Ummm, no, I'm pretty sure they CAN. And they HAVE.

regals an exception to the rule you cant deny vince has pushed him.
Watch me do it right now.
Quote:
remember when he was king of the ring and GM? Did Vince plant drugs on him so he could suspend him? No he fucked up didnt he?
He wouldn't have become world champion anyway. That ENTIRE push was designed for Mr. Kennedy. The plan all along was for Kennedy to dethrone Regal from power, get rid of the big power threat in WWE and thrust Kennedy back into the main event picture, but Regal got suspended so they threw that angle in the trash. He was not getting pushed ANYWAY, it was never in the cards.
Quote:
That was his second violation too, Randys had his second violation recently and his floating now.
Jeff Hardy didn't get punished for his second. NO excuses.
Quote:
Wade is in a better position then Regal, younger, dare I say has more charisma and just just better on the mic.
I'm a bigger Barrett fan but he doesn't have more charisma than Regal. He has a better look, more stage presence and is arguably better on the mic. That's extremely debateable. Either way, he has enough to be pushed. Randy Orton has none and look at him. And no, he's not in a better position, he's in the same position, and he will be in the same position forever UNLESS he wins the world title, because there are only 2 positions, there are the guys who have been world champion, and the guys who have not been. Wade Barrett is no more accomplished or better off than Aiden English or Jake Carter on NXT. That all hinges on the world championship.
Quote:
Now if you have proof that regal didnt screw up his major push towards what looked like a WWE championship I will agree Vince is a bigotted piece of shit who needs to retire before he kills his creation.
No, I'll admit he screwed up, but I know the angle was never for him. Every credible source of the day made it perfectly clear it was orchesrated solely for Kennedy.
Vince has never had one English world champion in the history of his company. You would think that with all of the English wrestlers available to him, ONE of them would've won the title by now, in 30 years of him running the company. It's not like Barrett is Vietnamese or something and Vince can't get access to any, English wrestlers are EVERYWHERE. There is no excuse that not one of them has won the title. Even if it was a bad one, just to prove that he's fucking with Barrett for something other than his nationality. And there's not. Fantastic look, great on the mic, huge presence, carries himself well, he's a good brawler and WWE likes their good brawlers, he's proven that he can handle the pressure of carrying the biggest storyline in the company and he's never caused any problems in the back. If he was Irish he'd be as accomplished as Sheamus, I'm convinced of it.

Oh, ok points to you for that. I think the one big difference between Sheamus and Barrett BESIDES Sheamus being a main eventer is Barrett will be remembered for good reasons, whereas Sheamus is a Batista clone, tough motherfucker who you buy as a threat but one dimensional as all shit....ok his worse then Batista which means years from now people will forget his run at the top. Yes I despise the fella that much.
I don't even buy Sheamus as a threat, I take one look at him and start laughing. That is NOT what you want a main eventer to look like.
But no, anyways, the one difference between Sheamus and Barrett is Barrett won't BE remembered and that's entirely WWE's fault for refusing to push him, he's gonna end up like Carlito or Kennedy or Benjamin. When he retires, Sheamus is gonna have like 12 world titles and Barrett will have none. That's a damn shame. And if, by some miracle, something happens where Vince owes somebody a favor and they tell him to put the belt on Barrett, one 2 day reign at best. That's all he can get. We're actually at the point where the best heel on the roster can't get pushed. That's wrestling in 2012.

Re: Smackdown 10/19, Main Event & SMS Spoilers
Ya know who's buried? Yoshi Tatsu. Ya know who isn't? Barrett and Miz. Please learn the difference between the levels of these guys.
Looks like a decent show overall. I'm OK with Sheamus/Barrett for a third time because the first 2 were entertaining matches and Kane/DBD vs. Show and Ziggler should be decent for what it is. I'm pretty shocked to see Slater go over Brodus but hopefully this is the beginning of that rumored Clay heel turn.
Your obsession with Vince hating brits is just painful to read about at this point...
he created a title for Bulldog, put him in many major storylines & mainevents, he only lost once in the UK (specifically to make the rematch even bigger) and did great in a few royal rumbles. That's after being fired for HGH (and other misdemeanors) and jumping ship multiple times. Also by direct comparison WCW did nothing with him!
Barret hasn't had much heat since a little after Nexus, even when he put Orton out.... There's been appearances on Raw with zero reaction. You can try to justify it anyway you want, the audience just doesn't care about him.

None of that matters, he didn't win the big one. End of.

They don't care about him because he's been fucked with so many times and the audience knows there's no point in getting invested in someone Vince will just do start and stop pushes on. He was the biggest heel in the company, by far, and how does the WWE respond to this? That's right, they bury him 6 feet deep, having him do jobs for people like Ezekiel Jackson, because that is EXACTLY what you're meant to do when a talent gets red hot, destroy them. Then when they give him an elevation, they don't take it seriously again, he gets a few fluke wins over Orton and then Orton absolutely murders him by RKO'ing him onto a car, a chair, throwing him into a buffet table, whatever the fuck you can think of, then they hype him as the potential Rumble winner and he gets thrown out in 5 minutes like he was nothing, then he gets injured and he comes back and they REFUSE to give him a microphone, the tool most critical to his getting over, when talking is his biggest attribute, and they have him beating jobbers instead of getting back into a feud. And you DARE suggest that that's down to him sucking? Bullshit.
Also, if you want to justify that he's not being pushed because he's not over
Royal Rumble win, Money In The Bank, 2 WWE Championships, clean victories over the likes of Orton, not dirty, CLEAN, absolutely legit, 100% clean, and dead silence in absolutely every single arena across America. FUCK overness, since when did the champion draw in this day and age anyway? Nobody moves ratings or buyrates but Cena and the part timer legends.
