Him or Leo Kruger probably.

I think Graves is a little too new to be thrown into the Rumble. He's only just started to develop his character in the last two or three episodes of NXT.

If it's Bo Dallas I hope he just gets immediately tossed out by Big Show in a Bushwhacker Luke spot.

Leo kruger is worlds ahead of where he was since his gimmick change. He had probably the best promo out of all of them.

The guy is great. He needs to run with the concept of basically being Kraven the Hunter and start wearing a lion pelt scarf.

If he's hunting big game in WWE, perhaps he could make a leisure suit out of the Great Khali.

I feel like Big E should be staring down the ref and making him do the 5 count instead of doing it himself. Or has he already done this and I missed it, since I'm just now getting into NXT?

I've sadly never seen him do that, but when he gets all frustrated at the ref only going to 3 it drives the crowd into a god drat frenzy so I'm cool with it as it is.

In NXT, he'd keep the pin on and shout to the ref to count the extra two, and keep the pin going until he did.

He should retire Rey Mysterio and take his mask, put a headdress of sorts on the mask, and wear around the mask like Kraven the Hunter. Then hunt down cruiserweights.

Nah, I'd rather seem him hunting superheavies.

Because that's the big game :black101:

Until he hits Mark, of course. Then Mark just mangles him. As he should.

This brings to mind an image of Leo Kruger stalking the Great Khali like a predator, and I like it.

This week's episode the ref straight-up ended the match, so E hit his finisher two more times with a self-counted 5 on each.

Crowd went loving bonkers for it. He needs to keep that for when he splinters away from Ziggler, it's just Too Good.

Daniel Bryan is unsurprisingly very good on commentary. SMS is a pretty fun show. Also stupid Josh Matthews not believing that The Dazzler never did a 100 revolution airplane spin.

If you're going to advertise a 100 spin airplane spin then you should drat well link to one. False advertising. :colbert:

With pleasure. For the non-airport dwelling people's benefit, here's the match listing with my usual random thoughts.

The semi-finals of the tag tournament currently contain the Wyatt Family and Team Judo Flip in case you've forgotten.

Tag-Team Tournament round 1
Say It To AMERICA (Alex Riley and Derrick Bateman) vs Cruel and Unusual Punishment (Kassius Ohno and Leo Kruger)
Sakamoto (!) vs Mason Ryan (yes, really)
Aksana vs Paige
Tag-Team Tournament round 1
Bo Dallas and Michael McGillycutty vs Primo and Epico

A-Ry actually gets chants which amazes me, but then this is the NXT Arena.
Derrick Bateman continues to have a vast well of charisma and is a lot of fun to watch.
Good match, Kruger and Ohno are great, Bateman is great and A-Ry is kept out of the way though he does get in his kick-rear end spinebuster.
Mason Ryan has apparently been given Chris Masters' gimmick. He's still Mason Ryan.
GOOD GOD Paige drat near took the freaking roof off when she came out!
Oh right, Valentine's Day means an inevitable secret admirer storyline.

So the tournament semi finals are set.
Kruger and Ohno vs Neville and Gray
Harper and Rowan vs Dallas and McGillycutty
