When did Aries announce that he'd be in the DustyClassic with a mystery partner? http://www.wwe.com/shows/wwenxt/article/2016-dusty-rhodes-tag-team-classic-teams-revealed?sf37659766=1 And what are the chances his partner turns out to be a certain messiah of the backbreaker?

Optimist with doubt posted:I am so happy big damo is in nxt I hope he's huge there. He didn't wear a suit, he's clearly hosed. Eltoasto posted:Joe should definitely lose and come up. If it happens it would be interesting to see how he is aligned, he's a natural heel but they need faces and he'll get a big pop. Well, Bryan still needs someone to fight his fight against the Miz at some point. Doubt it would happen, but it would give Joe a big face pop, and after a couple of months turning on Bryan would immediately give him massive heel heat.

Never heard of the Mannequin Challenge before, but the NXT/PC guys did their own version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Vi6ab2uHYU Pretty awesome, especially the dudes with the weights.

Sometimes I'm glad I read spoilers because that saves me from getting unnecessarily excited for the return of a wrestler I give a gently caress about only for it to turn out to be The Drifter.

Good, that means it'll be only a bit more than 2 months between Toronto and San Antonio, and a bit more than 2 months between San Antonio and Orlando, instead of 4 1/2 months between Toronto and Orlando. That should hopefully result in storylines progressing faster in NXT and the episodes being more important than they have been over the past half year.

AMReese posted:You've got to wonder how much of being worn out has to be Joe. Isn't that the furthest he's traveled in a long time, considering he was in TNA, or did he travel to Japan for them? Bound for Glory 2014 was a coproduced show with Wrestle-1 from Korakuen Hall. But yeah, other than that, the only abroad stuff was the yearly UK tour.

MysticalMachineGun posted:Last night's card: Don't forget that Strong was a regular in the early X-Division, that clearly makes him a TNA guy. Or even Tye Dillinger, who had a whopping 2 (dark) matches in TNA. Plus of course Shinsuke with his singular TNA Reaction match against Elix Skipper. Or Nikki Cross, who had a single match on British Boot Camp. Clearly they ALL are former TNA guys. Also, I'm fairly certain that from DIY it was Ciampa who had a couple TNA matches, not Gargano.

rovert posted:WWE has interest in Karen Q. Chinese American who speaks Chinese so she's highly sign-able. From the same Wrestling school as Deonna and Mia Yim is a fan: Given the amount of unnecessary flips before that forearm, she's probably more suited to tag with the Young Bucks at a PWG show.

And then he went to TNA, joined the Aces&Eights, and somehow managed to be worse than Garrett Bischoff.

What I find more interesting from that show: https://twitter.com/JJWilliamsWON/status/845808976658878465 Sounds like somebody realised that a) only having the top rope stunner makes her somewhat of a one-trick pony, and b) performing a move of the top rope that involves landing sitting down on your rear end might not be the best move for the long-term health of your spine, especially when done 100-150 times a year.

Benne posted:I'm assuming those are televised matches, since Asuka actually lost some tag matches at house shows where her partner ate the pin. The 163 includes house shows, on TV she's probably just around 30-40 matches at most. Also, tag losses where your partner gets pinned don't count.

As great as Tye finally winning was, I have to say the highspot of the match to me was EY's flying elbow. Looked brutal as hell and was perfectly executed, despite the height, whereas most people trying the elbow drop can barely keep their form just coming off the top rope.
