I thought KOTR is supposed to come back? It was my favorite ppv as a kid haha

 

i wouldnt

 

He got dead silence when his entrance music hit to start that match...

Maybe it'll sustain through Backlash, because his roided out look definitely pisses people off. But Randy wont be doing him any favors on the mic...

 

Sheamus wasn't a jobber but he pretty much did the same thing and it did good for him.

 

Resorting to the whole foreign wrestler generating heat gimmick is literally the oldest trick in the book.

 

I mean in my eyes. Hes getting an opportunity, I hope it goes well. The more credible heels that generate more heat than cheers the better. If it doesnt go well, they will pull the plug immidiately. We get wrestling year round. They can't always do Orton/AJ or Orton/KO. I like that they are doing this. It was surprising.

 

It got very salty in here.

 

Yeah cause it WORKS

 

The weirdest thing about the foreigner gimmick is that they basically had two guys do it in one night.

Maybe three if you count Davari.

 

I think this might be my fave Bullet Club shirt yet.

 

I'd like it more if it were someone that actually had a chance to win...

 

Yup. At least it's different even if it's filler. It's kind of the same thing they did with Dolph last year.

 

Simon Gotch is now going by Simon Grimm.

 

i think its the same as ellsworth. if you want to sell it to me as something entertaining for a month or so, fine. And that's the thing, i think this could be somewhat entertaining for a few weeks. Just overall booking wise it's not realistic.

 

So he runs a small program with Orton, who could make even me look good in the ring. He loses very clean. Then we get someone who can compete in the midcard for a while and see what he does there. Sounds good to me man.

 

So do you think they are pushing Jinder at all? Or he is he just a prop...

 

Orton isn't good at making people look like competent wrestlers. His matches are all exactly the same.

 

That's why I chuckled through that cheap heat mania episode where he kept asking wrestlers about how good he is and they were like uhhh...

 

Yeah they are all exactly the same sure. But he doesnt fuck anything up.

 

The whole Orton in the family was cool. Creative is so stupid sometimes. That gimmick could have been ridden out for at least a year which would have given Bray a nice title run in the process.

Now we have bitch ass babyface Orton.

 

Yeah I think this is a chance at a push

 

Best thing would probably be a loss by DQ then.

 

All Orton does actually is make other wrestlers look competent haha.

 

An orton beef between jersey and Henry is slowly heating up

 

Hahahaha
