Corzaa posted:Does Dean Malenko train guys or just do road agent things? Because If not he totally should. I would imagine there's some coaching involved in a hands-off capacity, but he's mostly doing agent stuff.

You can take one look at Bayley's face and know exactly why she would be mid to bottom on WWEs diva totem pole. That's a lovely thing to have to say but anyone who says otherwise is delusional.

Charles Gnarwin posted:That's the problem. You don't want to talk about NXT. You want to advance this idea if you as some sort of business insider who lords over knowledge like a dime store dictator. You picked a very focused and small subject that you may or may not have a source on, then spouedt cryptic posts and laughable conjecture with the hope that people would see you as more than a dude on a message board. This is all well and fine and I don't disagree, but there's a difference between responding to those instances and baiting him into the poo poo that's happened on here over the last few hours. It takes two to tango and all that, but there's nothing insidery about knowing why Steen's son is named Owen and the whole drat argument was set off by a post made specifically to set him off.

Simply put: - If you know it, say it. Nobody is reading Something Awful in Stamford looking for company leaks. - If you can't say it, just don't say anything - If something happens that you knew but couldn't say, nobody cares when you knew it

The answer isn't more talent on the show. It's less short, lovely matches.

Graves should milk the backstage job and save the second concussion test until after the glut of NXT guys gets called up. He'd be jobber poo poo right now.

I agree with Rovert. She's good and everything she's doing is still good but it's not really any better than it was in July or August.

Benne posted:The problem is they have too many "cool heels" and tweeners instead of guys the crowd actually wants to boo. I think the problem in general is they've whittled the casual base down to nearly nothing with their awful booking so you just have a ton of hardcores left who cheer good workers over intended alignments.

I think there are preview eps for each NXT special on the network as well if people want a crash course before they watch.

The amount of time is not ideal at all, but it could work if anyone gave enough of a poo poo to try to make it work. They don't, so it doesn't. The "not enough main event talent" argument is the result of a self-fulfilling prophecy so I don't really consider it valid.

achillesforever6 posted:It's kind of funny how in the mainshow this would piss people off because they love doing this type of countout finish all the time, but in NXT it doesn't happen so much and it builds towards the feud of Kevin running roughshot over everyone. The major difference is the main roster teases blowoffs only to deliver a gently caress finish whereas in NXT, the gently caress finishes build to the blowoff, as it should be.

I would say Uhaa and Cole have the best chances and they probably won't dip into the indies for anyone else until the NXT logjam clears.

I'd like to see HHH get full control of Smackdown and call NXT guys up to that show for a few months before they hit Raw so HHH can better integrate them into the main roster.

Suben posted:So since Adam Pearce retired, how long before he's brought in? He's done a few stints as a guest trainer already and worked as a producer at R Evolution so it seems like it's basically just a matter of when, not if. I'm pretty sure he retired because he's being brought in.

rovert posted:NXT tryouts are this week. The first indie name to come out is Crazy Mary Dobson. He's done a lot of TV work for WWE from being a Rosebud to being Miz's make up artist. Always stood out and got favourable reactions online asking who she is. I'm pretty sure Mandy Leon and Tessa Blanchard are in as well. Wouldn't be surprised if Scarlett Bordeaux was going, either.

The Columbus NXT tickets went on sale at 10 a.m. and it looks like balcony General Admission is the best available seating right now so if any goons want to go, you better order quick.

I feel like we're gearing up for a disaster here. Sounds like Vince has full on lost it and it's only a matter of time before something major occurs.
