NOV WRESTLING CHIT CHAT THREAD


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

They should bring in a crazy looking fucked up dude like Nozawa or Kasai

I prefer the versatility of Nosawa

Kasai has the goggles spot, I can see that being easily used in the WWE. Now, they'd probably veto him leaping off the titantron to splash someone duct-taped to a table on the ramp

Nakamura seems like a great call. Not that it's ever likely to happen as he's probably doing just fine in New Japan and WWE are unlikely to want him, but they could bring him in tomorrow as some kind of crazed, drunken knee-assassin and he'd be one of the best things on any of their shows. I'd also pay good money to see Yujiro Takahashi turn up as the fourth member of 3MB, complete with spectacular porno-sax entrance music.

I want Yujiro to be booked absolutely everywhere, gimmick untouched.

 

If I had to make a list of guys with size/charisma/style that could work in WWE, it would be Tanahashi, Nakamura, Morishima, Okada, possibly Minoru Suzuki(He has a simple style).  Outside shot of Nagata.

Real talk, I thought they had something with Tatsu.  He was reasonably protected in ECW, and was presented as someone to take seriously, and guess what?  He was getting over.

 

Ibushi could work since his style is so visually pleasing.

RE:David. It's OK, per folks over at the Wrestlezone, Benoit didn't even do it, after all.

 

 

I think this is a great idea for a thread. Considering there is probably at least a 50/50 shot that he was set up (Kevin Sullivan is a good possibility, I have John Cena as another prime suspect. We all know he isn't the kind of guy he's portrayed to be on TV) there needs to be a serious discussion about this.

If there truth were to come out that Benoit didn't do it(again, something I think is quite likely) there would be major changes. The media would have to answer to all the slandering and whatnot it did not only of Mr. Benoit, but the entire WWE. I expect some big lawsuits and some big payouts.

Popularity wise, it'll do wonders for the WWE. Old viewers would flock back and new ones would come in bushels once they see the WWE isn't about guys on roids who murder people. I would fully expect the WWE to at least double in popularity after Benoit is found innocent.

I could go on and on but when the truth comes out it really is going to be a gamechanger and people will look at WWE and the entire landscape of pro wrestling in a whole new light.

 

 

See, if you ask me, this is the perfect opportunity to turn Cena heel. All of the IWC smarks who turn out to boo Cena each night will have real fuel for their fire and the children who view Cena as a hero will now villainize Cena as a conspirator to murder. It's safe to say John Cena would draw some of the most, legitimate heat ever as a heel. If he's gonna go heel, may as well go all in. No better time than when WWE can take advantage of a real life situation such as this.

 

 

We all know John Cena wants nothing more than to be at the top and he could've seen Benoit as a threat to that. Besides, he wouldn't be the first Boston area superstar to pull off a shocking murder (see Aaron Hernandez)

 

 

Exactly, especially with Cena as the perpetrator. Although this does get me concerned over the welfare of Daniel Bryan, another who has been compared to Benoit. I think we can guarantee a Cena win at SummerSlam, or we might just get another bowflex case.

On the other hand, if it was indeed Sullivan, it should be brought to light, don't you think? The only question is how he did it, I am not sure if you've watched HBO's Game Of Thrones, but a worshiper of a fire God was able to cunjor shadow assassins by giving birth to them, well we all know what Sullivan worships. Seriously, a man with that kind of power needs to be brought to heel, plus the inevitable ratings spike spawned from Benoit's innocence. We can only hope it was actually Sullivan and not Cena.

 

Dear God.

While checking in on Ryota Hama (5'9, 450lbs, BMI is 66!).. I did find a match with Hama and Yasufumi Nakanoue v. Kohei Sato & Ryoji Sai. Sato/Saj are both in the 6'3/6'4 range and Sato has a back tattoo, so that probably gives him a few points in the WWE formula.

 

And Hama went from repping Ribera to a black/gold shorter/fatter Rikishi outfit

I think Tozawa has one of the better shots at having a solid career in the WWE. It'll be a mid-card comedy guy. He knows enough english and has enough comedic timing to hang with R-Truth and Santino in backstage skits. He'd clown the 3MB with his craftiness. He'd make bigger guys look awesome, and job to guys who are getting built, and he'd have good competitive stuff on Main Event with Tyson Kidd, or Zayne, and Neville when they get called up. He'd be a rung below Tajiri/TAKA but above well above Funaki or Kenzo. 

 

I've resigned myself to the fact that no Japanese wrestler will get pushed seriously in the WWE. The best we can hope for is a Tajiri or Taka run, which is pretty good, honestly. Lots of guys in America will never get what those guys had. It makes me sad, but the good news is that I can just watch puroresu and not worry about it.

Sai was educated in England, so his English is probably decent as well. He's also quite bland, unfortunately.

Yeah, I kinda reached that conclusion after summarizing that match in another thread and realizing that I didn't remember anything notable that Sai did for 10 minutes. Sato at least seemed to kinda do memorable stuff and he had a good finish

 

as for Hama. I don't know if he's actually taller than the Headhunters (who were a long-term rumored addition to the WWF but could never get a regular job because they were short fat twins)

Sato and Sai are sort of bland and have little charisma. The only thing in their favor really is height. Hama doesn't have the athleticism/stamina. The traveling schedule alone would likely kill him.

Even taking out the absurdity and lack of sense in these claims, I simply refuse to believe someone who wears jorts on a regular basis is a criminal genius capable of pulling off three murders and escaping undetected.
