I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

I thought he'd already mentioned he was moving back to NXT when the split happened tbh.

As much as we've said they should send guys from the main roster to NXT, this is 100% the wrong way to do it. Sending a Ziggler or a Sheamus would be one thing, that's putting it on par with the two 'real' shows by showing that guys who largely made it are going to this brand and it's not a downgrade. By only sending the guys who've utterly failed and been misused, it's likely going to give NXT a perception of being where the geeks are.

Mia Yim has been racking up a decent number of wins as of late, so she's getting a title shot. Given, I feel like she's either just a filler challenger for Shayna, or she's gonna be getting the Kairi Sane treatment if she does happen to win (win the title only to drop it at the very next big event).

People being sent back to NXT still need to be low enough on the kayfabe tier list where I won’t just assume they will always win in NXT and won’t feel like they are being buried for losing. Fashion Police fit that quite well. Tyson fit that quite well, too.

The scenarios where I think it would've been okay is if they sent one or two guys maximum, preferably a veteran who needs to reinvent their character (Like TJ Perkins did) or someone who got called up way too quickly and could have benefited staying down there a little longer (Like Killian Dain)

Moving down Fashion Police & Apollo just kinda of feels like someone's trying to purge the main rosters of toys they don't want anymore, regardless of how good everyone sent back down is.

My dumb fantasy booking would've been waiting until after the Kofi/Ziggler feud where Ziggler gets pinned clean in a "Loser leaves TV" match and shows up at NXT, acts like he's too big league for everyone there and goes on a losing streak because he gets rolled up one week by Shane Throne one week, Roddy uses TUE to beat him next week, Kassius Ohno just knocks him out in 5 seconds flat one week because Ziggler wasn't paying attention, and just push the story that he's been coasting all this time and really make him work as an underdog and PROVE he was that drat good the whole time instead of just saying it for years against guys a decade younger and twice as talented.

Interesting fact. If Shayna retains at Toronto, she will very likely break Asuka's record of longest combined days as champ.

Yup. And if Shayna retains at Takeover: Toronto, I don't see her losing the title before War Games unless they decide at the last minute to do another Evolution PPV this year.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.
