The General Wrestling Thread

I can see the WWE getting pretty beat with Davey's overall personality really quickly, couple it with his attitude of "I can go be a fireman anytime I want"...and I just don't see a long term fit. Once things get beat for Davey, I can just see him wanting to go do something else. To be fair, the WWE is seemingly embracing the KICKS AND KICKS AND KICKS AND JEW JITZU AND KICKS style a little bit these days.

I can see Eddie being a talent enhancer. He's just kind of bland.

You can mask the lack of personality with some old school tag team gimmick and a mouth piece. But since when does the WWE hide the negatives? They embrace negatives and make them a focal point of characters.

Which is amazingly surreal.

Anyway, you're right, you stick the American Wolves with Heyman, or even Zeb, never let them talk and just snarl in the background and kick people, and you have a cool mid card act in the tag team mix.

That will never happen.

FANTASY BOOKING!

This is how I would introduce the American Wolves.

The Matador guys beat Swagger & Cesaro on RAW, and out of frustration Zeb & Swagger turn on Cesaro. This settles the obvious Cesaro face turn and gets Swagger back in the singles mix.

The next week, the Matador guys beat a jobber team, say 3MB or something. The Wolves do a run in, beat the ever loving shit out of Primo & Epico, and then corner the midget. They then absolutely kill the midget who bounces all over the place and sells like hes dead. They kill 3MB too for good measure. Zeb comes down and cuts a promo putting over his new charges, with dead bodies laying all over the ring.

Then the Wolves have a hot TV feud with the Matador guys. The matches would be tits.

C'mon biss, put me over, that's good stuff, I have the mind for business buddy.

So a thought a friend of mine had on the whole Danielson situation.

Considering that the thought was setting up an H's match with him, they could keep Danielson out of the title picture, but have him win the Royal Rumble. H's gets desperate, and books himself in an Elimination Chamber match for the WWE title, wins it, and goes into WM30 in a title fight with Danielson.

If it was anyone but H's, I would be behind it. It just reeks of him keeping his character in the spotlight.

Daniel Bryan winning the Rumble is 100% on the table from everything i've heard.

Just have to get Davey out of FCW and Past "Wrestling Court" to make it there. Story is good, do we job matadores out? if we do why would the crowd believe in them next month, if we Job the Wolves in the they loose any momentum ... lot of stuff factors in

I think Wolves have to go over in the end, the Matadors are a short term gimmick, too cartoony, they're just there to get the midget bull over anyway. They slide into babyface enhancement.

Lets Say Hogan signs on for match with Cena at mania that includes him being in the Rumble ... who puts hogan out

Hogan can't take that bump so I'll say he'd get knocked out.

Could almost recreate the 1992 rumble (I think that was it) and have Cena be eliminated third, hold Hogans arm and help pull him out and allow Bryan to toss Hogan.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

I don't think Hogan can take an over the top bump at this point.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

I don't think Hogan can take an over the top bump at this point.

Hogan walks like he's got a board attached to his back and legs. There might be a way for Hogan to get over the top, but I have no idea how it would be done.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

He'd have to win like the Iron Sheik in the gimmick battle royal a few years ago. Brother.

[Ravin]

67 brothers in that clip.

Hogan easily would have dropped 100+ but good try Shawn.

 

[s@ppisgod]

At this point, I'm pretty sure Hogan can't even ref a match with that knees/back combination...

New Japan Pro Wrestling star Prince Devitt is teasing that he will be going to WWE soon. He tweeted this weekend:

"I am going to WWE.... To find a new member of #BulletClub.."

Devitt then posted a photoshopped photo of CM Punk with other members of his stable in New Japan.

WWE has been rumored to be interested in Devitt for a while now. The story goes that William Regal showed a tape of Devitt vs. Adrian Neville (the former Pac) to Triple H, leading to WWe signing Neville and being interested in Devitt. As of this summer, Devitt's name was on a list of talents WWE was interested in reaching out to.

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

Devitt does this stuff on twitter all of the time. He sends wacky tweets to all sorts of out of context people with Bullet Club invites. Don't read into it.

Whenever Devitt does a (rare) straight interview, he makes it pretty clear WWE isn't in the cards, at least for now. He likes the Japanese schedule (2 weeks on, 2 weeks off), likes living in Ireland, and doesn't really like the United States all that much. He also makes plenty of money now and is at a point where he is peaking creatively and being booked as a heavyweight.

Why go to WWE and be stuck in NXT jobbing to CJ Parker?
