skaboomizzy posted:What in the actual hell are they doing with Aron Rex "Wrestling's Liberace" is the concept, I believe. I can understand how it might be hard to tell, given the embarrassing execution (p. sure Liberace wouldn't wipe his rear end with that godawful fake-fur robe, for one, and his rings look like he raided a vending machine for them).

Makes sense to me, nothing is more culturally relevant to young adults in 2017 than Liberace.

Ah, but think of the trails he's blazing for other wrestlers! After all, no one has ever before adopted the gimmick of "surrounds self with luxury, wears fancy robes to the ring". He's so original!

Dalton Castle is wrestling's Liberace. Why is Cody still in TNA? I thought he crossed Mike Bennett off of his wish list.

Why are we calling the gimmick "Wrestling Liberace" and not "Gorgeous George Rip Off"

Why didn't TNA just sign The Maestro? He's just as entertaining and would work even cheaper. OOH LA LA

Couple things, as I periodically pop into this thread more out of curiousity than anything: 1) Gangstas in SMW was pretty awful for a lot of reasons, but it did have some strong New Jack promos, and the gem of a line "I've been to College and I have a criminal record, so I know how to make decisions". I've often thought that if New Jack were as good as like, Steve Armstrong or someone similar, in the ring, he could have been a world champion somewhere. Dude was a fabulous promo. Also understood the promo principle of "Dangerous psychopaths don't HAVE to raise their voice". 2) Looking at spoilers for this company makes me sad, because there's some really talented people and this crap is their first TV exposure in some cases. Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, Eddie Kingston, Braxton Sutter, Marshe Rockett, they deserve better. I realize they made the choice to go there, but that doesn't make TNA less of a hellhole.. I hope the whole "WWE no longer sees TNA/Impact guys as poison" thing holds true for them and not just guys who were enormous indy stars before TNA.

It's makeup. It gets a bit more outlandish and noticeable weeks later when he wrestles
