  1. So far, I've only gotten past Steiners/Headshrinkers, which was awesome except for the botched finish.  It was funny to hear Monsoon announce there'd be no reply and throw it right to the back.  I'm pretty sure it was a WCW match, as you said.  They must have crossed paths in 89/90, right?

    I thought Michaels/Tatanka was slow and dull but I'll keep an open mind for Luger/Perfect. 

     

  2. I'm not a fan of Nakamura's shtick but looking at the final four, who else can can I realistically say might be eligible to be called the best in the world?   Bayley and Sasha are very good but are immensely overrated and haven't done much great stuff since the callups and Muertes is 20% Banderas, 80% booking and it's shocking he's gotten this far.  I don't think Nakamura's nearly as "charismatic" as he's given credit for but I can't deny how good he is i the ring and the impact he had on NJPW.

  3. 1 hour ago, NickMD said:

    They acknowledged CZW in the past.  Mainly on the Shield documentary they had out two years ago.  And I think he brought it up in Table for Three as well.

    But it's still weird hearing mention of CZW on a WWE-produced show/video.

    They did a piece on the career of Drake (Younger) Wuertz on their site, which of course had to mention CZW pretty heavily.

  4. Brock's not the agent laying out his matches.  If someone wanted Brock matches to go 50/50 and for Brock to sell like Steamboat, I'm sure he would.  Blaming Brock for his booking and match layout is nonsensical.  Are you saying he should be in booking meetings protesting this stuff, begging to give Luke Harper a little more shine?  I just don't understand your argument.

     

    Brock is booked to be a killer.  Does he portray that role well?  Good.  If your problem is with the role he's playing, that's the fault of the guys writing that role.  Bruce Willis isn't bad at acting because you didn't like the twist in The Sixth Sense.

    (I actually fully admit that I might not be into Bayley as a force as much if I didn't have a young daughter)

     

    That said, I meant what I said about her being an earnest, likable, babyface champ who just seems like she's glad to be there, that they actually have overcome the odds again and again, which is monumentally rare in WWE post 2000. 

     

    So it's more the booking than anything about her work specifically? If you swapped her and Becky, for example, is Becky the one getting all this love?

     

     

    A good chunk of the voting in this tournament is based on booking.  If Asuka was out there having 50/50 matches and not given the presentation she has been given, how far would she make it?  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

     

    I guess the question is how does a wrestler do with the booking they're given?  Shit man, I don't know.  I voted for Bayley because AJ's a chinless homophobic dogwhistle racist Billy Ray Cyrus looking  motherfucker.
