Ziggy Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 On 12/29/2022 at 10:22 AM, Mario said: Dave thinks Lee’s ceiling is lower than you’d think. Generally skeptical that he’ll get much of a chance in WWE. Too many factors against him, including not being fluent in English. AEW was interested in him, but apparently not enough to offer him good money. Dave’s attitude is that AEW already has their guys and Lee isn’t that unique when you have Fenix, Pentagon, Bandido on the roster. I agree with Meltzer here. Outside of getting a chance to put on the lengthy matches on Dynamite and Rampage that might get people talking for a week or 2 then WWE is the better option anyway. I don't see him getting a sustained push going in. It's still dope seeing Hunter putting over someone he signed that has already has a relatively big name outside of WWE. Ricochet is finally getting featured as Strong presence on the main roster after all this time. If they want to they could match Lee up against Ricochet or Ali. Hunter could actually push the guy. Unless start hiring more known talent from the outside for NXT to hopefully draw on the road then they may as well bring him straight to the main roster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I'd certainly take Fenix and Bandido over Dragon Lee. I might even take fucking Pentagon over Lee. Actually, I'll row back on that. The taint spammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) Chavez Bros.(Angel Del Oro & Niebla Rojo) Vs. Titan & Volador Jr. for the CMLL Tag Titles from last night has been getting high praise by the usual suspects. CMLL puts it up on their YouTube channel in two weeks. So look out for that one. Chavez Bros have been red hot all of 2022, with Angel Del Oro being the main factor. He has really found his superstar presence from deep within himself.

The Natural Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Add AJ Styles' name to the injured in 2022, a broken ankle. No surgery needed but it'll be the longest he'll ever be out the ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf&Subs Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) It’s true, these two are great dance partners, and this might be the first tease of the year for a mask match between both men. You know, it might actually happen. They really seem insistent on doing it, and if CMLL builds it well enough, I think they will allow them. Soberano is very red hot, and putting him in with a talented rival in a big stakes match would be the best for him, and the company. The semi-main is ehhhhhhh… But the rest of the card is of very good quality. The segunda especially has a lot of potential. This combo of the Panthers already produced magic once. Could be another test to see if this can be a another permanent fixture on Friday’s. Edited December 31, 2022 by LoneWolf&Subs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna watch the Sin Salida card live but maybe I'll do this instead. Edited December 31, 2022 by John E. Dynamite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I was just telling Matt that I wonder how many times those two have already wrestled each other for being so young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 But the majority were on the other non-televised(Or hard to find televised cards). This will be their first since I believe Leyenda De Plata final. No belt on the line makes me think they’ll do a screwy finish. These two don’t usually do that.

John E. Dynamite Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Gonna edit this later when I can inline, but I totally forgot I had started to make a list of all the Soberano/Templario matches I could find. There were two episodes of Super Viernes that had CMLL Welterweight title matches that just straight-up don't exist on their YouTube. Oh well. Here's my backlog. 1-25-19, Lightning Match Spoiler https://youtu.be/21Z04M-Vn2A?t=4139 6-13-19, Lucha Pittsburgh Spoiler https://www.facebook.com/WrestleRex412/videos/free-match-wrestlerex-templario-vs-soberano-jr-61319/399864123960935/ 9-1-19, Warrior Wrestling from Chicago Spoiler https://youtu.be/I-oXvvUvrF4?t=49 10-4-2019 Spoiler https://youtu.be/e6mPew0s3wE?t=2996 1-31-2020, Lightning Match Spoiler https://youtu.be/QICsRvQSw54?t=3807 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Sam was going to bring them in for a Lucha show in Pitt at one point I was going to help with, but I believe it got canceled by lockdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
