Wrestling - Part 3

coyneeee said:
It all stems from the change of business model of NXT - It's pretty much the equivalent of the Papa John's trophy in football - Full of young blood complimented by a few veterans, if you don't fit in either category and you the main roster is too stacked you're pretty much out with no fault of your own.

Despite the reservations the reboot has been successful so far, but it does suck for the people who are neither a young recruit, a vet, or involved in the main roster.

I saw Adam Wilbourne get so angry about it all, it's just business at the end of the day. The company is producing too much tv and don't have the stars to fill it. Poor Big E has been on both shows consistently for a few weeks now. It's the same match types with the same opponents week in and week out. Reigns is the only fresh thing on the menu.

and they can fuck off for getting rid of Eva :lol:

Triple H said it himself he wanted Keith Lee to stay on NXT, but unfortunately he's paid the price for the mistake. Could argue the same for Kross. But the rest there was no room for em. Balor was moved to the main show to accommodate, despite the fact he's fared alot better on NXT.

I read on a Wrestling forum that they have undone Triple H's work for the past half a dozen years. 🤔

They have NXT is nothing like it was 3 years ago before it came to tv, when it came to tv it was ok but watered down massively from the network days, they used it as a sacrificial lamb against AEW to try ruin a new upstart company and failed and this shite they are doing at the minute solidifys the fact they’ve ruined or done away with what HHH has done.

nXt was its own animal and producing great stuff but it was operating at a loss?!

WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon reportedly pulled Karrion Kross from TV because he didn’t get over.

I wonder why 🤔

Tbf. HHH is still involved in NXT, he's Head of Recruitment nowadays, which was originally William Regal's role - I don't know what he's doing nowadays, more likely with the WWE developmental team.

Only thing what changed behind the scenes was the director role

It may have been making a loss but it was there so HHH could develop characters for raw and smackdown the problem is wwe misused the majority who came up who were stars on nxt, Black, Andrade, Balor, Lee, Zayn, Steen, Dax and Cash, Windham, Bo, Kross
imagine if Cole had rocked up or Walter they’d somehow of ruined them as well not to mention many others, they (Vince and Bruce) Killed nxt the second they put it up against AEW, they got battered then blamed HHH for AEW beating them in the Wednesday night wars (god I hate that phrase 😂)
Now it’s back to being developmental which is fine but it shouldn’t be on the tv as they are all green as fuck, who’s left from HHH’s vision? Kyle o reily he’ll be gone in a month, Gargano, his contract is up in January, Ciampa guarantee when he loses that belt he’s gone, io shirai why she isn’t on the main roster and a champion is beyond me she’s easily one of the best womens wrestlers going.
And like you said about Kross it’s pretty obvious yet Vince is oblivious to the fact of why he couldn’t get over after having him lose in 2 mins on his debut against Jeff hardy who was chasing around the 24/7 title a week prior 😂😂😂😂 the company is a shambles I don’t care how much money they make.
There are better wrestling products out there to watch than Vince and Bruce’s comedy 3 hour spectacular and Roman reigns show on Friday.

Matt Hardy been getting pelters on Twitter all week long for his boring feuds and made worse for not putting over OC.

They've got a point though. WWE are really bad for this but just shows it happens everywhere.

I don’t care for it but it’s clear it’s been made for Iishi and Okada to turn up from New Japan so I’ll take it 😂
On another note plenty great wrestling tonight NJPW have Okada v Murphy (formerly buddy), moose v juice and Jay white v Iishi, then you’ve got full gear which is absolutely stacked, Omega v Hangman which will end a two year storyline.
I’m gonna pop if they have hangman kick out of the one winged angel 😂

Because wrestling fans will find anything to moan about ;) especially when they don't get what they want!. AEW is as close to flawless as you can get man :lol:
 
Gan on sting lad 😂, that match was quality, hopefully people can shut up about MJF not being up to it as a wrestler and only good on the mic
