JT Smiley posted:As someone who is more of a casual wrestling fan I was glad that the finals were so shocking. I just assumed that Ibushi was gonna win from day one and the fact that, that didn't happen was really refreshing, especially because the odds on favorites didn't need the win. I agree with the sentiment, but TJP vs. Metallik wasn't a final that I cared about. If you'd replaced TJP with Swann I would have been all over that poo poo.

Divari not shaking hands in the first round of the tournament was absolutely perfect though. That was a match where he did everything he could do to get over his less skilled opponent and obviously worked heel to get the crowd behind him. Of all the guys who lost in the first round he's the one I'm probably most interested in seeing more of.

It was Divari against HoHo. Ali shook hands but he worked a very aggressive heel style, while Divari openly heeled it up from his entrance onwards.

TJP is a pretty good wrestler and a good inaugural champion since nobody would really care if he was chasing the title out of that final 4 bracket. That coupled with his availability and willingness to roll with virtually everything the WWE suggests makes him a natural fit.Skinty McEdger posted:Divari not shaking hands in the first round of the tournament was absolutely perfect though.

Of all the guys who lost in the first round he's the one I'm probably most interested in seeing more of. Arya Daivari deserves a spot on the NXT roster. Every promotion needs a good, solid heel jobber (that isn't Elias Samson). Maybe they could throw enough money at his brother to have him come out of pseudo-retirement just to beef up the tag team ranks.

I'm really disappointed that The Brian Kendrick won't be going to Smackdown. Daniel Bryan's unabashed love for his old buddy was one if the best things about the tournament, and I wish the DB/Kendrick manlove train could continue.

Is there still time to make the story that D-Bry, in a fit of ill-advised personal pique, traded the Miz for his old pal TBK thus robbing SmackDown of its #2 champ and a major star to give his weird pirate friend a cushy job?

I'm fine with TJP being champion because despite the underdog story they were telling us, he was wrestling like a heel, and I expect his character to reflect that on the main roster. TJP being a cocky heel who dabs at people could make for some good TV.

whatever else you think about ol' Tiny Jorts Perkins, he has been shown on tv picking up an adult human man and is therefore verifiably stronger than Roman Reigns.

Goddamn, that made me laugh so much when Roman struggled to lift Kevin Owens last week, when like two weeks before, Neville loving deadlifted him for a german suplex. Roman is weaker than a small baby elf man from England.

I really hope this culminates in it rapidly blowing up in Bryan's face because Miz is a tool but a tool that's easy to control if you stroke his ego, but Samoa Joe is The Most Vicious, The Most Vile, The Most Violent Competitor In WWE. Bryan uses him as a mercenary to get the belt, then a months later, Joe is ripping his midcard apart and he can't do poo poo to stop it.

I like tjp's look. For whatever reason he reminds me of little mac from punch out. He seems like a natural heel and i hope they go that direction with them.

Cole: What's TJ Perkins doing out here? That's the Cruiserweight champ and this is a Women's division match-up! Oh my God! Patriarchy Lock on Dana Brooke! He's screaming something, what's he saying? "Equal pay, equal work?" This is insanity! Corey: Face it, Cole. The Western male has been on the decline for decades and finally, FINALLY someone in the WWE Universe is here to put a stop to it. Byron: You can't be serious! Corey: That's exactly the sort of response I'd expect from a blue-pilled, beta bitchboy. *Corpus Christi crowd chants "YES!"*

Sanguinia posted:TJ Perkins is the New England Patriots of Cruiserweights. A giant piece of poo poo who wins even though everybody hates him and always beats the people everyone loves, and also acts like he's the beloved hero despite those other facts. I like Rich Swann a lot, probably more than most, but Cedric Alexander is the obvious guy to carry the cruiserweight division of the people they've signed. Sami should absolutely not be moved to the cruiserweight division, he should be in the main event scene especially now that Owens is a world champion. Marquis de Pyro posted:It's absolutely OK to dislike him, as long as people admit that much like Roman Reigns, their hated is based on his race. The 'smarks just don't like Roman Reigns because they're all racist!' thing is such an eye-rolling concern troll when the New Day is still thoroughly beloved despite their segments being mostly dogshit for months.
