Makes sense he would want to use her with both having served in the Marines.

Actually that might be the best thing they could do with her at this point. Just something completely different than shes ever done to wash the stink of her last run off her

Although I really really hope they don't use Lacey Evans, it would also kinda make sense in that she fits this distinctly southern vibe they are going with like Uncle Howdy.

Mr. Nerfect 10-25-2022 02:48 PM

I don’t see the point in putting anyone with Bray Wyatt. It’s just going to sink more careers. Have him do his own self-contained thing off on his own somewhere. Has there even been any confirmation of him putting together a faction, or is this just dirt sheer speculation?

Re Lacey Evans: Stick to realism as close as possible. She’s a former marine who cheats to win matches. It’s not a stretch to think of herself trying to present herself as a role model. That’s Bayley’s thing. Stick her in Damage Control.

Helmsphere 10-25-2022 04:04 PM

You will do no such thing to my Bayley. We get it, you find Bray uninteresting. But you keep the stink of Lavey Evans away from damage control.

Mr. Nerfect 10-25-2022 06:02 PM

They’re all meh.

Mr. Nerfect 10-25-2022 06:03 PM

Nah, Bayley is a good worker. I just find it hard to really care about anything she is involved with right now.

My headcanon still is that the reason for having Zeus in the movie is because Vince found out early enough in that he couldn't bring Stan in for the post movie angle and make it financially worthwhile for Stan. Because THAT would have been a story: Vince's view of Sports Entertainment vs Stan's out of control Rasslin'.

I know most people aren't going to really care about the match itself but I posted that because Shinsuke being allowed to go to noah sets an interesting precedent. I don't think that would have happened under vince.

With Nakamura working NOAH and the stuff with Karl Anderson/NJPW clearly being a work it seems WWE is now opening their own forbidden door.

Sepholio 10-30-2022 12:58 PM

I would not be shocked if Hikuleo attacks Karl at Crown Jewel honestly. I don't think they've given Hikuleo a replacement match at this point so it's not like he's doing anything for NJPW that night that would prevent him from showing up at CJ now.

Sepholio 10-30-2022 01:08 PM

For the record though, Vince let Kenta work NOAH while he was under contract a few years ago, so this isn't entirely unprecedented or something Vince wouldn't let happen.

For the record though, Vince let Kenta work NOAH while he was under contract a few years ago, so this isn't entirely unprecedented or something Vince wouldn't let happen.

True, but KENTA was about one of the most irrelevant people on the roster at the time, unlike shinsuke who is firmly an upper midcard talent. Additionaly, there was more going on there than just allowing kenta to work rhe show. It was part of bigger plans to work with noah and potentially turn it into an nxt japan

Sepholio 10-30-2022 01:45 PM

I'll agree that Kenta was pretty irrelevant, but I dunno what you've been watching if you think Shinsuke is relevant.

His IC title reign was the worst ever. They didn't even have him on PPVs and he defended it like, what, 3 times maybe on TV? It was a joke. And until Friday night when he was Hit Rows mystery partner he had spent the last few months in NXT.

Still more relevant than kenta was.

Kenta in wwe was like, if 8 tracks were a wrestler.

Holy shit, I hope they try to pass Dexter Lumis as The Miz’s son and Miz is like “…I’m 3 years older than you.”

It’s established Miz has tiny balls and as such he can’t produce. Dexter is the biological father of Mayrse’s kids. And somehow Hornswoggle is involved.

I’m not even sure Zayn holds the belt for that long. I can see Knoxville screwing him out of it. I can see Cesaro getting a little run with it, maybe defending it against Sheamus at Mania.

Conversely, in Japan Nakamura’s longest IC Title reign was 313 days and it shared his most defenses in a single reign with 8. He once held the belt for 224 days and defended it 3 times.

Perspective is important. Maybe the average fan sees Nakamura being featured pretty constantly on television and is counting the times he doesn’t defend the belt and thinking “This is damn bullshit!” before throwing their beer can at the TV and swearing off wrestling forever. But maybe some are looking at him being presented in a good light (most of the time anyway) and are getting the impression that he must be a pretty good wrestler.

Nakamura won the IC Title when he was King Nakamura — the very concept of which meant he beat the King of the Ring for their crown. Is it a silly gimmick? Yes. But he has been featured and made to look good while being champion.

The internet is going to whinge about how nothing matters anymore like Nakamura going through Corbin, Moss, Mahal and Holland every week is some magic recipe to make people care. It’s people on the internet thinking their preference is what other people want to see.


Sepholio 10-30-2022 06:23 PM

Oh man a bunch of Noid novellas explaining it all. How could I ever have been so wrong?

I take it back, Nakamura is the most protected/well used man in all of sports entertainment. Can't believe I forgot the awesome boogs team and their amazing tag team title run after destroying the Usos. And while he may not have gotten that IC title reign, Cesaro got to be the super awesome RoH (totally not dead company) champion for a month. I apologize for my transgressions. Please forgive me XL.

Ah yes, the dramatic hyperbole to try and drown out the point. Nakamura has been treated relatively well by the company. He’s no doubt on good money and has had a fairly protected spot.

Mr. Nerfect 10-31-2022 03:49 AM

If I were New Japan, I would do a tournament for a new NEVER Openweight Champion. Hiroshi Tanahashi wins. He can beat Hikuleo somewhere in the tournament. Come Wrestle Kingdom, Karl Anderson has shown up and is looking for the belt he never lost. At the same time, Hikuleo has been trying to prove he can beat Tanahashi. WK is a three-way for the belt. Not too overpowering, but something with story.

Tanahashi retains the belt. A Raw soon after he has a moment with AJ Styles. Tanahashi vs. Styles for the NEVER Openweight Championship at Elimination Chamber. Tanahashi wins the battle of the best hair, and defends his belt against the former Bullet Club leader in the Saudi show his underling used to disrespect it.

It would be very fun/funny/cute/cool if big time wrestle-mark Tony got the right to a bunch of "legend" like Tom Magee, The Mulky's, Double A and the Horsmen etc... to feature as buyable legends for the video game.

Jordan 11-01-2022 09:31 AM

Let's also acknowledge Gerwitz is now consulting for WWE and has just put out an interview that could be considered a tease for The Rock at Mania this year. They do work together on Young Rock you know, so his opinion should have some value.

WWE is really building momentum for the first time (creatively) in YEARS. For me it's still too much to watch, to sit for three hours to enjoy Raw is really impossible. Smackdown is great in highlights but I can't sit through the time required to really invest.

But still, we feel the momentum and I would suppose that a lot of kid fans do watch 5+ hours of WWE weekly no problem.

I think WWE's momentum is going to build up to the point of securing the Rock in the main event of Mania and will also be some kind of huge co-promotion/sponorship with the XFL, to help get that brand's name out there again in a massive way on Peacock with all their subs that will view Mania.
