Paul Heyman is the Wrestling Thread's Advocating Jew -- - Part 178

[The Apocalypse]

I marked out so much last night when Hall and Nash showed up.

Seth Rollins @WWERollins · 6h
The @WWENetwork goes global AND @FightSteenFight on the same day?? Times are certainly a changin'. #weretakingover #buyin

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Steen always calls him "little Sami Zayn" so this made me smile. Shout out to El Generico who is currently helping the orphans down in Mexico.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I've come to the conclusion that The Rock is the biggest mainstream indie fan and I love that.

 

[Dr. Evil]

I have doubts about how Steen is going to do in the WWE.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

He can work. He's charismatic. He can talk. I don't see the problem. Then again, they are de-pushing Cesaro so...

Vince will look at him and think he's too fat.

 

[SpideyFan866]

As long as Vince trusts Haitch's judgement, KENTA, Devitt, Steen and Others should be fine.

And as far as Cesaro is concerned, I believe his push is being stymied in order to A) pull the trigger at the right time and B) not draw from Rollins, Reigns, and Ambrose, who are red ****ing hot right now and really need all the attention possible.

When I first heard of Steen I used to say he looks like a Gamestop store manager rather than a wrestler...then I seen his matches and the dude is good stuff. Excited to see what WWE let's him do.

WWE desperately needs more wrestlers good on the mic, that is where they are extremely lacking and easily where they miss the legends like Rock, Stone Cold, etc...But also the recent CM Punk and the personal fav, Kurt Angle.

Daniel Bryan is a great underdog and a fun guy but they need to invest more in decent wrestlers and excellent mic' guys rather then brolic beasts who stink on the mic.

If Ryback was great on the Mic he wouldnt be jobbing. There are few exceptions though...Brock Lesnar is just a freak and they hyped him plus he is legit...

Probably why Heyman is in my eyes the most valued WWE character on TV. Cena is a merchandise machine but he has been so stale. Wyatt's pop because they have their usual weekly skit...

Kev Kenderson, the wrestling comic-book-store owner.

I kid, I kid.

I've never hidden the fact that I never liked Steen. But I think going to the 'E will make him the wrestler I thought he'd be given the fanfare he has. It will round him out, so to speak. Give him those little bits that he doesn't have now.

I actually want to see what Steen can offer in the 'E, especially with guys like Wyatt, Zayn (who is leaps and bounds better now than as Generico), Breeze, Shemaus (the potential violence there), KENTA, etc.

I like the fact that WWE.com has announced these hirings using the wrestlers current stage/real names. Makes you wonder if they will keep them under those names or not. I know when they signed Monty Brown all those years ago, they made a big deal about that, and then called him Marcus Cor Von. I don't want them to change their names. They are being introduced to the WWE with their names, might as well let them keep them.

 

[SpideyFan866]

How awesome would it be if Steen and KENTA were last minute NXT DLC for 2K15?

 

[Specter313]

So what? She was blowing kisses so hard she hurt her neck? ***** can't even fake something right.

 

[sweetre15]

In regards to Kevin Steen being seen as "too fat", right now they are pushing Bull Dempsey in NXT whom himself is rather fat so I doubt that would be a problem.

 

[zeroapoc]

Every time there's a new signing I picture the an IWCer hitting the message boards to find out what their own opinion is.

 

[sweetre15]

If Zayn and Neville don't get brought up as a tag team to the main roster then Steen/Zayn should. It would be a nice - highflying technician and fat wrestler pairing ala The Hart Foundation.

 

[zeroapoc]

Bret Hart was highflying?

 

[sweetre15]

Speaking of which apparently Road Dogg is going to be visiting indie shows like PWG to scout for more talent...Something tells me X-PAC would have better judgement out of the DX Alumni when it comes to Indy guys.

As long as they try to get Candace LeRae and Cheerleader Melissa to join WWE though.....I don't care

 

[sweetre15]

Bret Hart was highflying?

No...unless you count the Hart attack as a highflying move

But since Zayn is also technical, I think the comparison could still fit....to an extent. Plus they are both Canadian lol.

 

[Pink Ranger]

I call those "thunder and lightning" tag teams.

 

[Darkness Falls]

So what? She was blowing kisses so hard she hurt her neck? ***** can't even fake something right.

i noticed that too haha it was really strange and awkward

 

[sweetre15]

Sometimes I think Seth should wear his Trademark T-shirt and those pants as his permanent ring gear. It fits him better.

 

[sweetre15]

Man, Seth has the type of heel heat that makes fans cheer for anyone opposing him. Haven't seen that type of heel in WWE since HHH in the early 2000s.

Especially since they boo him for storyline reasons.

 

[sweetre15]

Great matchup between Kofi and Rollins
