Wrestling Thread 7: FTR Baldhausen • Page 484

Roddy is the one wrestler whose popularity completely perplexes me. I don't think I've ever been blown away by his work and he needs literally anyone else as a mouth piece.

 

he falls into the ricochet category of stellar in ring but the drizzling shits at literally everything else

 

I remember seeing him with Cole at an ROH show in maybe 2014 and he was just so overshadowed by that charisma.

 

Roddy shouldn’t be allowed near a mic by himself but he’s one of the few wrestlers I always look forward to seeing in the ring. He’s amazing.

 

He’d fit perfectly for the ROH reboot.

 

Roddy definitely benefits from a mouth piece (he got by fine on his own as PWG champ) but he is easily in my personal top 5 for in-ring work right now.

 

Roddy is one of the cleanest workers i’ve ever seen. Everything he does in ring looks literally perfect.

 

Just put him back with the Undisputed Era where he belongs

 

Guess the rumors were wrong. Good. Now please do a Larry Sweeney episode.

 

I definitely feel like they have plenty of interesting topics to choose from. I could see episodes on Chyna, Tammy Sytch, Scott Hall, the myriad of sexual assault allegations that riddled (no pun intended) the UK/Indie scene, Rob Feinstein, the gross sexist/racist history of the industry, etc.

 

Chyna's people didn't want to work with the Dark Side guys due to money or something. Vice did a separate doc unrelated to Dark Side on Chyna last year.

 

Ah weird, somehow I missed this. Thanks for the heads up!

 

Back to slowly getting through 95/96 Nitros.

It's such a stark contrast of how lame Kevin Sullivan's Dungeon Of Doom is with how rad as fuck Kevin Sullivan's Army Of Darkness was a decade earlier.

 

This was posted on Reddit, not sure if anyone here is trying to go to Forbidden Door but

 

Oh wow

• Stu Grayson was removed from the AEW roster page, and Wrestling Observer notes “when people are removed, they are basically gone. The site also says “word going around is that his contract expired and the two sides didn’t come to terms on a new deal.”

 

Got one of those Ringleaders surveys about a new AEW show. First I think I've heard about this?

 

no i need this to be wrong, i love stu!!! :(

 

AEW 24/7

 

Sucks about Stu. Wish they would have done more with SSB after they rebounded from how shitty the Dark Order stuff was in the very beginning. I think Uno has an official office job producing their video game streaming content as well as being signed as a wrestler so he's definitely sticking around for now.

 

Gimme Piper Niven and Nikki Cross please

 

this graphic is horrible (picture is cut off in the embed)

 

Gotta love that Legally Distinct Version of Joey Janela's Spring Break show name.

 

He's the perfect second singles guy for a stable because he can 100% go in the ring, but god help you if you need him to front the thing. His role in UE, his role in Diamond Mine, perfect.
