Top 3 indie wrestlers you would like to see in the WWE

[HipHopMadMan]

Who is your favorite indie wrestler's who u would like to see in the WWE?

Only guys in the indy's count even if they were in the WWE before. So guys like Shelton Benajamin or Charlie Has would count too not only new guys. My top three guys for this would be,

1. Colt Cabana - He is a funny man who can wrestle and is no joke. He can do a good feud with CM Punk or Triiple H if they use him right and not as a joke when he was Scotty Goldman.

2. Chris Hero - Thid huy is just plain amazing and under rated. He can do it all imo. A chris Hero HHH or Cena feud would be gold.

No-one from fucking OCW though, because it is the single worst organization I have ever seen in my life. You know like STD's get that itching feeling sometimes? I know it all too well due to my constant battles with crabs, but watching OCW is actually more annoying. I would command you to avoid it at all costs and I know what I'm talking about, because I just brought up 2 of the most popular indie wrestlers ever. Everyone in OCW has Hep B and the girls hate us which is why we bought a wrestling ring and steroids. Furthermore, fuck them all.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Not these guys again.

[Anybody Thrilla]

There's this dude named Erik Slade who is really good. Probably the best wrestler in the world because he said so.

This shit was funny at first, but it has been beaten into the ground. I can no longer find humor even in the OCW Chairman.

Thank you TPWW, you ruined a great joke.

[Razzamajazz]

oc dub oc dub

[mike adamle]

Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, & El Generico.

[Innovator]

You guys wrestle with no ropes. You need to be able to run the ropes for an hour without water for me to take you seriously.

[Razzamajazz]

5'2 98 lbs psycho is a future wwe hall of famer, that is as soon as he graduates high school

[Waylander]

Ocoee? I don't even know how to pronounce it.

As for the question, and off the top of my head, I'd say:
Chris Hero
Claudio Castagnoli (sp?)
Samoa Joe

[St. Jimmy]

Indie guys I'd want to be in WWE? Anyone over 6 foot, in great physical condition, and willing to wrestle slower and shorter matches. That's the kind of guy that gets a comfortable job in WWE.

[Triple Naitch]

Gotta give him creativity points this time.

[Innovator]

Too broad Jimmy. I want to see guys with short hair, six pack, and can make crazy faces if needed.

[Rammsteinmad]

I look forward to seeing one of Shawn Dreheim's technical exhibitions in the WWE.

[Rammsteinmad]

Also, may as well answer the thread:

1. Charlie Haas
2. Shelton Benjamin
3. Dave Brookside

[Gertner]

OCW has just changed my opinion of indy wrestling.

[FourFifty]

Brian Danielson
Matt Sydal
Joe Henning

[Haze]

3. Shawn Draheim - This guy isnt well known but he says he is the greatest wrestler alive which u may laugh at until you see his matches then u wiill know he has a point. Now u may not have seen Shawn Draheim because he wrestles for a small Florida indie called OCW (Ocoee Championship wrestling ...

http://ocoeechampionshipwrestling.webs.com/ocwroster.htm

But he is the stuff if ya know what I mean. Shawn could have a great feud with John Cena or Randy Orton imo. Shawn is a good face but also a grate heel.

Seriously with this noise?

[CSL]

Also, may as well answer the thread:

1. Charlie Haas
2. Shelton Benjamin
3. Dave Brookside

I'd like to think Dave Brookside is some kind of Dave Batista/Robbie Brookside hybrid, Batista bombing guys whilst taunting them in a scouse accent then stealing your missus and your car at the same time

[Haze]

I would venture a guess that HipHopMadMan is either Shawn Draheim, or his brother Jared "MagicMan" Draheim

[Rammsteinmad]

I'd like to think Dave Brookside is some kind of Dave Batista/Robbie Brookside hybrid, Batista bombing guys whilst taunting them in a scouse accent then stealing your missus and your car at the same time

Dave Brookside is my wrestling name. :|

[CSL]

If you aren't a Dave Batista/Robbie Brookside hybrid, Batista bombing guys whilst taunting them in a scouse accent then stealing their missus and car at the same time, you're missing out on guaranteed money

[Nervous Ferret]

The Golden Cellar

[Rammsteinmad]

The problem I have is stealing cars and women at the same time. It's tricky business.

[CSL]

pfffft, Iginfest will show you how

[Seth82]

The Briscoe Brothers
Davey Richards
Eddie Edwards

[Rammsteinmad]

pfffft, Iginfest will show you how

Urgh, can't stand Irish people.

[edyhdrawde]

Claudio, Pac and I don't know if this counts as indy, but KENTA.

[Lock Jaw]

I think Jose Antonio could have an epic feud with John Cena.

[Indifferent Clox]

My wrestling name is John carico now. And I'm in a faction called the book of David. I'm undefeated since going heel

[CSL]

Shawn Draheim will eat you alive

[Indifferent Clox]

Briscoes
American wolves

Evan turner

[CSL]

[Seth82]

sorry but it's just a tad annoying knowing everytime ROH or anything Indy is brought up you just know he's gonna shit all over it

[Lock Jaw]

I think he does it to such an extent only to counter those who jizz all over it whenever ROH or anything Indy is brought up.

[Th3R0CKSays]

The Kings of Wrestling
The American Wolves
Hollywood's own Joey Ryan
A-Double Austin Aires

[CSL]

that's 6

It's like rain on your wedding day.
It's a free ride when you've already paid.

That's unfortunate goddamn it. The only thing ironic about that song is it's title...

Anywho.

Joey Ryan would be great in WWE too. Him and Rhett Titus as a team would be amazing, and would bring some serious sleaze into the WWE.

Also, for the sake of arguing, Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards would never make it in the WWE. Edwards is a poor man's Daniel Bryan, and if Bryan can't get over, Edwards never will. Davey is also pretty small and generic looking himself. He'd have a better chance than Edwards, but he'd have to revamp half his moveset.

Nobody. Indy wrestling sucks. Nobody wants to see vanilla midgets mat wrestle.

Out of curiosity, Gertner - and this is a legitimate question - where do you think guys come from before WWE signs them?

[dhellova guy]

1. Rammsteinmad
2. Who cares?

[Gertner]

Out of curiosity, Gertner - and this is a legitimate question - where do you think guys come from before WWE signs them?

bodybuilding shows, tryouts, amateur wrestlers, swimsuit competitions(women) and a few Indy guys who have size and personality(which is like 3% of them).

[What Would Kevin Do?]

bodybuilding shows, tryouts, amateur wrestlers, swimsuit competitions(women) and a few Indy guys who have size and personality(which is like 3% of them).

Honestly, he's pretty much right. If you look at the bigger indy feds, ROH, PWG, Chikara, etc, the ones that focus on good in ring competition, fewer of those guys end up in WWE than the guys from some random tiny indy place. And it's because it's easier to get into WWE based on looks than it is talent.

Eric Bischoff said back in the day that it'd be easier to train actors to wrestle, and he's not far off. A guy like Randy Orton would have never made it in ROH. A guy like Eddie Edwards will never make it in WWE. ROH cares about ability, WWE cares about marketability. Occasionally you get guys like Punk, who have "it" and make it from a quality indy fed to the big time. Those guys are few and far between. I mean, think about it, look at the guys you see on NXT? Where did half of them come from? They didn't come from indy feds that focus on "work rate."

It's not a shot at ROH either, they're just two different beasts. Very few guys in ROH right now could cut it in WWE. There are some, but not many.

[Rammsteinmad]

2. Who cares?

You are one hell of a guy. :love:

[Indifferent Clox]

Dark city fight club

[Anybody Thrilla]

also my finisher is a mother tucking senton from the top.

For some advice from somebody who has no actual business giving it, let me just say that such a flashy finisher for a heel works against the ingrained dynamic of wrestling. Heels are supposed to attract "BOOOOOO", not "OOOOOOOOOH!". It's great that you can do something so athletic, but I feel a more dastardly, mat-based finisher would be better for you. Cheers bro.

[Gertner]

How about the "Artistic Combat" for your finisher? A series of Liturgical dances followed by a school boy?

[Rammsteinmad]

Lol L L Cool Gertner not letting that 'Artistic Combat' thing go. :lol:

[Gertner]

Lol is was the most absurd thing I've ever read.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Didn't realise LL Cool G was Gertner til this thread :-\

[Jordan]

Clox to WWE could be the next Colin Delaney

[Vastardikai]

The Colony :shifty:

Seriously...
1. Brodie Lee
2. Delirious
3. Sonjay Dutt

[Rammsteinmad]

The Colony :shifty:

Would be awesome. :cool:

[Lock Jaw]

Sonjay Dutt should definitely have a job. Wish he was in Jinder Mahal's place right now.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Sonjay Dutt should definitely have a job. Wish he was in Jinder Mahal's place right now.

It won't ever happen. He and Khali's sister are just friends.
