2019 Pro Wrestling thread

I simply cannot take Kofi seriously while Big E is making faces and gyrating the way he does in the background. Its shark jumping for me.

 

Would love to see Velveteen Dream get promoted and team with Tyler Breeze. Who knows when Fandango will be back.

 

Leave The Dream in NXT til Summerslam, and then call him up and push the hell out of him. No need to team him up with anybody when he finally gets the big league call up.

 

I'm hoping that Kurt Angle does this to Corbin on Sunday.

 

There was no need to team Ricochet and Black with anyone, and they did that anyway.

 

By gawd as my witness...

 

Yes - I get that, too. And, I disagree with the WWE for doing that. However, I would think the WWE are a bit higher on The Dream than both those guys.

 

Bigger on him than they are on one guy who held the NXT title and another who was the NXT North American title? I think long-term they might be bigger on Dream, but right now, I'd say they had bigger plans for those two when they were called up.

I hope they keep Dream on his own, and I hope they break up Ricochet and Black soon, but right now all three of them could get lost on the main roster. Honestly, if AEW leads to the main roster thinning some, it could be great for those guys.

 

One thing to remember is that Ricochet is 30-years-old, Aleister Black is 33-years-old and Velveteen Dream is only 23-years-old. One big reason that those two have been more decorated than Dream. In my opinion, at least. The WWE want to take their time with Dream since he's less experienced.

 

I get that. But Ricochet has probably 10-15 years left in him, esp. if he can develop a less aerial style like Jericho did. Black could go another 15 easily with his move-set. It's not like those guys are relatively shorter-term indy signings like Samoa Joe and Styles, who were in their late 30s when WWE finally signed them. Richochet and Black could lead the company for a long time, and either could step into big roles in the next year or two easily.

I still worry about how Dream's character will play when they bring him up. Afraid he'll be one of those guys who NXT fans love but never catches on with bigger crowds. I hope they keep him down in NXT for a long run with th NXT title before they bring him up. Let him learn how to be the top guy down there.

 

Interesting bit of Royal family history: My Aunt Edna dated Wahoo McDaniel back in the 1970s or '80s. In hindsight, I think it was more likely that they just hooked up when he was in Oklahoma City rather than any actual dating.
