I think WWE has reached peak hubris. WWE is the blandest, tasteless, and most popular fast food restaurant. NXT is WWE’s Bacon Egg Cheese & Biscuit meal AKA the only good thing on the menu.

It's been brought up on here before, but the gist of it was that it seemed unlikely Japanese wrestlers would jump ship to a WWE backed Japanese promotion because they are, by and large very loyal to their home promotion. When Japanese wrestlers do jump to WWE, it's usually a case of it being a dream of theirs and having accomplished all they can, like the case of Kushida. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like this might've been the peak of it, maybe 1998 but in any case, I'm honestly kind of flabbergasted. I honestly didn't realize how truly, truly massive WWE's roster is. There were some NXT and UK guys I didn't even know about, and I like to think I'm pretty savvy. Plus, this guys list doesn't even take into account the guys and gals at the PC. 6 hours ago, MORELOCK said: I'm almost positive that Solie list of WCW's roster is missing a lot of names. at a quick glance, i notice Barry Darsow is listed twice. Here's some wrestlers that wrestled on Nitro and/or Saturday Night in December of '97 that aren't on the list: Prince Iaukea Disco Inferno Glacier Villano IV Hardbody Harrison Disorderly Conduct (Mean Mike & Tough Tom) Ciclope Tokyo Magnum there's also a bunch of jobbers on the weekend syndicated shows, but it's hard to say who was under contract. i think it's safe to say there were probably lots of guys out for one reason or another, so the list is nowhere near comprehensive. EDIT: nWo members not on the list: nWo Sting Disciple/Ed Leslie Rick Rude (not a wrestler, but....) Raven's Flock members not on the list: Ron Reis Horace Hogan Edited June 20, 2019 by twiztor thought of more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That monstrosity is a nise version of his ECCW theme: Which is so good. They would pump it so loud at the Commodore in particular that you could feel it shake your entire being.

Nice Guy Eddie Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) I love the ELP Misfits logo. I hope there's a shirt of that available I prefer his New Japan version. It has a heaviness the ECCW one doesn't have. Edited June 20, 2019 by Nice Guy Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) I should like the heavier one more but I actually prefer the old one. More cursing and a Misfits skull, I guess.

NXT is WWE’s Bacon Egg Cheese & Biscuit meal AKA the only good thing on the menu. To be fair 205 Live and NXT UK are really good options also. So I would consider them slight variations of the BE&C biscuit. And I'm a Sausage Egg Cheese McGriddle guy myself. As for walkout music if I was a relief pitcher I'd use The Rockers theme 'cause why not. If I was a batter I like Eddie's choice of Taguchi's theme. EDIT: I can say a lot of things about the Lars injury. But I'll show restraint and hope in that 6-9 months out he gets the help he needs so he isn't a piece of shit going forward.

Craig H Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 If I were a reliever or closer, I'd come out to Stone Cold's music every time complete with head shake and shit talking the whole way from the bullpen to the mound.

KUSHIDA has posted a couple of these since joining NXT and it is a interesting look at someone trying to adapt to over here I'd imagine any foreign wrestler who comes here is shocked at how much their home foods cost. Think of the Mexican wrestlers having to pay $14 for 3 street tacos for instance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
