Hey Scott,
Know you're a big NXT booster, as am I, but thinking about the treatment of Emma on the main roster, I sense the NXT diehards may be alienated by the main WWE brand over time.
What say you
?
I'm just happy that HHH is committed to putting NEW faces on the shows now, and that they've gone dozens of guys cycling through developmental to keep fresh faces. Bo Dallas is probably gonna bomb, but at least it's something different and he'll bomb in a totally unique and different way than other guys.
I just wish they would have jettisoned CJ Parker with the other dead weight.
LOL at the phrase NXT diehards. You meant to say wrestling nerds that will watch anything. Thats the beauty of the WWE being a monopoly. They dont have to appease the hardcore wrestling fan because y'all gonna watch anyway.
ReplyDeleteAs long as they don't fuck up Sami, it's fine.
ReplyDeleteOH,they will.
ReplyDeleteIt can't be we are watching NXT because it's a solid show with some new characters and fresh booking. Nope, it's just us wrestling nerds will watch ANYTHING put in front of us.
ReplyDelete*sigh* Yeah, I know.
ReplyDelete#1 problem is that everyone has stupid names like Peter Pumkin just for WWE copyright reasons. Also, the talent seems like they all have the exact same style.
ReplyDeleteAlready did by taking his mask away
ReplyDeleteIf he was 300 pounds,he may have a chance.
ReplyDeleteHonestly I don't think Bo is gonna bomb. I see him getting massive heat.
ReplyDeletethey ordered him too.
ReplyDeletePut him with Cena,instant heat.
ReplyDeleteThe watered down sports entertainment style,although there is exceptions,I.E: Zayn,that's why he's gonna bomb(hope I'm wrong).
ReplyDeleteNeville needs to jump in the Main roster soon.
ReplyDeleteMe too, I don't see Bo being a huge main eventer but I can see him being a solid mid carder.
ReplyDeleteHe's the perfect stooge for Cena.
ReplyDeleteWas Paige a heel in Nxt? And was Emma less awful?
ReplyDeleteYes, and it's a matter of opinion.
ReplyDeleteEmma was a cute girl type thing.Paige was a badass anti-diva.
ReplyDeleteShe's atrocious now so anything better would be a positive.
ReplyDeleteThey took an annoying gimmick, and then paired it with Santino. I think sometimes that WWE hates us.
ReplyDeleteLike Westboro hates us.
ReplyDeleteNah, I think it's all just a put on. They just want the attention.
ReplyDeleteThe thing with Bo Dallas is doesn't John Cena already have that gimmick?
ReplyDeleteI don't know about that; he's really personable and expressive and great on the mic and the last two are furthered by the lack of mask/incoherent interviews.
ReplyDeleteHappy labor day!
ReplyDeleteNice, thanks for making the TNA thread Bayless. The other Thursday thread was a total sausage fest.
ReplyDeleteBayless=people power!
ReplyDelete...you think this WON'T be a sausage fest?
ReplyDeleteI am also watching TNA.
ReplyDeleteBayless=Punky Power! And that joke is going over your young head. By the way, how's college going?
ReplyDeleteWould you guys nail Dixie with in her full beard and male costume from Sacrifice?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't nail her if she dressed like a WWE Diva.
ReplyDeleteIt's possible we'll get an influx of TNA wrestling fans who happen to be pretty females.
ReplyDeleteWe can all change our avatars and names to hot women.......
ReplyDeleteAnother holiday season,I'm only coming back there on monday.I was reading a medieval text and ancient one today.Saturday,going out with my friends and sunday I may go to a Comics/anime event.
ReplyDeleteDoggy style is there for situations such as this. Although Dixie's expiration date is close to running out.
ReplyDelete...I think there is a better shot at hot women than there are TNA fans
ReplyDeletePick a card is how they play who's getting paid this week too.
ReplyDeleteI like how it's all three winners from Sacrifice asking for a title shot instead of WWE where they put Kane in there randomly.
ReplyDeleteSpud says otherwise.
ReplyDeleteYou can tug on the beard from behind, too
ReplyDeleteThat is the Internet way!
ReplyDeleteCommunist!
ReplyDeleteThe proletariat of the BoD will rise!
ReplyDeleteCool beans, I know you said you need to stay out of trouble but try to go out there, have fun and meet new people.
ReplyDeleteThis card flip is the equivalent to the Luger/Bret coin toss in terms of history.
ReplyDeleteYeah, probably.
ReplyDeleteIn recognition of Magnus' tough week, this is "Go Go Power Rangers" (acoustic)
ReplyDeleteI had a date couple of weeks but I did not scored the win.
ReplyDeletePlank>Janice.
ReplyDeleteI'm already bored
ReplyDeleteThat's the effect of watching TNA.
ReplyDeleteSo there's no way The Dudleys will ever go back to the WWE?
ReplyDeleteHad no idea Bully was such an Elton John fan.
ReplyDeleteNever say never,Warrior buried his hatched with WWE.They can do it too.
ReplyDeleteHe only likes his 80s stuff.
ReplyDeleteSomeone kill her.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize there was an issue. Devon did a "Where are they now" with Devon.
ReplyDeleteEmma was pretty good in NXT, actually. Hell, her and Paige had a couple of great matches against each other.
ReplyDeleteThey sued WWE when they left due a copyright issue,they lost and started to use the "team 3d" moniker.
ReplyDeleteTesting, testing, I'm guessing Disqus is working again?
ReplyDeleteYo keep ya finger off the switch Dunn.
ReplyDeleteDid I miss an opening promo?
ReplyDeleteMissed a card draw between Roode, Gunner, Anderson to see who will face Eric Young and a fight between Magnus/Abyss.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ missing anything on TNA
ReplyDeleteHow can they afford those tables?
ReplyDeleteyou need to make your own fun when watching TNA.
ReplyDeleteMarry,fuck,kill
ReplyDeletePaige
AJ
Lana
The choice is yours.
It's really terrible what they did with Emma. In NXT, she was a quirky, but fully capable wrestler. She had some pretty good matches and some great ones with Paige (including their match on Arrival). The crowd was behind her not just because of some silly dance but because she had fun, likeable character that they could get behind. They'd even cheer when she would struggle and then successfully do the skin-the-cat move into the ring.
ReplyDeleteNow, she's become a joke and it's just getting worse. It certainly doesn't help that her and Santino have basically been having the same match with the same people for almost two months now. Two months of Santino/Emma vs. Fandango/whatsherface or just Emma vs whatsherface. It's any wonder she or the program as a whole has fallen flat with the audience.
The one that I'm curious to see get called up is Mojo. I don't think the guy is that great but they're clearly behind him. I can't stand his silly moveset. It belongs on Doink, not a big guy who could be built as a legit threat.
I treat it like Wrestling's SNL.
ReplyDeleteAJ
ReplyDeleteAJ
Paige
M:AY
ReplyDeleteF:Paige
K:Lana
Such a tough one.
ReplyDeleteSo you're not a fan of the russia chick?
ReplyDeleteShopTNA collectors corner: 25 items, all posters, featured performers include RVD, Hulk Hogan, Tomko, Scott Steiner, Kevin Nash & Matt Morgan.
ReplyDeleteIn defense, you had a lot of tough choices. Someone had to go.
ReplyDeleteGunner=boring
ReplyDeleteRoode=lost motivation
Anderson= was fun until 2010.
Lana
ReplyDeleteAJ
Paige
At least Anderson's top is off tonight.
ReplyDeleteOh shit, Lana is the Russian chick with the fantastic legs. I mixed her up with Laya. Revised list
ReplyDeleteM:AJ
F:Lana
K:Paige
I thought he was funny in his Angle costume once.
ReplyDeleteToo tough....
ReplyDeletepaige
AJ
Lana
Unless you're Steen,Raven or Tommy Dreamer,don't use a shirt.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a remotely good Anderson/Kennedy match, although to be fair I wasn't watching wrestling when he was in WWE
ReplyDeleteIt's not like one of the choices was ODB
ReplyDeleteYeah, he became the king of the game.
ReplyDeleteAngle vs Anderson
ReplyDeleteAnderson vs Morgan.
His cage match with Angle in TNA was ****3/4
ReplyDeleteJust follow the order of the names.
ReplyDeleteFor those in Boonieville:
M: Paige
F: AJ
K: Lana (nothing against you, just more interest in the other two)
If she was on it, kill kill kill.
ReplyDeleteBully and The Jets
ReplyDeleteLess dude,less.It was ****.
ReplyDeleteM: Paige
ReplyDeleteF: Lana
K: AJ
I'm pretty sure I haven't seen that, I feel like I'd remember it.
ReplyDeleteNo way, it was definitely above four stars.
ReplyDeletePaige is so yummy!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GsMtDGMiO8
ReplyDeleteWhat a ripoff! Non of these guys are on the roster anymore!
ReplyDeleteI'm never going to make it until 11pm
ReplyDeleteHe was doing a good job 2010-2011 until he joined immortal.
ReplyDeleteGeorge Lucas: I'm sorry, about Howard the Duck.
ReplyDeleteWho's that dude?
ReplyDeleteLol!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you can find a gun and end the misery.
ReplyDeleteAll I remember was that suicide flip off the top of the cage.
ReplyDeleteWeak!
ReplyDeleteVintage Angle.
ReplyDeleteWas wondering that myself.
ReplyDeleteand Angle stomping on Anderson's nuts while walking out
ReplyDeleteWho the hell would have ever bought a Tyson Tomko poster?
ReplyDeleteHe's just getting old and losing stamina. It happens to most men.
ReplyDeleteI'll give it a look later, I doubt that one great match (against someone who can get *** out of a cushion) will change my opinion of Anderson any though.
ReplyDeleteIt's where he debut his leap of death.
ReplyDeleteI just spent 130 minutes on the elliptical set on 16!
ReplyDeleteWait til you get old.
ReplyDeleteI already have a old man's soul.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Anderson's been pretty much an average wrestler.
ReplyDeleteReally? Did you murder him and take it?
ReplyDelete"Thats the beauty of the WWE being a monopoly. They dont have to appease the hardcore wrestling fan because y'all gonna watch anyway."
ReplyDeleteBingo
Howard the duck is the best thing Lucas ever put his name to.
ReplyDeleteChristian?
ReplyDeleteBut Karl Anderson in the other hand.
ReplyDeleteWho orders breakfast at Taco fucking Bell? Seriously? You should be forced to do ten pushups to prove you are healthy enough to eat fucking breakfast at taco fucking fuck bell!
ReplyDeleteMACHINE GUN!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat doesn't mean anything. I was the same way but when I was a freshman in high school I was either working til 2 am or drinking til 2 am and still able to wake up six hours later. If I do the latter I'm useless the next day.
ReplyDeleteNo,I act crusty and morose.
ReplyDelete:Machine Gun pose with the gun sound playing:
ReplyDeleteI'll stick with my greek yogurt, fruit, and oats in a blender instead of spending $ on a diarrhea producer.
ReplyDelete10 pushups is pretty fucking easy...
ReplyDeleteUnderrated!
ReplyDeleteThat's good you are finding ways to release that energy.
ReplyDeleteThat's fucking awesome. I try and do it 70 minutes a day. I can't run anymore before my knees are shit.
ReplyDeleteNot to me, sadly....
ReplyDeleteBrutus Magnus will return.
ReplyDeleteI bet >50% of Taco Bell customers would struggle with that.
ReplyDelete(Does not eat Taco Bell.)
Guns,guns,guguguguns!
ReplyDeleteAll these bearded dudes are starting to look the same. I thought this guy was Gunner at first glance.
ReplyDeleteYou have a condition though right?
ReplyDeleteLooks EXACTLY like Gunner.
ReplyDeleteThis is very spot on. I used to be able to stay up 40+ hours going to class, partying and working. I wouldn't even want to try that today, I think I would die.
ReplyDeleteI still have no clue who that guy with Magnus was.
ReplyDeleteJust realised that NJPW themes sound like a figthing game soundtrack or Anime.
ReplyDeleteWell, all 3 of those are in Japan.
ReplyDeleteSame, that's why I do elliptical instead of running... I had been doing 75 or so, but this week I decided to do 2 full hours every day... trying to get my BMI really low because we have a wellness program at work that has some nice bonuses and one of the things they check is (the bullshit statistic) of BMI so even if you are muscular and in great shape your BMI will be higher.
ReplyDeleteBram
ReplyDeleteVarsity Club is back!
ReplyDeleteNakamura's theme is probably the best in wrestling ATM.
ReplyDeleteFIghting games=awesome
ReplyDeleteAnime-dropped quality.
You gotta love Spud.
ReplyDeleteI would guarantee the people going to taco bell for breakfast can't do it. At least the majority.
ReplyDeleteYou should see Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood or Durarara!
ReplyDeleteI can do 25.
ReplyDeleteDumb high school/college kids don't count btw. I'm talking adults.
ReplyDeleteThis is embarrassingly bad...
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying him and EC3 more each week.
ReplyDeleteIf I pushed it I could probably bang out 100... I could do 60 without breaking a sweat.
ReplyDeleteOnly watched FMA first series.You should check Getbacker,nice buddy cop,adventure anime.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't mind me asking what condition (I think you've answered that before actually)? Do you have an 11 inch penis that makes it impossible to do pushups?
ReplyDeleteAlright,EC3 needs to go over.
ReplyDeleteWhat adult would eat Taco Bell for breakfast? Or at all, really?
ReplyDeleteYou're mean tonight
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me, I still need to check out this Attack on Titan that all the kids seem to love.
ReplyDeleteImpressive.
ReplyDeleteYou do?
ReplyDeleteAnyone ever watch Dragon Ball Z? If I wanted to start watching it, where would I start? Dragon Ball? GT? Z?
ReplyDeleteNothing will surpass the quality of Fist of the north star.
ReplyDeleteHe's great.
ReplyDeleteEC3 and Spud are a great pair. They're like Meanie and Stevie Richards
ReplyDeleteNot in the romantic way.
ReplyDeleteAvoid GT at all costs!
ReplyDeleteI watched them in order. DB, then DBZ, then GT. But feel free to skip GT
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was asking. Apparently they are out there.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone here goes to a gym?
ReplyDeleteI literally have no idea what is happening on the show
ReplyDelete6 days a week
ReplyDeleteTNA.
ReplyDeleteEveryday.
ReplyDeleteYou're already dead.
ReplyDelete1. Yeah, it was a heart condition.
ReplyDelete2. I just have 2 very skinny arms, plus a slur of other problems.
4-5 days a week,lost 15 KG,now regaining in mass slowly
ReplyDelete4 days a week.
ReplyDeleteUh yeah I know, I'm just saying that's how well it holds my attention
ReplyDeleteHow much is 15 KG in real people numbers?
ReplyDeleteNo, walk every few days at parks and such.
ReplyDeleteMe neither, I look up every once in a while but my attention is between this thread and something else.
ReplyDeleteWho is so far you're wrestler of the year?
ReplyDeleteTomohiro Ishii,in a perfect world he leaves CHAOS wins the G1 and dethrones Okada.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po77bJk1DdI
ReplyDeleteThe guy sucking your dick?
ReplyDelete15 x 2.2 = 33 lbs
ReplyDeleteYeah I forgot.
ReplyDeleteWow. Good work
ReplyDeleteAh tie between Bray Wyatt, Bryan, Cesaro, and Barrett.
ReplyDeleteNow on the quest for a girl.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to the other one?
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I've got some good news,Barrett is gonna win sunday.
ReplyDeleteThat's good you take walks in the park but to enhance your experience. Step 1. Get a puppy, Step 2. Take puppy with you for walks, Step 3. Women"
ReplyDeleteThat is very good news indeed.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying,but I think I'm gonna be friendzoned.
ReplyDeleteGoto or Ishii or even Naito
ReplyDeleteCrazy Steve & The Freak! 750,000 buys!
