cool arrow Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 So what's the over/under on Devon coming back? And AJ's back to being AJ just like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 How the hell is Devon gonna lose when Wes is right there. What about Knux? I like Knux, but out of that whole group there are guys way more expendable than Devon. The "swerve" of Brooke Tessmacher being Bully's Old Lady is amusing. Can't wait for the eventual cat fight between the two Brooke's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 For what it matters (and it is wrestling, so it probably doesn't), after the match and probably after camera stopped rolling Devon was lipping stuff like "thanks for everything" "I love you guys" etc. to the crowd so he dropped character. So if nothing else I think he is taking a break, I don't think he will be right back on TV in two weeks. He got kinda emotional about it as if he really wasn't going to be around for awhile.

MGFanJay Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I'm fine with Devon retiring - he really hasn't been all that good in years, and I'm glad that emo AJ is no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuttsy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I think flipping AJ back babyface is a sign that they expect Angle will be out for a while and need a new workhorse face of the company. Although realistically if Bound for Glory is AJ vs Bubba, which seem(ed) most logical, you gotta figure they would've shot the angle in September so realistically they only turned him a month or so early. Anything that gets Brooke Adams on TV more is an absolute good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I really miss the Reverend Devon. Styles flipping so soon is good, it makes up for Kurt's absence and I really hated emo Styles. It wasn't working as their crow Sting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't working as their crow Sting. I'm gonna miss that "Ain't No Grave" knockoff theme he had. Emo Styles had a load of potential, but in typical TNA fashion they had no clue what they wanted to do. They wanted him to be Crow Sting so of course they had him wrestling matches with in a couple of weeks and he ends up losing his first match to boot.

SovietShooter Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 If WWE title matches are "championship opportunities", shouldn't regular ol' matches just be "opportunities"? Thus they should be "opportunity producers". Y'all gotta think outside the box! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Actually, if WWE is "sports entertainment" and not wrestling, the word "match" probably shouldn't be applicable in the first place. Which is presumably why Cole always calls them "matchups." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SovietShooter Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I prefer "contest." Call them Contest Coordinators! "Contest" implies it is legitimate. WWE should just skip the bullshit and call them Choreographers. On the indies the official title is "Guy Helping Out In the Back". Old school term is "foreman".

Petey Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 I don't know really where else to post this but I am really glad Brooke Hogan is gone. Now if only the other Hogan would/could officially disappear from TNA. Wouldn't be surprised if he's gone soon. He hasn't been on the last two weeks and the WON said Brooke was fired. Between that and being behind on pay, writing might be on the wall for the end of Hogan in TNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In UPW, it was "Floor director" and he was at Gorilla next to the lighting tech (which was usually me) . And unless he was booked elsewhere, it was usually Chris Daniels.

Spontaneous Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 What point is there for Hogan and Sting to stay in TNA? Lighter schedule is the only thing I can really think of. Its not like they'd go to WWE without some creative control. Of course WWE has to want them... Hopefully this has spared us Bully Ray/Hogan down the line. Because Hogan might of crippled himself if that happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
