It's Damn Real!
The undisputed, undefeated TNA &
I'll be honest I went into this match having been really unimpressed with that weak ass promo Bradley cut early on in the show before wrestling his match, but I came out much more impressed by how well he worked that strong Japanese style. It's been a while since we've seen a guy work that stiff, no? The kicker for me was two-fold, though. Not only did he win with a fantastic lariat (a move we haven't seen since the Desmond Wolfe days), but it's already been named as the Boom Stick. Hell, he's even got it plugged as a hash tag on his Twitter account.
For me, this is as clearest as a Gut Check contestant has ever been to a yes for me. He's got an awful tattoo and there's no much there by means of gimmick yet, but this kid (man?) has got great size and looks confident in his body in the ring. He'll need that extra little something to get it going for him, but with the smallest gimmick change I think TNA have got something here.
It's a yes for me.
