zev Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 When I think of the Sheeherders, barbed wire matches come to mind. So here's this: 4
odessasteps Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Portland Sheeps or Puerto Rico Sheeps might be the way to go. Also depends on which version you want to see.
Curt McGirt Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 As evinced on the '80 PR set, there is good Sheepherders and bad Sheepherders. They are really good at being human bloodbanks and drawing heat, but it depends on the match. Portland is the other side of the coin that I've yet to get to experience because I'll be damned if I even touch the extras before I finish that PR set. IT'S THISCLOSE! Even if you hate the Sheepherders, you'll probably love this. The crowd tries to kill them. Literally. 1

Brysynner Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 So there's a rumor going around that Becky Lynch is not going to get much promo time because Kevin Dunn hates her voice. If true, that would be a dumb hill to die on for Dunn, who historically, has been able to read the tea leaves on who the McMahons favor. And considering the rumors that Vince (and Steph) really like Irish wrestlers it would be dumb for Dunn to admit he does not like her Irish accent.
RIPPA Posted October 28, 2016 Author Posted October 28, 2016 Was the rumor started by an Irish Insider? 4
Craig H Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 It came from Bryan Alvarez. Who knows where he got that from. With Kevin Dunn, would anyone be that surprised that he would take issue over this? The guy has a mold of performer in mind. KO admitted as much that the rumors of his body shape not being what production liked were true. Ultimately, if something like that comes up, or if true, something like Becky's accent comes up, then KO has proved that the way to break down that barrier is to get in Vince's ear and try to be a part of everything. That's pretty much what grabbing the brass ring is, unless you're Roman and it's handed to you. It's getting in Vince's ear, getting in HHH's ear, learning what goes on in gorilla, learning other aspects of production, arriving early, leaving late, etc. If you can do all of that while being good in the ring and acceptable on the mic then it doesn't matter what Dunn says. 3
Matt D Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Becky had that good promo a few weeks ago too. I thought it was stronger than, let's say Sasha's "retirement" promo. Really she should follow these two simple steps. Step #1: Go to production meetings. Step #2: Marry Steph. 5
goc Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Imagine believing "news" that came out of Bryan Alvarez's mouth.
bink_winkleman Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Is it her Irish accent, or her deep, husky voice? I'd bet it's the latter. FWIW, I like everything about her, just pointing out that that seems like where Dunn would have the issue.
Wyld Samurai Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Kevin Dunn, of a people, could very well end up being the downfall for Nakamura.

Well people are all up in arms this week again because Meltzer pointed out that the WWE still has no plans to bring Nakamura up since they want him to be be the NXT brand carrier
Wyld Samurai Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Well that's logical. whom else could really lead NXT that's ready? NXT isn't purely about developmental anymore... they're a super indy with a mix of established names and kids. Given time, I can see Roderick Strong becoming The Guy.... but until then it's just Nakamura.
ivpvideos Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 People really don't get that NXT is more a tool to sell network subscriptions then it is to develop guys.
caley Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 The Becky Lynch promo thing seem like B.S. for two reason. Number 1, the women on Smackdown don't generally cut very long promos anyways, and, Number 2, Lynch JUST had a back-and-forth promo with Alexa Bliss this week.

John from Cincinnati Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Does that arrangement pre-date the Network?

Rude was in control for most of it and I'd say 95% of his offense at that point in his career consisted of clubbing forearms and chinlocks. Also felt like Steamboat was phoning it in during the match too. That's interesting. I keep meaning to post somewhere how I think that match might be better than their overrated Iron Man match. I certainly wouldn't call it "pretty crappy".
clintthecrippler Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 You know you have been in the wrestling bubble for far too long when a co-worker at the office Halloween party walks in with a lucha mask on, but then he starts to take it off while people are hanging around watching, and your instinct is to shout "Kayfabe, motherfucker, KAYFABE!" 9
