Board 8 > All-Purpose Wrestling Topic 194: Ultimate X. Free TV. 24 Hours Of Hype.

(+) Yeah! (+)

TNA you're making me worried again.

But on the other hand JOE PARK, ESQUIRE owns all the bones.

Tossing away a gimmick match on free TV with absolutely zero build or purpose is very Russonian of them.

But I can cut them some slack because they did great on Sunday and they're making good tweaks to the BFG Series.

Not at all. WWE used the likes of those guys on the Season Six tapings.

EDIT: And the rumor mill says that they can't go on a firing spree this year because of Linda's political stance as a job creator.

Yeah, I'm expecting Aries vs. three losers (or maybe just one loser?) meant to show off the perils to hype up IMAGINE FOUR REAL TALENTS IN THIS MATCH AT ONCE!

But it's TNA so there's still that fear that the recent stuff is that annual period where it looks good before falling.

So I hear, but I still feel like that segment with Vince wandering around backstage reminds me too much of that segment where Swagger or somebody walked by a bunch of random people who were all released like a week later

So here's something odd.

In the parking lot at Albertsons today, there was a grey Honda Element and in its back window, written in shaving cream or something was RYBACK SUCKS.

Someone wanted ribs, but Ryback ate them all. AND STILL. WANTED. MORE.

Maybe the person who owns the car is named Ryan and after seeing Ryback on WWE thought it would be a cool nickname for him as well.

--
Thank you, Eddie Guerrero.
http://tinyurl.com/73jgc2r

Now, hang on. the shaving cream was applied to the outside window, right?

For a moment I thought the car owner creamed the inside of their rear window to emphasize their Ryback hate. And that would just be, like... a whole other echelon of hatred.

So with a new season of NXT finally upon us, I was thinking back to the original format NXT seasons and I realized that Season 3 probably ended up with the second-highest post-NXT success rate.

Season One
Daniel Bryan
Wade Barrett
Heath Slater
Justin Gabriel
Ryback
Darren Young
David Otunga
Michael Tarver

So stacked. Only Tarver bombed.

Season Two
Kaval
Alex Riley
Michael McGillicutty
Percy Watson
Eli Cottonwood
Titus O'Neil
Lucky Cannon
Husky Harris

Not a stellar success rate. McGillicutty was Tag Champ and A-Ry was high-profile for a short time but other than that everyone else either flamed out or is JUST NOW starting to come around.

Season Three
AJ
Kaitlyn
Naomi
Jaime
Maxine
Aksana

Everyone except Jaime went on to do SOMETHING at least. Maxine's a great Diva on the rise, Naomi is great as a dancer and even better as a worker, Kaitlyn is...goofy cute and Aksana pretty much has maximized her role. And obviously AJ who has risen to basically be the highest profile Diva in the entire company for the moment.

Season Four
Johnny Curtis
Brodus Clay
Jacob Novak
Derrick Bateman
Conor O'Brien
Byron Saxton

Ask me again in a year, this group (sans Novak and Bateman) could be something special.

If he keeps his Ascension gimmick, I would have more faith in him.

Yes. I just don't see Bateman ever putting it all together as a serious worker, and his comedy is okay but he'll never be Santino or anything.

And he's honestly too big to be a jobber.

Here's a Question.

With the internet and TV and all that we can analyze every angle and we can all play armchair booker of each and every feud and we predict so much that bookers sometimes try to swerve to smart fan.

Now obviously this couldn't happen in the "old" days but that got me thinking, what Great feuds of the past do you think with the technology we have now and the knowledge we all have about wrestling we would basically be downgrading.

Like would we rate a feud like the Freebirds vs the Von Erichs highly or not if it was presented to us now.

Oh here's an interesting bit:

I was at the supermarket today and they had an Amazing Spider-Man cereal to tie in with the movie. On the back was one of those dumb quizzes that they're always putting on kids' cereal. One of the questions was what's Spider-Man's secret identity, and all the choices were alliterative P names. One of the wrong answers?

Pat Patterson.
