Thing about Ember Moon not being able to talk is her cool look would perfectly serve a mostly silent character, so it's doubly pointless to make her do generic promos.

This is WWE , everyone has to give promos

 

[Beefy]

Ember Moon's character is like two people worked on it. Neither could decide which they liked best so they stuck the spooky shit with the weird happy bouncy anime girl together.

I think this is an anime.

 

[Pikma]

The problem with NXT right now is that no matter how good or bad the writing is most of the roster fucking sucks at cutting promos. I bet that's why Roode is the champ

 

[HashtagLapsed]

It is still pretty hard to believe WWE botched La Sombra. I mean, you'd have to try pretty hard to fuck it up.

A stripper gimmick and his inability to speak english at all seem more than enough

 

[excelsiorlef]

I don't even want to know what they said.

Something to the effect of what kind of name is Ho Ho. Did his parents really like Christmas?

They couldn't see past "Handsome Latino" and thought he had to be a squeaky babyface.

 

[HashtagLapsed]

I think the first mistake was bringing him in as a babyface, but yeah. Its just seriously disappointing.

What happened to him starting a faction in NXT? Didn't Rush mention that?

I'm convinced they don't know who they signed

He is Latino , they can't book Latino wrestlers to saves their lives.

Pretty much. If they just committed to her Mortal Kombat looking gimmick and had her not say much, she would probably be fine

They tried that tonight with her promo with Regal... she still fucked it up.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That's terribly.

 

[Foggy]

Lord knows what they'll do to Tommy End or Alistair Blackchurchdethfire or whatever he's going to be called

I think baby face Andrade could of worked because it's pretty easy to get over at Full Sail if you wrestle well. They just made the mistake of having him go up against fan favorite jobber heel Tye Dillinger in his first two matches and Full Sail got pissed

 

[DMczaf]

She had an awkward line to recite. That's not trying "mostly silent".

These things take time but also...

Spoiler

plans can change

, so who knows

 

[excelsiorlef]

She had an awkward line to recite. That's not trying "mostly silent".

But all she said was I'm winning and the NXT Women's Division is going to enter a new phase...

It was way shorter and more in gimmicm attempting then her usual aww shucks bullshit...

It was something at least... I mean the reality is this woman is a charisma blackhole

 

[RBH]

Which one is Ninja Scooter, Guzim, and DM?

 

[reptilescorpio]

Was going to be tough to make him go babyface after he got so over being a heel. Completely changing someone takes a lot of time and willpower.

 

[Rimfya]

One of the great modern day acts of WWE Synergy is managing to have Percy Watson, David Ortunga and Byron Saxton all play the same character.

 

[Beefy]

Damn that Shadow of War game play.

 

[Bluekaveli]

HoHo Lun aka Heroman is in nxt this week?

Man I told you you would make it!

So I guess that explains how crabbiness. Because he sucks.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Damn that Shadow of War game play.

I know right. They add it to another level.

 

[Zach]

1.) My son, ladyfriend, and I all enjoyed the hour or two of Breath of the Wild we just played. None of us have been grabbed by a Zelda before, and we all want to come back. :O

2.) Check that av, Biggest-Geek-Ever.

 

[Toki767]

Damn that Shadow of War game play.

I feel like the visuals are severely lacking for some reason.

Though I guess maybe that's cause I just finished Horizon and that looks insane.

 

[shanafan]

It's still insane to me that many people watch RAW live.

Honesty, watching Fastlane, then Raw, and then Smackdown wasn't difficult or soul-sucking at all.

People binge watch Netflix shows, so what's the difference?

[Beefy]

Yeah, first one got boring way quick.

Horizon is different league! But can't be playing that all year.

 

[SallyIsNow]

It's sports entertainment you mark.

 

[Rimfya]

Ember is great in ring, boring out of it.

Kay/Royce are ordinary in ring, cringe out of it.

Why is she saying "a new phase"? Because her name is Moon?
"I'm Stone Cold Steve Austin and it's about to get chilly! Stay cool!".

They're like Australian LayCool.

They are solid out of the ring.

i can see where they were going with fang mcfrost

Yes and because her wolfie gothic look and the giant moon as her entrance graphic too. Like it's not illogical she just can't deliver it.

 

[Zach]

I'm sure you can, Data West.

 

[slightconfuse]

 

[Beefy]

I'm sure you can, Data West.

What's up with Bayley's jaw?

 

[Zach]

I'm about to watch Dusty Rhodes wrestle in 2007.

What's up with Bayley's jaw?

I don't know. It's part of her face?

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

I don't know. It's part of her face?

Have fun.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Looks like the same gimmick he is doing now. I CAN'T SPOT THE DIFFERENCE

 

[Rimfya]

Is all Authors of Pain merch going to be tough riffs on classic literature?

I hope so.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Friendship is OVER.

You motha........



I'll catch you on the other side

 

[Zach]

Cody Rhodes saving his papa from more abuse. :')

 

[SallyIsNow]

DM is like 50 right?

 

[sf2fanatic]

Seph, i want a backstage street fight with DM on the next GWf PPV

 

[Zach]

Man. Batista vs. Kane vs. Khali. Oof.

 

[RBH]

Billie Kay and Peyton Royce are A-OK with me.

 

[The Strokes]

Man. Batista vs. Kane vs. Khali. Oof.

Khali is great.

Spoiler

Really

Spoiler

Nah, not really

 

[Zach]

I'm sad that he wears billowing pants so I can't fully appreciate those stick legs.
