RRR Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Seriously, having the authority feud with Cena and debuting their own version to prove he is a product of WWE Marketing would be tremendous. You wouldn't even have to break-up the PTPs or change Darren Young's name, just repackage him as Cena from music, attire, moves, and some merch. Have him do everything identically to Cena, but with the added bonus of Titus barking in the corner. It'd be easy, entertaining, and could given Cena some depth and something to do for a few months without having to worry about burring anyone. So of course they'd never do it. Vince Russo approves.

Web Conn Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Here's what I've read about the AJ thing http://www.ewrestlingnews.com/news/backstage-news-wwe-interested-in-signing-aj-styles-now-details-on-his-future-more Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter According to sources, WWE is warming up to the idea of trying to sign AJ Styles. As previously reported, the company didn’t show a lot of interest in Styles when he left TNA. However, with WWE planning on building NXT into a full touring brand by next year, they want to load up on talent to split between the three road tours and the company has “greatly changed its thoughts” on Styles. It is worth mentioning that Styles is under contract to NJPW and is happy there, so there’s nothing saying that this will happen, but the company is definitely more interested at this point.

Spritenaut 32 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Nothing in the shoots and what-not I've heard with AJ has given me the impression he'd give up all that much to get into WWE, and I don't see WWE overpaying to get him at this point, so....

Kevin Wilson Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Yea I am sure Styles makes good money with New Japan and the bigger US Indies, I can't imagine WWE is offering what he already makes. So unless he has the 'dream' of wrestling in WWE, I don't see that working out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gun N Roses or more appropriately Axl and Friends have performed there a few years back I know that. Its a cool looking place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Only been to Hammerstein once, for the first ECW One Night Stand. A fantastic night, but the room itself definitely helped with the aura and it seemed like one of those spots where the vibe of the room itself enhances and adds more energy to whatever is going on. It only seats 2500 but the acoustics made it one of the loudest rooms I have ever been in for wrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, this is real? Maybe I should start clapping now in hopes he only gets injuries to a few places instead of his whole body. And for crying out loud, somebody get a camera in there somehow! This must be documented for the world to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
