DarkstarIV posted:Dave shot down those reports. And Nakamura has said he has no desire to go back right now since he moved his family over here. And also as long as WWE keeps paying him, he will be happy. He's pushing 40 and beat up, so I can imagine taking Vince's money to work the midcard is just fine with him.

My co-worker's 10 year old son is a wrestling fan and he's absolutely a smark. -His favorite wrestler is The Boogeyman. -He recognized and called out to Larry Zbysko outside a convention. (Larry apparently went "How the hell does this kid know who I am?") -He's happy that Daniel Bryan is a heel now because it means he's getting a main event push. Kid owns.

Notably they pulled Gargano from that match (I'm surprised they didn't switch him to the heel team and have Fish sit out) and replaced him with Riddle on the babyface side.

I'm morbidly curious what a Ziggler G1 would look like.

Probably pretty good, his issue has never been that's he sucks. It's that he constantly, inexplicably, gets put in months-long back and forth feuds with anyone who has any sort of heat. What I really want to see is Ziggler in Suzuki-gun. Draxion fucked around with this message at 19:04 on Dec 26, 2018 |

Oh my god, Ziggler being a prick with ZSJ and Taichi would be incredible.

Ziggler is an ok wrestler but his gimmick is his personality turned to 11, he is a legitimately unlikable person and no promotion is going to fix that.

I would love a Ziggler NJPW run. He can have really great matches and if he's cutting promos like ZSJ or Juice, I think he instantly becomes more enjoyable than when giving the "NIGHT AFTER NIGHT I BUST MY rear end" promo for the last ten years. He is dumb and not funny but if we're talking about Americans that NJPW could use, I'd much rather see Ziggler than Elgin.

The best description I've ever heard of Ziggler is "Billy Gunn before the Radicalz arrived." He was a solid hand with a generic "good look" who was considered to have all the tools because he was OK at everything, at a time when the WWE was hiring based on looks rather than talent. He might have developed into an elite talent in a better environment, or if his head wasn't so far up his own rear end. Even if he left WWE, I'd expect him to be a better fit for Impact or MLW than New Japan. Edit: I was gonna say that he could have the most forgettable matches on a BOLA, but apparently the latest BOLA wasn't all that great.

If he was Xavier Woods, it would be awkward to rebrand, but because Austin Creed is a gimmick he owns, he can keep it even if he leaves.
