Sometimes the situations demand it to make them look even more vulnerable (Hogan-Bundy), but it doesn't happen as much as I thought it did.<br /><br />I think overexposure helps to kill that. Hogan selling a beatdown didn't happen the week after - he was on TV rarely.Basscasenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-18444096793516362882015-03-31T07:57:25.538-06:002015-03-31T07:57:25.538-06:00Even making Orton run through Show and Kane the ne...Even making Orton run through Show and Kane the next two weeks so he can get a match with Rollins would have been better.Brian_Baylessnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-65490773244583497042015-03-31T07:57:17.998-06:002015-03-31T07:57:17.998-06:00Same can be said for mongoloid.Same can be said for mongoloid.buckdiddynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-56086868951285541852015-03-31T07:57:08.334-06:002015-03-31T07:57:08.334-06:00It wasn't terrible but not what I'd place ...It wasn't terrible but not what I'd place in the "great" category.
