Wrestling - Part 3

Can't argue much with that. Love Kross tbf but he could do with more than a couple of minutes backstage every week. I think they are reluctantly building something with him due to the crowd reaction but I also have a feeling they'll bury him a bit.

I hate Sami Zayn too he's such a boring generic baby face who looks terrible

I spoke to a bloke who knew Kross (who has now passed away unfortunately) quite often and from him he told me they weren't planning on doing much with him after WM last year.

I guess that plan has lasted if the crowd likes it or not. He has done really well getting himself over as much as he has done. Legit tough bloke n'all. I dunno if his style translates because he's a big fella. He can't sell to who've they've put him against, he's a heel. Logic would be to turn him face, they haven't. Feel bad for the bloke because everything he tries goes on deaf ears

He's getting pops that most of the current babyfaces would be envious of, but I think they''ve made their minds up on him and they'll be stubborn. I expect he'll get this programme with Zayn, not go over, and that'll be that.

They don't like wrestlers getting over organically and seem unwilling to deviate from their plans unless totally necessary.

Just when you think Maven is going abit stale on youtube, he drops this. All the former wrestlers doing podcasts and he is releasing powerful stuff like this. Incredible

The absolute state of this, wtf!? There’s a Jabba the Hutt bird and the rest of them look like homeless people, wtf happened to TV stars!? Men want to be them, women want to be with them. Bring Vince back

Awful, but he's still alive - albeit not exactly kicking.

Looks like the accountant bloke from the US version of The Office.

As long as he's staying retired. He looked like he was walking really badly on the way to the ring in that match. Gunther needs a medal the size of a bin lid for going 15 mins with him and not looking terrible. Some ego on the bloke

I heard the problem with Goldberg is that he didn't really get wrestling and had voices in his ear in wcw (you know how poisonous that company was politically). He didn't have anyone to guide him as he was so raw..look at how Kurt angle and block lesnar got an education in the business.. can't deny Goldberg was the only megastar they created during the Monday night wars (you could add DDP) but he never seemed to care about improving and seems to dismiss anytime he's hurt someone. 👀.

Dunno if you watch the Stevie Richards podcast but they made an excellent point. If you are criticising your last 3 matches, the problem isnt the wwe, its you 🤣

Goldberg was pushed in WCW straight away from training in the power plant. There wasn't really any of the set up in WCW like their was in WWF att. So yeah, he wasn't really guided at all. I think DDP took an interest in him and helped him quite a bit but nothing in way of anyone actually helping him in the long run.
