The Wrestling Thread Ended Itself Early Because of a Dislocated Finger. - - Part 112

They should have the NXT title defended at NOC to promote the show and get more fans interested in these guys before they even come up to the main roster.

That's a great idea

I like the names Jason Styles and Allan Styles for AJ Styles if he signs with WWE.

How about Jake Styles? Then he and Brodus Clay can be a tag team: they have a ready-made theme music/Titantron video package too:

 

[Spike014]

Does AJ Styles need to have his name changed? Doesn't he own the name? Like RVD with his,

The WWE would probably want him to change his name to avoid confusion with Ms. Lee

 

[Hunter Rider]

That would be great. A 4 way title match to showcase some of the best NXT has.

A 4 Way would be ideal, Dallas vs Zayn vs Kruger vs Graves would be my choice.

That's a great idea

The NOC PPV concept gives WWE a logical reason to do this as well so fans might give it a chance rather than crap on it because the guys are lesser known.

Trust me, we do NOT want to see the wrong one booked into the Divas Lingerie Pillowfight.

#BadNewsBarrett could be a pretty good gimmick for Wade.

His costume: a baseball uniform, but a cricket bat. No explanation as to why.

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

I sat through 2 1/2 minutes of crap just to get to "badnewsbarrett" it was worth it.

 

[nite-owl]

#BadNewsBarrett stamp reminded me of the ass stamp from Conan.

 

[chamber-music]

Lol at Cody stick dollar bills down Barrett's shirt.

I would actually love it if Barrett started using a cricket bat in non-disqualification matches like Triple H uses a sledge hammer

 

[Hunter Rider]

The Bryan vs Barrett Cage match on SD is excellent and it looks like that Boma Ye finisher is here to stay. These run of matches with Bryan are certainly a boost for Wade.

Orton's opening promo was arguably his best in years, his voice actually altered multiple times as opposed to staying on one tone for the whole promo. Bryan's response is further evidence of his confidence growing on the stick.

Heyman's promo about Punk becoming a loser was gold, Axel's part....not so much, but he basks in the glow of Heyman's dastardly overness enough to skate by.

Rollins & Reigns promo on Show and Henry after the big men had beaten 3MB was quality, Rollins took up most of the slack with Ambrose not there.

Del Rio vs Christian is excellent, Dolph vs Big E is fun, Cesaro makes Darren Young look a star and Axel vs Cody is solid. All round a good SD.

Can't wait to watch it now.

Hopefully the change was because they have decided to go with a rematch and not just because they want to feed Brock to a 50 year old guy who works one match a year.

Rather see Brock Vs. Rock II, but Vince is too much of a coward to book Cena Vs. Undertaker apparently.

 

[Dr. Evil]

PTP vs. Real Americans got a 3.5 rating on Raw.

 

[ImWithTeamConan]

Hopefully that means a push for The Primetime Players!

It's ironic that not too long ago, when we were reviewing that list of WWE salaries, that Darren was the lowest paid male superstar. Now he's making history, both WWE history and sports history too.

Kudos to Cesaro and Coulter for putting him over at this crucial time as well. That cannot be forgotten.

IF WWE signed AJ Styles they wouldn't change his name - he is one of the names people who don't watch TNA have actually heard of and might get more attention

I hope you are right, but I would not assume the WWE is above that. At the end of the day, the WWE doesn't seem to give a rat's arse about how popular someone is in another company.

Kerry Von Erich, with one of the most famous "family names" in wrestling, got repackaged as The Texas Tornado in the WWF (that's it, that was his entire name, little to no mention of being a Von Erich at that time).

Terry Funk, was repackaged with a stupid name of Chainsaw Charlie for far too long when he re-entered the WWE.

Ricky Steamboat managed to keep his name for his second WWF run, but after feuding with Ric Flair in one of the best wrestling feuds in history, they made him dress up like a human kite.

Pretty good ratings for a Waffle House fry cook, a vanilla midget, and a male cheerleader.

It's crazy that not only was Ziggler's match with Big E later during the show than the WHC champ's was but he draws in more viewers by a long shot and is more over.......Why not just give him the damn belt back? Since the WHC is a mid card title, Ziggler can feud with Sandow, Rhodes, RVD, Christian, Henry, Big Show, Kingston, and Rey Mysterio...if the story is done in a way where pursuing the title is at the forefront then alignment wouldnt matter. With ADR, they are just running out of stuff for him to do but still shoving him down our throats. ADR doesnt deserve to be a jobber or anything but he shouldn't have so much emphasis on him....regardless of if they need a Mexican draw or not. Samuray Del Sol could easily be the latino draw if he does well in NXT or let him keep his mask.

Either way, I hope they take that title off of ADR soon.

Pencil skirts are still a style option Vicky. I'm just sayin'.
