dpoolez Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Aces and Eights, Immortal and more recent so called 'GFW Invasion'. That is all I need to say. TNAs made some dumb choices but WWE's mistakes are more stupid because a lot of times they seem like the elementary ones that a promotion their age/experience shouldnt be making. TNA's bad decision making is due more to Dixie's inexperience id say (she really didnt throw her weight around power wise until Jarrett got ousted around 08-09 iirc). WWE's seem to be more due to stubborness by management to do most things that'll make the fans happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrippler Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 WWE Management has gotten lazy and complacent since there is no competition. WCW & ECW were the best things to happen to WWE/F and once they bought them out and the shock that Vince bought his competition out wore off, things slowly went downhill. While the product has had its moments and gotten better as of late, they continue to make head scratching moves and seem to have the attitude that the fans will come and watch no matter what they toss out there.

milamber Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I don't care who wins the tournament but I'd prefer a heel given the state of the current roster. Let Cesaro, Ambrose and Reigns chase the title. Or they want to turn Reigns have Ambrose win it. Heel Reigns would have to be a slow burn because it wouldn't be consistent with his character to do a snap turn like Rollins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crychon Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Ugh, why do they keep on putting the NXT tag titles on the most generic teams? Blake and Murphy, though they've gotten better, are pretty generic. The Vaudevillians are interesting, but I don't think they wrestled at all when they had the titles, and were completely taken off the air. Dawson and Wilder... I just don't see it. They need to be ready willing and... Gable to put the belts on a tag team that's actually interesting. Or even Enzo and Cass. That'd work too.

Alexa was the best thing to ever happen to Blake & Murphy. But in all honesty, I'm quite shocked that Ceritifed Gs haven't had a title reign yet. They're easily the most over team.

But in all honesty, I'm quite shocked that Ceritifed Gs haven't had a title reign yet. They're easily the most over team. When they were feuding with Enzo and Cass they needed the titles to be relevant because Enzo and Cass were way more over. But I agree keeping Enzo and Cass away from the titles for this long is a bit of a headscratcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I like Dash & Dawson but I can see why they're not popular. They are bland but they are also a good old school-style tag team. Vicious and unrelenting. When they finally clash with Jordon & Gable it should be the Takeover main event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I just watched Becky vs Sasha on Main Event. Not NXT Takeover quality but good for a 10 minute match and better than just about every main roster match since the start of the Divas Revolution.

You can't do much with them as Champions in my opinion. Enzo has never been booked as a good wrestler either, he's basically a comedic foil to play off Cass' big man bravura.

Enzo has never been booked as a good wrestler either, he's basically a comedic foil to play off Cass' big man bravura. You might have a valid point but it still doesn't change the fact that I wouldn't mind seeing them wear the straps at least once before their main roster debut.

They are by far the best in ring team in NXT. I think thats why they get TV time and are going up against The Ascension. To give them a huge rub and boost while keeping them away from the tag titles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Was it Creative's intent on calling the "Swiss" Superman's finisher the "Neutralizer"? Because it's kind of funny when you consider Switserland's stance in most things. I'm thinking it's intentional as they always play puns in move names.

Jaysin Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Bockwinkel is one of my all time favorites. I didn't have the chance to see him wrestle until I got older thanks to YouTube and various DVD sets. My only real exposure to him as a kid was when he was commissioner for WCW in the early 90s. Whenever they released a Legends Roundtable and he was a part of it, you knew you were in for a treat. He's forgotten more about professional wrestling than most people learn. On a lighter note, The New Day Socks are officially sold out on wweshop. At least in the US they are. Kofi says on twitter they should be restocked soon. I went to buy a pair and shocked to see they were all gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppermint Rage Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 just saw cesaro vs. Roman and for a second there i thoght wwe might actually do something both good and surprising, than Roman won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Raw was good but not great. Cesaro vs Reigns, Neville vs Owens and Ambrose vs Ziggler were great. Del Rio vs Kalisto was sloppy and I cringed at the (accidental?) demasking. Breeze vs Truth was a well-booked squash match. New Day vs The Usos & Ryback was fun. The Ascension needed a win to help the tag division long term but instead they just had the Dudleyz squash them for a cheap babyface pop. The novelty of the Wyatt Family/Brothers of Destruction feud has already worn off. The Divas contract signing shouldn't have main evented and was poorly scripted but at least the brawl was entertaining. Survivor Series looks good on paper at least so I'm cautiously optimistic. http://i.wwe9.com/f/wysiwyg/image/2015/11/undertakerart/20151113_ARTICLE_SSTakerPosters_8.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mootinie Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 WWE having Paige mock Reid Flair's death out of nowhere to build the Diva's title match is surely a shoe-in for Wrestling Observer Newsletter's Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic.

Dave_Scott Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I disagree about Survivor Series. I almost went, but I'm glad I didn't. This card looks awful. Sure there's a few good matches, but nothing's been hyped. There's not even a hyped 5 v 5 on the card! That's what Survivor Series is!!! Sure they announced a 5 v 5 but it's just insult to injury when they don't even say who the participants are. It's disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyver3 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Considering that they had to reshuffle so much in the wake of Rollins injury I think the card looks fine. The Tournament matches look good the diva's match should be awesome compared to what we've been accustomed to and the Wyatt BoD match will be a fun spectical. The survivor series match being an afterthought is nothing new it's been that way for years. Plus I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple more matches added before Sunday.

Kitarzu Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Probably an eight, ten Survivor Series match is bound to happen, too many people left on the card. With a probable Ziggler vs Breeze in the card, here's the people remaining, out of the WWE WHC tournament. Face side: Cesaro, Neville, Kalisto, O'Neil, Ryback. Heel side: Sheamus, Barrett, Big Show, Stardust, Miz. Here's the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
