Pete 13,183 Posted January 12, 2018 53 minutes ago, България завинаги said: When was his last really great match against a non-lucha guy? I just watched him vs Ospreay from last year and it was decent an' all, though he botched the finish and probably one or two other things as well. My original point about offence is probably a bit questionable in retrospect as he could do Tornado DDTs and Sunset Bombs and stiff kicks and just about make that work. But it's a stretch. Obviously Mysterio and Omega could have a great match, whether putting them together in this context is the best use of either of them is something I would question. His JAPW match with Low-Ki in 2015 was fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what the majority of the nWo did, just ride the coattails of Hogan, Hall, and Nash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never been super high on jacked up Mysterio beyond the obvious matches, so my bias is clear, but I thought that match was really by the numbers and was bemused by the high praise it got.

Jacked up Misterio's best work was with jacked up Eddie. Shame they were both juiced to the gills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeathyBoy 294 Posted January 15, 2018 I gotta say I respect the Hell out of Amell for getting involved so often because he gains nothing from it career wise at all. Dude clearly just loves wrestling. I mean he worked a lower card match at Summerslam, then had his next match on a non televised Indy show. Mad respect because that is not something he did for any reason other than "this shit was my childhood dream." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I respect that he channeled some money into charity from it, I guess? Maybe that he didn't treat it like a big joke. But not so much that he's doing something he enjoys with people that he enjoys because he enjoys it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RIPPA 28,185 Posted January 16, 2018 Someone asked Cody who his dream opponent for the show. This is an... odd... response to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Fowler 12,766 Posted January 16, 2018 It feels more like a dodge. Or we can go super conspiracy theory like at least one response did. "Organic? He must mean Daniel Bryan zomg!!!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beech27 2,609 Posted January 16, 2018 I would hope he has plans in place for something to come up "organically" and wants to avoid presenting it as a show of all dream matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oyaji 6,339 Posted January 17, 2018 I was going to ask why WWE hasn't signed her yet as she checks off all their boxes but somebody asked Dave why on the F4W board and it sounds like it's non-wrestling related. There was that alleged bust up ages ago with a WWE vet, but could it really be that? Is she intolerable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a few friends run into her at various shows and she expects to be treated like a 20 year vet and that none of the normal rules apply to her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
