[Dr. Evil]

Brodie Lee signs WWE Developmental Contract

 

[Pink Ranger]

It's strange seeing all these TNA dream matches, yet Samoa Joe isn't mentioned once. How the mighty have fallen. I'd kill to see Ambrose vs. 2005 Samoa Joe.

I used to be a fan of Joe, but honestly I can't see how he could fit in with the WWE's current lineup. There isn't a lot of use for a "little big man" in the WWE, unless you want to shoot him straight to Punk or Bryan.

 

[The Sage]

I've seen Brodie Lee twice live. He's a solid big man.

Because the product in both companies is not all that great, I usually like to play fantasy booking for fun.

If TNA and WWE did an Invasion storyline, who would you book against each other?

Dolph Ziggler versus AJ Styles brutha!

 

[TheOnlyOmega]

Great news about Brodie Lee, has excellent potential, wouldn't be surprised to see him on the roaster after SummerSlam.

I used to be a fan of Joe, but honestly I can't see how he could fit in with the WWE's current lineup. There isn't a lot of use for a "little big man" in the WWE, unless you want to shoot him straight to Punk or Bryan.

The problem is, I don't think there is anyway he could get over in WWE unless they were to let him go all out for 20 minutes with either D-Bry or Punk.

 

[Wheels]

I've watched a couple of Lee's matches from CHIKARA. He's okay.

 

[Pink Ranger]

The problem is, I don't think there is anyway he could get over in WWE unless they were to let him go all out for 20 minutes with either D-Bry or Punk.

That's part of the problem: the WWE doesn't like workers who can only tell a good story against 1 style of opponent. For that matter, I'm sure Punk or Bryan could work a match against any of us here and make it a 3-star program at least.

 

[TheOnlyOmega]

I'm loving all of these big men being brought in. Mainly because Punk and Cenas matches against big men are usually pretty damn good. See Henry/Punk, Umaga/Punk, Umaga/Cena. Hell, even Orton has good matches with big men.

You know, I don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing him talk. Piper is the definition of a living legend in my book.

Can't wait to see how they'll do against Brodie Lee. He's one of the smarter big men I've seen on the indy circuit.

Re: Nash

I love how he puts over Punk on Twitter, but wouldn't bother to do it in the ring despite being paid.

I bet Brian didn't know he was being taped.

Otunga Considered For Title Run
David Otunga has been talked about by WWE officials to have a United States title run. The plan was to take the title of off Santino Marella after WrestleMania 28. According to reports, some are surprised Santino still has the title which leaves it unknown if Otunga is still in top consideration.

SD! Not Moving to Tuesday
WWE is upset with the disappointing viewing numbers for the live Smackdown specials they have done on Tuesday in recent months. Reportedly, WWE has no current plans or consideration to move Smackdown to Tuesday's on a regular basis.

Sucks because live shows are a 100 times better.

May not be a bad move. The crowd legitimately hates Otunga, so giving him a title can help build up a good, maybe new, fan favorite to oppose him.

SD would do better on a different night though.

It would have been better if he was an evil european soccer player. Sorry, "football." That would rile up the American fans.

I can imagine Cesaro ripping on a town with a prominent NFL team, or trashing any NFL related guest hosts(you know it'll happen).

Good to see the amount of participation in the TNA vs. WWE dream matches

I'm surprised by Hunter's matches/picks!

My matches....

-Sting vs. Undertaker (a few years, or several, too late, but I imagine the crowd atmosphere of these two icons wrestling would be off the charts, plus I think they would know how to smartly put the match together given their limitations these days. Sting always knew how to works with big guys too. )

- Bobby Roode vs. John Cena (the best heel in wrestling today vs. the biggest face in wrestling today. Roode is so great at what he does, plus he can work so Cena is a natural fit for him, particularyl given their statuses in their respective companies at the moment).

-James Storm vs. CM Punk (A natural given their polar opposite characters and their promo skills. As mentioned earlier, either guy could play the face or heel in this program and it would be just as effective. I'd go with Punk as the heel, seeing as he has lost a little bit of luster lately as a face while Storm has picked steam as the beer drinking face).

-Abyss vs. Kane (Their cheesy monster characters are a perfect fit for one another. Kane would have to go over here. I would hope Abyss came in better shape for something like this).

-AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho (I think these two could put on a great storytelling type of match. AJ is your perfect whitemeat baby face while Jericho is a classic old-school heel who could work to AJ's style)

-Jeff Jarrett vs. HHH (There is some history here given they were both in WWE and their spots in their respective companies. Both are from a previosu era so I think they could put on a great match that true wrestling fans would appreciate. Plus, some might hate me for this, but I think if you wanted bring in the Steph/Karen dynamic, that could be fun).

-Kurt Angle vs. Daniel Bryan (two of the best technical wrestlers going at it today, with Angle elevating Bryan. A pure mat classic. enough said)

I have more matches to list but class calls me right now...more later

 

[Wheels]

They really need to have Otunga feud with some good workers to help him improve. He has a good look and can draw decent heat, but sometimes I want to scratch out my eyes when watching him wrestle.

 

[The Sage]

Oh yeah...Samoa Joe vs John Cena.

Sounds odd on paper probably, but I think they could have a good match. I think their friends in real life. Cena's good at working with monsters, which is what Joe is despite his size.

 

[TheOnlyOmega]

How about Kazarian, Styles, Sin Cara, Bourne, Ziggler and RVD in an Ultimate X match?
