The Z Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Well, the news about Damo, Noam Dar and Moose joining NXT was in the Observer apparently, only the detail about Damo declining the G1 is from rovert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Damo and Moose. After the Cruiserweight Classic, we're having The Hoss Classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Remember 4 years ago, when TNA would get a guy like Scorpio Sky and have him get in the ring and have great matches with great opponents, then WWE would get him and have him act in a skit and never acknowledge he was a wrestler at all? Now TNA uses Damo on TV twice, to put over a distinctly lame-duck incarnation of Eric Young, then WWE signs him and puts him in NXT, to have great matches with great opponents.

Along the same line as having Tajiri and Kendrick in the CWC, who would they bring back for THC? And yeah, I'm aware one of you will bring up RVD, London or a re-entered Kendrick.

Go2Sleep Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I suppose they could bring back Big Ryck. I'd also suggest Brian Cage, although he might not be in the spirit of the tournament. He's far too agile to be a true hoss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Apparently they are do shoot weigh-ins for the tourny. WWE's Snapchat just showed Cedric Alexander and Mascara Dorada weighing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 There have been tweets the last few days about Kota Ibushi being panicked because he was 4 lbs over the weight limit Granted those were from mark Japanese sites But it is still fun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I hope this full speech HHH is giving all the guys ends up on Youtube or something But I have a feeling it is just going be via their Snap Chat And Dorada's mask totally adds weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I'm gonna be furious, if Ibushi has to drop out of the tournament, because he missed the weight limit by 4 lbs. I've always been a fan of promotions who took wrestling a bit more serious, but I don't give a shit how much someone weighs. If they told me Chris Hero was under 205 lbs I would be willing to suspend my disbelief. EDIT: They actually showed Ibushi's weigh-in on Facebook and he only weighed 189lbs. So I guess he was just bullshitting on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 It would be hilarious if they had a rigged scale for the weigh-ins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Of course they could still completely kayfabe the whole thing. They don't even show the scale during the weigh-in, they only show the guy reading off the scale and we have to trust him. But I don't think so. They even have a bunch of guys there, who aren't even on the list of 32 competitors, so I guess those are replacements in case someone fails.

RIPPA Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 It's also possible they have injury replacements - like for example Rich Swann doesn't get cleared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Was it the same scale the Hollys used to carry to the ring? Will one of the competitors be billed as a superheavycruiserwight? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two names I've heard are in Orlando are Michael Nakazawa and Prince Mustafa Ali. Haven't heard that is why they're there specifically, but it seems likely. Also, Kota weighed in at 189 lbs...

Lazlo Woodbine Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I think I read somewhere that Nakazawa was there as Ibushi's translator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 The WWE announced that the CWC will be "hosted" by Daniel Bryan and Mauro Ranallo So I am assuming they are the ones calling the matches but who the fuck knows with the WWE nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
