tweet my meat posted:I think Shayna does the mma crossover gimmick better than rousey. She has this vicious aura to her and easily sells herself as someone who can and will kick your rear end. Just needs a little bit more in ring experience and to work on promo delivery and she'll be an absolute monster heel, she could probably pull off a stone cold style face gimmick really well too. She's been wrestling a ton longer and worked indies all over. She's gonna definitely have a lot more to go on than someone relying on their reputation and coaching from the McMahons.

Dijak is incredibly good. It sounds like he's doing a weird gruff voice all the time in that match though? He doesn't normally sound like that.

He's got a lot from BOLA last year that are worth it if you have access to that. Lee/Dijak vs Cobb/Riddle on night one, Lee vs Dijak on night 3, and Lee vs Cobb vs Ricochet on night 3 are all great. It just struck me that four of the five people I mentioned here are signed to NXT now. Draxion fucked around with this message at 01:23 on Aug 4, 2018 |

Le Saboteur posted:Right now it feels like they're risking Gargano losing all his babyface heat by portraying him as completely insane and I'm not sure how they work their way out of it now. Honestly I would have bought into Ciampa showing off by tracking down whoever attacked Aleister and challenging them, because it's the "right thing to do as champion" or something. Heels who have moments where they do good stuff but in an extremely smug way are fun.

He's plenty good at doing professional wrestling. He's just not very exciting and his matches are usually filled with interference. It's the Ziggler problem.

Gumball Gumption posted:Christ, I hope WWE picks up 40 year old Beer City Bruiser, a mediocre everything who has never been in shape in his life. Maybe it will convince everyone else to stop thinking working for WWE means you made it. This except I watched his match with Goto and instantly loved him so he's actually good.

rovert posted:But Meltzer puts Duke over so strong. He does always qualify that with "for someone who's been training for six months," to be fair. Even like AIW doesn't put people on shows until they've trained for a year, it seems like WWE is jumping the gun on them so they can benefit from having Shayna around as a credible threat for as long as possible.

The playing to hard camera at the expense of performing like a human being mandate is inexcusable at this point. When people are doing things in-ring just put a cameraman in there with them like New Japan does. Everyone there knows you're making a show, having a cameraman visible for a minute isn't a problem.

The Kimoa Kid posted:Any of y'all been to an NXT live show? Just bought tickets, hoping to see Kairi Sane and no one else. I went last February, right after Johnny Gargano had been "fired" but was doing his last tour. I also live in Cleveland. Zelina Vega was meant to do some sort of promo before the mixed tag match they'd been main eventing that tour with but was entirely inaudible over the like ten minutes straight of Johnny Wrestling chants. They're fun shows.

KOR is an insanely talented guy and I want to see him wrestle Matt Riddle more. I've seen it twice and it hasn't really been enough. Also, I'd like either of then to ever wrestle Shibata again, but that seems less likely.

Gaz-L posted:There's a Riddle vs Suzuki match from, I think, RevPro a year or so back, and it's insane, just the two of them grapple-loving and slapping the piss out of each other. Is this a different one than their match at Bloodsport last year, because if so that one's also incredible. He also had an awesome RevPro match with Shibata in early 2017, which is what I think got me to love him. Draxion fucked around with this message at 09:20 on Mar 21, 2019 |

Their next challengers are probably just the Forgotten Sons so there's another two-three months to build them or other challengers. There's no actual reason to take the belts off War Raiders anytime soon though.

2* is meant to be a dead average match, not necessarily a bad one. An average match that the crowd liked less than average seems fair to put at 1.75.
