    I take it you're happy for him :p

    Everytime I post on this thread the same old boring Happiness reply comes back. My comments on this thread are nothing personal to Sheamus I just believe that better talent is currently available and that the product cannot afford to get any worse than it is. They have had many wrestlers who have tried to become tv stars but with no joy that is why the company still has so many old guys still having to hold the product together. Its also the reason why the product is so poor as we keep on arriving at the same feuds over and over again. Legitimate stars like MVP , Benjamin, Morrison and Miz is were the company should be channeling their energy and turn these guys into top stars. There seems to be a sense of panic about FCW when they're not even using the mid card correctly. I know of at least 10 wrestlers in other promotions that could help turn the product around. And please before any other replies I know he's Irish.

    I think that was his point. That if you can't have a good match with Finlay, with all his experience, that it exposes you as a weak wrestler.

    But sure, if you can't have a good match with Finlay, you don't deserve to be there in the 1st place. I would highly doubt he would have a bad match with Finlay to be fair!!

    Who? If they have the ability to help turn the product around, why havn't WWE signed them? I'm sure with a lot of the guys you're thinking of, there's quite a reasonable argument for WWE not signing them! Either that or they just don't want to go there (e.g. Aj Styles, Danielson, Robert Roode)

    Why wouldn't WWE sign Robert Roode, I'm sure Roode would love to go to WWE if he was used correctly and not made a show of. Petey Williams could put on some potentially great matches eg him vs Rey Mysterio.
    Davey Richards, Kenta all these guys could help to turn it around instead of watching the same old stuff

    Davey Richards versus Kenta for the WWE title would be AwEsOmE~!~!~!

    I hope SOS can carve out a reliable niche for himself in VinceLand, I really do.

    Apparently WWE were interested in Roode when his contract was expiring, however he chose to re-sign with TNA instead.

    I don't think Petey Williams would fit the WWE mould to be honest, his style is nothing like the WWE style - I know that guys like Mysterio and Evan Bourne don't exactly work WWE style either, but they seem to be the exception rather than the rule.

    Problem with Davey Richards for WWE would be his height - again, I know guys like Guerrero and Benoit did well in WWE but they were exceptional talents. Havn't seen enough of Kenta to comment.

    I'm not saying that any of the above is right when it comes to building a wrestling roster. But you have to look at it from WWEs perspective, which factors in marketability to kids, merchandise sales etc.

    Moreover, Benoit and Eddie had to drug themselves to death to succeed in WWE. Would/should Richards etc. make that whopper sacrifice?

    Looks like the SOS match "taped for Superstars" was actually the Smackdown dark match this week, that's some of that "accurate" dirt sheet reporting that DJ Gabriel & Shad Gaspard love so much! ;)

    I'm confused

    The dark match before Smackdown happened on the 19th against Jimmy Yang, while the noble match was reported on the 18th so must of been the dark match for RAW.

    He done 2 dark matches.

    One with Yang and one with Noble.

    Cheers C-B-G. I wasn't as confused* as i suggested



    *Saying I was confused was a polite way of saying I think the post I was replying to was lacking in correctness!

    Dude let's not get into semantics, I may have gotten 2 matches confused but the point is still valid as Rajah reported that SOS had a match (doesn't matter who with, this is the SOS thread not the Noble/Yang thread) taped for superstars, reported here:

    http://rajah.com/base/node/16075

    which has since been edited to feature a different match and then they reported that he was on the dark match on Smackdown, reported here:

    http://rajah.com/base/node/16084

    Admittedly I'm not the best with dates but I assumed it was the same match they'd reported as being "taped for Superstars" and that's where my original post came from. Hope that clears things up...and hey you 2, The Sarcasm Express ;) no double teaming me coz when the hot tag comes....:D :D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,582 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    No sign of him on Superstars anyways. Have to wait a bit longer.

    That's a SHAME I was REALLY looking forward to watching Superstars and checking out Sheamus, Gremice , Davis , John Virgo ,Jim Davidson, George Best or whatever they're calling him now. Will the Hot Tag come from the firey red hand FELLA

    You have done a good job of explaining why you made the posts. For clarification and to show I never intended to gang up on you or say your post was wrong I'll say why I responded.

    When the original suggestion of a superstars debut was made I said it sounded like a dark match. It turned out the rajah site was wrong. When you cleared this up for us, the post you made looked odd. I didn't want anyone else picking it up wrong so I queried it to allow you tidy it up yourself (If required).

    C-B-G got in first. If the two posts afterwards came across as sarcastic I am sorry, it wasn't my intention.

    Well in fairness to me i was sceptical to start with, I said it sounded like a dark match. When I checked it out I found a differant story on other websites that night.

    I wish the flipping site was right then he would be on tv and we would have an idea if he has any chance or not.

    Punctuation dot com! :D:D:D

    Oh and basically he's slagging me coz I trained and wrestled with SOS! Gravestone is as Taz(z) would say "one freaky cat" :D

    Oh and I have no desire to wrestle full-time at this juncture and am under no illusion about my ability to make it to WWE. SOS is the only guy from the Irish scene who's made it to WWE and there's a reason why.

    You can post anything you want.

    If its off the wall, the mods will deal with it.

    Can you please try and use some punctuation? The posts you have made lately are very hard to read.

    The only way they could be worse is if you leftnospacesatall
