Nigel McGuiness signs with WWE
 
That is all

Fignuts 09-04-2009 12:32 PM

WHAT

Skippord 09-04-2009 12:36 PM

if that's true I figured it would happen

kareru 09-04-2009 12:38 PM

so the wwe are trying to gather up all of the talent from roh?

doesn't mean that they will use them properly , chances are we are going to see cena/hhh/orton in the main even for a number of years whilst the hardworking mid/upper mid carders are going to work there asses off to keep the company afloat

CSL 09-04-2009 12:52 PM

Excellent. I think he has a much better upside than Danielson

The only thing he has going against him right now is how injury prone he's been. He definitely deserves this opportunity though.

Loose Cannon 09-04-2009 01:42 PM

I wonder if some of you would have a heart attack if the WWE formed an ROH stable to take over the shows.

Loose Cannon 09-04-2009 02:01 PM

what if CM Punk, Danielson and Nigel started beating down Vince in the middle of a WWE ring?

blake639raw 09-04-2009 02:01 PM

That would be a stupid ass idea. But really, I think McGuinness has a lot of potential upside, moreso that Dragon really. He's got the size, the look, can work the stick, and can work better than most of the young guys in WWE.

Lock Jaw 09-04-2009 02:02 PM

I guess they figured CM Punk was pretty successful.

Loose Cannon 09-04-2009 02:03 PM

Vince is going to make Nigel his door man

Are you just trying to rile up the ROH fans, or are you being serious?

Evil Vito 09-04-2009 02:08 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Danielson and McGuinness are both really fucking good in the ring...but I really have a hard time seeing success anywhere but ECW. If they went to the other two shows they'd just be used as talented jobbers ala Charlie Haas.</font>

Why would that rile up ROH fans? That's a better spot than anybody there currently has.

I don't think Danielson can make it 'all the way'. But McGuinness can go as far as they let him. He has the talent, the mic skills and a decent look. Only thing that could be held against him is size and fondness of lariating people's heads off. CM Punk is their World Heavyweight champion atm though so who knows.

both :)


seriously, I don't see the WWE using them the way the ROH fans are going to want them to be used. I hope they put them over and just keep thier ROH characters, but I don't think it will happen

Looking at it realistically, Dragon don't have much of a character aside from being a great wrestler, and don't have much size. McGuinness has all the tools the WWE looks for in a wrestler. I"m not saying it's a guarantee they'll use him right, but there's always a chance. Nobody really gave Punk a chance, and look where he's at. Ideally, I would love to see Dragon & McGuinness bring their feud to ECW, where they could compete for Regal's attention. Regal and their crew could beat down Danielson, and McGuinness could join Regal's little group. Anyway, we'll just wait and see I guess.

Nigel has a better look, and is better on the mic.

Claudio is next. Or Kenny King.

blake639raw 09-04-2009 02:34 PM

Yeah, Kenny King is ready for tv. He should have won Tough Enough, not Maven.

kareru 09-04-2009 02:34 PM

i hate the fact that nigel is a cockney

he makes a fantastic heel though

maven match:

drop kick

drop kick
pin

Lock Jaw 09-04-2009 02:37 PM

Maven got good near the end of his run.

blake639raw 09-04-2009 02:38 PM

Maven was alright, but Kenny King is the man. He's like Shelton Benjamin with charisma and mic ability.

What Would Kevin Do? 09-04-2009 02:41 PM

Let Danielson and Nigel have 15 minutes on Superstars, and they'll be fine.

Yeah, Danielson is on the small side, but look at the roster these days. Punk is World Champ, Nigel is the same size as him, and Danielson is 3 inches shorter. If Punk can have realistic matches with Undertaker, Orton, Edge, etc, there's no reason to think that Nigel, and in theory, Danielson can't.

Now whether that'll happen is a different story. Hopefully Nigel has a cocky Brit character. No fucking "I hate America, I love England" shit, just let him go out and be a cocky asshole.

Danielson... I still don't know what they're going to do with him... Dye his hair orange and make him Sheamus' brother?

kareru 09-04-2009 02:42 PM

fun fact: maven is in czw now

What Would Kevin Do? 09-04-2009 02:42 PM

They should ditch Abraham Washington's gimmick and give it to Kenny King.

Supreme Olajuwon 09-04-2009 02:42 PM

Sucks he won't be able to use the Tower of London in WWE.

However, I think he could get over huge with the London Dungeon. Complicated finishers have a hard time getting over but that move is simple and looks really painful.

yeah that angle of hating america if you are from another country is so overdone

Exactly, 2 things that are more important than ability for Vince. And McGuinness is in Danielson's league in terms of ability.

lol a mate of mine said pretty much the exact same thing to me last week

As for the Tough Enough comments, Kenny King was on season 2. Won by Linda Miles/Shaniqua and Jackie Gayda. Making it even worse.

Why not? It's not that dangerous. If anything he'll have a problem because it's a cutterish/rko type move.

He could probably do his rebound lariat too. Not necessarily as a finisher, but I'm sure WWE would eat it up since they love show-boaty/flashy moves (see: Kofi's legdrop, MVP's ballin' elbow, Morrison's standing shoot star, etc)

What Would Kevin Do? 09-04-2009 02:44 PM

No, like a legitimate thing... I swear I saw him in a commercial for it... And he's fat.

Supreme Olajuwon 09-04-2009 02:45 PM

I meant he can't do it because it's a more devastating looking version of the RKO.

Silly. :p

I wonder if he gets into debates on the show, but then ends each one with "Oh yeah? Well I eliminated The Undertaker at Royal Rumble 2002!"
