Time for a major quote fest;
Are the team of Wolfe and Magnus!
Fantastic, a team with a style that great contrasts the MCMG, a technician and a power guy with a mild amount of mat skill.
The question arises though. As well know how great Desmond Wolfe [Nigel McGuinness] can wrestle, will Magnus be able to keep up with the other 3 Men when these 2 teams go at it?
Absolutely, having watched them on Xplosion, especially the Ink Inc. match, Magnus has shown great ring awareness and much like BMI and the MCMG, this team has solid chemistry, with good double team maneuveres. Wolfe is a much better wrestler than Magnus, but Magnus is by no means bad and his look, combined with mic. skill and adequate ring skill should work out wll. Plus Chelsea has reverted back to her "valet distraction ways" which gives them the classic heel style characteristics.
The Guns just had a great 6 Matches in a row from Victory Road to The Whole F'n Show iMPACT! Special against Beer Money Inc. and came out on top. Now a new team waits in the wings to try and dethrone the Machine Guns, and if I can recall, Wolfe and Magnus have only had about 3, possibly 4, matches together.
What you're forgetting is that this is basically the British Invasion 2.0. Magnus spent most of last year and the begining of this one, wrestling alongside Douglas Williams who is a lot like Wolfe, being a technician. Magnus has had plenty of experience as the power guy who teams with a mat wrestler. On top of that, Wolfe is just downright good.
What do you guys think will happen here when The Guns take on Wolfe and Magnus? Who do you feel will win, and do you think this could be any good?
Personally I'd like to see them feud and have their first match for the titles be at the next PPV with the MCMG retaining, from then on there are a lot of possibilities, but I def. don't want to see MCMG lose right away after retaining. I still feel a multi-team feud leading up to BFG would be great. Currently TNA's got 6 proper tag teams and much like last year another multi-team match would be great.
I'm pretty sure the Guns can work with anybody. Obviously Wolfe is a quality guy in there and I'm pretty sure Magnus isn't completely shit. I mean, he can talk and whatnot. That should be enough to make it a good feud.
I suggest watching their matches on Xplosion, they're rather solid for a new team.
I have a bad feeling that Wagnus is going to win the titles here. TNA just does stupid shit like that. The Guns need to hold the titles as long as possible, because you know they'll disappear as soon as they lose them.
I agree, having the champs lose right away would be damaging to the entire division. Rather I'd like to see the MCMG come out on top the first few times then have both teams trade the titles back and forth.
Also, why the fuck are Chelsea and Wofe still together?
She likes the double penetration.
Eh. I do think the MCMG are prolly the most overrated thing in TNA today.
How? Aside from the Kings of Wrestling, The American Wolves and Beer Money I can't think of other teams who put out consistently great matches at all times.
Dudes have some of the sickest looking stiff kicks around.
someone forgot to tell them that selling is important
I'm sorry, watch the best of 5 series and tell me they can't sell the ass kickings beer money dealt out.
and mah gawd if there was a rule against set spots, they would've been fired a loooonnnnnnggggggg time ago.
Oh right, you're one of those people who thinks if it isn't 20 minutes of holds the match sucks.
Magnus is very charismatic and is okay in the ring while Wolfe.. I am not a fan of his ring work to be honest.
You like Magnus but don't like Wolfe? You smoke crack, yes?
Mat work that goes no where,
As opposed to mat work that goes to the movies?
at least 5 submissions that must be broken out of,
Well you know, he's a technician. And since he only has a single submission finisher and he generally uses the Tower of London, you can't blame him for that.
Now this just makes me question if you know who Desmond Wolfe is, where have you seen Desmond pulling off high-spots? Seriously, the guys uses submissions and lariat variations as about 80% of his move set.
If they just have Magnus squash MCMG, then it could be good. The guy is a pretty big dude, so there's no reason for Sabin and/or Shelly to be making Magnus flip around.
Yeah have the green guy squash the tag champs who just brought the equivalent of about 3 years prestige to their belts in the course of a month. That can't end badly.
This is great, for numerous reasons, first it gives both Magnus and Wolfe something to do. It also keep Wolfe away from Flair and Fourtune, because ever since he associated with Flair he's been a jobber. Magnus is pretty much set for tag action, seeing as the last time he was worth anything it was with Doug Williams in the British Invasion. Right here, we have a team who isn't anything like the other teams in TNA. They aren't brawlers like BMI and 3D, they aren't high fliers like GenMe/MCMG and they're not the brawler/high flier combo of Ink Inc. A technician/power team is great. And thanks to Chris Sabin I might finally get to see Wolfe use the rebound lariat and cause the victim of said move to flip inside out when it hits.
This is a great team, as evidenced by their work on Xplosion. With Chelsea as valet, who has no issue interefering in the matches it adds that classic heel team that's been missing ever since Jacqueline left BMI. Things keep heading up for the tag division.
