AtariLegend Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) Sydal was in Meltzer's favorite tag team with Ricochet in NJPW. Their was a big furor over it last month when he claimed he was in Hawaii due to visa issues. He's obviously done in NJPW now. Pretty big screw up. Dave Finlay (Fit Finlay's son) for those unaware got his spot now. Edited October 26, 2016 by AtariLegend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he's the young boy of the Bullet Club. Got injured though in April I while managing Omega and The Bucks. It was during a spot, he hasn't been seen since.

axlslash Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Rock solid impact last night. Easily my favorite wrestling show of the week this week. The Sandow heel turn is being handled pretty poorly, but that's my only complaint. Treat or Delete was wonderful, Rockstar Spud getting Decay into Team X Gold was great (albeit that TXG is a weird thing to begin with), and I'm loving what they're doing with the Cody/Miracle/Edwards/Lashley program. Also loving the Sutter/Allie/Laurel program (Allie, fka Cherry Bomb, is married to Sutter, fka Pepper Parks, in real life). Cant believe this is the show, out of all of them, that's struggling to survive. The next set of taping have been postponed, as has Total Nonstop Deletion. They're in deep if they can't produce TND by December, as they've only taped enough material to get them through their second-to-last TV slot of the year. So much talent on that roster, it'd a shame to see where they are right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner55 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Lol. Demolition is in town for comic con. They were on local news this morning and they kept pushing how they are the longest reigning tag Champs in history. One of them did mention new Day closing in on their record, but then added "Yeah but everyone needs to keep in mind that our record is 1 single reign. We were still tag team champions after that reign a few times so to top our total time as champions is probably not going to happen." Sounded a little bitter as they conveniently pointed that out.

AtariLegend Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 They're the longest reigning tag champs of any of the current belts. London and Kendrick are the 2nd longest in history technically now. If you're wondering "what is he talking about?" while reading this. Well during the stupid rebranding/re-introducing different championships every few years era, they actually got rid of the original tag team championship and it's lineage. The one dating back to the 1971 in 2010 on a random RAW. Basically a 40 year history gone, because of re branding and repeatedly unifying belts, then making new ones. http://www.wwe.com/classics/titlehistory/worldtagteam Logic.

Apparently Vince wants Bayley and Charlotte next, so here's hoping Bayley takes the belt. Vince has a hard on for Charlotte but she's seriously gotta get out of the title picture for a bit. Drop to Bayley, Bayley vs Sasha at Mania. Or since it's Vince, triple threat women's title at Mania. Which, I think we're all getting sick of seeing.

It's more than likely since they gotta make room for the Smackdown women's match as well during the show. The good thing is they've been there, done that, so they know how to structure and execute it well. The one this year with Sasha, Charlotte and Becky was pretty good after all.

username Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 HIAC wasn't bad at all. But commentary makes it SO unwatchable. I miss good old JR actually ADDING something to a match rather than detracting from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLegend Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Kota Ibushi worked an NXT house show match last night. So what if it's a pay-per-appearance deal and he won't actually sign a contract. Why would you be pushing Brian Kendrick in 2016 when you can get Ibushi to show up for the night or ask Mascara Dorada who they do have under contract to fly in? If it is a triple threat women's match at mania, it'll probably be Dana vs. Nia Jax vs. Charlotte, with Dana being the babyface. Please Vince, just sell the company to Bushiroad or fire all the writters and hire Jado/Gedo as bookers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best show in the industry today, for my money. LU is great as well, but only having one hour severely limits their storytelling. TNA's roster deserves better than this nonsense.

Let's be honest. Can you imagine Mahabali Shera or Aiden O'Shea in NXT? There are people on that roster that make Jinder Mahal look like a star. Can you imagine a Lashley return to WWE going well? Sure there's Jeff Hardy, but giving his track record... his stock has dropped. That'd leave Matt to get DELETE chants going on, but actually wrestling a match?

I can't imagine most of the roster working in WWE, but that doesn't mean they aren't high quality. Miracle, EC3, Eli Drake, the Hardys, Lashley, Moose, Decay, DJ Zema Ion, most of the X Division... The booking isn't always great, but the guys can work. Granted Vince and co. wouldn't know what to do with them, but that's why I want someone like Billy to take over rather than liquidating to WWE.

axlslash Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 The WWE will launch 205 Live, a weekly Tuesday night cruiser weight show, after the Nov 29 episode of Talking Smack. Hope they get them off Raw, where they have a weekly meaningless 6-man tag match with one stupid repetitive feud that no one cares about, and let's hem thrive like they did on the CWC. And the commentary will be Mauro and Graves, which is excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
