Nashvember Wrasslin' |OT| Big Daddy Cool's Big Sexy Diesel-Powered Month
what?
Ain't no shame for #11.
They booked Kurt Angle as a straight babyface and people booed him because that type of face wasn't popular at the time. Difference was when the had competition they had to make use of the talent they had so then they booked him as a heel and he got over.
Reigns is designed to be the next John Cena. A performer they can take to board meetings and bring to corporate partners that won't embarrass them if they decide to partner up with the WWE.
As long as Roman Reigns is featured in corporate partnership marketing material he will never turn.
Have you ever laced up a pair of boots, son?
Their main authority figures are heels on the show but go do stuff for positive PR off the air. If the money was in turning him, it would happen (theoretically)

Heels arguably get more mic time than the faces. Turn Roman heel and....well you know where I'm getting at.
He seems like a paul heyman guy, once paul turns on brock.

Strange that the only wrestler we dedicate a month to is one who's so appallingly mediocre
Should've been Terry Funkvember.
Plywood posited the GOOD point, a really good point, that if we give the scrubs Nashvember, we'll never have to do it again. Ever.
I figured he's right. Enjoy it while it's here. Nash ain't shit.
I never had an issue. It's not my fault.
This means nothing, I am just a wrasslegaf poster like all the boys in the back here
Wrong, I'm just a dude posting in a nerd forum

They have the McMahon exception in that management doesn't really care how they appear on tv as long as they look like they are important. None of the talent can be that way. I mean they may send Seth to do some PR but he isn't a focus for a media campaign like PG Cena and survey group approved Roman Reigns.
If this Roman came out today he would be twice as over.

Reigns doesn't have the kind of charisma it takes to do what Cena does.
Boo Dallas on the other hand? This week's Smackdown was a star-making performance for him and I think we've only just seen the beginning.

99.9% of wrestlers lack the charisma, work ethic, and on-the-fly speaking ability it takes to do what Cena does. And that's a shoot.

I'm easy to please.
I say this because I'm actually enjoying WWE 2k16. I bought the accelerator and treating this as some toybox for all my wrassling figures.
Imagination's a strong thing.

Yup. Cena is amazing. And he can turn ANY crowd.

Maybe they should push the guy who comes close to Cena
ehh I disagree. I think Cena'a biggest asset is that he knows how to work management and he has the trust of Vince because of his muscles and his work ethic with not taking days off.
I bet Cena for those US open challenge had no script and the matches were planned by him and the talent he was trying to make look good.
Everyone else is scripted to a tee where as Cena can call out the girl with cancer in the front row like in his feud with Owens.
Boss must really be going senile as this is the second OFFICIAL Nashvember and the fourth overall.

They lost me forever with him when he had a hot dog cart or some shit and they were all "he's the modern day Roddy Piper!" Piper wasn't fucking with no hotdogs, he was laying fuckers out with coconuts and bodyslamming boxers.

Friends, pls.
Reigns is fine as a face. More importantly, I expect Cena to finally turn heel when Reigns gets that position on the throne. We'll finally see a different side to Cena. For about six weeks before he turns face again. But anything to keep Roman looking like the best thing since The Rock is fine by me.
Because... I...

Dives to the outside are one of the most overused things in all branches of pro wrestling a the moment. So it takes a lot to stand out. I think these three are the absolute best looking/smoothest.

Cuerno/Fantasma's Sucidie Dive
La Sombra's Tope Con Hilo

Don't get me wrong. Cena is a talented main event wrestling talent that can win over every crowd. I just think that more guys could do that if they were given the chance.
Sandow got that stunt double gimmick over that most guys couldn't.

Not sure if its been posted (although I'm sure Bootaay did last topic) but Nakamura has said on a radio show that if he beats Anderson at Power Struggle, he's issuing an open challenge for the IC belt at WK10. While rumors are he's facing AJ it still hasn't been confirmed, but I really can't see anyone else getting the shot, plus with Tanahashi/Okada again being the main event NJPW will need a real high-profile bout as the semi-main for the IC belt in order to fill the Tokyo Dome.
It's too much random crap for an otherwise beautiful person.
Keep the hair, and obviously the tats, tone down the makeup and go for a simple black outfit.
Steve was going to gloat about Jesse throwing Shane out of the ring. And then wham. I look like a dumb ass.
Good guy HHH to the rescue!
HHH should have left him there.
"You didn't want to put me over so now you can't get up and over. I'm HHH and only I'm over."
It's true, it's true! She's like the guy who wears the ten extra pieces of flair!

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
you realize the entire roster does the charity stuff except Rollins and Owens
I think Rollins has done some charity stuff.

Ospreay's springboard SSP is smooth as fuck, probably the best I've seen since Ricochet stopped doing it.
Also, I still say AJ/Nak is too big of a match to give away unadvertised as an open challenge - wouldn't be surprised if it was Shiozaki who challenges him. Go talked about his history with Okada and going after "the IWGP" but wouldn't be led on which IWGP belt he was talking about.

I'm as disgusted as you are right now. Fuck.
Hey, don't get hot about it. Even Big Daddy Cool forgets the hair dye from time to time. It happens.

You get a chance to win over the crowd every chance you go out there. Some guys have it and some guys don't. I don't think Sandow is bad at playing to a crowd, but I don't think he's on the level of Cena at controlling one.
Nashune and Nashuly are my favorite months of the year. They sound like Phantasy Star spells.
