Matt D Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Hook matchup is interesting. Fuego was a face. Bears have been faces more than heels lately, but only lately. Solo's a heel and they have QT in the image with him, if I'm remembering right. My hope is that they have a tweener and facing both faces and heels moving forward.

I think they're just putting Hook in the ring with a bona fied heel because they know that Hook working heel has not gotten boos, and probably won't even if he punted a puppy into the fifth row. Hook is the Anti-Cody... or is Cody the Anti-Hook? Edited January 7, 2022 by J.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Is Hook still officially in Team Taz? Outside of his dad acknowledging him, they’ve really distanced him from the stable. I can see a scenario where Hook turns on the stable, and joins Dante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I keep seeing the scenario where Hook & Hobbs turn on Ricky Starks so that Hook can claim the FTW championship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I'm almost certain we'll see Hook vs Nese by the end of January. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 I hope they save it for the PPV. It’d be a good “test”, and Nese is capable enough to hold Hook’s hand in a big spot like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're starting to tease it as of two weeks ago. Hook will be on to whoever's next by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they have someone good lined up for him at the PPV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Really seems more and more like they're positioning Hook as their Goldberg. I mean, fuck it, why not? I'm not going to deny the dude is handsome as hell and cooler than most people in wrestling. Let his star shine and let him figure out more about wrestling along the way. People just want to see the guy and see him murk others so just put whoever the fuck in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf&Subs Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Shame Brad Armstrong isn’t around. He’d make a great week to week sacrifice. Ooooooh… Janela would be great for Hook to toss around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Angelico and Avalon feel like stepping stones to the Sydals and Kazarians of the world. I feel like JD Drake would make him look like a million bucks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Thinking of people a cut above in the pecking order who could be credible win a few months down the line, I think there might be a fun scenario where Hook could out-shoot Jake Hager. Speaking of which, has he been seen since Full Gear? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zendragon Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 They should just turn team taz. I mean who is really a heel on the team anyway? Do people want to boo Tazz? Ricky got cheered over Brian Cage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 A Dustin-Cody rematch would rule ass, but Sammy’s on a higher tier and this is clearly a kick the can down the road move. Huge blow for the special, but that’s the way with everything right now. Match should be very good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbladeKiss87 Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 So Atlas hurt his knee and Cole did a knee bar type thing? Kind of a dick move. I'm on the Hook train officially. Woman's match with Ruby and Jamie was a "Settle down" special. Main was fun but had nothing on the woman's match last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) I will forget everything from this show in about 40 minutes minus HOOK murdering QT and a real bummer of a replacement match. Dustin is a legend but your quarterly special feels like a mid tier Rampage now. Clash this ain't. Having 100 people on the roster and a lot of rods in the fire should lead to something more meaningful than this as a replacement.

To be fair, Cole was practically caressing that knee in the "kneebar". 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
