JonnyLaw Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Edge said somewhere he doubted there would be a season 2 any time soon. They apparently did a lot of the writing/editing etc... themselves, and it was very time-consuming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 That sucks. I really enjoy the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great ML Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 3 hours ago, Technico Support said: That was great. "GOD DAMMIT YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO GET YOURSELF OVER." Gary Capetta was awesome. Did he start every intro with "wrestling fans..." or just the major ones? There was one guy who did the call for, I want to say, the Starrcade cage match between the Rock & Roll Express and the Andersons and he was insane. He took this deep hoarse breath between every other word. "Ricky (suck wind) and Robert (gasp) The Rock (suuuck) and Roll (gaaaasp) Express!" IIRC, he even added his own little flourishes, referring to the RNR as "THE VASTLY POPULAR." That would be the GREAT and criminally underrated Tom Miller. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess that explains why it was was the best network original series that wasn't some variation of a shoot interview. Oh well, better to have loved and lost.

Bustronaut Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I read somewhere that Edge & Christian basically have carte blanche with Vince because they were the wrestlers that changed the demeanor of the locker room from "playing video games" all night to ACTUALLY going back to your hotel and playing video games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I liked Damien Sandow from the Intellectual Saviour of the Masses (my favourite version), stunt double to The Miz and Macho Mandow. Damien Sandow highlights: Skip to 04:28. I'm glad I got to see him at the WWE wrestling show I went to with my Dad, last month, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thee Reverend Axl Future Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 I still don't get why they let Sandow go. He could have adapted to any gimmick or angle they gave him - are the writers really unable to come up with anything for him? I am sure they were not paying him that much. He may not have sold tickets, but he certainly entertained the crowd every time and there are places for folks like that. - RAF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Someone said it best, (paraphrasing here) if "creative" can't come up with somethin for you, why is the *wrestler* the one who's let go?? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilwaldo Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 It is sad that a number of solid character guys got released. The talent was there but in the end it feels like Creative failed in that regard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like they will with a bunch of the nXt guys when they get called up because there is that weird thing where creative has to have something for someone but if someone comes up with something there basically blackballed for getting over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I was thinking about how some NXT guys are ready for the main roster, but with so many guys coming back from injury, there's simply no room unless more cuts are made or someone leaves.

If you get over and demonstrate that you can consistently get over while weathering the storms*, you're golden. *this caveat applies to Ryder and Ziggler.

While I agree with him about this, Jim Cornette will rant about anything as long as people keep paying attention to him. The way to get rid of Jim Cornette is stop paying attention to him, just like getting rid of Freddy Krueger by not having dreams. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's dead on with this, though... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
