Right. Him being seduced by the Wyatts because he's delusional/naive does make some sense.

I definitely think that he's debuting as the advertised character though.

He's a heel who thinks he's a face. The crowd will chant "Boring" he'll say "Yes this is Bo's ring." The crowd chants "No more Bo!" He'll respond "Aww I know you want to know more about Bo." It's great.

Right. Bo debuts as Bo, but that's a gimmick with a shelf life and an obvious ending. When it happens, there's big brother to take him in and comfort him.

Apparently there was an Undertaker death hoax going around over the past week. Someone who believed it was real posted it on facebook this morning. I started freaking out until I saw the date on the article as 5 days old. The quotes attributed to Mrs Taker McCool in the article were pretty lol too. They had me for about 10 seconds though.

Lol at talking about Bo's shelf life as the Bolieve character before he debuts.

Just to confirm everyone else realises he will be one of the biggest heat drawers in this gimmick, right? Lets plan how they end one of the best characters in wrestling right now after he comes off the boil, not before they even start going. He could easily get years of solid heat out of this gimmick.

I think it's a mistake to prolong any gimmick that's basically got a foundation in delusion, especially the "reality era". Maybe you could coax a few years out of it, but I think the most compelling storyline from the Bo Dallas gimmick could be his realization/downfall.

Plus Cena's doing it already anyway.

Nah, Cena is a huge troll but he acknowledges his haters frequently.

I was mostly joking, but that's just the next level version of the gimmick. He's still trying to get over by doing that. At a binary level he's still a guy pretending to be a face who is now a functional heel.

Are you guys serious? Open your eyes. WWE is going full Brodus Clay on this one. Hyping him up with vignettes for a month, then they disappear, then 3 months later he debuts as Disco Inferno Volume II.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I was watching The Ultimate Fighter Brazil last night and I'd really really really like to see WWE reach out to Gabi Garcia. She'd be the ultimate Monster for the divas division. I'd estimate that she's like 6'2"/6'3" 230lbs+. She makes Chyna look like a little school girl. She's a BJJ black belt under Fábio Gurgel.

Who the **** would she wrestle? Maybe if you cloned her and made 4 more you could have a legit division, but that just wrecks everything.

If anything, just hire her to be Ms. Khali.

The last time the E had a monster heel woman she sat and cried in the middle of the ring because she wasn't as pretty as the rest of the girls.

She could be like the female version of Kane. Better yet, she could be Sister Abigail (the Wyatts).

I dunno, The Miz? Dolph Ziggler? Cody Rhodes? She doesn't have to wrestle that often to be entertaining. Just bust in during some boring Divas matches and wreck Divas.

That's a good point regarding WWE writing. Albeit, with Gabi in the division Kharma would have nothing to cry about.

Signing a female Big Show would be a terrible idea.

Yes and they already tried with that huge woman in the old NXT who turned it to be super green and was quickly released.

It's not even clear that woman above could wrestle a pro match even if she wanted to. If she walked in and was as bad as Eva Marie she wouldn't be seen as credible. Kharma had that credibility from a decade working in the ring around the world.

If they wanted more of an Amazonian look they could just pick up Madison Eagles or Cheerleader Melissa. Who are really really good in the ring already and as a bonus are both pretty if you are into that look (let's be honest, it matters) and would look huge next to the current divas.

Amazonian look? Gabi Garcia doesn't have an Amazonian look. She has around 100lbs on the two Amazonians that you mentioned. Gabi Garcia is the 2nd coming of the Beast Incarnate. Ok, screw WWE. I'm taking this idea to Japan where I know the masses will love her just like they loved Giant Silva and Bob Sapp.

If the divas division has to exist, they could improve it by signing ODB.

There is 5-10 good looking women on the independent circuit that can wrestle circles around ODB.

Yeah not sure how Garcia would go getting over, there is much more to being a pro wrestler than just being big/good at fighting.

Also, as terrible as the divas talent in the division is, the booking needs to be fixed first before the division isn't terrible.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Naomi/Paige get a decent feud even if they just let it happen.

But no it has to be "OMG 50 women in a ring! How amazement!"

Somebody with a massive physical advantage over the whole rosters is just a booking nightmare. (like with Show, there's no good way to book him as strong as he should be and keep him out of the ME scene, but we know he doesn't really belong there). Especially for what the WWE seems to want to do with the Divas, any sort of giant monster hoss just doesn't fit on the roster.
