Wow, Eddie Kingston? Didn't expect that one unless they got Mia Yim first and wanted to do her a favor for whatever reason.

i think it's good to use outside guys in a tournament. it adds flavor and a sense of prestige. japanese promotions do it all the time.

If they ever actually used managers Kingston would be a great pick up. But beyond that as much as I used to really enjoy his work, not so much.

i think she's like Bayley where she's very pretty by any sane standard but not necessarily by WWE's. i'd say they wouldn't hire another woman like that while they already have Bayley, but since she's on the main roster now i guess Nicole has a shot.

Well if looks were ever gonna hurt Savoy, she better praise god she's in a group with Lovelace and Baszler

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

Most of the BJW guys are in the same boat as Drake Younger and are all pretty wonderful people that I hope can get signed to WWE, even as trainers or referees, and be able to retire without hurting themselves even further.

Nikkan Lee is gonna be a referee I guess? She wrestles a tiny bit but she's never done it for a living.

Nikkan Lee is the one having the try out as a ref. I know they've been wanting to find a female ref for a while and it's almost certain they'll be trying out some more people at the next two tryouts.

:pray: Please please let Itami and Ibushi fight each other after they lose in the tournament. There's like no other time that match could possibly happen otherwise, and outside of NOAH tag matches I don't think it's ever happened before. If not for the Itami/Aries feud that could easily be a Takeover bout.

NXT is suffering from having its roster decimated. You lost the four horse women (plus Alexa and Nia), you lost Sami, Owens, Neville, Finn, Enzo and Cass, I guess Gargano and Ciampa, probably Joe in the near future

The specials are absolutely awesome but there's not too much top talent to bring me (and I'm sure others) in for the weeklies anymore.
It's almost like NXT is a developmental show featuring new up and coming wrestlers.

(aside from big indie stars surrounding the titles, anyway)

She's really small, isn't she? I guess that didn't really stop them from signing Alexa Bliss or Nikki Storm, so maybe that matters less for women.
