this sounds like something a 6th grader would come up with in a "create your own inspirational quote" creative writing exercise.



vince, you're a dumb cunt.
 
I wonder if WWE will grab Metalik one of these days to try and make him their next Rey. But I think someone mentioned the guy can't speak any English? That's probably gonna hold him back a lot.

WWE are always trying to find a way to sell more masks.

They already have Kalisto, but they've never used him.

So why would they use Metalik?

When did the crowd really start turning and boo'ing Bayley. Her segments are hilarious now.

The kendo stick match and losing in San Jose were the genesis of the really bad reactions.


Can't wait till Vince sees him. :/

This goes right next to "philanthropy is the future of marketing"

Hey dude, it's the way brands r going 2 win

Hiroshima in particular is looking real jacked baby
 
How many of the myc women are going to nxt? It was weird hearing them say this was what they were working for for 16 years just to go back to obscurity
 
I thought they did try giving Kalisto a push when they gave him the US belt.

They did try to push Kalisto

then he did the lucha thing

His push died way before the Lucha thing. Maybe the Lucha thing didn't help him. But putting him in a shit feud with Corbin where he looked like a loser didn't help either.

They have no concept of how to book lucha guys.

Disagree. The Kobe and Fukushima shows are thoroughly uninteresting. The Hiroshima show and KOPW should be great though.

The Heavyweight tag booking is so fucking lazy. But that's par for the course I guess.

these will all probably be amazing.

Metalik can't really speak English at all and hasn't improved he was on Up Up Down Down and Sin Cara (Hunico) had to translate everything. The only good thing Metalik has going is that they don't use him too much on TV so they don't job him out on RAW. If he's losing on RAW they have given up on him.

Kalisto gave up dude's out of shape and switching to trunks doesn't help.
 

orioto

Good Art™
I see that fatal four way is seen as amazing on the net. Some say the best ever lol.. Damn..
Most overrated match ever.

Problem was. The match was super exciting for 10 minutes, then it died after lesnar left, completely. And they did the super badass hardcore segment first, but then the in ring stuff was boring, slow and dead. They just spammed finishers one after the other in lines, there was no actual wrestling here...
 
So what are the rumors for the No Mercy card?

Edit: Thanks for the replies on Metalik too. I like the guy and think he should be used more but not knowing how to speak English is probably gonna hold him back there.

Dude just doesn't know when to quit.

"Succeeding" lol
I'm still in a way shocked that in like a week Corbin went from MITB briefcase carrier who seemed like he'd succeed whenever he would cash in to no briefcase, being beaten by one AA by Cena in a week where fucking Jinder even kicked out of one to having heat backstage and probably being done with doing anything big there.
