Wrestling Thread 5: FKA The Viking Experience • Page 150

So KO posted this and I don't know if it means anything but my heart is racing and I'm typing in run-on sentences and this is the shit I dream about.

 

This might kinda bum me out. Like, obviously it’s fire, but is Kevin Owens a better leader than Adam Cole? Because KO being involved diminishes Cole in my mind.

 

It would be awesome if it happened and I think it would help Cole get more attention from the casual fans on the main roster. Cole can turn on KO somewhere down the road and then they can have the best matches ever

 

I suppose if UE showed up on Smackdown, Cole wouldn’t be in the title picture anyway so maybe they could make it work

 

It would be cool if they bring in undisputed to write him off as kevs revenge for taking the title off him haha

 

@Ruethless just doesn’t understand basic booking principles.

 

I don’t think KO would work in TUE. They kinda are the exact opposite of his character.

 

Joey Ryan turned down both AEW and WWE to stay in the indies

 

Observer is reporting DON did 98k buys

 

can't wait for Goldberg to win the 24/7 title on Tuesday

 

Taker beats him and then loses it by accidentally wandering into the firefly funhouse lol

 

The Kiss shirt was our biggest hint all along that he wasn’t doing a real farewell haha

 

Weirdly smart. With so many people going exclusive, he can work a lot of places and probably up his rate.

Counterpoint: he got over as Big O in about 30 seconds.

The promo style and approach of TUE matches his PWG work.

 

MVP is on E&C today and it's very good although the bulk of it is about his experience as a convicted felon. dude has a ton of perspective.

 

The biggest story involved Zayn bringing up AEW during a promo. This was supposed to be part of the show but I have no idea why. The idea was apparently that it makes Raw edgy because somebody said something they wouldn’t be allowed to say. To get it over more, on the YouTube replay of the segment they edited it out. The key is that there is a 15 second delay before something hits television and that is enough time to edit it out. In addition, it was left in the Hulu replay, which is a heavily post-edited version of the show. Plus, two company sources confirmed the line was scripted. That said, within the company, many if not most were told otherwise and when Zayn gave the line, Vince McMahon did act like he was freaking out. But it wasn’t edited off the show. Since the buck stops with him, either it was miscommunication (which is what we were told) or an attempt to work everyone (a dangerous situation that leads to mistrust and copies the silliness that was WCW at the end).

 

kind of where i felt this was going, you can't tie joey ryan down. plus i found it way too hard to believe that he was going to turn down aew for nxt.

 

omg both of them together

 

Lol

 

ok

 

Need a Seth one that’s just a game of thrones box set.
