Yeah, you can cross that in about 20 seconds. I think a blind tortoise that's missing a leg could cross that in less than 20 minutes. I_Abibde posted... The current state of the WWE almost makes me nostalgic for the WCW. ... Almost. AEW should be a breath of fresh air when it comes. Even if it's absolutely terrible it'll still wind up being better than the WWE has managed to be over the last few years. NXT is a different story, but NXT is barely connected to WWE at all at this point, at least creatively speaking. It's a sad state of affairs when most people are basically hoping and praying their NXT favorites never get called up to the main roster, because it's effectively a 100% kiss of death that ruins them forever. Broken_Zeus posted... Given his in-ring work, that might be for the best >_> I always preferred him as a personality. They barely allow him to have one. He's better than some, but not enough to really care about. Basically, if you're a brilliant technical wrestler or incredibly athletic gymnast who can flip across the ring (and get hugely over because of it), the WWE shuts you down, forces you to wrestle their "safe" house style, and more or less erase everything unique about you. If you have a brilliant personality and get over by sheer force of charisma, the WWE brings you in and doesn't let you show that in any way, turning you into a cardboard persona with wooden line delivery until no one cares about you and you inspire nothing but apathy. SPEAKING of which... Broken_Zeus posted... O snap, was that EC3 next to him? Is EC3 back in the WWE? Are they actually going to do something with EC3 this time? It was - EC3 was Drake/Spud's Best Man at his wedding (and it was his real, actual wedding, not a kayfabe one). But EC3's another example of how WWE works - they basically brought EC3 in, who got over in TNA/Impact through sheer force of personality and being gold on the mic, and the first thing they did was give him a gimmick where he didn't talk for about a month. He's been there for four months now, and he's probably said fewer words all told than I've written in this paragraph. And Vince has decided to arbitrarily hate him for no good reason, so this will never change and he'll be treated like shit forever unless he leaves. It's gotten so bad that people have basically been posting memes about him being borderline suicidal, or just having had his love for wrestling crushed out of him entirely. And he's pretty much started Tweeting stuff on Twitter now like "Every time I make you laugh, I suffer more inside", or replying to one of Cena's boilerplate "Follow your dreams, kids!" tweets with "Dreams can become nightmares". --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:923846488] in PotdMon: N...
