I don’t think that many people saw him in ECW. He had the rep with a certain segment of the audience, but RVD’s cool factor is what really got him, I think (even though he didn’t appeal to me personally).

Now this is where you're re-writing history. He was the most over guy in the company in 01 and had been the hottest act in the business in the eyes of everyone who knew who he was since 97. His 01 wwf run was electric and his matches were creative and exciting. The cut him off by the balls and killed him completely because he was an ecw guy. He stayed over because everyone knew how good he was even if he wasnt good right then.

Was Lance Storm doing that on purpose? It’s a pretty clever way to get the ECW fans to turn on you if you want to be a heel. I don’t agree with the psychology of throwing a weak chair shot unless you’re supposed to be ineffective though.

I don’t know why, but it just register with me that Bret Hart worked that much for WWE. Just fucking weird. Everything seemed so spaced apart back then, but 2010 was only 3 years after Chris Benoit. We’re almost as far removed from 2010 as 2010 was from 1997.

Imagine being Heath Slater and how surreal it must have been working Bret at Madison Square Garden. When’s that guy getting out of Impact Wrestling and taking his throne back in WWE?

If it was a work why would he need to sprint out of the building and hop into a running car? His own actions go completely against the it was a work admission.

Lol what? I've seen countless angles in wrestling where someone goes running out the arena afterwards. That's part of selling it as real lol

If it spills outside the arena it is officially a shoot.

Hmmm, dunno if it has anything to do with Hebner deciding to say the screwjob was a work, but Bret was also at the same event speaking and went on a tirade about how Goldberg shouldn't be in the HoF and WWE needs to remove him.

Wish Bret and Punk were both from the same era and went against each other in a battle of the bitter.

I’m a fan of Bret’s. I don’t even think of him as bitter. It’s a reductive way of avoiding his criticisms of wrestling, as it is with Punk — or anyone dismissed with it. But he really needs to back off on Goldberg imo. Was Goldberg the most pristine worker in 1999? No. But he is one of wrestling’s few megastars. He’s put the asses in the seats and is still an attraction to this day.

Owen broke someone’s neck in the ring. Austin broke someone’s neck in the ring. Goldberg fucked up a spot. It sucks. But the crusade against him 25 years later is a bit much.

That sucks so much. I have been listening to the podcast at night after work and he is always mentioning him and always had a big smile when he was talking about him. You could tell he was proud of him.

You could also tell, in other moments, how upset he still was over Hall’s death. I can’t imagine what he is going through.

Ladder match and triple threat match are def worth watching. I liked Shawn Michaels comments on being open to feedback, they had 6 matches instead of 5 and he said he thought it overlong.

Was impressed with all in the ladder match , wonder if it will be someone known who is in the person in the red hoodie (Nikki Cross? is a guess for me).

I don’t see the point in putting anyone with Bray Wyatt. It’s just going to sink more careers. Have him do his own self-contained thing off on his own somewhere. Has there even been any confirmation of him putting together a faction, or is this just dirt sheer speculation?

Re Lacey Evans: Stick to realism as close as possible. She’s a former marine who cheats to win matches. It’s not a stretch to think of herself trying to present herself as a role model. That’s Bayley’s thing. Stick her in Damage Control.

True, but KENTA was about one of the most irrelevant people on the roster at the time, unlike shinsuke who is firmly an upper midcard talent. Additionaly, there was more going on there than just allowing kenta to work rhe show. It was part of bigger plans to work with noah and potentially turn it into an nxt japan

Bad take.

Pretty predictable. Nakamura was a fine IC Champion, but he’s held the belt for ages and has mainly been teaming with Boogs. I can see them being the team that eventually unseats The Usos, probably at Mania.

I’m not even sure Zayn holds the belt for that long. I can see Knoxville screwing him out of it. I can see Cesaro getting a little run with it, maybe defending it against Sheamus at Mania.

I didn’t realize we were pretending to be marks?

Nakamura has been protected really well by the company.

He’s knocked off challengers in contenders matches and tag team matches. He also defeated Damian Priest in a champion vs. champion match at Survivor Series (albeit by DQ). Most of his defenses as champion happen on house shows. He successfully defended the title 12 times.

Conversely, in Japan Nakamura’s longest IC Title reign was 313 days and it shared his most defenses in a single reign with 8. He once held the belt for 224 days and defended it 3 times.

Lol, this reminds me of when people used to bitch about how shit Lesnar was as champion because he was never around and never defended the belt. He was actually defending it more frequently than Okada was as IWGP Champion in Japan, which is of course a darling doing darling things in a darling promotion.

Perspective is important. Maybe the average fan sees Nakamura being featured pretty constantly on television and is counting the times he doesn’t defend the belt and thinking “This is damn bullshit!” before throwing their beer can at the TV and swearing off wrestling forever. But maybe some are looking at him being presented in a good light (most of the time anyway) and are getting the impression that he must be a pretty good wrestler.

The secondary belts have been treated way better than they have been in the past. That’s exactly my point. Secondary champions like Nakamura, Priest, Lashley, Rollins, Zayn and Styles have been presented as people you should care about. How many times they defend their belts is trivia for hardcore nerds. Nakamura won the IC Title when he was King Nakamura — the very concept of which meant he beat the King of the Ring for their crown. Is it a silly gimmick? Yes. But he has been featured and made to look good while being champion.

The internet is going to whinge about how nothing matters anymore like Nakamura going through Corbin, Moss, Mahal and Holland every week is some magic recipe to make people care. It’s people on the internet thinking their preference is what other people want to see.

Sepholio
10-30-2022, 06:23 PM
Oh man a bunch of Noid novellas explaining it all. How could I ever have been so wrong?

I take it back, Nakamura is the most protected/well used man in all of sports entertainment. Can't believe I forgot the awesome boogs team and their amazing tag team title run after destroying the Usos. And while he may not have gotten that IC title reign, Cesaro got to be the super awesome RoH (totally not dead company) champion for a month. I apologize for my transgressions. Please forgive me XL.

You are a quick learner Sepholio. I went back and forth with Mr. Nerfect over Nak’s awful IC title reign before I finally understood that it was not the reign that was awful, but it’s that I was being an awful fan.

I always figured Nakamura would get a retirement in Japan, at the very least. Vince seemed to respect the hell out of him.

Mr. Nerfect
10-31-2022, 03:43 AM
Oh man a bunch of Noid novellas explaining it all. How could I ever have been so wrong?

I take it back, Nakamura is the most protected/well used man in all of sports entertainment. Can't believe I forgot the awesome boogs team and their amazing tag team title run after destroying the Usos. And while he may not have gotten that IC title reign, Cesaro got to be the super awesome RoH (totally not dead company) champion for a month. I apologize for my transgressions. Please forgive me XL.

Ah yes, the dramatic hyperbole to try and drown out the point. Nakamura has been treated relatively well by the company. He’s no doubt on good money and has had a fairly protected spot.

If I were New Japan, I would do a tournament for a new NEVER Openweight Champion. Hiroshi Tanahashi wins. He can beat Hikuleo somewhere in the tournament. Come Wrestle Kingdom, Karl Anderson has shown up and is looking for the belt he never lost. At the same time, Hikuleo has been trying to prove he can beat Tanahashi. WK is a three-way for the belt. Not too overpowering, but something with story.

Tanahashi retains the belt. A Raw soon after he has a moment with AJ Styles. Tanahashi vs. Styles for the NEVER Openweight Championship at Elimination Chamber. Tanahashi wins the battle of the best hair, and defends his belt against the former Bullet Club leader in the Saudi show his underling used to disrespect it.

Let's also acknowledge Gerwitz is now consulting for WWE and has just put out an interview that could be considered a tease for The Rock at Mania this year. They do work together on Young Rock you know, so his opinion should have some value.

WWE is really building momentum for the first time (creatively) in YEARS. For me it's still too much to watch, to sit for three hours to enjoy Raw is really impossible. Smackdown is great in highlights but I can't sit through the time required to really invest.

But still, we feel the momentum and I would suppose that a lot of kid fans do watch 5+ hours of WWE weekly no problem.

I think WWE's momentum is going to build up to the point of securing the Rock in the main event of Mania and will also be some kind of huge co-promotion/sponorship with the XFL, to help get that brand's name out there again in a massive way on Peacock with all their subs that will view Mania.
