I really hope they pin someone while they're asleep in their hotel room, and have them waking up realising they lost the title

Several segments across Raw some weeks would be fun too, it's such a silly thing but it would actually give you something to look forward to throughout Raw

They did something like that with the hardcore title when it had the 24/7 rule. I definitely remember someone trying to pin someone who was asleep and the ref whispering the count.

Even better... it was the commentators whispering the play-by-play. Add that to a euphorically silent Gerald Briscoe celebrating and, well, it's the greatest piece of television ever seen.

Ah here thats brilliant, showing my age not knowing of that

So many silly things can be done, someone should definitely start live streaming randomly on Facebook or Twitch while going after the belt, the possibilities are endless and it shouldnt be just another belt where its im the best ill fight anyone

A good chickensh1t heel could do wonders as well

Bully Ray had a fan brought backstage by Delirious seemingly at an ROH show this past weekend. The fan had a back & forth with Delirious & Ray's girlfriend's which involved insults, gestures & spitting (by Mandy Leon).
The latest in ROH's public embarrassment & hopefully leads to a few dismissals.
Bully used the sexism excuse, of course.

5 name changes coming
And they're perfect for shortening if they make the main roster... *Insertrolleyes.jpeg

Looks like a few Irish women could be NXT UK bound if the tryouts go well this weekend.

Debbie Keitel, Valkyrie and possibly Session Moth.

I'm assuming "Rik Bugez" will be pronounced "Rick Boogies"

Session Moth's gimmick would not translate well even to the UK.

Except she got decent pops in the US at Joey Janelas events and has been pretty successful in the UK too, with Wrestle Crate even bringing out special figures for her.

Probably a name change at best..

Like most signings with WWE her name has a shred of buzz so they'll sign her & be paid to work the shows they'll ask her to work with the British promotions that'll individually die off once or if NXT UK gets some proper traction.

Aleister Black's reply to a now deleted tweet from someone at Whatculture.

SureYWouldntYa

The whatcture guy just tweeted ‘nice kick for a pu$$y’ under a tweet by Black kicking Murphy

What a dumbass, there’s only a couple decent people left at WC and he’s ruining things for them, what good outcome could his tweet have had

Black shut that down in a very measured way while hitting him with a zinger. Zelina's response (or one aspect of it) seemed petty though, in my opinion...

Wrestlers getting pissy about fans using "wrestler lingo" has always rubbed me the wrong way. Of course people can be obnoxious with it but it has been out there in the internet forever now. People are gonna use it. I don't know why some wrestlers treat it like ancient sacred text.

Couldn't resist. Even though I agree about wrestlers being overly petty. Honestly had forgotten all about Whatculture covering wrestling & kinda wish it stayed forgotten.

ThePott

I don't know baout the Session Moth thing but it looks like David Starr has launched a promotion called We The Independent or something and posted a picture with her wearing a tee so maybe she won't be trying out or signing but who knows.

EDIT- Also been a suggestion that it's some sort of union.

Big E doesn't care any more:

Is Big E wasted in his New Day role? Dude has shown he's charismatic as hell.

When he was in NXT, he was Super Over with the 5 count gimmick etc. He's proven he can talk, and can go in the ring.

the lads really do love the new day gimmick and always mention how they dont want to break up but honestly feel theres so much you could do with a new day break up and triple threat match and a heel run for big E.

they messed up the triple threat match for the shield which should have main evented mania at some stage hope they dont miss the chance on this

Agent Coulson

The New Day rake in the dollars on merchandise sales they would be foolish to give up that kind of income.

He has shown he is charismatic????

Where? When? How? Those 3 lads are not charismatic. They are annoying. Much like your session moths etc, if you met them in a boozer in town and they acted like that you would throw a guinness at them....

Thats your opinion. It's wrong of course, but you're entitled to it.

Here's the dictionary definition of charisma:

a special power that some people have naturally that makes them able to influence other people and attract their attention and admiration

All 3 members have this in spades.

beakerjoe

They are 100 percent charismatic.

You dont have to like them, but they have charisma in my opinion.

Personally i think they are all very likeable and full of energy, however i think their act is stale to a degree.

weareallmarks

charisma??

If you are a grown up then , much like bayley, to find them charismatic is very very worrying

If you don’t find them entertaining, that’s absolutely fine. Many don’t.

If you don’t think they’re charismatic, you’re just simply wrong. It’s not a matter of opinion, they’re the textbook definition of charismatic.

leggo

Like 90% of wrestlers you see in any kind of major role are vastly more charismatic than the average Joe. If you can hold an audience’s attention for a period of time, you have charisma. Now that doesn’t mean you’re necessarily entertaining or likeable or good, they’re all subjective. But yes, a guy who can get thousands of people to chant “New Day rocks” in unison on a weekly basis is definitely charismatic and it’s not really up for debate.
