MORELOCK Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Still don't get the love for Tyler Breeze. Anyone know of any great matches he had that weren't against far superior workers? 1
NikoBaltimore Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Galloway damn near killed himself to make the Hornswoggle/Torito TLC match as entertaining as possible. He deserves more love for that. On top of that, since getting released he's been a man on a mission and has been really fun to watch. Breeze has a great gimmick and has had some great matches. One that sticks out was against Zayn at one of the specials. Can't say it was due to the opponent as he did hold his own. There's a lot of potential in the guy, and I wouldn't blame anybody for picking him. But I've always had a soft spot for Drew and you can see how far he's willing to go to make a name for himself. If he loses I'm hoping it's a really close contest at least.

The Man Known as Dan Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Tyler Breeze has declared we should now alter our vote to who in fact is most pretty. The interesting thing is that might help Galloway.
OSJ Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 This one's tough. I think Tyler is one of those guys (like Luger) who can be as good as whoever he's working with, but needs a superior opponent to really shine. On the other hand, Drew's career has baffled me as he always struck me as a guy who had IT, but never seemed to be booked well enough to bring it out. The last few months, freed of silly gimmicks and allowed to grow, he's been a house afire. Next year it could go the other way, this year belongs to the Gael Force!
Technico Support Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Breeze strikes me as a bland guy with a good gimmick. Take away the gimmick and he's absolutely nothing at all. Would anyone else on the roster do any worse with the gimmick (within reason...obviously it wouldn't work with Bull Dempsey)? Funny coincidence that he was trained by Lance Storm. Remember Dancin' Lance Storm or Big Cock Lance Storm? That's what I mean. Shove a gimmick on a boring guy and the lameness still shines through. 1
scraylo187 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I was going to vote Drew but then I saw his 'voice of the voiceless' promo on TNA and just got really sad.

Even if Breeze weren't a male model, he's got Heath Slater levels of selling and jobbing and that's a high compliment.
Technico Support Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Right but that's what I mean. He's a passable worker but is that enough? I've seen some good stuff with Galloway since his comeback, including a pretty nice, fired-up performance against Strong in Evolve. I haven't seen anything comparable out of Breeze. I also don't think unrealistic gimmicks like that work in NXT. Everybody knows you're a wrestler trying to get to the big company, not a male model or a garbage man.
JCM Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I thought Breeze was excellent in the Itami matches, and clearly the better of the two.

Would anyone else on the roster do any worse with the gimmick (within reason...obviously it wouldn't work with Bull Dempsey)? I think your being way too harsh on Breeze here. Breeze has consistently been thrown into matches with great workers and looks like he belongs. The gimmick isn't great. A male model gimmick doesn't exactly scream money. The gimmick works because Breeze makes it work. I don't know who else on the roster could pull it off as well as he does. 1

I also don't think unrealistic gimmicks like that work in NXT. Everybody knows you're a wrestler trying to get to the big company, not a male model or a garbage man. But there is a historical precedent for police officers, clowns, garbage men, plumbers AND male models wrestling for said big company. 1
MORELOCK Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I think your being way too harsh on Breeze here. Breeze has consistently been thrown into matches with great workers and looks like he belongs. I'll ask again - does anyone have any examples of a good Breeze match that does not involve him working with superior workers (i.e. Zayn, Neville, Kidd, Itami)? Even one? He "looks like he belongs" because he's working with some of the best wrestlers in the world - it's their job to make him look like he belongs. Has this great work from Breeze shown up in any matches outside of the ones with the previous workers mentioned? ETA: The bar for contentious statements continues to be raised, too - Tyler fucking Breeze is better than KENTA?
SirSmUgly Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Never liked Drew Galloway except for when he would kill himself bumping like mad in some of those 3MB matches. Otherwise, I never got the hype around him and can't remember one singles match that I enjoyed that included him.

Were not counting shit he did in 2005.
DylanWaco Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 This is actually closer than I would like to admit. I dig the Breeze character, and he always works hard. If anything he feels like he is better than he should be. Galloway on the other hand feels like he is worse than he should be in some ways. Having said that he had some underrated matches in Evolve last year, the ICW return angle, and the WELC performance. If Breeze had one or two high end matches I might have voted for him, but I have give it to Drew based on what is out there.
RIPPA Posted March 11, 2015 Author Posted March 11, 2015 I actually was looking for the WeeLC match to post in the first post. I knew I should have just started with Russian Youtube http://rutube.ru/video/149d9a5bef266ce677d07d397d1a1f26/?ref=search
JonnyLaw Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I thought Breeze's matches with Mojo were as good as they possibly could be, and I hate Mojo.
goc Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I'd have voted El Torito over either of these guys based on his Hornswoggle feud, FWIW. 1

No. But in all cases, including that, they had a better year.
Hail Sabin Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 If Prince Pretty makes a comeback made he will release a 2nd music video.
DylanWaco Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 This is one of those quietly close matches that could swing at the last second and not surprise me at all. Breeze was down by 12 at one point and is now in striking distance. The Chosen One needs to watch his back.
