PUNQ Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well, I agree to some degree with Elgin's criticism of him not showing enough fire. That was exactly my impression after the 8th day of the World Tag League. To quote myself " I’m liking the Elgin & Cobb team, but they lack ruthless aggression.", Cobb on his first tour of New Japan is coming across too much like he's playing a heavyweight strong man than actually being one. It might work on the indys, but won't cut it in the big leagues. Unless he faces the Best Friends though, who are specialists at play-wrestling, which resulted in the rather awesome November 30th match-up.

Technico Support Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Holy shit that IM conversation. "How's Cobb?" "He sucks" "Well wait, maybe he has some good ideas and you should listen to him" "HE SUCKS. FUIUD" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 That's why if I was participating in that GWWE poll at the Place to Be Nation, I would have had Casas as my #2 (Bockwinkel could still be #1 based on the Angelo Poffo-snubbing legends battle royal from the 80s.) This is even more surreal by the way because you don't just have Casas but Hijo Del Santo too. I'm fairly certain this was before they were regularly teaming too.

I'd never seen anything of Cobb's prior to Matanza and dug him in the role. Ironically enough when I first saw him wrestling as himself in PWG a short time later he just came off as a slightly more agile version of Elgin. The two of them are pretty interchangeable to me but Cobb has a bit more versatility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first saw him in PWG (probably a year or so ago), all he did was big moves in between segments where he was obviously blown up. Just suck wind, suplex, repeat. He's gotten so much better since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tromatagon Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Cobb had some really cool dark matches in the temple before he became Matanza, but I didn't think THIS MOTHERFUCKER HAS SOMETHING until he started working heel before Matanza's debut, which is when he almost got this Steiner Bros fuck you you're getting suplexed and I might have just made that one up vibe. That character, and Matanza, play to his strengths more - he does cool shit and just fucking steamrolls his opponent. If you get your shit in on him it doesn't work. As himself, he gives/sells a lot but I think he's great in both roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it occurs to me: Bray Wyatt is now the least over, most expendable/useless member of the former Wyatt family. He has gone from the hottest talker on the roster, the next Undertaker and leader of a group clearly greater than the sum of its parts, and become a lower card gimmick act on par with Papa Shango. The Shield reunion felt like a big deal. A Wyatts reunion would feel like a step back for 3/4 members!! Bray is an entrance at this point. If you take that away, he's done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I don't think this has been mentioned, but the Observer (and Sheamus on his YouTube channel) have said that he's rehabbing spinal stenosis. Which is the same thing that eventually caught up to Edge and Stone Cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Did he specifically say his neck? Otherwise it can be other parts of the spine. It's a narrowing of the spinal canal. Neck and lower back are most common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Just since that had been a piece of conversation. From the newest WON Quote Chris Jericho was on our show talking about the birth of the match with Kenny Omega and noted the actual idea was Don Callis making a remark in passing about him wrestling Omega at the Dome, and since he was a free agent, it got serious from there and pushed for it. What put it over the top was when four New Japan officials, including booker Gedo, flew to New York where he was doing a book signing for the first meeting. He figured at that point it was real because if they’re flying four people in, they want it to happen. He seems this as him being a WWE guy, even though he’s a free agent, against a New Japan guy as a special dream match. He said he did talk to Vince McMahon about it before it got out. He’d already made the deal and they had a brief conversation and Vince was fine with it when he pitched that this would only make him a bigger star And for those that didn't see it - Fozzy has tour dates Mania week (including the day of Mania). So Jericho won't be at Mania 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
