milamber Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 NXT Championship Edition Review: The Great - Kidd vs Neville (NXT Championship). Zayn delivering a Helluva Kick to Titus who tried to screw Neville over. The Good - Charlotte vs Bayley (Womens Championship). Enzo, Cass & Carmella. The VaudeVillians vs Dillinger & Jordan. The OK - The Ascension beating down Itami. Corbin squash. Verdict: Best show since Takeover 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rone Rivendale Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Ambrose has the same problem, as far as talking. I think he is probably the most interesting character on the show right now, but he could stand to improve on the mic. I feel he will improve as his popularity rises though, as I can't help but to think it has to do with confidence in talking Ambrose is already in the top 5 as far as promo skills in WWE right now. And I think it's safe to say he's #2 behind Cena as the top face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is probably the most interesting character on the show right now, but he could stand to improve on the mic. I feel he will improve as his popularity rises though, as I can't help but to think it has to do with confidence in talking. I really don't see it. Ambrose has shown, in my eyes at least, to be great on the mic. His awkward and stilted sentences are intentional, since he's y'know...a little unbalanced. And I don't think there's many in WWE can compare to his mastery of body language. The OK - The Ascension beating down Itami. Cue the IWC foaming at the mouth, claiming that WWE hired KENTA just to bury him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurphy1014 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 The OK - The Ascension beating down Itami. Read something this week that they had Devitt show up to be Itami's partner against The Ascension at the recent tapings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milamber Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Cue the IWC foaming at the mouth, claiming that WWE hired KENTA just to bury him... It was an average beatdown and The Ascension mostly bore me. The idea is good though, having The Ascension put over Itami on their way out of NXT. Itami will probably get the biggest push of KENTA/Devitt/Steen if they want to tap into the Asian markets with the Network. Read something this week that they had Devitt show up to be Itami's partner against The Ascension at the recent tapings. Soon. Funaki said he had Itami's back so they might team together first.

milamber Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Smackdown Review: The Great - Nothing The Good - Miz & Mizdow vs Ziggler & Sheamus. Paige vs Naomi. Big Show apologizing for the Russian Flag incident but refusing to apologize to Lana and Rusev. Cesaro vs Truth. Orton & Kane vs Ambrose & Cena (who left Ambrose to lose so he could chase after Rollins). The OK - Slator Gator vs The Usos. Verdict: Solid well-rounded show with little filler.

fullMETAL Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 2 things. 1) I think it would be AWESOME and HILIARIOUS if at some point Ambrose put on a bad dark wig (with badly painted blond streak) and fake beard and pretended to be Rollins for a promo. Anybody else think that too? 2) For those of you with the WWE Network, there's apparently a short 3-and-a-half minute featurette about "Creating the new WWE World Heavyweight Championship". If possible, could anybody who watches it on computer or tablet screencap the plates' design proofs at about 50-55sec, 1:16, 1:32, 1:38, and 1:50? Somebody recorded it with their camera so I've provided caps of the specific frames from THAT below, in the hopes that one of you who can cap it directly from the video (or even the actual video itself at 720p or 1080p) can provide better shots. http://imgur.com/a/FMtrG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakerNGN74 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Ive had a look around the network and cant find a video about creating the new belt. The video that FullMetal is referring to is a video that plays between shows on the live feed. It isn't archived anywhere on the network to my knowledge.

Mootinie Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 ahhhh far enough i dont watch the live feed. It's good if you're doing something else and just want some background noise. I remember I put on the live feed not too long ago and they randomly played Mick Foley's school project documentary on Dominic Denucci's wrestling school. That was a treat.

Teh_Showtime Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Who would miss WCW? Don't you know it was nothing until they stole WWE talent and really everything they did was a ripoff of WWE and it didn't work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtplaystew Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Hey Ambrose is great and so is Wyatt but both guys could and probably will improve. They're entertaining but they could both be a touch more believable. Id bet you both of those workers know full well that they can get better and are trying to every day. Reminds me of the early versions of the Stone cold character. He was badass right off the bat and knew he was on to something but as the years grew his promos got more realistic and believable and thats when he just took off.

Blackman Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Who would miss WCW? I sure as hell don't. They DID have their World War gimmick match, which was new, yet didn't work either for obvious reasons. I would watch however should they do it again, just once.

Don't you know it was nothing until they stole WWE talent and really everything they did was a ripoff of WWE and it didn't work Up until say mid 1999 always thought that WCW had better matches. while I do think WWE had better main event matches I just thought WCW shows as a whole were better.

bigtplaystew Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Showtime was kidding lol. WCW absolutely had super quality stuff at various points in their tenure and for awhile there was way better than what WWF was doing. WWEvisionist history sees otherwise sometimes.

Jaysin Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Plus, WWE has stolen/copied plenty of things from other promotions over the years. Mr. McMahon came after "Sleazy E" Eric Bischoff. Andre winning the belt and selling the belt to Ted Dibiase was done by Killer Tim Brooks and Larry Zbyszko. Brooks defeated Paul Orndorff for the NWA National Championship and Larry bought it off of Brooks. Bob Geigel then stripped Larry of the championship. The Nexus and the New Breed(WWECW) were basically the New Blood. There are very few "original" ideas in wrestling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I prefered WWE but that might be due to it being unavailable for us Belgians. We had WCW every week and only got to see WWF when in Germany. And I loved the Kane, 'Taker and Goldust characters as a kid, amongst the other freakshows of the day (Mosh, Mankind, etc). WCW had... Goldberg and Sting. It's hard to remember what drew me to my tv-show every sundayafternoon. The cruisers were exciting, but that couldn't have done it. Must've been Stacy Keibler. That's the only rational reason I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitarzu Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 It's not probably the best place, but it's worthy. Happy birthday Bruno Sammartino! http://cbspittsburgh.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/bruno-belt.jpg?w=620&h=349&crop=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packerman120 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Holy crap, did not see that coming.

Russelrules44 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Highlight of Raw: The promo with Adam Rose and those two transgendered "ladies". Damn straight....... But in all seriousness, the highlight of Raw was when The Rock met Rusev and Lana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitarzu Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Aside The Rock, probably a one shot deal, the only big interesting and polarizing thing is Dean Ambrose. Right now you can call it Monday Night AmbRAWse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
