Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 582

Bianca loses and this company wonders why no one wants to watch

 

So nxt builds up all these cool and fun characters and then once they get to the main show vince crushes them and then complains they don’t have any new superstars

 

I mean the only NXT stars main roster has ever tried to make look good are Charlotte and Finn (and they have up on Finn after he got hurt)

Anyone else who looks good got there on their own (Becky, Bayley, Sasha, Asuka, KO)

 

the shield doesn’t count as nxt? I know they were fcw before but they were on nxt as well weren’t they?

 

Not as the shield

 

Fine, separately haha

 

I mean if you go way back in NXT, the Wyatt family and Rusev were definitely pushed at some point, but they were in NXT before it was a household brand so I don’t think it really counts.

 

That’s fair but when do you think it should count? Also totally forgot shinsuke was in nxt

 

Let’s say when Full Sail started - so 2012

so I’ll include Rollins

so 3 total

 

you could count McIntyre but that’s an unique situation

 

Does Corbin count as someone they pushed?

 

It’s actually funny - I was just thinking that WWE pushes NXT talent that never won a title over those who did

 

Like Elias and Corbin have had more high profile WrestleMania moments than the vast majority of NXT champions haha

 

Because if there's money to be made, Vince will make it by any means

 

I just watched a highlight video of the 2014 royal rumble. Kinda interesting who was competing:

-Cody Rhodes
-Dustin Rhodes
-Jon Moxley
-Brodie Lee
-Jake Hager
-Miro

So cool how the times are changing.

 

Don't forget, Vince thought Big Cass was gonna be a massive star!

 

Watched Santa's Slay last night which stars Goldberg as an evil Santa. Definitely the most entertaining he's ever been.

 

TLC card is HERE

Analytics will eventually be available HERE

I usually try to post these the night before, but I was a little late this month. Feels strange we aren't getting a Tables match or a Chairs match this year, especially when you have a couple already on the card that you could easily slot in there. Also what are the odds that the Inferno match is a cinematic, taped gimmick? Really really high? I didn't even think about that until just now.

 

Uh... just a heads up but you put The Miz in the inferno match not Orton.

 

Haven’t kept up in the last month so who knows where this is going

 

That movie used to be a holiday tradition for my friends and I. The opening scene is outrageous

 

Opening scene was definitely my favorite lol

 

Well... I’ll be watching tonight

 

I saw that and thought it was a late switch haha
