Niners Fan in CT Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Fuck all of you, Mason Ryan is amazing on NXT. I'm attempting to catch up on NXT so for now I will take your word that he has improved. Still, I don't understand this idea that Davey can't be controlled. We've never seen him in a situation where he's the underdog and told to do shit differently. If he pulls a Hero (has that been confirmed?) he'll be gone just like Hero..

Matt D Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I wanted to like Ryan more after reading the Olig Williams bio, but in the match from last week or the week before he was frustratingly bad. He tries at least, but it's like watching someone trying to run the ropes through molasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzalez Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Fuck all of you, Mason Ryan is amazing on NXT. If he pulls a Hero (has that been confirmed?) he'll be gone just like Hero.. From a recent Hero interview he pretty much confirmed the dieting problem rumors. "I would say that the issue was less conditioning and more of an overall look. Anybody that has ever known me or been in the ring with me knows that I can wrestle all day and all night long. I don’t get tired, that’s not the issue. It’s more of a cosmetic issue and my body type is different," Hero said. "I have gone from no muscle tone whatsoever to plumping up to three hundred pounds to cutting that off and becoming more toned and then cutting as much body fat as possible, so I have had my fluctuations and I’ve switched things around so I think that was more of a cosmetic look and my coaches or the powers-that-be were all very supportive."

Cristobal Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 So long as I don't do a ballot next year, I'll be ok. I was on top of the leaderboard for way too long this year and obviously I had to put winning an imaginary internet competition with no prize or stakes over basic concepts of civility. And at the end, some other asshole went and ganked the top spot from you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I fully expect Davey Richards to be amazing in NXT and the WWE. Man, I hope so. If only to see the reactions of the over-the-top Davey Richards haters on this board--especially the guy with the "Davey Richards inside a steel Davey Richards" gimmick. I've seen Richards wrestle in person a few times. He was athletic and entertaining. He'll do fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good wrestling is good wrestling. I like Rollins in his role better than I thought I would because he's grown into it. People here are always open to reevaluating a wrestler when he's further along in his career. I'll believe it when I see it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punk went through a period in OVW where he was a little "puffier" than he is now while he was trying to put on some muscle. It's crazy, crazy hard to put on muscle while keeping bodyfat low. Did Hero just have a gut? I can understand why WWE wants their performers to look good without shirts, but now that I'm thinking about it, Hero was a pudgy kid and lost a lot of weight, right? Speaking from experience, when you lose a lot of weight, some of that stomach skin sticks around and makes it impossible to get the look you want without plastic surgery.

nate Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Looking forward to seeing how the American Pitbulls turn out in NXT/WWE. I don't know why you all would want Scarlett signed. They'd call her up and then Eva Marie would tell her that they look too much alike and she'd have to dye her hair blonde.I would totes fap to New Scarlet Beaudreaux aka Blondie McGee. that would be Old Scarlet or current Scarlet in wig Like I said ... Totes. Fap. Punchin' dat munchkin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I think the majority of the internet would root for a meteor if John Cena was wrestling Mark Henry. Our highly enlightened bubble is a hell of a place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Just re-watched Rumble 2004, 2 things sprang out at me. We basically do have Benoit in 2013, he just looks smaller and has a beard. I guarantee if Benoit didn't do what he did, he'd be doing all that Bryan's done, awkward hug it out with Kane, AJ as his crazy gf, the works. Ironically he could have done with a real life Dr Shelby. Also JR and Tazz were on commentary, JR is actually so good, like it's been so long I forgot? Tazz was good too, you know what with actually calling the names of moves, he even specified what sort of suplex was being thrown instead of everything just being "modified".

Gonzalez Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Alright I'm watching that Tombstone video, and I noticed at the 1:01 Undertaker is seen Tombstoning a jobber while still wearing his entrance attire(I assume the jobber stupidly tried to get the better of Taker before the bell). Does anyone know when, and where that match took place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
