The NXT Thread Is Like Ring of Honor's Bay-Bay!

[Барбоса]

While the lack of Bryan as the ultimate bully-stopper was a problem, it should not have stopped Sheamus from bullying all those smaller than him.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

These questions/statements are mostly for Sam.

Oh, ok

 

[Coco]

Oh, ok

You still watch NXT?

I thought you'd have grown out of wrestling by now. Your sig doesn't fool me.

 

[Nate DaMac]

Norcal is probably our biggest NXT mark. No offense to Sam.

 

[Coco]

Balls to Sam then.

Underused WWE mainstays coming down for extended stays to give NXT a fresh "veteran" presence: Yay or nay?

First choice: Definitiely Ryback?

If NXT can milk one of the best matches of the year out of Rhyno, it can do anything.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Well I never!

Absolutely, I was actually just advocating this the other day on the podcast, with not only underused WWE guys, but also legends working the indies for say, a month at a time. Give me a tag title cage match between the Mechanics and The Nasty Boys or give me death.

The only way true development happens is when you work with guys who know more than you.

on the other hand, you could also move mid card floaters down to a spot were they would add name value to the brand, and also be appreciated by NXT's audience

Goldust
Cesaro
Leo Kruger
Bo Dallas
Chris Jericho
Johnny Curtis


Is a solid blend of veterans and guys who could be doing SOOOOOOO much more with their talents


Short term (3 or so months) guys id like to see come help out, do some jobs

Scott Steiner
Ricky Steamboat
Jim Duggan

and further guys in the Rhyno / TBK mold.

Basically anyone out there on the roster or working Indies that has territory experience.



I don't think Ryback would be given a proper chance by the NXT audience, brotha. I understand the idea though.

Which match was that? I thought Rhyno was used very well but he needn't come back.

 

[Coco]

Which match was that?

Rhyno/Corbin vs Gable/Jordan at Respect.

Though it could be argued that Rhyno's impact on the match's quality was negligible.

...Best matches of the year? That's overrating that one pretty heftily. It was solid. Not great.

 

[Coco]

So be it. It's in the back half of my top ten. Though I don't have anything past my top five organized.

Of course I tapped out on TNA last year (didn't watch a single match or segment), haven't had the chance to get into LU, barely watch anything from Japan, and only just sort of keep up with ROH. So my worldview is very WWE-centric.

Even then you probably think I'm overrating it. To which I say, that's fine.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I think it's his new gimmick. Well, I say "new"...

 

[Coco]

I think it's his new gimmick. Well, I say "new"...

Did my sig tip you off?

 

[Uncle Sam]

Either I don't know what you're talking about or you don't know what I'm talking about or both. All I know is

...Best matches of the year? That's overrating that one pretty heftily. It was solid. Not great.

has been Xfear's catchphrase since, like, 2011. I really liked those Cody Rhodes/Rey Mysterio matches, you fucker.

 

[Coco]

I suspected you were accusing me of working a "heftily overrates things" gimmick.

Most people would say tolerating Girls is heftily overrating it, so, yeah. Woosh.

That's my bad. This one's on me.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

So yea, his happened....

Spoiler

Meltzer reporting WWE signed Nakamura, AJ Styles and Bullet Club

 

[Richard Blonoff]

Yeah, and reddit is just as sad as Meltzer is about the whole deal.

 

[Coco]

Cole just plugged the WWE Network in Japan. Lol.

Aye, I am X, the all mighty burster of bubbles. Your good time does not compute, for the only good times are those I approve of. LEAVE IMMEDIATELY AND BURN ALL OF YOUR SAMI ZAYN MERCHANDISE.

No, but really, match was good. I enjoyed it quite a bit. "Best matches of the year" however....just...no. That was barely the best match on the show let alone year.

I enjoyed those Rey/Cody matches too especially their 'Mania one, was like a real life superhero battle. No MOTY candidates there either though. I don't know, feel like I just have a lot higher standards than a lot of people.

Haven't seen Girls but I gathered from your sig that you enjoyed it.

Can't stand that Lena Dunham honestly. Fucking Tumblr SJW feminazi at it's very definition. I pity her more than dislike her I guess. Like a freshman at college who just discovered who Noam Chomsky is. Kind of sad.

I...you....I mean....where....when....why.....how....what time....what color dress....WHERE WHY WHEN HOW WHAT THE FUCK WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT

MY PENIS IS CURRENTLY IN MY HAND AT FULL MAST.

What Bullet Club members though? Cause that's a pretty big stable. Still....FUCKING STYLES AND SWAGSUKE IN MY WWE?!?!?!?!?

Agree with all of this. She's a walking meme. Still, I try not to let my appreciation of art be spoiled the fact that some artists are shitty, shitty people.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

I'm gonna have to wait and see on this one... Meltzer has been wrong before. Has any of the "insiders" on reddit confirm this?

Edit: but HOLY SHIT if it IS true, Nakamura v Demon Balor? In a WWE Ring?

Very similar to my reaction when I read the post in the WWE section.

I about had a heart attack

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Well, my need for Hideo Itami just lessened like...exponentially. If he's lucky he'll return before Nakamura finishes his ROH dates in February.
