I do get a bit pissed off when some people openly discuss the NXT taping spoilers. They'll have spoiler bars for a page, then suddenly it's fair game.

For instance, I knew for nearly a month about the Drifter/Kassius match result because of here, and that only aired last week.

Stuff taped in advance is spoiler territory, because it hasn't aired.

Stuff on TV live and blasted all over news sites after and posted officially on YouTube and everywhere under the sun? That's not spoilers.

Shoot : Nakamura isn't the king of strong of style.

 

[Zach]

Fans can only come up with ideal matches, but planning out and evolving a story takes a ton of work. Never mind when an injury throws a wrench in the whole thing

I was joking, TarpenisCarnivore.

Shoot : Nakamura isn't the king of strong of style.

It's literally his given name.

 

[HazySaiyan]

If fans could book what would even be the WWE?

Literally everybody would be a heel

 

[Caderfix]

Shoot : Nakamura isn't the king of strong of style.

But is Nikki Bella still the queen?

Literally everybody would be a heel

Except for Sami Zayn and Bayley.

 

[Kaladin]

If I could book WWE, I would do everything I could to dispell the notion of a heel or a babyface.

 

[GolazoDan]

Are the FMW matches worth re-watching or am I just stuck in a nostalgia moment?

Onita's big matches are timeless, just great drama. A lot of the Tanaka/Gannosuke/Hayabusa stuff is still great too, big fan of Gannosuke.

 

[Rimfya]

I'd book every match finishing with a run in. Always. Ever. And then someone through a table. So they look hella good when cutting to commercial.

But is Nikki Bella still the queen?

No

And since we're talking about games, thanks to this thread I read the Persona 5 OT title as Lupin the Filth, which is wonderfully accurate.

My work here is

never

done.

 

[Kaladin]

Think about it, Roman Reigns could work in a WWE without heels or babyfaces. He'd be a widely hated man trying to get people to like him as he's on a road to success and fortune.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

I don't think I've ever seen a push killed so quickly in recent years as TJP's.

But is Nikki Bella still the queen?

Of course.

 

[Sephzilla]

MSPaint Zach is still your best gimmick

 

[Caderfix]

No

Well, at least she'll always be for Carmella:

Of course.

Batsie gets it.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Has Roman ever been stiff with a Superman Punch, though?

 

[BronsonLee]

I don't think I've ever seen a push killed so quickly in recent years as TJP's.

He can't talk

 

[jmdajr]

God damn Pepsi. lol!

How fucking lame. Hope no one out there has a Pepsi tattoo. Shameful.

[Caderfix]

He can't talk

He dabs, his video game stuff is lame, he can't talk, he dabs, he was a victim of the boring style the cruiser weights had to work on RAW and he dabs.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

He can't talk

Woah there buddy, how about we reload this conversation like I reload my save on my Nintendo 64 all the time.

 

[jmdajr]

2 days later, and I've still got the live 'Mains hangover. No idea how some did Raw and Smackdown.

Next week is the roster shakeup! And the week after that is the start of the shakeup!

woooooooooo!

 

[Toki767]

It's kind of amazing how practically everyone in the WWE seems to be a big fan of Nakamura.

Except probably Vince McMahon.

 

[Foggy]

The Flim Flam Flash is such a great nickname though

 

[Kaladin]

Dabbing makes me feel old because I don't understand it or anything about it or what makes it a thing.

 

[BronsonLee]

He dabs, his video game stuff is lame, he can't talk, he dabs, he was a victim of the boring style the cruiser weight had to work on RAW and he dabs.

I don't see much style change from TJP from indys to here but ya the dabbing is the true killer

Woah there buddy, how about we reload this conversation like I reload my save on my Nintendo 64 all the time.

He also can't deliver shit lines like this but that's mostly because he's a human

Who knows really. Wait until the merch sales.

Vince would not give him that debut last night if he didn't see star potential in him.

Eh, he really didn't do anything.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Of course.

TJ doesn't work as a baby. Even in the tourny he came off as a heel. He's good talent though but his character or whatever he is isn't there.

 

[Carnby]

Brahs, I Don't wanna hear about spoilers being spoilers cause YouTube brahs. YouTube.

WELCOME TO PUERTO RICO, THE SHINING STAR OF THE CARIBBEAN

Did they even have a push? They had their vignettes, then WWE botched their proper debut by returning from commercial too late and that was like it.

Plus at least with the Shining Stars they were just there. TJP was the first CW champion, got an elaborate entrance that even right now still stands out as very unique and different from the other Cruiserweight's and has more of a proper theme then the other ones too.

I mean, by all accounts WWE didn't even want to give him the win but Ibushi and ZSJ wouldn't sign and Metalik had dates to finish up.

 

[Sephzilla]

The Shining Stars push got killed because the moment they walked out for their proper debut they got greeted with a crowd so silent that Corpus Christi looked like Full Sail in comparison.

How do we know this?

 

[Roland_Gunner]

Shoot : Nakamura isn't the king of strong of style.

Dudes got a crown. He's the king until someone takes it. It is known.

 

[Caderfix]

Dabbing makes me feel old because I don't understand it or anything about it or what makes it a thing.

Goldberg's face is all you need to know about dabbing.

As soon as they got home, I bet Dadberg speared Dabberg.

 

[Zach]

Remove Carnby Asada from this thread.

 

[rrc1594]

lol Zach your alright guy

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I don't think I've ever seen a push killed so quickly in recent years as TJP's.

Because TJ is boring and uncharismatic? It takes more than video games and dabbing.

 

[Caspel]

Kids love TJ.

 

[sf2fanatic]

God damn Pepsi. lol!

How fucking lame. Hope no one out there has a Pepsi tattoo. Shameful.

Didn't he or have a move called sexy pepsi?

 

[Sinatar]

I just watched the replay

why did Nakamura come out? Miz did a promo, Nakamura came out and did... nothing?

Nakamura came out and was challenged by Dolph Ziggler, that was cut from the TV broadcast.

 

[Zach]

No

That's the babby-est babby kick I've ever seen.

 

[Menome]

Alas, I can't locate my .gif of that moment.

I never want to see Ziggler and Nakamura on screen together ever.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Dunno if anyone posted it, but on JR's podcast Meltz said that AJ/Shane will probably be his highest rated match of Mania lol.

Nakamura came out and was challenged by Dolph Ziggler, that was cut from the TV broadcast.

And no one gave a flying fuck.

Isn't that the consensus? I remember many agreeing with that in the Mania thread.

as it should be

Vader and Paul Orndorff got into a backstage fight at the Disney tapings a few days ago. It started as an argument over Vader arriving late and escalated until they were face to face, screaming at each other and then Vader shoved Orndorff to the ground. Orndorff got up and tried to tackle Vader and then wrestlers pulled them apart. During the pull-apart, Orndorff landed a perfect punch that knocked Vader silly. While Vader was on the ground on his back, Orndorff began kicking him in the face. Luckily, he was wearing sandals, so it could have been way worse, but Vader's face was completely busted up. After they were separated and Vader recovered, he went and found Orndorff and the fight started again and this time, both men came out bloody and black eyed. In the end though, Orndorff was widely seen to have come out the winner, with many people impressed that he managed to basically beat up a guy who outweighs him by 200 pounds. Since then, Vader is said to be apologetic and Orndorff has said he has no problem with Vader coming back. Still, Vader has been cast as the bad guy since many think he started it, and WCW is considering firing him over it. Orndorff is on the booking committee and is therefore somewhat of a supervisor and he did nothing to diffuse it, and Dave thinks both should be reprimanded. Vader is under contract through 1998 or 1999 and has a huge guaranteed contract of around $750,000 per year, so needless to say, he wants to keep his job and if he went to WWF, he wouldn't get nearly as good a deal. Vader wasn't acknowledged at all on the first Nitro.

THIS WAS A SHOOT!
