Zakk_Sabbath Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Rusev is just consistently killin it on Twitter. It makes me wonder what his promos would've been like in another time and place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Just now, Eivion said: How so? They haven't been to Hawaii in what six or seven, years they got Cena vs Nakamura on the card, and the Japan show why not air the July 1st show. Beast in the East was a fun show last year why not keep it as a yearly thing. And they could use these "network exclusives" as a way to entice new subscribers.

The Hawaii cards going out with Cena vs. Nakamura were said to be bullshit. Nakamura & Asuka are not Brock Lesnar. They aren't necessarily people WWE believes or should believe at this point will garner them enough extra subscriptions to be worth putting on the network. There are seemingly no stories going into what appears to be the usual house shows either. So again no real reason to believe they are leaving behind many potential new subscribers by not airing the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 fair enough, still be cool though but what do i know maybe they feel the production costs are not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Honestly I wish they were airing regardless. I keep hoping at some point they will start to put up house shows on the network in general, and I really want to see Nakamura & Asuka's matches.

Maybe not, but on a Hawaii show they probably draw in some more folks who in turn make the crowd that much hotter live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyld Samurai Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Since the acquisition- has the WWE done a War Games? I keep thinking The Club vs The Samoans or Team Cena would be a fantastic War Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I feel quite confident in saying that we will never see a WarGames in WWE. And not because it was a WCW idea so much as I don't think the WWE will ever do a show that has a two-ring set-up. (NXT maybe, with the right building.)

(BP) Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 They could do an Elimination Chamber match with teams. I always substituted that for War Games blowoffs when I was booking the territory on XBox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 A Wargames style EC that's 4 on 4 with a tag team on each side getting a single pod would be boss. Give me Styles/Balor/Anderson/ Gallows vs Reigns/Usos/Joe, please and thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 TNA has done War Games ripoffs with a single ring. They're usually terrible. Jeff put Kaz (I think) through a table on the roof one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I don't think we can ever say "never" maybe in WWE A.V. (After Vince). So I'm watching the NXT preshow. WWE has been having shitty rock songs for themes for like 20 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 You know how the Dudleys have for years been doing a false finish off a Belly to Back Suplex (Bully)/ Neckbreaker (Devon) combination? Did anyone ever actually name that move? JR always used to mis-call it as the 3D even though it clearly wasn't that... I think it was called the Movement Buster in AJPW or NOAH.
