Any news when Finn or Joe will finally get moved to the main roster? Is Sami Zayn going back to the main roster full time?
 
I'd wager Sami will be moving up the night after Wrestlemania. His match at NXT Dallas seems like the perfect sendoff.
 
I'm watching LU for the first time. Why is it filmed like it has an Instagram filter on it? Is that Shao Khan sitting up the stairs?

Whoever this Cage guy is is awesome.

You don't know anything about the concept of the show? It's a dark and gritty tv show that revolves around a wrestling show with fantastical elements and full tv series style storylines. The wrestlers are playing over the top versions of themselves or new characters for it.

Imagine a show like Arrow or The Flash but wrestling as the main focal point than super heroes.

As for production value..It's a tv show on Rey Network that is owned by Robert Rodriquez and he's an executive producer, so don't expect big budget quality.

Nope. Thanks for filling me in though. Never really looked into it. I only saw the last 35 minutes of it but I enjoyed what I saw.

Lucha Underground is like a gritty, fantastical, superhero show with wrestling and the backstage segments are shot like a soap almost. Characters can die and it's an alternate universe from ours.
 
Sami Zayn vs Samoa Joe was so good, so match II happens next week!?
 
Rey Mysterio Jr's role in Lucha Underground is awesome, He seems to be in great shape than he has been for a couple of years and the story he's involved in is amazing!

He may not be in LU for very long if the latest rumors are true.
 
I'd love for the Cruiserweight title to come back. Who in WWE could fall in that category?

Was RVD ever booked as a heel?

He was early in ECW, but the fans loved his arrogant, pot smoking martial artist character so much, he was forced into faceness.

Most or all of season 2 is probably already filmed, IF he did join this tournament it'd only be for a few weeks unless wwe offers him a new contract, which I doubt.

Rey would be back in AAA or in time before season 3 starts filming.
 
The rumor is that Rey feels AAA has shady business practices, whatever that may mean.

Reports are that Samoa Joe and Sami Zayn - along with Bayley and Enzo & Cass - will all be promoted to be the main roster shortly after WrestleMania, perhaps as soon as the Raw after for some. Finn Balor is supposedly set to remain as the top guy on NXT for the time being.
 
Alex Riley cosplaying Triple H?

Who did that Deonna woman tick off to get murdered by Asuka twice.
Deonna wasn't good on the mic.

Sami Zayn could drown puppies on a episode of NXT and I would still probably pop for him. The guy is just so darn likable.


Tye Dillinger went over :wow:

Two guys that live for the hot tag

I love Samoa Joe's powerslams.

His name has been tossed around as a potential opponent for the Undertaker at WM. Meltzer said the match is set but the opponent is not on the active roster right now. Last night he clarified that includes injured guys like Orton, Cena, Sting or NXT people.

So that makes the list really small.....potential (and realistic) candidates I can think of are Rock, Rey or possible even Nakumura. He's technically not on the active roster right now and was supposed to be fast tracked to the main roster from NXT last I read.
 
Rey vs Taker would have been interesting 5 or 10 years ago, I still want Sting vs Undertaker if it's a retirement match have for both of them.

I missed Orton at the Rumble since he was always good for a flurry of RKO's in the Rumble match.

It won't be the Rock. He's not going to wrestle. He's going to do whatever he's going to do at WM 32 that won't get him hurt.

It makes no sense for him to be at WrestleMania 32 right now. He's not going into the WWE Hall of Fame or having a match, so why is he there?
 
I don't think the main WWE Universe knows who Nakamura is so I doubt he's going to be the one facing Taker.

I don't see it being Rey either as he has an exhibition match with Kurt Angle a few weeks before.

It won't be Batista either as I doubt Marvel and James Gunn wants him to compete while he's playing Drax again.

Damn I miss the King of the Ring, I just had a KOTR tournament in the wwe2k16 video game and it was pretty fun, I made Samoa Joe into King Joe!
 
If Taker doesn't want to retire yet then fine, let him have his WM match but it doesn't need to be a singles match anymore. After the streak, any win or loss or gets is meh unless it was a tag team match that could still give someone a big rub or even put over.

Kane and Undertaker vs New Day for the tag titles or Sting and Undertaker vs League of Nations...Okay I have no clue but a singles match with him at mania just doesn't interest me anymore and now that the streak is over hen might of him put him in a tag or triple threat or even the damn Andre battle royal
