I've gone out of my way to watch the last three episodes of NXT 2.0, not live but on demand on Peacock. I really wanted to give them another shot because the quality of talent they have while new is very intriguing to me. Lot's of big young guys that are quite athletic.

Some really good characters like Imperium and Bron, some with characters I don't care for but that connect well with the NXT audience. However there is so much bad writing and "scene work" going on it makes you confused as to what you're watching.

I remember sometimes people would say WWF was like a "soap opera for men", well with that in mind I'd say NXT is like "a soap opera for kids". It's really juvenile and you can tell the audience is way too comfortable there. They know they are a valuable part of the show and it looks odd. I think NXT would look really good if they toured to unique venues for example something like "Mall of America or WCW's Panama spot". I think they should tour with efficiency in mind, not renting out big time venues, but make it unique. Not saying they should do this exactly but once NJPW did an outdoor show in some giant parking lot outside of a factory and the look of the show was so cool and unique. It rained too so it looked totally cool.

Anyway, Bron Breakker is awesome and should be a top 3 guys on the roster when he hits his heights. I don't think you can say someone is "destined to be the guy", you can tell he's got a chance though.

My guess for the WrestleMania card:

Brock/Roman/Lashley
Charlotte v Ronda
Becky v Bianca
Miz/Paul v Rey/Dom
Drew v Corbin
Orton v Riddle
AJ v Edge
Theory v Priest
KO v Austin
Zayn v Knoxville
Sasha/Bayley v Zelina/Carmella
New Day/Usos/Profits
Rhodes v Rollins
Battle Royals

This could have been the possible WrestleMania card:

* Roman vs. Brock
* Charlotte vs. Ronda
* Becky vs. Bianca
* AJ vs. HBK
* Drew & Taker vs. Corbin & Moss
* Edge vs. Theory
* RKBro vs. Seth & KO
* Seth vs. Bobby Lashley (Seth wrestles both nights)
* Kofi vs. Big E
* Damian Priest vs. Finn Balor
* Cody vs. Miz
* Cesaro vs. Sheamus
* Zayn vs. Knoxville
* The Usos vs. Nakamura & Boogs
* Booker T, Profits, Mysterios vs. Angle, Alpha & Dirty Dawgs
* Sasha vs. Bayley
* Zelina & Carmella vs. Rhea & Lita
* Sonya, Shayna, Shotzi & Nattie vs. Naomi, Aliyah, Xia Li & Asuka
* Liv Morgan vs. Alexa Bliss
* Battle Royals

Pretty epic fucking Mania.

If HBK, Taker, Booker & Angle aren’t wrestling, you can just drop Book and Angle from the tag, have Bron Breakker be Drew’s partner, and do Styles vs. Balor with Priest defending the US Title against Lashley.

Morgan/Bliss, the women’s Battle Royal and one of the women’s tags would be Kickoff. Maybe Priest and Balor too, but not Priest and Lashley.

* Horrible music for Keith Lee.

* AEW fans are not people you want to share a train cab with.

* Keith Lee pulls faces like a child who didn’t successfully bake the cookies, but mom said she was proud of him for trying.

* Justin Roberts is way too labored.

* Horrible music for Keith Lee.

* Crowd chanting something obnoxious. Makes you realize they’re all mouth-breathers and this place isn’t sold out.

* Keith Lee taking his jacket off and looking so smug about looking like total shit got a laugh out of me.

* Isiah Kassidy launched himself in that opening spot.

* JR doing his best on commentary, kind of has to pad time by saying “it feels good” as Keith Lee does his second or third of about eight kneeling poses.

* Holy shit, Lee almost got stuck under the bottom rope. :lol:

* These spots don’t even look good. The slingshot crossbody looked like real effort.

* He’s blown up.

* HATE Matt Hardy. The guy has become unbearable.

* This is fucking boring. He’s trying to do a squash match, which is the sort of shit they wanted to do with him in the WWE and he couldn’t pull off.

* Keith Lee can’t really roll out of the ring. I’m worried about his heart condition.

* Something fucking sucked with the editing when he caught Kassidy off the unnecessary dive after the unnecessary post-match attack.

* The catch of Marc Quen was cool. That’s about the only thing so far. The powerbomb onto Kassidy looked sloppy as shit though.

Verdict: Fucking awful. Keith Lee is not a star, and I don’t think this run is going to be sustainable. He looks like someone that was released from the WWE due to health issues.

I’m rushing ahead of myself and being impatient. Austin/Goldberg is always a match they can do later. It’s probably something for the Saudis. I guess Austin and Owens will be fine. Austin being back would probably be special enough on its own.

I think him and Lesnar is going to be a big match, maybe for the UK show. I can see Austin & Brock vs. Roman & Lashley being a big SummerSlam tag to set that up, since the two stadium shows are so close together.

* Edge vs. Austin Theory
* AJ Styles vs. Seth Rollins

* Carmella & Zelina vs. Sasha & Bayley
* Zayn vs. Knoxville
* SmackDown Tag Team Turmoil
* Cesaro vs. Sheamus

I haven’t been this pumped for a WrestleMania in years. Brock vs. Roman is going to be great. They haven’t done the two belts thing at Mania before, and this has been percolating for a long time. This was the match that was supposed to define the era. Roman Reigns is the longest reigning champion since Hulk Hogan.

Becky Lynch has not been beaten for the Raw Women’s Title since she won it 3 years ago. Bianca does very impressive things. Potentially a huge star for them. I hope they push Montez Ford as a singles guy soon. Maybe Angelo Dawkins can turn on him and become a Seth Rollins Guy? It feels like it’s been a while since we’ve seen two guys who came in as partners feud (or I can’t think of it right now).

Charlotte and Ronda will be out to prove something, I think. And they’re both big stars.

The Miz & Logan Paul vs. The Mysterios could be surprisingly good and will probably draw them a bunch of attention. Logan Paul might just be the right sort of personality for wrestling.

And if we’re getting Steve Austin? Fucking glorious. Could be a top tier WrestleMania, which I feel they haven’t delivered since 2014.

Over the past few years, there have been occasions where I've looked at a WWE card, and gotten excited for it. Then I actually watch it, and it's nowhere near as good as it looks on paper.

So wrestlemania card lookin' good? Not today, Satan.

Yeah that would be pretty epic. I'd say an Undertaker & Bad Bunny team against two others of interest might make more sense though, I'd have said AJ and Omos but obviously they aren't a team anymore. I guess they could find the right team though.

Jordan

02-21-2022 08:03 AM

Honestly at this point I could almost care less about wrestlers "devaluing their legacy" by wrestling into old age. The footage of Taker's prime or Golbergs or whoever's is there to watch, it doesn't change because they are old now and suck when they wrestle. Just them cutting promo's and walking to the ring for the match seems to be "worth it" for the majority of fans and that's probably the only thing that should matter.

Obviously spectacle is a big part of wrestling, but at some point, if the wrestling itself is bad enough, the spectacle can't make up for it.

Mr. Nerfect

02-21-2022 04:35 PM

Yeah, when you a hype a show like that it becomes the story and you’re focused on memories and such. Right now it’s WrestleMania hype season. The story of Raw is something that can be told on another legends night or a “season premiere” or something.

I mean, I don’t think it would be a bad thing for Steve Austin to return on Raw 1500, so you can easily remember something that happened on it. But people will probably remember that anyway, and with Austin being 57 you may not want to remind people of how old Raw is as well.
