All-Purpose News Thread Part II

[Scandale du Jour]

Becky was legit always over with the crowds since she become The Man. Crowds never turned on her

Yeah, she never got the Cena reaction on live shows. On the Internet, sure, there was some backlash.

 

[sabremike]

People always forget that her career arc was supposed to be like Nattie as a person on the roster/good hand and somehow she ended up as a gigantic star and the only woman in wrestling history who was at one point the biggest star in the entire industry (which at her peak she was). She had one of the most remarkable careers ever.

 

[BostonBob]

Becky talking on IG like she is retiring.

 

[Jussi]

I would not be surprised if she shows up at Survivor Series, alongside Charlotte and Bayley.

 

[sansabri]

first woman to legit be a draw in NA?

 

[Emperoreddy]

SRS saying WWE is under the impression that Becky is not retired and that she will be working with them again when she is ready

 

[Troublesome 85]

Report that Lucha Bros are heading to WWE

 

[TD Charlie]

Report that Lucha Bros are heading to WWE

That would be a good steal for WWE, who would then ruin them entirely. They'll be like Kalisto and...the other guy. Just good for a hurricanrana every now and then, and never amount to much more than that.

The tag team division continues to suck anyway.

They would definitely put constraints on what makes Fenix incredible and I get the feeling Penta just doesn’t give a f*** anymore lol

These people know they can do less and be just as over coming to WWE than they would if they were anywhere else where you have to have great matches consistently to remain noticed, and even then that's sketchy because they haven't been featured

 

[Troublesome 85]

AEW basically confirming it posting best of Lucha Bros

I think the Machine Guns and the Bros will do great in NXT

Just as over? I highly doubt that. They would be hot in NXT due to the crowds they bring in, but a main roster run from them would be the Lucha House Party part dos. I don't think they would be given anything of substance outside of NXT.

I don't know why that would happen, those guys are not a clown show

I know they're not, but does the WWE know that? Been a while since they put any focus on legitimate tag team wrestling

I feel good about Paul knowing who Penta and Rey Fenix are, as important, the crowds will too.

 

[Jussi]

Hardys had a meeting with WWE

Idk have no comment on it

I'm reading comments in my stream chat that it was about doing a documentary.

 

[GKJ]

Fightful saying that Penta and Fenix do not want to go to NXT.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Which they shouldn’t lol Penta take some kids head off.

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

Piledriving people head first into the mat while they're concussed and then when the ref misses the memo to count three, drop them on their already concussed head again?

SRS saying WWE is under the impression that Becky is not retired and that she will be working with them again when she is ready

Sounds like Becky's playing for as much money as possible without a travel schedule.

Just make a weekly show and the PPV. No house shows.

 

[GKJ]

Seth and Dakota both had injury write-offs, though Seth is still cleared to be wrestling.

Not sure what Dakota’s injury is

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

Cool story. And also, this is why I giggle about "Maybe Mercedes was just having a bad day at that fan event!" responses. She seems to have a lot of bad days.

This isn't an AEW vs. WWE post either. Both companies have their share of good characters and douche bags. Cool story for Dom. His deadbeat Dad taught him well... Outside maybe fashion.

 

[Sheppy]

Not surprised in the least about Dom. He seems like a great kid.

I mean, look at his father. You can argue Rey is one of the most genuine, nice human beings in Wrestling.

I heard some great things about Adam Cole too.

 

[sansabri]

dom somehow found a gimmick where he gets booed everywhere but everyone still adores him

 

[Blitzkrug]

Not only that, but he might be the first wrestler in recorded history to heel turn while still being heel given how dirty he did Rhea.

Generational shitbird, that kid is.
