Wrestling Thread 7: FTR Baldhausen • Page 1160

I'll do 3 for each

Tag team:
1. FTR
2. The Usos
3. The Acclaimed

Faction:
1. The Bloodline
2. Blackpool Combat Club
3. House of Black (they didn't get to do too much but they are still cool as fuck)

 

Honorable mention to the Creed Brothers and Pretty Deadly tho

 

had a blast at ROH last weekend.
next road trip: royal rumble

 

Brock vs Gunther is listed internally for Wrestlemania

 

Coulda had Brock v Keith Lee

 

If they give them time, mannnnnnnnnnnn, that's gonna slap. Literally. Just worried about a Brock squash

 

I think even a sprint like Brock/Goldberg would be awesome

 

Over/under on the number of chops Brock is willing to take?

 

Regal has come to terms on his new WWE deal.


He will be a VP

 

That’s pretty fucking awesome

 

Taking that with a grain of salt since there's only one site "reporting" that.

 

That’s awesome. A top position, working with his son. Bet he can’t wait to start… again haha

 

In case some of you missed this earlier ^

 

The Acclaimed / FTR

Faction: BCC / House of Black (so cool!) /

 

FTR and The Acclaimed for Tag of the year.

Bloodline is faction of the year. BCC might be second, but they also kinda fell apart towards the end

 

Riddle is off tv because he failed a drug test and is going to rehab

 

That tracks and also is unfortunate

 

I guess it’s his second failed test as of late. Hope he gets the help he needs

 

Guess the RKO isn’t the only thing he’s learnt from Randy, huh?

In all seriousness, hope he gets some help and comes back stronger. Whilst his character is annoying as fuck sometimes, he’s a great fucker wrestler.

 

FTR is tag team of the year and I dont even think anyone else can be listed top 10. A close 11th is The Acclaimed, with the Usos in 12th.

Dax Harwood has been in 16 matches of 4*+ or higher this year, including three 5* matches as a tag team, two of which with were the Briscoes, and it seems undeniable that this week he'll get both his 17th 4*+ match, and I'd be stunned if they dont also get a >5* match....and the first ever non-Bucks >5* tag match.

I mean, in kayfabe its not even close, Bloodline is heads and tails above them...and it kinda feels like the faction that formed and fizzled out in 6 months probably shouldnt take it over Bloodline, who found new life as BCC was fading.
