A Guy Named Tracy Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I can’t figure out how NXT is going to deliver Tomasso vs Johnny Wrestling with Gargano being gone from NXT. A masked gimmick would be dumb. I recall an angle where the man who was responsible for retiring another wrestler begged for the retirement to be lifted, but for the life of me I cannot remember who it was. Savage or Flair, maybe? Not sure how they make that work since Almas was the one responsible for Johnny’s loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Resume the feud on 205 Live, an idea to boost that show's viewership with fans of NXT who don't watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that said, the specifics are escaping me, but I think once was Flair/Rhodes or Flair/Funk and I'm pretty sure they did it in Portland with Playboy Buddy Rose and Rip Oliver, with Rose begging Don Owen to re-instate Oliver so he could get at him.

Ciampa needs to lose that beard or at least the gray in it, dude looks older than me and I'm damn near twice his age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd guess the one you're thinking of is Savage and Hogan begging for Flair to be reinstated in 95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Savage begged to be reinstated for the feud with Jake in late summer/early fall of '91. Remember, Savage lost the retirement match against the Warrior at WM7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I did some digging and that’s exactly what I was thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In canon, Regal gets righteously passed with BXT heels on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
