Random Wrasslin' thoughts.....

gimmick

So this is a thread for your musings which do not deserve an entire thread of its own.

For example

I just watched Card Subject To Change. Horrific to think that since its been made the following has happened -

Kamala has become an amputee

Sensational Sherrie, Paul Bearer and Trent Acid are dead

Had Kevin Sullivan and Nancy stayed together one of Wrestlings darkest moments would be completely different or never would have happened.

Lacey Von Erich almost became a diva. She is also crazy hot. Pure nom.

I also mused that even while Sherri was a dispicable heel while she was on tv she may well have been my first celeb crush.

All this in one lazy evening.

Just looking at the Bálor Club t-shirts I started thinking.

Which wrestlers from NXT and the main roster would suit Bálor as members of the Bálor Club should creative decide to go with it.

Or with what looks like the starts of a work relationship with NJPW would the WWE bring in the Bullet Club for a run with Bálor.

Or with talks of AJ maybe doing a Samoa Joe with NXT would the WWE & NJPW be up for a battle for control of the Bullet Club between AJ & Bálor.

Or a Bálor Club vs Bullet Club war.

If they are truly that openminded now that would be brilliant. HHH deserves a lot of credit. The element of surprise has been so sadly missing in recent years. They are so deprived of major stars that guys like AJ and Bullet Club showing up on Raw would get a huge reaction (if it was in the right arena)

It seems like the majority of RAW audiences are now internet fans. A big reception on tv is what its all about.

Vince McMahon is one of the most charismatic people in the history of wrestling and a brilliant businessman but he f*cking sucks at booking/writing shows in 2015.

So many wrestlers would be way more over if he hasn't buried them

Strowman has a great look.

Whoever decided New Jack's music should play throughout his matches should be shot. It's incredibly annoying watching, I usually end up skipping them on the network.

Didn't he come up with that idea himself?

Johnny, Kenny, and Mikey reunited in CHIKARA last year:

Is the guy with the X over his face Christian?
Doing that gimmick Vince suggested.

I'd have no problem with Sting and The Dudley Boyz winning the titles.

Braun Strowman is someone Bobby Heenan would have managed in the 80's and built for 6 months to a year as a monster then fed to Hogan.

A Brad Maddox Guy

They should drop Strowman from his name & just call him Braun.

Agent Coulson

Wrestling needs more managers with stables of wrestlers.

One Top Guy, One Tag Team , One Mid Card Guy and One Jobber kind of Stables.

Jim Cornette, Bobby Heenan, Mr Fuji, Jimmy Hart were always great at getting one top guy and group lower midcard guys over.

LeeJM

How about this then :

Maddox Inc.
Manager : Brad Maddox
Top Guy : Randy Orton
Mid Card Guy : Cesaro
Tag Team : Blake & Murphy
Jobber : Adam Rose/Leo Kruger

Stereomaniac

That would be a dream of a stable. I saw Adam Rose on Superstars this week, coming out to no music and cutting a promo on the Universe.

I still can't fathom how David Otunga is still employed.

As far as I know he's a lawyer for them in some capacity and he's a good ambassador to have (also he'd have ties to showbiz with the wife)

Angron

Well, fiance, they aren't actually married. But on the showbiz ties thing, for that to really be a thing surely he'd be doing something, not just hosting a show a lot of people wont watch where he just wears stupidly small shirts and vests.

Agent Coulson

David Otunga as a manager I could get behind that.

Stereomaniac

I really enjoy him on the Pre-Show every week. I can't think of any reason not to watch it like.

I really hope that footage of Vince in the WBF isn't real ha ha.

That Gary Strydom gif will always be my all time fav

Stereomaniac

Just did a Google of Gary Strydom there, it's all coming back to me. You've got to want it - ICOPRO!

I had a wrestling related dream last night (weird I know) and the commentators mentioned that Wyatt Family member Erick Rowan will be back soon. Do you think he will/should join back with the clan? I'd like to see him and Harper back as the Reapers and take on the Dudley Boys. Could be a nice irony to it also with Bray as a kind of Joel Gertner (in ECW for the Dudleys) and Braun Strowman as the Big Dick monster. Also, you had Harper and Rowan on a great run before the injury AND they were using the 3D and calling it 'The Way'. I badly think they deserve a run with the tag titles.

Then when the Uso's get back that would inject another angle into it while keeping PTP, Lucha Dragons and New Day in the mix too and Tyson Kidd/Cesaro too if they reform... Maybe Enzo and Cass too.

Goddang, just realized they changed Brock Lesnar's opponent at the MSG show to.... The Big Show!

one of the major selling points behind a show like this for me anyway is Brock vs someone we have never seen him face before.... Big Show FFS! they literally could have picked anyone else and i'd have preferred it.

My thoughts exactly. Show is my least favourite wrestler. I'm done with him. I hope they hide in him in the tag division (obvs tucking him away on Smackdown or not on TV at all would be great!)

Literally anyone but Big Show would have been better. They should have stuck Kofi back in again sure, their match in Japan was fun for what it was

But the real question is how will lesnar pick big show up for the F5 :pac:

jaykhunter

Aww, I hoped Bo Dallas would get back on TV. Even if it's getting killed. I really like his gimmick, it's a shame he's just a lower tier wrestler. He's money!

He's a giant! No one can throw him over the top rope! suplex a giant!

Agent Coulson

The real question is will they do another collapsing ring gimmick.

Ageyev

It's probably the Vince McMahon "bigger is better" mindset which lead to Big Show getting the Lesnar match it being The Garden and all. Would have loved if Cesaro or Owens got the match.

I love it. So fresh and gives the up and comer some exposure. Plus the placid New York crowd will give him lots of encouragement.

Agent Coulson

Part of me is really looking forward to seeing Edge & Christian on the Austin Podcast tonight but another part of me feels like two middle aged truly retired guys won't be that interesting at all.
