Bray Wyatt is so immensely talented it’s ridiculous.

that was a great segment.

loved all the nwo call backs, plus Corbins as well.

wife HATES Bray Wyatt lol. claims he's WAY too creepy...

 

[The Q]

lol, it's bad when a wrestler misses a spot or 2 during a match, and Vince has been known to fire some of those wrestlers...

he wasn’t happy when the ref botched the pin fall at WM last year that let Botchy Lynch win the title

that’s kind of the point...lol

Especially after the stuff with the Miz

 

[The Q]

I know we all want Sasha/Bayley, but I appreciate having one friendship that is lasting a great while longer than most on screen friendships.

It's Botchy Rousey, not Botchy Lynch. A common mistake from you, no doubt.

I never said Rousey was great.

But she was also in her first year as a wrestler.

For someone who is supposed to be an expert, the real Botchy makes a lot of mistakes.

I still think breaking up Asuka/Paige was a mistake. She needed someone who could cut the mic for her to get her to the top. Like Heyman/Lesnar.

Five Superstars that Must Leave WWE - All Everything Entertainment - Sports, Entertainment, & Wrestling

What's interesting about this list is how SD heavy it is...and yet the SD roster is so thin and they can't find anything for these guys to do.

 

[Duffman]

That was terrible. It's like it was written by a 12 year old fanboy.

Sami Zayn is the only one on that list that can cut a promo. Which I hate to tell all of these internet Fanboys is 100x more important in wrestling than doing cool flips.

This is why Paul Heyman is so important to Brock Lesnar.

Brock Lesnar can't say two sentences worth a fuck. But he don't have to. Heyman does it for him.

Heyman showing why there are so many talents out there who will never get over because WWE has abandoned for the most part the art of the manager.

Wrestling history is filled with great workers who couldn't talk their way into a date with a fat girl but were able to sell tickets because their manager could talk for them.

Yokozuna...

I mean I was just talking about this with my cousin.

Bring back the Jim Cornette's and the Sunny's of the world.

Hell, I keep saying it, but keeping Asuka with Paige would've been so huge for her and helping her actually get treated properly by WWE.

 

[The Q]

Also, why is Otis stalking Mandy?

That was like the biggest takeaway from SD too.

which is interesting because

1) so few current varsity brand guys can either right now; and

2) nxt spends very little air time for guys cutting promos. If your pre-made video vignettes aren't excellent you have problems, and even most of those are very average at best.

We actually had a “miz and Morrison, hey hey ho ho” chant...

If they didn't want Fiend vs Roman for the title the other option was Fiend/Cena(where they’re likely headed) at WM for the title and that would result in even more fans bitching at WWE that Cena just returned and automatically got a title shot. Hell at least Goldberg has wrestled more than Cena in the past 3 years.

 

[ill]

yeah they should embrace it.

mike trout and mookie betts played aaa ball.

It’s also their biggest advantage against aew

but the best heel turn of 2019 on nxt was Finn balor, by far.

I don't think Finn is a heel...he's kind of bouncing back and forth

 

[The Q]

Fuck you vince.

just fuck you Dude

fiend should’ve been went through all of them (including cena) to build up steam since his best title defense before today was Daniel freaking Bryan.

Nah, thats just the nxt thing where they cheer for everyone on the home team.
