's credibility after the dumpster fire of the last few months. Let's not forget she was one of the most over workers, let alone women, in the entire company last summer. Maybe this is her gateway to more screen time and promos, which she is clearly great at. So if this helps her get re-established as a credible member of the roster, I'll be fine with it. But I'd rather her stay on the mic than wrestle any matches.

But like others have said, this does leave kind of a sour taste in my mouth because there are other women who are extremely talented but haven't been featured for whatever reason. Paige should never be the afterthought she is now, and Summer Rae excels in whatever role she's asked to perform.

So while this Lana and Brie thing could help reset Lana's character, I just wish other talented women weren't being pushed aside.
 
Yeah, I don't know what they're going for here...If they have a match, it will likely suck, but then again...Brie's match with Stephanie was surprisingly watchable. But even then, at least that had a strong build up and a strong pay-off. This just seems to be there for filler purposes.
 
It's just a vehicle for Brie to go out on a high. I think that's pretty obvious. Lana, not being an actual wrestler, is a good choice for the opponent, because Brie can basically win a squash and people can chant yes at her or whatever.

And after, even though she lost, Lana can claim she sent Brie packing to gain that heat.
 
You get it absolutely right mate, this is going to be next biggest waste of time. Lana was a great manager, she should've continued in that role and pushed Rusev even more. But instead are we going to see her feud with Brie Bella. I should rephrase what AJ Lee said on the ring once before, "Talent is not sexually transmitted" Savvy?

I wouldn't be surprised. Something for Total Divas next season.
