So the UK Championship is the only one not being defended on Wrestlemania or Takeover this weekend?

The best part of ec3's entrance was his butt wiggle and they fuckin cut it out of the youtube clip. Also I'm very excited for the floppy boi ricochet.

Hyped as gently caress for Takeover. I still don't understand for the life of me why they looked at their statuesque former-marine good-mother all-American really-strong lady and thought "she needs to be an unlikable heel." I also still don't understand why Vanessa Borne is on the roster.

The North American Title isn't the horrid palette swap everyone feared, and actually looks really nice; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJExbQZ4OZs Also STAC Goat, in case you're curious, here's EC3's first entrance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ui8xCg8DD4

abraham linksys posted:no worries! i ended up hanging out with some locals who were happy to explain the angles to me, haha. this is obviously kinda off-topic for this thread but both shows that weekend were an absolute blast, and I was particularly impressed by the local women - wouldn't be shocked if some of them end up in NXT, in addition to heading off to Stardom and whatnot Yeah Debbie and Raven have been touring that match around Ireland, and they're being trained really well. We have a few schools run by people who came up in the 2000s when the scene was dead in Ireland, so they were touring Europe, a lot of that knowledge is being passed along now within Ireland. Valkyrie and Katey Harvey have more experience than Debbie and Raven, they go to GWF in Germany these days. I'd say Debbie Valkyrie and Raven could all make the move. Katey I hope does, but she might not have the look they want. she's great though. He's absolutely lovely as a person. He dislocated a thumb on friday, broke it attempting to put it back in, and still wrestled a match on the Saturday. He works really well with Martina, they have a sort of 'She irritates the poo poo out of me but I love her' relationship. Like she's a dog who keeps shagging the carpet. I'd see him as good on 205 live, but I'm not sure Vince at least would see him going higher. I hope he does though.

Count me as one of those who think Lacey Evans' gimmick really is terrible. I haven't got a goddamn clue what they're trying to do with a 50s pin-up look combined with commentary constantly referring to her as a hardass military veteran.

Lacey seems to have bad ideas for gimmicks anyways. I think both of her recent gimmicks have had at least some sort of xenophobia or racist elements involved. Her other gimmick was being paired with the Forgotten Sons, which is apparently a racist version of the Revival according to some house show stuff. Also maybe Rovert can confirm/deny this, but I have heard Lacey is incredibly paranoid/bitchy at the PC and oversees tryouts. Which is a recipe for disaster.

You've probably seen other wrestlers do the things he can do, but he does them with a smoothness that makes everyone else look levels below him (Also he can do a 630) Edit: Ospreay would be the 1B to Ricochets 1A in the rankings of high flyers in the world

 Was this week's nxt TV a good recap? Missed most of the tv since last takeover outside of reading spoilers due to life events (and now vacation travels) and wondering if I should try catching up with it or stick to whatever packages are on wwe.com

Today I finally decided that my need to see Johnny Wrestling get revenge is stronger than Kenny beating up Cody so I'm on the Hype Bus. (Besides, I expect Takeover will be done before the big ROH matches. WHY ARE THE TWO SHOWS OPPOSITE EACH OTHER WHYYYYYYYYY?)

Rarity posted:Is he flipper than Will Ospreay? Will Ospreay is a dorky white dude trying to imitate Ricochet. Every thing Ricochet does has more weight and snap to it and he makes it all look effortless. Ricochet is also way stronger and a top tier wrestle hunk. It's slipped through the discussion but I can't believe how effectively and succinctly the NA title video package got across every character. The future of WWE video packages is in good hands.

The UK title looks a bit silly since they only regularly use 3 UK guys and the rest of the title defenses are just against US guys. I thought PROGRESS and EVOLVE were supposed to be feeders for the WWE, they really should just go all-in and show clips of those promotions and the belts being defended at them on a Saturday Night clip show or something.
