I'm going to be asking several questions, feel free to answer and discuss with one another. We are wrestling fans, no matter what promotion we watch, so let's discuss. Questions for this thread are as follow:

The Sin Cara Project: Does it still have the potential to be a success?

Is The Miz really a good promo guy?

Does TNA having their champion as Bully Ray, who was at best a midcarder in WWE, make them look like the minor leagues?

Should indy promotions continue using the live iPPV model?

JBL's transformation from tag guy to main eventer: The right move?

Have fun answering the questions, and let me know if I should keep doing these.

The Sin Cara Project: Does it still have the potential to be a success?
- Yes it does, all they have to do is pair him with the right guy to compliment his style because its obvious they wont be sending him to NXT (like everyone whined they should of). 

Is The Miz really a good promo guy?
- Yes, as a heel. His promos as a face are pretty much heel in nature except they're being done TO the heels.

Does TNA having their champion as Bully Ray, who was at best a midcarder in WWE, make them look like the minor leagues?
- No, he's the top heel in TNA and deserved a World Title run.  He's been a tag guy for a majority of his career and IMO he's earned his title runs.

Should indy promotions continue using the live iPPV model? 
- Yes, since a good bit of indy promotions dont have national television, this is a good way to put their product out there.

JBL's transformation from tag guy to main eventer: The right move?
- Yes, longest reigning WWE Champion on Smackdown and all around badass.

The Sin Cara Project: Does it still have the potential to be a success?
- No. That boat sailed the day he was introduced. I'm not entirely sure what WWE thought was ever going to come of this guy, but when your entrance involves jumping into the ring on a trampoline, he isn't going to the main event scene any time soon.

Is The Miz really a good promo guy?
- Yes, he is. But as a heel. He's bloody awful as a face and is just one of those guys that should only ever be a heel. He needs to be taken of TV for several months and brought back as the old Miz when he had a hat. Then, when he talks as a heel, people will give a damn.

Does TNA having their champion as Bully Ray, who was at best a midcarder in WWE, make them look like the minor leagues?
- No and anyone that thinks that is an idiot, a WWE Fanboy or both. Bully Ray worked his way to the top in TNA and can be regarded as one of the best heels going today. He even said in an interview recently, that WWE never allowed him to talk that much, but in TNA he was allowed a lot more freedom. So when the Bully gimmick was created, he was going to run a mile with it.

Should indy promotions continue using the live iPPV model?
- I have never watched any, and never will, so I'm not the best guy to talk about it tbh. But from what I heard, half of them never work for people anyway. But they need to make money somehow I guess, so they should probably continue, because TV just isn't interested in indy stuff I think.

JBL's transformation from tag guy to main eventer: The right move?
- Yes, easily yes. At first I thought it would be terrible, but then it turned out to just be simply awesome. JBL is and was a great character and he helped make Smackdown really watchable back then. JBL just has something about him that you want to watch and makes you laugh. He's also good on commentary, initially from his first run.

Yes the Miz is great at promos. It's his thing, he knows how to play the baddie very well and works the crowd well too.

The Sin Cara Project: Does it still have the potential to be a success?
--Not at all. Sin Cara has never been given the chance to learn what he needs to to be a success in WWE and America and is entirely the wrong build for a guy if they wanted another Rey Mysterio. The whole point of Rey is he is this underdog with charisma who can make you buy into a match. Sin Cara is just a spot monkey Lucha Libre guy who's never had to get fans emotionally invested before. You can't deprogram something like 17 years of wrestling training to make him into something else.

Is The Miz really a good promo guy?
--No. He's a good actor. Promos and acting are two different things. That's why you see actors are always so awkward in the wrestling ring because it's different to anything else in the world. Miz doesn't interact with the crowd on the level of a great promoist and generally plays an annoying heel more than an actual heel as in it's properly annoying to have him on screen rather than me hating him and enjoying having him there.

Does TNA having their champion as Bully Ray, who was at best a midcarder in WWE, make them look like the minor leagues?
--TNA's booking makes them look minor league. They're still caught up trying to make stable versus stable feuds work and still obsessed with guys who are well past their prime and guys who have no reason to be in a wrestling ring. They've got amazing talent like Austin Aries, AJ Styles, Christopher Daniels, Kazarian, Bobby Roode and even lesser known guys like TJP or whatever the fuck his name is in TNA (I think he's the new Suicide or whatever) but they continue to push Rampage Jacksons and Stings into the top feuds instead of these young guys. WWE have turned the corner and developed new stars in the past 24 months but TNA haven't been able to do it even when they've been handed huge stars like Austin Aries.

Should indy promotions continue using the live iPPV model?
--Yes. Wrestling isn't as popular as it once was and indy wrestling even less so the more that WWE dominates the market. Indy companies aren't going to get onto cable broadcasters consistently and it makes more sense to run iPPVs anyway to allow for a world wide audience without the cost of paying a world wide broadcaster to put it out there or dealing with contracts the world over to advertise and sell their stuff. The internet's everywhere and it's smart to keep their iPPV products coming.

JBL's transformation from tag guy to main eventer: The right move?
--I don't get the question? It was the right move for JBL because he became a World Champion after being a midcarder for years in WWE and it was the right move for WWE because they got a heel champion to help create their next set of stars in Brock Lesnar and John Cena? Stupid question is stupid.
