Those video packages made it seem like they're coming back heel, if so, I'll be disappointed. They're getting cheered big time when they come back. There's no sense trying to force them as heels if the crowd won't buy it. Let them get cheered and go with it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Sasha's more likely to ask to be released than she is to given her release in a Spring Cleaning. And even then, I don't see that happening unless AEW drops a fairly large check and promise to be a feature on her front door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 For comparison - he is the Smackdown roster MEN Aiden English AJ Styles Andrade "Cien" Almas Daniel Bryan Jeff Hardy R-Truth Randy Orton Rey Mysterio Jr Rusev Samoa Joe Shelton Benjamin Shinsuke Nakamura Sin Cara* The Miz Tye Dillinger* Luke Harper* WOMEN Asuka Becky Lynch Carmella Charlotte Flair Lana Mandy Rose Naomi Sonya Deville Zelina Vega IIconics (listed here since they are the only women's tag team) TAGS New Day The Bar Colons Sanity Usos Anderson/Gallows * - injury caveat. I was probably generous in including Dillinger here. Sin Cara just started work at the PC again I didn't included Shane McMahon since I didn't include Triple H on RAW. Also left off Kane because who the fuck knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boydy Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I think EC3 would be a good fit for the New Daniel Bryan, they can also bring up that Daniel Bryan was EC3's former mentor on the old NXT shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Good on Dixie for keeping kayfabe in a different company. Anyone might make waves. Who thought CJ Parker had potential when he left NXT? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a transformation. Naylor called that one too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I’m not just trying to make that reference , as great and beloved as a lot of gimmicks have been in NXT the transition to WWE is very rough. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, nobody realized I was suffering from depression and anxiety and I didn't speak up until I was going into my senior year. My mindset was if I don't tell anyone, I can't get hurt. The best times I had were outside of school, smoking pot and drinking to escape myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I fucking loved high school. Football, dating a cheerleader, lead role in "Little Shop of Horrors..."

Craig H Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I really liked high school. My senior year anyway. That year was the shit. After my dad died the July before school started back up, my whole attitude changed. I wound up running around with a lot of new friends and strengthened the bonds I had with the best friends I still have today. Yeah, NXT as high school works for me as an analogy.
