his superman punch doest seem as "badass" as they make it and very little about him is fresh!
he looks like he bought a "big daddy cool" start up kit.

He wishes he was Big Daddy Cool.

Great look, a star aura, the crowd pops for him.

What's he missing? Nothing IMO

I think people are going to sour on him cause of the push he's getting(I.e Cena in 05-06) but personally I don't see the reason to.

He's improving every facet of his game little by little. I'm a fan of his and I think he's got the makings of a huge star.

Do I think he's ready to become the Chosen One to take the title of Brock and be the poster boy of WWE's future? Not yet, but he'll get there.

Yeah people are going to turn on him so quick, especially if he wins the title anytime soon. Fuck fickle fans

Lets he honest about this, it's only a small niche group of people trying to put an end to the Roman Empire before it starts, he gets great reactions and only reason I can think why certain people who say he sucks or not ready are simply doing it because they think they should be the guys to pick the stars, even if their track record of guys they wanted as the next big thing were far from accurate.

If WWE does it....it's bad and they don't cater directly to me. I know better than people who have successfully done this for 50 years.

I'm not particularly excited about his return which is pretty bad seeing as he's been gone for a while and there's gonna be a few months of building him up to get the title. I liked him as part of The Shield but I think there's a lot missing and that's been exposed since he's gone solo. His promos need some serious improvement, it's like he's been told "be more charismatic" and it doesn't suit him, I enjoyed him more as a understated, softly spoken man of few words. His moveset is cool as fuck, but it's limited to 4 or 5 big moves and they'll get old quick if he keeps dishing them out like Skittles. I don't think it helps that he's kept the same ring gear and music either, Rollins and Ambrose feel really fresh with their new looks/music/characters. I understand them trying to keep The Shield gimmick going with one of them because it was so popular, but it does come across like the other 2 have gotten a complete overhaul and he's been left with the dregs of The Shield. I reckon he's a good choice for next 'face of the company' but the way they're going about it seems very rushed and contrived and he's gonna be getting booed as fuck by 'mania. Judging by Cena though they don't really give a fuck if half the crowd are booing someone who's supposed to be a babyface as long as the other half are buying their merch, and why should they.

I don't know either way to be honest. He has quite a lot to offer but also has flaws. Its how WWE handle him over the next four or five months which is key, plus his work rate. Face of the company is a big call, but lets give him a chance at least.
