Bustronaut Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Can only imagine that horror ZZ would have to face if Bill Demott was still the head person at NXT. Talking to ZZDad ZZ Pop was RIGHT THERE 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trocar Slush Weasel Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I know I'm partly responsible but this thread has gone right off the rails. IMHO, if I have the opportunity, I'm sure as hell taking wrestling advice from William Regal before taking it from Dolph Ziggler v0.1, General Hugh G. Rection or Zamfir Hellraiser. And I'm going to go back and watch the episode again before I present my Dana Brooke counterpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Weren't they having Patrick Clark take bumps and shit for the tryouts? It seems that the guys in NXT who do have a lot of experience are just as valuable in assisting newcomers as they are in their roles on television. Which is not coincidentally how every wrestling school I've ever seen did it. If the main trainer was still active, yeah he'd bump too sometimes, but they'd generally have assistants or more experienced students there to help out. Yeah, I took judo in my early 20s and after about a month or two, it was essentially my job to teach breakfalls to any newbies. It is one of those things that kind of helped both me and the instructers. I needed to practice my breakfalls, and explaining it to others just reinforced everything I needed to focus on to get better. I'm 34 years old, haven't done judo in over a decade and I'm not going to be doing any breakfalls any time soon, but I'm pretty sure I could teach someone how to breakfall like I did it yesterday. Teaching is one of the best ways to learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Regal would tell you to take advice from Robbie Brookside, who never had more than a cup of coffee with either WCW or WWF, before taking advice from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Was it their choice, though? Stock brings some things to the table that Del Ray doesn't, IMO. I've never been a huge fan of hers in the ring but if they think enough of her work to make her a trainer, I don't see what about her they don't find worthy of being talent. Those that can't do, teach. DeMott, Regal, Albert, Billy Gunn never were world champs in their eyes, yet they're entrusted with the future of the company. For the record, this is what my comment was in reply to. They can think someone is worthy of being a trainer without needing them as a talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tromatagon Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 My heart hurt when Albert told them "If you don't know who he is, look him up" about Brookside. Homeboy is he shit and 90% of them probably DID have to look him up. Some of the girls on the main roster don't even know that it isn't a pin if your opponent is on their stomach.
