May Wrasslin' |OT| Dontaku about Legit Shook

So not worth it
He'd be a better fit for DDT.

He could join Homoiro Clover Z and become 'Danshoku Bo'.

Perfect.

So TNA records the second Impact show after the live airing right? If Impact goes to 9, does that mean the second show is taped from somewhere past 11PM to 1AM now?

How is that even going to work?
 
Glad to see someone else enjoyed that - I really dig Fontaine's recent gimmick & character, he could be a great fit for CHIKARA (if they didn't already have a perfect gentleman waiting in the wings, namely, Mr. Jervis Cottonbelly). Veda's video is great, too; "I am a delicate frigging flower of a woman!".

I'm really pleased to see how well the mid-west promotions like AIW & AAW are doing this year - there seems to be a lot more buzz about both promotions, within the online indy wrestling community at least.

I love Fontaine's gentlemen gimmick, so much better then the sleazy gimmick he was doing. Veda vs Fontaine is going to be all sorts of awesome!

I think you BOnatics, you BOmaniacs, you BOnetic Freaks need to go and create a |BO-T| where you can be free to out live out your poor, unfortunate BOllusions without people like me BOing you away with the truth; Bo Dallas is awful, was awful and always will be awful. I don't know if you're all just feigning adoration because the truth is too much to bear, or if, like bean breath, you've all just finally cracked under the great mental strain of viewing and trying to make sense of WWE programming while being in possession of even a moderately sized IQ, but it has to STOP before it overtakes us all. The line is drawn, people, this is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and BOlieve whatever you want to BOlieve. You take the red pill - you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

I made the Bo topic. I took one for the team. I'm a BOnetic freak. I'm buying the XBOne. All in Dallas-style.

Real talk, god damn he's the worst and this NXT talk makes me feel REALLY bad for him as a person because that's got to bother him. But if he's a better heel...but him being a straight up heel would make me hate him less! Aaah! What to do about Bo?

Worst part is that Shinsuke Nakamura is a fan of Bo Dallas' work :(

Real talk, I just can't seem to figure out WHY they are pushing him like they are. He is clearly nowhere near ready to be on TV, yet they put him on there. Big Show said in the Rosenberg interview he looked alot like that Jacob guy from Twilight so maybe that's why. But he's not even good looking, he has a creepy smile, greasy hair and something about his face seems... off (as in proportions or something, can't quite put my finger on it).

But he's not super talented in the ring (he's not as bad as some, but nowhere near as good as alot of others in developmental) and he's no great mic worker either. He's young, awkward and doesn't appear to have a distinct personality. So why push him over the other workers like this?

Is it his heritage, is he just really committed backstage and impressing the trainers?

He should have a finisher thats just a fury of elbows to the head. Throwing BOs.

But, yeah, hes only 22 so we are the unfortunate witnesses to his shitty awkward learning period. He should be in a high school auditorium right now, but the WWE has decided that internationally broadcasted television is the right place for him, somehow.

He's 23, same age as Adam Cole, there's no excuse to be THAT bad.

Yeah, he should be in a high school auditorium cleaning it as a janitor. He stinks and he has a terrible look. A couple years on the Indies won't fix him, nothing can fix him.

He's the guy Ryback used to murder. He's the guy Ryder should laugh at and squash on Sunday Night Heat. He's the guy that should be a personal assistant's personal assistant.

That NXT Title should be put on guys that actually have a real future and need the hype before they hit the main roster.

Wow, Wikipedia investigation has revealed he has been signed and wrestling for close to 5 fucking years. Also, everyone referring to his finisher as a belly-to-belly suplex is wrong. Its the Bo Dazzler

THE DAZZLER IS BRYAN'S! BACK OFF!

Daniel Bryan owns The Dazzler monicker, don't make it about Bo. Just don't. This is where I draw the line with the Bo shenanigans.

What really blows my mind about Adam Cole is that, not only is he already crazy good at just 23 years old, but that he was trained by this guy;

And this guy;

hGAza4M.jpg

First, wow @ Cole being 23. Bright future ahead of him if he takes care of himself, VERY bright. That's awesome.

Second, that fucking picture is the best worst photo anyone could take ahaofhidkdfmdasnpa so good

The higher ups at the WWE do think he's that guy though, it's fucking ridiculous given he doesn't get positive fan reaction, he doesn't look good in the ring, and he doesn't look good period. At the same time they'll release Bateman who's an attractive, funny, charismatic face who's competent in the ring and can get positive fan feedback, he was everything that they think Bo is however Bateman isn't the favourite son of a WWE road agent.

There are currently 317 posts in this thread that contain "Bo" He has his own thread on NeoGAF. I think we just have to accept that Bo Dallas is the future!

Yeah, I'm still salty about Bateman. He had a great look, was very comfortable on the mic and doing skits, and he was a solid wrestler. The fact that they NEVER did anything with him is a fucking travesty. Him and Bryan were GOLD on old NXT together.

Reading this is Dallas a face or a heel? Also seems like NXT has created there own dominate heel group as well.

So, according to the dirtsheets there are quite a few releases coming soon. Apparently they are gonna cut alot of people like Bateman who have been in developmental for years, but who they feel are still not ready to be called up to the main roster, like they did with Bateman.

Bring em on. I'm fine with releases because pro wrestlers on the midcard and lower need to be paid more, and the business has some SERIOUS bloat. Cut nothing-performers, pay the existing performers a bit more, make life better.

This is kind of cool, WWE re-imagines some of their PPV matches as summer blockbuster posters

http://t.co/s4BfypguXS

The positioning of Punk's icon is awkward. Looks like someone's got him by his lightning bolt.

Love the idea of movie posters for famous PPVs, but the execution here is weak. Need to learn Photoshop to throw my own hat into this (incredibly niche but fun-looking) ring.

Not to be conceited, but its kinda funny to see my taping reports so blatantly ripoffed like this. :p

Alas, Dallas feels like he is on the cusp of a gaint heel turn but hasn't turned just yet. I find this funny considering how fast they usually turn everyone else without any build up.
As for the heels, it felt more to me like the two teams working together for a common goal at that moment. I don't see them joining up. Especially since they both consist of tag teams vying for the belts.

i remember making fun of bo dallas when someone posted some florida rookies next in line back in 2011

I did! I was just lazy and linked to it instead of spoiler tagging it and putting it in my post :p.
You got a link for that? I can't find results anywhere.
For anyone interested, he's a spoiler report I did for the taping:
http://www.pwinsider.com/article.php?id=77764&p=1

Alas, I don't really mind or anything. I simply laughed when I scrolled down and initially thought it was my write up, only to notice it was a reworded version of it instead.
