Dirty J. Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Dont get the Hook meme, but I’m starting to get old. He Looked smooth in the ring though. Action Bronson entrance music is dope though. Good album as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Ok, so I have to wonder about Hook's hair. Is Hook's mom a Saiyan? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eikerir Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Hook looked great in the ring, reminded me of Ronda Rousey’s in ring style which I greatly enjoyed. But man, that swagger and presence is no joke and elevates him so much over a lot of the other young guys in the company. The extreme confidence makes him stand out so much and gives him that star aura which is hard to see in new wrestlers. Compare his debut to say Brock Anderson’s and it’s crazy how much better he came off. Loved the Tazzplex and Tazzmision. Good stuff, I’m hooked.

Firebreaker Chip Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) That Gory Bomb Wheeler hit on Fenix was brutal, looked like he was trying to make a hole in the the ring with him If Hook is half saiyan I'll be interested to see how the oompa loompa half of his genes manifest over time Edited December 11, 2021 by Firebreaker Chip 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly is the same alien race as King Kai. 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jimbo_Tsuruta Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Hook has it. Can we have a minion following him to the ring with a mirror so he can fuss over his hair before his matches? #Narcissist2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Great Justice Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) I had the wrong side of the bet on Taz’s kid having 1,000% more pro wrestler DNA than Arn Anderson’s kid. Hook jumps straight to the S Tier of pro wrestler offspring along with Steiner. Edited December 11, 2021 by For Great Justice 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I’d say the two biggest forward looking story bits on the show were Tully hitting the kick to the groin to a held Sting and Cole doing the same to a held Cassidy. Vary that up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked incredible in pretty much everything he did, he is able to do slick grappling while still not giving a single fuck. His hair stayed in place the entire match. He walked out without getting his hand raised and yeah the choke release matching the beat drop has to stay. Only thing I didn't like was redrum. El Camino is a sick name for the crotch lift suplex. Yeah, whoever said Hook should be the Evil/Dark Side Orange Cassidy was really on to something I wanna see him alternate between stretching a guy and eating his bag of chips like in Don Muraco's famous hoagie squash 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Hook was killer. It was good for him to debut in front of a terrible Long Island crowd because they were only gonna pop for something like a squash of a guy with a Spanish language name. Seriously, it felt like they were beamed in from Swanson and Ritner circa 1995. I am totally over anything the Lucha Bros do anymore. FTR are awesome but even their talent cannot make me enjoy any of the same chain of spots that Fenix and Penta truck out every night. Like in WWE, somebody needs to put name tags on these blondes so I can remember which is which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Well, if you put Griff and Jungle Boy next to each other, spun me around a bunch of times and made me squint, I'd have the same problem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Man, Hook was fucking awesome. If he can pair his in ring ability with something sounding like how Taz did in ECW, then man, the sky is the limit for him. There may be four pillars in AEW, but one Hook brings them all down. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Yuta's biggest problem is that a lot of his signature stuff requires someone else to do 50% of the work for him. That's not going to work so great with part of the roster. It worked quite well with Cole though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
