To be fair this talent grab is the biggest thing to happen in some time. People are estatic at the chance to actually get excited about WWE.
For that purpose absolutely, but considering their shitty main roster it's still questionable. Especially for an extended time. Zayn should really also no longer be there.
If they don#t fuck it up, which they most likely will. And don't forget about neutering their styles.
I think they need to get NXT off of Hulu and onto the WWE Network only ASAP. I think they lose a fair amount of subs because of it.
Honestly; if they don't clear Bryan for the Rumble, then he's probably not coming back. With Bryan you can have a pretty decent WM (assuming Orton, Cena, Rock, Cesaro, Rollins are all out with injury)
WWE WHC: Daniel Bryan (Wins Title Shot at Fast Lane) vs Brock Lesnar (RR Winner)
The end of the Authority: Roman Reigns vs HHH
Stipulation: HHH wins, Reigns can only get title shots via MitB or RR, if Reigns wins, no more Authority
The Ultimate PrizeFight: Kevin Owens vs Undertaker
Faction vs Faction: The Balor Club (Balor, Nakamura, Gallows, Anderson) vs the Wyatt Family (Bray, Luke, Rowan, Braun)
IC Title Match: Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho
US Title Match: ADR vs Sami Zayn
TMNT 2 Promotional Match: Neville, Stephen Amell, and Ryback vs Sheamus, Barrett, and Rusev
Tag Team Championship Match: The New Day vs Gable and Jordan (or someone here)

He walked a fine line after making those comments imo.
Mabel was fired and brought back many times after being unsafe and that's because he just did as he was told.
show me.
The only video I can find has been muted because of copyrights, and the comments say they understood 40% of it
I'm legit surprised Mabel never killed anyone. Same with Yokozuna later in his career, he was legit sitting on people.
broken english is just as bad as no english. in fact, it might be worse, because there's the potential there for the funaki "lol he talks funny" japanese stereotype gimmick
Eh Itami was fine, even if he got savaged by Owens.

Apparently he speaks English, French, Polish, and a bit of German

Mabel didn't kill anyone but he altered careers.
Nash eventually had to have a vertebrae fusion.
And Taker's orbital injury caused him pain for years and messed up his vision a little.
NXT != RAW
If he can't speak english perfectly on RAW and they don't give him Heyman, he's done. WWE thinks we're too dumb to understand a feud if both wrestlers aren't explaining every single detail of why they hate eachother, multiple time per show

Smith Johns is quite the opponent. He's been getting over with this sold out crowd.

Either you like to have fun or you're a lunatic, it's one or the other
In case anyone missed it earlier, we know Biff Busick's WWE name.

HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING! HE'S CRAZY! HE JUST DOES STUFF! WHAT A HOTHEAD! HE CAN'T BE ON TALKSHOWS, HE'S A LUNATIC!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
You know Paul's serious because he's got his giant car phone
"Is it fake?"
"Is it about ratings?"
"Is it entertainment?"
"Did your quads bust up again?"
"You look like Oz, are you related?"
Fromm all accounts he speaks better English than kenta.

I'm always really surprised to see how wresting fans online seem to think any indy super star can directly be main eventer in WWE, like styles winning the RR for exemple... What's the percentage of the RAW audience that knows anything about him ? You can't avoid acknowledging the wrestling world for decades then suddenly have Styles debuting and be all "OMG IT'S AJ STYLES OMG, DO YOU BELIEVE IT!!!"
I mean they can sometime succeed with having someone new debuting as if he was already super huge, but you don't have an unknown super star win the Rumble like that.. Except if that's the angle.
And Nakamura.. Come on, i have to admit i don't know japan wrestling that much, and i discovered him in the Wrestle Kingdom for the first time. But objectively, he lacks everything to be marketable in the wwe.. everything. He's old, not muscular, super weird, asian, has a really fabulous gesture.. Sure he seems to be an incredible wrestler, but i mean.. How do you deal with him for an American mainstream audience honestly ?
Now in NXT it's super different obviously, as people know him there. But i was reading that 411 mania column where the journalist said "why not have lesnar against nakamura as WM main event" seriously..

KENTA more or less started from scratch learning English when he signed with WWE. Asuka spoke a little more but is still undoubtedly knee deep in English lessons since she started.
Given people like JR who don't speak a word of Japanese had conversations with Nakamura around WK9, he must speak enough to get by.
Friend I used to watch Florida Championship Wrestling with Kevin Sullivan v Ed the Bull Gantner , Rock and Roll Express v the Fantastics, and Horsemen in the Arn and Ole days.
My first live event was like Kevin Sullivan vs Dusty Rhodes , and the Steiners vs Raging Bull Manny Fernandez and Rick Rude
You are all good.
AJ is not a good example of an "indie star", he was in TNA for a decade with most of that time having national TV. A much larger percentage of WWE fans would know him than those that would know say Kevin Owens pre-WWE, and the Rumble is in Orlando where Impact was based for years.
