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

Speaking of Nakamura

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'm not really feeling it.

 

[Richard Blonoff]

While I was browsing the shop I came across American Alpha's shirt. It says Ready Willing Gable on the back. You just know when they split one day it will be due to Jordan's jealousy.

 

[Harthan]

I feel like Nakamura doesn't have any good shirts. It's sad. I have the one that just says "King of Strong Style" because I needed to own a Nakamura shirt.

I also really doubt he'll ever wear this shirt on TV.

The split of Alpha will be great. Jordan gets pushed as the pretty face & Gable can be the cocky heel who backs it up with pure skill. Although one will fall to the Jannetty rule eventually.

 

[Coco]

Fare thee well, Baron. We hardly knew you.

 

[Nate DaMac]

Seems odd. I don't think he's quite ready for the main show.

 

[a0161613]

I like the decision to put him in the ARMBR but it just like he had so much more to do in NXT, including a run of title matches.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Looks like we have lots of new faces to look forward to.

*lights a candle for Corbin, Crews, Vaudevillains and ENZO AND FUCKING CASS*

 

[Nate DaMac]

I don't know, I kind of just think Crews was being featured and not necessarily being brought up.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

When have they ever done that? With a dominant win? And his graphic said "debuts on raw "

Not to mention, the reports are out there that this was not the case.

 

[Nate DaMac]

They have totally done that. Neville and Zayn had a tag match against Breeze and... I'm drawing a blank on the other guy. Kidd maybe?

That's just what I was thinking though. If he's for sure called up... That might just be the strangest one yet. I don't know if he's going to get much of a chance. I give him a much better shot of getting over than the Vaudevillains though.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

He will do just as well as Neville. They are basically the same guy, but you can understand what Crews is saying.

And anyways, he is some character tweaks away from being a true asset

(GEE I don't say that 100 times a week)

 

[Tastycles]

I hope the Vaudevillains matches are completely conducted in black and white. They may as well go for broke if they are keeping the gimmick.

 

[Hyorinmaru]

Not having a car officially blows.

NXT is in Portland next month...only 1 hour away from me and I can't get there.

 

[Coco]

They can have Crews.

Shame on you for speaking of Neville like that, NorCal.

 

[Good Golly It's Ollie]

Enzo and Cass had a sexy Raw debut tbh. Corbin's was alright, he got a good first opponent in Ziggler. Would like him built a bit more on NXT but I don't mind as long as he gets enough focus on main roster.

Crews had a nice little showing but the whole Raw was stacked so I don't think it particularly stood out.

I may actually watch Smackdown this week.

 

[.]

Christ they made some bad call up decisions.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

They can have Crews.

Shame on you for speaking of Neville like that, NorCal.

Tell me I'm wrong

 

[Барбоса]

Charlotte had a one and done appearance on RAW too, although I don't think it was played up as her big debut.

 

[Uncle Sam]

When I see Crews have a match a fraction as good as some of Neville's, I'll give him credit. As it is, you could tear out Neville's tongue and he'd still be twice as charismatic as Crews.

Fuck Crews is what I'm getting at.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Crews' value would be as an old school babyface jobber. Perpetually popular, does some flip-de-doos, ultimately loses. He wouldn't even have to cut any ludicrously insincere promos.

 

[A11oftheLights]

I dont get the hate for Crews. Sometimes people need to remember that at the end of the day its still about getting people ready for the main roster and Crews just needed to work on his mic skills longer. I think they've called up just to be in the midcard shuffle. He doesnt need to give promos that way, has the look that Vince froffs but can still do the flips that the indie fans love and can still put on a good match. Crews isnt main event ready but he'll be fine in that mid card spot where nothing matters anyway. Which is why I also agree with Norcal that he will do just as well as Neville has, unless they're suddenly giving the midcard some focus.

Corbin on the other hand was definitely ready for the main roster call up, despite still having plenty to do on NXT. His character has pretty much been perfected and as long as they keep his promos simple like the one he gave tonight. He should thrive because if its one thing the main roster needs is credible main event calibre talent that are pure heels, because seriously who have they got not named Kevin Owens (who even then cant get a pure heel reaction)

If Crews is officially on the main roster now then I imagine he will do about as well as Breeze on the main roster, which is to say wrestling the majority of his matches on Main Event & Superstars, & occasionally jobbing on RAW & SD!
