Nice to see Adam Cole Bay Bay incorporating the Lashley physique. Welcome aboard fella.

Adam Cole looks like a create-a-wrestler where the person creating him was told that they had 60 seconds to create a complete wrestler and that's all they had time to do.

Kevin Owens doesn't have a statuesque figure, but he's consistently been one of the best things in all of WWE since hitting the main roster.

Body-shape doesn't matter if you make up for it by being damned good.

Yep. Your body shape ultimately doesn't mean shit if you have charisma, can talk, and can put on a good match.

And how here's a totally unrelated picture of one of the greatest wrestlers to ever live

100% agree

Always funny when wrestling marks body shame wrestlers, when like 90% of them are fat

I love the indies as much as anybody, but Cody R is the last person that needs defending. Dude is boring. He’s Mike Bennett with a famous daddy.

this past year has been great for seeing people as they really are and trimming my social media

They have probably read one at some point in their lives but chose to ignore it or pretend they know better

Which makes them even dumber

I had a good one two punch of "what the fuck" moments

1) after Aaron Rodgers got hurt someone tried to imply that it was justified karma for him being a liberal snowflake

2) someone tried arguing with me that being forced to stand for the flag/anthem is a good thing and we aren't like north korea in that regard because we'd never have concentration camps or anything like that

Sounds like some of my cousins who are no longer on my Facebook

Dusty's promo would've gone over a 1000 times better if he wasn't suited and booted. It just comes off as phony.

I can't be the only guy who thinks botchamania has nose dived in quality in 2017 right? I remember the WeaselMania video being short and excluding a majority of the great botches, then there was a post about how a better one would come out for Weaselmania but I don't think it ever did. And ever since it's been way less botch, more skit focused. No bueno
 
i'm in this camp as well because as the years have gone on I think we've actually seen the maximum of Cody's potential while Roman still has some untapped potential. Roman's also had better matches

I think it's more than that even. Cody was able to go to the Indies and not be tied to WWE branding but still manages to be a dullard.

Man, I feel that way since like 2014? Maybe earlier.

To be fair to Cody, I did find his Doctor Doom gimmick fantastic. Probably my favorite thing of his that he did. Especially since it immediately followed up the Dashing Cody gimmick.

I mean, he doesn't even really have the body of someone completely natty who spends time lifting despite the fact he's supposed to look tough without any clothes on for a living.

Like, Johnny Gargano is smaller than he is, but Gargano looks like he busts his ass in the gym.

Gargano is in crazy amazing shape right now. Last week's NXT in the main event, he was lookin' like a god there. Great physique.

Speaking of NXT, jesus fuck Lio Rush is shorter than I remember.

5'6" my ass, he's more like 5'2"

Plastic facemask at WrestleMania with that darker Smoke and Mirrors remix was best Cody.


He is, but sooner or later the bell rings


Even this guy over on the left works a better match and he ain't exactly no Daniel Bryan how ya doin

Cody >>>>>>>Enzo.... Enzo can't even just put his foot against someone's jaw and fall backwards convincingly

Cody has had his moments, but it seemed like he was primed to take the next big step as far as in ring work is concerned after he left WWE, and it just hasn't happened. He is doing a good job of getting his name out there though.

Apparently the 205 guys aren't getting royalties from their appearances on 2K18, they just gave them a flat fee and called it a day.
