It's rare to see a similar consensus between critics and the average viewer. It takes some talent to make something THAT bad.

Feels like one of those people that blames a character like Shinji for reacting like a 14 year old would in Evangelion while also failing to acknowledge they’d be doing exponentially worse facing the trauma appearing on screen

Mark’s life sucks, his willpower to keep going forward is what his name is ultimately calling “Invincible” by proxy. He’s also got the moral rigidity expected of someone his age. He’s still working on discovering what grey looks like on a barometer that used to be solely black and white.

True, but using people in real life as the benchmark for fictional characters only really makes sense for fiction that tries to be as realistic as possible. Neither franchise really falls under hard science-fiction or anything like that, and by that metric it is not us we should be comparing them to but their contemporaries in the same genres.

Mark Grayson versus say for example Superboy.

Shinji Ikari versus say any iteration of Raven in Armored Core. Not 621, though. Cause the guy is built different and makes the trauma Shinji went through look like a joke, and he only became a complete ace on the battlefield as a result, despite being a brain in a jar for all intents and purposes.

You canceled your card now right?

Well sadly no. Not the debit card that was applied against our will.

Even though me and my dad called PayPal's Customer Service and they hooked me up and directed me to the Crypto Department and we set off an investigation going but our call with Apple yielded no results except for checking whatever bank that so-called card used.
 
Really good way to raise the stakes between Cena and Cody with Cena talking about the title as his vanity project and erasing Flair's name. Part of me thinks that leads to him losing at WrestleMania but the only way that would be good right now is if it was because of Stone Cold.

Fucking incompetent jackasses, the very least any bank or car service should give you is a way to shut off your card's functions in the case of theft. I am sorry you have to deal with this dude, hopefully you don't lose any money used without your consent or get it back and the scum who stole it gets found.
 


Okay Triple H, this is a start to something better here. Rather than ignore how bad the botch made him look last week, lets tie it into the story as Gunther being in Jey's head as he should be at this point. I like it.

Now next week we add the spice, Gunther needs to absolutely DESTROY Jimmy while Jey is forced to watch. Then until after the match at Mania (which we could then justify making it some sort of stipulation match), NO MORE YEETING. Have Jey take it completely seriously to emphasize how personal the feud has gotten.

We can salvage this yet.
 




Hold up now, I definitely think I spotted some "heel energy" out of Bianca this week. We also got the return of the "rematch clause" and Rhea not necessarily caring about the Wrestlemania match, just wanting her rematch in general to put her firmly back in Babyface territory.

I think Triple H might have listened to the crowds here as they keep cheering Rhea and booing Bianca.

Next week will be the litmus test, we need special ref Bianca to explicitly screw Rhea and reveal herself as the heel. Double points if, after screwing Rhea, Naomi jumps in and helps Bianca take out both of them to confirm they've been in cahoots the entire time.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this and getting my hopes up but I really do think that Bianca (and this match) need this.
 


WOW! The sheer amount of copium on display from this man surrounding Rhea getting cheered and Bianca getting booed is just lolworthy. :pepecopium:

"Oh the European crowds are just contrarian."

The Madison Square Garden crowd did the same thing and, if they are so contrarian, why are they booing heel John Cena? Why is this the ONLY story in the entire company right now where they're reacting differently than intended?

Now okay other American crowds MIGHT react differently but I'm gonna love seeing his reaction if they don't. :maybe
